Episode 3x01: "The Second Coming"

September 22nd 2008

--

So I thought as we aren't decided whether its Season 2 or Season 3 that Volume 3 is gonna retun with why not open a new thread and what better then some gossip from the Jules Verne 2007 Festival where they showed a preview of Villains and heres what went down...

SYLAR, and lots of him. It's hard to describe exactly what we were shown--most of it must have been a dream sequence or future-jump scenario because everyone was dead. The bodies of the main cast were littered around what looked like a trashed Company prison. I can only remember Claire (dressed as a cheerleader) and Matt's bodies clearly, but it was pretty grotesque (yay! Not a lot of that this season).

Apparently there will be the equivalent of "Seven Twelve Sylars running around." It sounds like seven killers with abilities, locked up by The Company, have escaped. The only one prominently featured was a lithe black man who seemed to have preternatural speed--and used that to rip a cop's heart out of his chest (or did something with it that killed the guy because he was very much dead afterwards). If I remember correctly all the other killers were just shadows in the asylum's hallway. IMO it looks like Sylar may be the one to break these people out, since he is seen killing at least three people for their abilities... but perhaps he does so unintentionally, who knows. The "Seven Twelve Sylars" line is directly from the trailer and I don't think he'd invite that kind of competition. He probably breaks into the Company building wanting revenge and discovers they have a bunch of special people locked up... hey, buffet!

It appears Sylar is caught by the Company again (he was tied down with a tube going into his nose). He's seen verbally toying with Elle while he's laying on a table as well as when he's upright and dressed normally, though the context was all over the place so who knows which comes first. They have a confrontation. The way it was edited implied--to me, at least--that he kills her, but that could have been within the context of the dream sequence/time-jump. Probably so.

The BEST part was a a shot of Angela Petrelli in the asylum... and then hands coming up around her shoulders. The person behind her steps forward, and it's Sylar. Some of the other peeps in my party were taking that as confirmation that she's Teh Ev0l, but I figure that could just as well be her last minutes alive. There was an awful lot of her in the trailer too, actually, but she didn't look pleased by what was going on.

To see a bit of that for yourself heres a link.

OMG WTF Sylar and Angela Petrelli!!!

wow, it was hard to make anything out.

but how do they have anything even made? I thought the WGA strike had postponed their filming?

No they started filming more episodes before the strike they didn't have a full episode to show so they just took clips from part completed episodes it would seem plus why start Volume 3 when its gonna interrupted.

The link is in french. :s

The text is the video isn't I don't think...

Another rundown from the episode...

First off: This was thrown together very quickly by Tim and Jeph and snuck out of the studio--supposedly. We were told no video tape or pictures but they say we couldn't talk about it. So, hoping I won't get killed for this..

Heroes Clips: THEY WERE AWWWESOMMMMME! Big Big Action!

A bunch of clips--I believe--from the next episode (or next couple). We were shown the clips only once and they were fast and furious.

The Wrath of Sylar"Villians" Heroes vol 3

It doesn't appear to be a Legion of Doom (at the moment) so much as Sylar unleashing HELL! He frees all other Sylar-like lunatics upon the world. A beaten up HRG says, "Its like having twelve SYLARS lose in the world!" (For my fellow comics geeks, its like Joker opening up all the dungeons of Arkham Asylum and saying "Go play!")

The halls of the Company looks ravaged and ripped apart (not blown up). The suggestion is utter chaos!

Lookout Mama Petrelli! (who looks like she's taken the reigns there) and Elle appear to be the main targets (both could survive) and, Sylar seemed to be taking particularly bloody enjoyment in punishing Elle.

Matt is also at the Company and I don't know if he is killed or injured, but he doesn't look at all well.

I think we saw the "Knox" character punch his arm through a Police Car and into a cop's face and through his chest.

I don't remeember seeing Adam or Maya or any of the other characters not all ready mentioned.

There are some truly "Hellraiser" like moments in the trailer I saw.

I hope others who were there last night will post to fill in what I can't remember. I'll PM them later.

By reading some of the post in the livejournal post I remembered some things.

I don't know if any of it is a dream sequence.

Sylar was at one point strapped down on a table.

But later Elle was later the one flat on her back, clearly being tortured by Sylar:

dialogue:

Sylar:...of course, I'm a psychopathic killer.

Elle: It takes one to know one.

The last shot is Sylar coming up behind Angela Petrelli

I don't remember seeing bodies of the main cast all over the place as another poster posted.

