Movie Reviews of Heroes: Season Three
Movie Review: Amazing extras enhance a great season set.
Summary: 5 Stars
I was always backing season 3 despite the naysayers. I agree the first half has rough spots but still good and the second half made up for it big time. As many here have discussed the season itself, I wanted to focus on the extras, which are amazing.
*First, EVERY episode has an audio commentary with various cast and crew members rotating around.The discussions can be lively on behind the scenes stuff, how they work the show on camera and how the plans for season 3 shifted due to season 2 being cut down. It's fun hearing Brian Fuller speak on being back and the actors have obvious fun talking about working on the show and the great insight adds to things.
*There 41 deleted scenes spread out among the discs, many of which do fill in plot holes such as the fate of the doctor who treated Nikki/Tracy/Barbara and what happened to Molly. The best ones explore the background of Knox and his surprising links to another Hero.
*There are two of the webisode series: "Going Postal" was the first showing a man with a unique power while "Nowhere Man" focuses on the Puppet Master trying to live a normal life but unable to hide his own darkeness. I thought "The Rookie" would be on there as it ties in to season 3 but these are good.
*Stunt master Tim Gilbert shows the working of stunts on the show and how the actors really get into doing a lot of stuff themselves.
*The FX guys talk about the challenges of creating visual effects that are as "real world" as can be (how does a person flying or freezing in seconds really look, etc) and some big stuff like the destruction of Tokyo in the first episode.
*Prop Box looks at all the props the series has and how they never throw anything away since you don't know when they'll use it again.
*"Genetics of a Scene" focuses on four scenes over the series: The Claire/Sylar confrontation and the fake head Hayden needed; how they create the effects for Hiro freezing time around Daphne in the office; Matt working his thoughts on Danko on the street; and Beeman directing a Sylar/Danko scene. Pretty cool seeing how those all work and the care put into them.
*Tim Kring and other writers discuss how their plans for season 3 shifted about and what they tried to do and I think a lot of the naysayers may be swayed by the fact they really wanted to please the fans here. It's also interesting to hear how some ideas changed like how several episodes of volume 4 were to take place in a super prison but they decided it was better to keep the characters on the run.
*There's also a gallery of all the Tim Sale artwork used during the season.
Overall, an amazing extras set that enhances an already fine season and provides even more entertainment for a "Heroes" fan.
