REMINDER this is the 2nd Pt. Review of “The Eclipse Pt.2.” Read the previous part here:
So we continue toward the next scenes of today’s episode of Heroes (The Eclipse Part 2), where Noah is still chasing after Sylar and Elle. Unfortunately, Noah is getting called by Claire’s Adoptive Mom and they blabber about what to tell the doctors who are asking weird ass question about the condition of Claire. But obviously this whole scene was just another one those fillers type scenes that tried once again to reinforce what Noah is all about… He is a man who places his duty above himself and others… and by any method necessary. For crying out loud, haven’t we seen enough of this type of scenes over and over again? I’m pretty sure I picked up that Noah was a jerk dad during season 2, when he started getting all prissy over Claire and her flying boyfriend (Yea you probably forgot about him too…). Noah’s plot-line always rings the same, piss off Claire and do his usual thing. Great. Maybe I’m just over criticizing this? No friggin’ way.
The following scene after this, we see Matt Parkman and Daphne again. Matt goes all retarded like and spout out these lines of gold (paraphrasing) “How did this happen Daphne?…Your the fastest person in the world!” referring to her legs. This is quite possibly the most retarded thing anybody can say when you’ve witnessed a Japanese dude that squints his face to travel time and space, seen people fly like superman, and even he himself has the incredibly unbelievable power to read minds and convert people to his liking if he wishes… And he goes into disbelief that something like Cerebral Palsy can occur to someone. Anyhow, Daphne explains to Matt that it was the Eclipse that caused the return of her Cerebral Palsy. Not much else to say about that… except it’s extremely pitiful to watch her walk in those cursed crutches.
We are now taken to Suresh who messes the crap out of Fire-dummy-man’s face with a microscope, after they finished arguing at if Suresh was calling Fire-dummy-man stupid or not… which he is… But this only explains as to how the dude wasn’t unconscious after the first massive-wack on the head. The dude has one hard head. So fighting ensues and Suresh kills the poor Fire-dummy-dude… His run was short lived, but necessary in the sense of adding in the suspense of Heroes tag-line, “One of the Heroes will die tonight will it be “X” Hero???” Yea pretty stupid to intro in support characters and kill them off. It was even worse when they brought back Ali Larter after retardedly letting her Schizo character burn in a house. So as usual Suresh is feeling the horny toad frog, and he finally makes it out of the building to get some booty action! Finally, the dude only had to kill a man to do so, well deserved my bug-friend. Ah, but it’s never that easy… not in Heroes. Suresh gains his scales back as the Eclipse disperses. So he’s at the door of Maya’s place and knocks on it, but sadly leaves in a whimper due to his cursed hideousness.
Now to my favorite Squinter Hiro scene! We watch as Hiro and crew (Ando, Seth Green, and Garfield Dude) scavenge the old 9th Wonder comics for more information about what to do next. I really liked this scene because it was nice to see all the comic arts again. I’m a comic fanatic so these things are close to my heart. One thing that was outright hilarious that happened was when Garfield Dude (Breckin Meyer) figured the whole theory behind the Eclipse. It was so damn simplistic, that it was actually quite shocking… Any-who after Hiro hears this he runs off into the restroom to whine about not wanting to get old. And Seth Green throw verbal Bullsharts at Hiro to convince him to leave the terdbucket. It works. Coincidentally Garfield Dude find out a small detail that was not noticed before in one of the older 9th Wonder comics, that Hiro and Claire was meant to go back to the point Noah received the duty to adopt and protect Claire. Hiro does just that, and kicks serious ass. I’ll get into this later.
We are now back to Claire in the hospital. To cut this short, she dies, but because of the dispersing of the Eclipse she lives again. YAY! I knew she wasn’t going to die, I seriously did. Then directly after this we are taken back to the scene where Noah is STILL chasing Sylar and Elle. Which he does and he brutally owns the turd out of Sylar and slashes his throat and kills the dude… for once in the whole damn series. But we all know he comes back. Noah should of did all this mess back when he had Haitian as a partner… Why the hell wait so long…
It’s Haitian power TIME! Now that the Eclipse has passed by everyone including our Haitian gains their powers back. But prior to this I have to talk about Peter and how absolutely retarded he’s being in these scenes… It’s utterly so unrealistic for this dude to go Rambo on a bunch of dudes who’ve actually shot a gun before… Peter even at one point runs out of bullets… AND YOU KNOW WHAT HE DOES? The booger-head stands up, not even giving thought to the fact that the enemy could still be shooting at him, and surrenders. This particular scene bugged the snot out of me, it doesn’t make any realistic, coherent sense what-so-ever… WTF Heroes…WTF. Now back to the Haitian coolness. Nathan flies into Luke Cage (Haitian’s Brother) and crushes him into a automobile, but unfortunately for Nathan, Luke Cage got his powers going on also so he is completely unharmed. This would have to designate the first time Nathan actually did something offensive… and not being a complete puppet… that he still is. Anyways, the best part of this scene is where the Haitian is owning up on his Brother. He does his Voodoo thing onto his brother and totally mind-rape the nastiness straight out of him! And damn the Haitian looked totally bad-ass doing it… I see some seriously untapped potential in this way under-developed Character! GO Haitian! GO Haitian!
In this next scene, nearing the end of this quite epic commentary and episode, Noah is finally home and he meets up with a fully healed Claire. Claire points out that she died once today and this immediately shocks Noah, because we all know Sylar is coming back and with a serious vengeance. No one owns the Sylar twice and gets away with it! So obviously, Sylar breaks into Claires house and immediately goes for Noah’s head. But luckily for him, our favorite squinter Hiro warps in and does one of the most badass crap he has ever done. He says, “Bad man.” to Sylar and warps him, then warps back and warps Elle, and then warps Claire to the past where she was given to Noah by Hiro’s father. Talk about total badassness. Hiro owned up this episode, the last time he did something this cool was when he warped Adam Monroe into a flippin’ coffin. Why can’t Peter do this when he had his powers? Oh yea that’s right, he’s emo.
Now the finale of this week’s Episode. Sylar and Elle are both warped on some random beach, and Sylar decides to kill Elle (NOOOO!!!!). What a bummer seriously… and not to mention completely pointless. But it had to be done to make Sylar a monster again. Lets just hope he doesn’t get all wishy-washy with this and make the killing of Elle all regrettable…
Honorable mention: Seth Green reveals that their is one last 9th Wonder comic! And that a certain messenger has it… Wow. Also the big answer to who has been putting out these comics happen to be the common consensus that, indeed, Isaac Mendez produced future series of the comic and just haven’t had them published yet. What a bummer actually, I was hoping for something more absurd.
