Thats just nuts :cool:

:eek:.....:eek:......:eek: wtf!

Well now that's over with,can't fricking believe it's simon! And how much hotter he is being all masterful

. So so funny with gay nathan and he may want to tone down the hyperness in other areas...:p. Now is simon telling the truth,are they together in the future or is he manipulating her? I think it is him,not a shapeshifter...What's going on with the new girl? What's going on with the new guy? I think the storm was created on purpose and he's there to find out how it affected them. Looks like the screenshot with nathan bloodied and running is going to be in the next episode..

On the one hand, everything involving Nathan in that episode was fantastic.

On the other hand, Simon's been turned into a cross between Hiro Nakamura and the husband in The Time Traveller's Wife. It felt like everything involving Simon in that episode was bad fanfic written by a teenager who's watched Heroes and Doctor Who, but doesn't realise that those shows in turn have been drawing on other material like the Chris Claremont X-Men comics (and the 90s cartoon which it inspired) or The Time Traveller's Wife.

'All these weeks of build-up ad we're not even gonna shag.'
As a sad Nathan/Kelly fangirl I'm as disappointed as Nathan.

Did not expect Simon to be Superhoodie I was convinced it was Nathan but then again that's just 'cause Alisha's never used her power on him. Also in the very first episode of the season we saw Superhoodie getting dressed and it showed he was white. There's a few videos on the site where he has black gloves on that, from far away, make it look like he has dark skin tone as well as the shadows last week so it's obvious they were trying to mislead the audience.

The scene with the peanuts in the tattoo parlour had me laughing so much, brilliant.

Anyone catch what Simon said before he left to give the peanuts to them? Couldn't hear it properly.

I really don't see the comparison? Hiro could go backwards and forwards in time and the guy in time travellers wife was hurled through time as a result of a genetic fault. Simon has chosen to come back from the future,he prob didn't come back by himself so he can't jump around in the time/space continuem. Dr who is an alien with a tardis (time and relative dimensions in space) so he has to use a machine,plus he's over 900 years old. Simon has the clocks up as he knows when something vital that he is needed for is coming up (like giving them the peanuts). Can't comment on x men as i've only watched the movies and a few of the cartoons and didn't see any time travel in them.

I think the Hiro comparison was more about the fact that both characters were a lot more suave and good looking in the future and the time traveller's wife comparison was in relation to the love story. The rest of the post I think is just saying it feels like fanfiction written by someone who thinks Heroes and Doctor Who invented the whole time travel love story thing, not the actual time travel methods.

I agree the storyline isn't original but then again with so many stories out there, nothing really is these days. Were some dodgy moments with dialogue but I still think it'll be interesting to see how it pans out. I find Simon/Alisha way more interesting than Curtis/Alisha anyway.

RibenaHead · 26-11-2010 12:53am

There's still the possibility that Future Simon isn't really Simon at all. When Curtis goes to relive the past there aren't two Curtises.

Also, has anybody got any theories as to why Simon can touch Alisha? Do the superpowers wear off after a certain amount of time? Does he become 'immune' to it? Does true love conquer all and override the power?

Either way....
Simon: I totally would!

Yeah but I've noticed in interviews etc. they always refer to Curtises power as being able to rewind time where as Simon said he travelled in time so I'm guessing that what Simon did is different somehow.

]"Maybe its coz he knew I missed lunch"

Just had 2 thoughts, not simultaneously of course:D

Nathans reversed power began just before the explosion, he looked like death warmed up, hence rather than immortal, actually living dead. So got his 6th sense.

Curtis flash forward showed him as a superhero, so its not just Simon.
Or maybe they all take turns to see who can get whatever it is right, a bit groundhog.

Will we see return of tattooist. Apart from miss shapeshifter looking for personal revenge, he looks to be first looking for evil.

According to wikipedia there is likely to be a third series, and a hour long special at Xmas. Some suggestion of others "from friends to stepdads" discovering powers, read on....

Link to interview with writer Howard Overman explaining "all"

And leaving the last words to Nathan

"I just realised I havent died this week"

He knows he is in a weekly series?:D

IMO you didn't have to spoiler your post :P

Maybe it's just me, but I have no problem with speculation about previous episodes that have aired, and ideas, thoughts, general ramblings.

The only thing I think should be spoilered is the stuff that hasn't been shown on tv yet.

I fancied Simon before everyone else did, like last season. :cool:

Eeeeveryone fancies him now he's so hot and sexy cos he's from the future and he can touch Elisha... wah wah wah. I thought he was hot when he was weird and awkward and cut the crusts off his sandwiches.

Insert funny comment here, I'm too tired but its calling out for one.

He is one to watch.