I do remember a silohuettes of either Heroes (one looked like Claire, one like Niki) or Villians

Word Ballon has this great interview with Jeff Loeb and Jesse Alexander. It's funny and informative and not really spoilers, but great insite and I agree (So far) in all they have said.

Here is what Jesse said about Angela's power:

"Angela?s power has been established in the show and it?s there?s for hardcore people if they were to look at the show and look at peter and think about him and what he can do and they could probably figure out what Angela?s power might be."

Why would we have to guess when they should have shown it already. I doubt her power is the same as Peter's.

    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know The ONLY thing I need to know is the price, which I know will be way higher than I (and most people) are willing to pay for a phone... so basically nothing here I need to know. PS: Nice job getting that Apple reference to a non-existent and unrevealed product as "competition" in there. Cheque is in the mail.
    • Well I really think the repasting helped if your higher clocks have returned, maybe the next thing to look at is if there is a problem with your case airflow? I guess this because your 3080 has returned to optimal state, but is still staying too warm, which might suggest it was thermal throttling before you repasted, of which the only logical conclusion could be outside factors.
    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know by Hamid Ganji Galaxy Z Fold 7 - Image via Samsung The next generation of Samsung foldables is set to be unveiled next month at the second Unpacked event of the year. Samsung’s 2026 foldables are not expected to offer significant upgrades over their predecessors, with the Korean firm instead focusing on design refinements and conventional upgrades such as faster processors and better cameras. However, Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil an all-new passport-style foldable this year to rival Apple’s first foldable iPhone, which is expected to debut this September. Here’s a roundup of everything we know about Samsung’s upcoming foldable devices ahead of their official debut. When can we expect Samsung’s new foldables? The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 series were unveiled in July, and Samsung is expected to maintain this timeframe in 2026. Based on previous reports from Korean sources, Samsung will hold its Unpacked event on July 22 in London, UK, to pull back the curtain on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. The devices are also expected to hit the shelves a few weeks after launch. However, Samsung has yet to announce an official date. A new naming scheme? One of the most interesting changes we might see this year is a new naming scheme for Samsung’s latest foldables. SamMobile reported that since Samsung is expected to unveil three foldables this year, it has adopted a new naming strategy to simplify product identification for customers. Accordingly, the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 will reportedly be called the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and will serve as the direct successor to last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7. The “Ultra” suffix suggests the phone could feature higher-end specifications, such as additional rear camera modules. Samsung’s new passport-style foldable is expected to carry the Galaxy Z Fold 8 name without any suffix. This model is reportedly equipped with two rear cameras. No major changes are expected for the Flip model. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 anticipated specs Rumors over the past few months suggest Samsung is preparing several upgrades for its upcoming foldables, although the devices may continue to rely on larger batteries and faster charging speeds rather than dramatic design changes. The primary focus this year is expected to be the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and its wide-screen design. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here are the anticipated specifications for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra based on previous leaks: 6.5-inch outer display and 8-inch inner display, 120Hz refresh rate, and 2,600 nits peak brightness Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, paired with 12GB or 16GB of RAM and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of storage 4.1mm thickness when unfolded and a weight of 210g 200MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, 10MP or 12MP telephoto camera, 10MP cover camera, and 10MP selfie camera 5,000mAh battery with 45W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 As for the Galaxy Z Flip 8, the device is not expected to be a major departure from its predecessor, although it could become slightly slimmer. Expected specifications include: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Exynos 2600 processor 12GB of RAM with 256GB and 512GB storage options 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner dispaly and 4.1-inch Super AMOLED outer dispaly 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 Samsung’s foldables are also expected to launch with Gemini Intelligence, Google’s AI suite for automating tasks in Android ecosystem. Moreover, given current memory and component costs, some Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 variants could see a price hike. Galaxy Z Fold 8 adopts a wide-screen design The centerpiece of the upcoming Unpacked event could be the Galaxy Z Fold 8, previously rumored as the Galaxy Z Fold Wide. This model adopts a passport-style form factor and is expected to compete directly with Apple’s iPhone Fold. Galaxy Z Fold 8 official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here’s what to expect: 7.6-inch primary OLED display and 5.4-inch cover display, 120Hz refresh rate, 2,600 nits peak brightness, and 4:3 aspect ratio Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage options 4,800mAh battery with 45W wired charging 50MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera Android 17 and One UI 9 The three new foldable phones are unlikely to be the only devices unveiled at Samsung’s Unpacked event. The company is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the Galaxy Watch 9 series.