I like the way that even super-suave Future-Simon still manages to accidentally make himself look he's sniffing Alisha's knickers. Which suggests to me that he might really be the real Simon after all, even if he does seem notably less ethical than his present day counterpart:

Last week, they made a point of taking a moment to demonstrate that Present Day Simon wouldn't even consider abusing his power just to attract a girl - whereas Future Simon seems to have no problem at all with using what he knows* to sex up Alisha six ways to Sunday? Seems like a curious change of heart for him to make in the interim.

*About the future, I mean. Ahem.

Nah. He and his twin Barry are taking turns to pull the "I'm me from the future and we've hooked up already so its ok to do it" ruse to get Alisha. Oldest trick in the book. Works every time. (if you have a buff identical twin

or can time travel

).

By ethical, do you mean the fact that he's riding Elisha despite the fact that she's with Curtis? Because I considered that, but I don't think present day Simon is really all that close to Curtis. He seems to concentrate his efforts to make friends on Kelly and Nathan, so if by ethical you mean he's riding Elisha despite the fact that she's with Curtis, I don't think present or future Simon cares. But that's just referring to this series so far.

If you refer to the time travel issue i.e. revealing himself and revealing the reason that he travelled back, clearly the boy never watched Charmed, where it was drilled into you that you NEVER reveal yourself when you travel back in time. EVER. It changes EVERYTHING. (Which I get is the whole point of him coming back, still ARGH. There are cosmic repercussions for this kind of thing.)

jill_valentine · 26-11-2010 3:55am

I've edited in a bit more of what I mean. Principally, it seems like they went out of their way to show that Simon takes the responsibility of his power and his knowledge very seriously indeed, and wouldn't use either to manipulate anybody else for his own gain under any circumstances - like in the club, when his power is reversed. Whereas Future Simon seems to have no bother at all with arranging a kind of future-to-present booty call with Alisha?

If he really is from the future, then it's uncharacteristically unethical for Simon to use his knowledge of their future relationships to - ahem - manipulate Alisha for his own ends. It's made evident that Alisha takes a special interest in Simon only after Future Simon makes her take another look at him. Whatever relationship they're going to have, in our future, is arguably now only going to be a product of Future Simon's meddling.

Whether that's his intention - one of his clocks, one of the things that "needs to happen" - remains to be seen, but it feels like something we were supposed to wonder about.

allandanyways · 26-11-2010 4:01am

Getcha. It is a verrrry strange turn of personality.

I always get the feeling that Simon is holding a lot in, sometimes he seems to be imploding silently. Perhaps something happens that exposes a different facet of his personality. His e4 page also refers to him having a sharp and calculating mind, so I have a funny feeling his awkwardness isn't as genuine as he lets on. It prevents people from getting to close to him. I'd say something big is going to happen to change Simon, and future Simon is going to make sure that happens.

It's three AM, I'm going to go and dream about Simon/Iwan Rheon

edit: Random thought- anyone think he killed Curtis to get his power? I wonder are the powers transferable, i.e. if there was another storm, could future Simon deliberately make his present self steal Curtis' power? I dunno.

jill_valentine · 26-11-2010 4:09am

That's the thing, and brace yourself folks, it's about to get really nerdy up in here; A couple of people have mentioned some comics and superhero stories that seem to have had an influence on this show. The comic that Misfits has always reminded me of most is Marvel's Runaways, by Brian K Vaughan and Joss Whedon.

I'm wondering if Simon isn't the "Victor" of the bunch, if that's the case?

EDIT: If the ASBO 5 are a recognised thing in the future - "famous", as Future Simon seems to miserably imply - then Future Curtis' superhero outfit would make sense as a kind of a press gimmick or something.

Well he seemed pretty interested in her already. Saying that, it's possible that he was interested in her but did nothing about it because of Alisha and Simon needs to change that like you say. I wonder does it go back even further than that. Maybe Simon is responsible for getting Nathan's brother to meet him because that led to Curtis seeing the future. Hell maybe Simon is responsible for all of them being on community service and getting their powers.

A problem I'm having with this theory and the others is that, didn't Simon follow his future self home and stop at the last minute, I'm still trying to figure what that means in this.The part of him following himself kind of gets rid of many of the future Simon lying and being the actual Simon stuff...unless he went back and they've just hidden it.

Fysh · 26-11-2010 7:58am

Someone posted earlier about not understanding my comparison to Heroes or Doctor Who, so what the hell:

In Series 1 & 2 of Heroes, we see a Future Hiro come into the storyline. Future Hiro is obsessed with a series of events that he wants to change, keeping track of them through an elaborate timeline - actually a room with ropes criss-crossing it and photos, documents and relevant details of the timeline attached to the ropes. Future Hiro is much more confident, suave and capable than Current Hiro. He makes himself present at various points in the story to make sure certain things happen or do not happen.

In Doctor Who, we have a character who travels through time and space, with a general tendency to Right Wrongs. The writers of Doctor Who have also introduced the character River Song using the same storytelling approach as The Time Travellers Wife - the gimmick being that the relationship between two characters happens at different times in those characters' lives due to the ability of one or both of them to travel through time.

The revelation that Simon is Superhoodie feels really contrived and forced, and Aisha's reaction to it comes out of nowhere. Her character feeling lonely and deprived of physical intimacy makes sense - but suddenly deciding she's got the horn for Simon? Feh.

One of the things I'd been really enjoying with Misfits was their approach to time-travel - instead of people from a bazillion Futures Gone Wrong Travelling Back In Time With A Dire Warning, we had one guy, Curtis, who could rewind time, but there was only ever one timeline. It kept things simple and elegant.

Now we've got one of the biggest clichés in time travel happening with a boring version of an interesting character and an internal continuity that's about to make itself far more complicated than it needs to be, for no good reason. It's suddenly trying to go serious, too - what was with the over-use of the Batman Begins-style music in Simon's scenes? That climactic segment with Vince and the peanuts felt like a bad spoof, with all the grimacing and overbearing music...

jill_valentine · 26-11-2010 8:28am

Ordinarily the time travel thing would make me groan with frustration, but I'm willing to see where they bring it, purely because of how carefully planned the previous arcs have been. Any of the questions I found myself asking in the early episodes of S1 were neatly answered in the course of the series, and indeed, proved to be part of the fabric of the ongoing plot, so I'm reserving judgement on the timetravel thing for the time being. I'm happy to let them lead me down this garden path for now. If it turns out they've brought me somewhere stupid in time for the finale, I'll get cranky then, but we'll see.

Superhoodie was one of my least favourite elements of the thing generally, but Iwan Rheon is a tremendous actor and I think he's earned a bit of surprisingly-muscular superhero time after all the cock/hairy armpit lines he's had to put up with.

I also think it genuinely does make sense for the character. Simon was always the one who took the powers thing the most seriously, who put the most thought into it, who initially suggested, albeit hesitantly, that they were superheroes, and he always made the most concerted effort to keep their secret safe. He also doesn't really have anything else to cling to, it makes sense that he would completely immerse himself in that superhero identity.

So yes, while The Dark Knight posturing did make me cringe a little, in retrospect it seems more of a product of that movie's influence on Simon than on the writers, if that makes sense. Although I must say, he always struck me as a Marvel boy, rather than a DC kind of guy...

He didn't follow Superhhodie home, Superhoodie led Simon (Superhoodie being Simon and so knew Simon was following him) to the new girls house, therefore leading Curtis to meet her.

I understand Alisha's sudden falling for Superhoodie (I'm not calling him Future Simon, its too arkward.) After months of no physical intimacy, suddenly there's this person who she can touch, and he seems utterly devoted to her.

I have a feeling, and I don't know why, that Simon may end up being the hero, and Curtis being the Big Bad. I genuinely don't like him, he's a selfish prick, he has only ever used his power to get himself out of trouble. Sure if others are involved, then fine, but the other Misfits have all used their powers for the greater good in some way.

The Tattooist had a great power, I didn't get the sudden fascination with Kelly. Granted I missed the first 10 minutes or so, caught up with it when Nathan called his tattoo ghey.

Some very Dark Knight stuff going on with Superhoodie, but he carried off the presence admirably. He's a talented actor, he deserved the screen time.

Right, but the person she can touch is the same guy she's obviously thought of as a repugnant freak since day one. In terms of the series, it's been at most 2 months since they developed powers - missing the raw physicality of sex is one thing, but she's going head-over-heels for him by the look of things, despite having had a tough time opening up to Curtis as the first proper boyfriend she's ever had...

It doesn't work for me, anyway.

...

Did you seriously just try to suggest that of the five central characters, Curtis is the prick? The guy who got stuck in a timeloop trying to do right by his previous girlfriend so that she wouldn't get landed in jail because of him? The guy who couldn't handle the misery his breakup inflicted on her, and who therefore ended up only managing to do right by her by unintentionally saying something so monumentally knobheaded that she dumped him in disgust?

Yeah, he's the selfish prick, and definitely not Nathan, who can't even use someone's actual name when he's begging them to save his life :rolleyes:

I didn't think it was a sudden fascination - from their conversation it was seemed pretty obvious she's a regular and he'd fancied her for a while.

Sofiztikated wrote: »

Iwan Rheon is a decent actor, but the dialogue and scripting around his Dark Knight moments were cringe-inducing. Most of it would've been at home in the Dark Knight parody episode of South Park ("The Coon", in case you're interested).

Honestly, that scene with Simon and the bag of peanuts should've been played for laughs. Instead we get "ZOMG! SERIOUS BIZNIZ!" music, slow-motion and grimacing. It was like an adaptation of a particularly bad Rob Liefeld comic :eek:

26-11-2010 2:03pm

Actually you're right - Simon is an incredible actor. Though him and SuperHoodie are the same person, they both seem completely different - their postures, their mannerisms (sometimes) are not the same.

I don't think he was using the fact that he is from the future to seduce her; if he is right and they are in love, then it's understandable that he would want to touch her.

The interesting thing is this; how accurate is what Curtis saw now that Simon is actively changing aspects of it?

Mr E · 26-11-2010 2:16pm

I think future Simon will turn out to be a bad guy. I can see him turning on Curtis (maybe leading him to the girl with asthma is a way to separate him from the others?). Any move FS makes on the others can be undone with some time travelling by Curtis.

I also think FS might be a bit Sylar-ish (he can absorb others' powers, maybe even evolve them into stronger versions). If he has absorbed and evolved Future Alisha's power, that might explain why he is immune to her. He could have planted the future vision in Curtis with an evolved version of Future Kelly's power. If he absorbed and evolved Future Curtis's power, he could have used that to time travel. Absorbing and evolving Future Nathan's power could mean he can jump off high buildings without hurting himself.

angelll · 26-11-2010 3:26pm

For everyone saying that simon is too ethical in the present...er he wasn't too ethical when alisha gave him a bj in the locker room (granted it wasn't alisha but still,he didn't know that

It's not necessarily that he's using it just to seduce her, but what he knows about the relationships they're going to have - assuming he's for real - loads the dice in his favour in any interaction they might have. For Simon, who's always been extremely careful about the "rules" of having superpowers, that seems strange.

Ok, lets say Simon & Alisha get together 'naturally' as future simon says. Why then would future simon reveal himself to Alisha? Couldnt this jeopardise the way they are supposed to get together? His revealing himself to Alisha means she thinks they have to get together and therefore will go for it at some stage.

It doesnt make sense to me that he has told Alisha so much....

Honestly, that scene with Simon and the bag of peanuts should've been played for laughs. Instead we get "ZOMG! SERIOUS BIZNIZ!" music, slow-motion and grimacing. It was like an adaptation of a particularly bad Rob Liefeld comic :eek:

I think that scene was played for laughs. The music, slow mo etc made it all the funnier in my opinion. It was made seem like SERIOUS BIZNIZ because it's completely ridiculous.

As for Alisha suddenly falling for Simon I think it does make sense. The first time he touched her face she was uncomfortable and pulled away; she wanted physical intimacy but he was Simon and the idea freaked her out. Then when she was talking to present day Simon she was confused and vulnerable and he comforted her and complimented her and that made her wonder if maybe she really could love him. Then she visits future Simon and he's so suave and he seems to love her and he can touch her so she just decided to go for it. I don't think she's in love with him yet, I don't know if she even properly fancies him but she believes she will so she's giving it a try. Well that's my take on it.

As for Curtis's superhero costume in the future and Simon being Superhoodie I was watching the behind the scenes video for last night's episode on the e4 site and

the actress who plays Alisha was wearing a superhero costume in the shots when she was discussing the episode so looks like that all become superheroes. Seems a bit careless to interview her when she's dressed as a superhero so I'm guessing the writer thought we'd realised already or it could just be to mislead us.

Edit: Was just watching it again and when FS is in the shower I noticed what looks like a tattoo on his arm. Dunno if it's Iwan's and I never noticed it before or if it's intentional but found it funny considering Simon saying he's afraid of needles earlier in the episode.

I wonder if SuperHoodie can still turn invisible.

There's a few other things that strike me - I don't think Curtis' visions are accurate now, because SuperHoodie is actively changing them by his solely being there. Alisha wasn't supposed to fall down the stairs, bumping her head and requiring her to be taken back to SuperHoodie's lair, so Curtis is seeing a alternative version of the future that doesn't necessarily exist anymore.

Oh no, I've just gone cross-eyed.

I don't think that SuperHoodie went back alone either. We all saw that there was a drug that reversed their power. There may be a drug that makes their power stronger; giving Curtis the ability to travel back further and taking future Simon back with him. However, if this is the case, where is Future Curtis? It could be possible that Future Simon tricked Future Curtis to bring him back in time, with Future Simon killing Future Curtis and manipulating the future to his own version of it.

Damnit, gone cross-eyed again.

I never really thought much of Alicia's character until this episode but wow I think it's a great twist two unlikey characters ending up like that. Also was shocked that

Simon is Superhoodie :eek:

I really can't wait until non futer Simon gets with her

I was a bit disapointed about the Nathan and Kellie thing I really wanted it to happen, I'm curious to what's going to happen there :rolleyes:
