S2E7 - Like a Keith in the Night

The penultimate episode of Peacemaker season 2 releases tonight. What are your thoughts of the season so far? How do you feel about last weeks "twist?" What are your hopes for these last two episodes?

This show is legitimately not good. If you had someone watch this and then Penguin and asked the guy behind one of these shows is running DCU, everyone would laugh when you told them it was the person behind Peacemaker.
>>
Hey anon. Want to quiz me on some spider facts?
>>
>Jesus Christ
>Him, they love
People seriously need to research nazi history if they wanna say this. The nazis not only immediately kicked the Catholics out, they pushed a heavy modified version of Christianity that removed all semitic ties and what we have seems to identify that the plan was to slowly phase that out for the sake of not having to split any influence with a religion since it had gotten harder to weaponize.
>>
>>150659284
real americans practice fake christianity too so it still fits
>>
>>150659300
True but you'd think the "phase out" part would have come by 80 years
>>
>>150659284
>What do you MEAN it'll come wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross?
Fucking newfag.
>>
>>150659329
That doesn't work in a timeline where it was directly pushed by the original Third Reich anon.
It's why I wish this timeline operated outside the whole 'WWII' thing and instead hit something like the attempted coup on Roosevelt succeeding which would have made a lot more sense IMO
>>
where's the torrent
>>
>>150659358
>That doesn't work in a timeline where it was directly pushed by the original Third Reich.
It works pretty well, just in the context of making the switch from American Democracy to Fascism easier, which would be in the Nazis interests because the alternative would be a non-stop guerilla war in a nation of millions.
>>
>>150659415
Oh true, true.
That said I love that Nazi world Auggie is actually a good dude who disagrees with the horrors of his world
>>
Adebayo's massive bouncing tits are distracting.
>>
So Earth X is over, no Overman, Auggie was a good dude and then died
>>
>>150658939
Penguin sucks
It's just some sapranos godfather knock off with Batman characters, and I'm being generous because Matt is too up his ass to even truly use Batman characters
>>
>>150659284
Catholics aren't the only religion that worships Jesus, there was a whole thing called the Reformation where a million subgroups branched out to do their own take on worshipping him.
>>
>>150659658
Reeves is one of the only guys doing anything creative with Batman that does involve making him a BatGod, a facist symbol, a hapless loser, another version of Iron Man, or any other faggot shit. It's just a guy obsessed with fighting and trying to kill mobsters, drug addicts, and psychopaths. It's actual Batman. If he could work a mystery in there it would be perfect.
>>
It's interesting and great how the speculation on how the story would play out was right on both accounts

It was a Nazi world but at the same time his family (or at least Auggie) were genuinely decent people and Chris basically ruined their lives by coming there.
>>
>>150659434
That shit was tragic. All this time I figured they were going to reveal that they were essentially the same but that one universe punished them for it and left them bitter while the other was rewarded for it and became chill. I was ready for this episode to let me down in that regard because I wanted some kind of confrontation/exploration of that and knew there just wasn't enough time, but they turned it around for me by doing almost the exact opposite in a scene that only took about 10 seconds.
>>
>>150659359

Might be a reach but I wonder if the added "h's" on the end of Cheerios and Cheetos were for Hitler
>>
>>150659681
>Reeves is one of the only guys doing anything creative with Batman
If that was so he'd actually make an original script instead of copying Se7en or the Godfather and plopping Batman into it. I genuinely loved The Batman but let's not pretend it's anything more than a fun Se7en fanfic but with Batman.
>>
Chris confirmed actual retard for never noticing the Hitler mural in Argus
>>
>>150659745
I said myself I wish he was able to put a proper mystery in there. I wish he would just fucking steal something from the comics. Someone should hand Batman : The Cult and then lock him in a room. Yea they are fanfics, but they are AT LEAST fanfics of someone who doesnt actively hate Batman or wish he was doing something other than Batman. Reeves loves the world, he just doesnt know how to add to it. He knows how to style it though.

It's just so fucking stupid and getting in the way of a good show. Like someone is writing a script but their little brother runs in and screams "Mom says it's my turn to write a page!"

Definitely at the start

He literally refuses to use names like Oswald Cobblepot out of shame and embarrassment like fucking Nolan

>>150659677
Like I said, Hitler's plan, speculated by most historians, was that there'd be a slow phase out once the war was over. This is pretty much dictatorship 101. Sooner or later, religion poses a threat to the party.
But I do think >>150659415 makes a point in that the nazis would probably let it be practiced within the context of an American puppet regime for practicality's sake.
>>150659716
I'd agree that cutting it like that was ugh. At least allowing for Auggie to foreshadow it a bit more than the Adebayo scene would be good
>>
>>150659800
I implore you to read any comic book
You'd probably have an aneurysm over how cheesy and annoying the dialog on every page is
Maybe because comics were inherently targeted towards children

If jokes like these annoy you then what are you even doing watching cape shit?

Brother at this point, in the timeline we are in, we can either have a dude who loves the universe but hates using Cobblepot, OR another dude, who hates the universe so much he wants it to be something else, and has someone punch Cobblepot until he's shorter. I'm choosing Reeves in that race.

What I got is that Blue Dragon was a good dude but Peacemaker and Keith were both Nazis.
>>
>>150659872
Why, why did I hear your post to the melody of that "Johnny Johnny" shit?
>>
I pretty much called Auggie 2 being a good dude and realized pretty quickly that meant he was going to die because of it (although I didn't expect it to be that sudden)
That plus Chris' realization over Keith's unconscious body and him subsequently throwing himself under the bus to save the others made for a triple gut punch that just left me in a bad mood
>>
>>150659800
adrian is a funny retard that's his whole thing
>>
I have no fucking idea where this show is going into the final episode. I expected to be in Earth X for the rest of the season.

Also Vigilante stocks are dropping hard after he fucked up and killed Auggie. The set-up for Keith coming back and being a bigger antagonist for Chirs is cool, but it's a shame we will likely not get a season 3.

Overall, this season reminds me of Amazon's The Tick. The first season was focused and well made, then season 2 is a meandering mess with some good ideas that don't get paid off because it gets cancelled.
>>
>>150659891
It wasn't confirmed Augie wasn't a Nazi, just that he didn't completely agree with everything in Earth X. I assume he obviously had certain idiologies that aligned with Nazism due to being raised in that world but maybe not to the level of your average Nazi. I mean Vigilante X didn't hesitate to jump through the window and stab him while calling him a Nazi. But he scolded Keith for how he handled chasing down Adebayo.
Keith X and Chris X were 100% Nazis though
>>

Argus explores the multiverse, meanwhile Keith goes to take revenge on Chris. Also Superman might appear.

If the Sons of Liberty are a hint, Augie just had anti-goverment and reactionary tendencies and they develop in accordance to their world.
>>
>>150659891
I don't think Keith was necessarily a nazi, he just wasn't as staunchly against it as his father
Alt Peacemaker was definitely a nazi, but even he was probably on the path to change if the theories about him sleeping with Flag Jr end up being true because I imagine that would completely rattle his beliefs if he was now one of the "others" that he was taught to hate

Vigilante keeps being the true villain of the show I see
I fully expect him to turn on Peacemaker if a season 3 is ever made

Which was a stupid plan, like most of the Nazis ideas. Religion is a good way to solodify the establishment and keep the people on board.
>>
>>150660169
I believe Gunn said S2 will be the last one for the show. Peacemaker will graduate to appearing in the movies (there's a rumor that he'll be one of the heroes who gets enlisted to deal with Braniac in Man of Tomorrow) while the others will return in the Waller series (rumored to be about Checkmate).

You need to take a cursory look at history. More wars have been fought over religion than for expansion or resources. They're worse too. They last longer and can spark up in a short time with no way to negotiate.

Hardly, in an authoritarian context, religion is a tool to be used and discarded particularly in a situation where everyone has access to the books or holy texts and they contradict what the party wants.
Keep in mind, this is before De-Stalinization or the Cultural revolution blew up in Mao's face
>>150660298
This is half true. You look at 70% of "religious wars" after the Crusades and there was almost always an underlying motive regarding land or resources. It's just really easy to rile up a populace by trying to portray something as divinely ordained. Even the Crusades themselves were full of other political matters. Our entire understanding of "Baphomet" boils down to a mistranslation of "Mohammed" where there was a Salem-like series of incidents during the crusades where nobles who didn't like each other would accuse each other of worshipping "Baphomet" like the Islamic infidels as a means of getting each other ousted and taking each other's stuff.
It was sorta revived with all the Satanic imagery in the 18th and 19th century by a bunch of edgy theatre kids

Holy reddit. Totally false. The more overzealous the people is about religion the least knowledge have or care about the text of a religious book. This is easily observed on how the evangelist or mormons latch to conservative figures that blantantly contravene the text of the Bible. And the role the Catholic Church in support of Franco and his regime.

probably not. s3 is confirmed to not be happening anytime soon so the only reason to end on a cliffhanger would be to get people to watch another show or movie. shit like that is pretty much why even normies turned on the mcu, so i really doubt james gunn would be pulling a stunt like that this early into the dcu's life

It seems to be a divisive topic actually. I see a lot of people complaining about the amount of shared universe superhero movies/shows as much as there are also complaints about how the shared universes don't feel as interconnected as they used to be, like it's a constant joke that we haven't seen Shang-Chi in anything else in five years.

There's a fine line between lovable fuck up and just fuck up and I think this episode finally pushed the group over it. It's hard for me to want to see any of these people succeed now
>>
>>150660370
this moment got me
>>
I'm pretty entertained by this show every week but fuck is it ever a bunch of wasted opportunities.
The worst part will always be that they set up the really interesting choice for Chris of wanting to be with his friends with his shitty life or be with a bunch of strangers with a near-perfect life amongst strangers and then just took the easy way out and laughed at the audience for ever thinking it could have been interesting
>>
>>150660370
The last episode of this season is supposed to be longer than the previous ones so he might find some happiness and maybe this show ends up on a better note for Chris.

Also James Gunn still has plans for Chris and he said Peacemaker not liking Superman was going to play out in the future so he might possibly be in Man of Tomorrow.
>>

That's probably getting resolved next episode, which apparently has the most favorite scene Gunn has filmed in any of his work and I'm guessing it's going to be Superman and Peacemaker sharing a scene together.

The season started with the Justice Gang shitting on Chris so maybe it will end with Superman validating him as a superhero.

I mean the latest episode framed it that way, felt like Earth X ended up being sort of a misdirect.
Instead of "Peacemaker realizes his family are Nazis and has to go up against them" as the conflict, it ended up being "Peacemaker realizes that despite literally being in a Nazi world, he is the one who always fucks up everything in the end".

If Peacemaker is really returning to the big screen then I hope he goes back to being a confident chad like he was in TSS.

>>150660197
a State-run religion, sure. But at that point why not just let party fervor and compliance to its values take the place of religion? Ultimately, in a totalitarian system, it becomes redundant. The only reason Christianity never died in Rome was that the imbalance of class (slaves) and oppression felt by subjugated non-Romans made the promise of everlasting life in paradise as long as you prayed to God all the more appealing. Constantine caught onto this and tried making it align to Roman rule, but even he suffered dogmatic bickering of different bishops until the Council of Nicaea established the Credo
>>
>>150661304
Thing about authoritarian regimes is that sooner or later you have to slowly ease a few things back if you wanna keep shit working.
China are absolutely god-tier at figuring out the formula on this one, allowing just enough of a sense of rebellion that people feel the enjoyment of relative freedom
>You can listen to all the rebellious music and watch all these banned foreign films perfectly legally so long as it stays away from the official CCP channels and has a social stigma of being "against Chinese values"
I'd imagine for a nazi-controlled America, it'd have to be a similar situation sooner or later.

Chicken before the egg deal. Most times the "real" reason for war, a border dispute, expansion, buffering, resources, is a way to file a recognized reason to the rest of the planet as to why you are engaging in warfare. As fuckd as it sounds, the world theater is more understanding of someone claiming they are disputing a border or annexing a territory the previously controlled, than a nation announcing is attacking on grounds of religion or straight persecution. That sets off red alarms because their populace could feel the want to defend or engage in that religious war as well, and drag the nation into conflict. This is why religion poses a threat to every nation, especially fascist ones.

Can I just say that the random citizens acting like zombies when chasing after Ads was weird? And not in the usual style of weirdness for this show either. It felt ridiculous. At least we were spared a prison break arc.

>>150659434
Him getting killed like that genuinely felt cruel. What a waste of an interesting character too. Keith turning into yet another antagonist with a revengeboner for Chris is also getting exhausting after several episode of Flagg Sr.

Sure but that's really not very interesting. It's not conflict. It's just a fact. And it's not like he fucked it up because he made awful selfish decisions. He's just kind of along for the ride where circumstances put him in places where everything gets fucked up and he suffers. Which isn't bad for a compelling story. It's just not conflict.

>>150661544
Can't wait for the 30 minute Superman and Lex sex scene in Man of Tomorrow with multiple close ups and fully uncensored.
>>
>>150661566
tonally, the comedy is a little braindead more so than s1. Perhaps its because it got more annoying than it did funny. "Bird blindness" was mildly funny for like one scene, Vij going on about random animal facts wore out in the same episode it started. The only one who was subtly but actually funny was Economos
>>
>>150661528
It was a character moment. Vigilante is awkward and autistic but Judomaster is quickwitted and able to turn a lame insult around so that it makes Vigilante look retarded
>>

this but unironically

>>150661575
It was funny and mainly there for shock gag humor because it reminded me of Jordan Peele's usual shtick and the absurdity of it got a laugh out of me

Adrian is apparently asexual but he still has threesomes with Peacemaker and was mad about not being invited to peacemaker's bi orgy. Also Gunn hinted in one of the podcast episodes that Vigilante and Chris may have had sex.

I just can't see Vigilante as sexual. I can't imagine how he and Chris could ever have fucked, or been in a situation where they could possibly have thought it was a good idea. It would be just so awkward.
>>
>>150661528
Judomaster just likes to mess with people and make them uncomfortable.

I enjoyed Peacemaker season 2, but I am getting a little tired of the trope James Gunn does where a character gives a big monologue only to die horrifically mid speech.
>>
>>150661603
That kind of humor was also present in S1 like the moment where Chris starts listing off random names for three minutes straight before the scene finally moves on.

I think Gunn's shows in general (except CC where there was barely anytime for anything) tend to be padded out with those kinds of dragged out jokes, although even GOTG Vol. 2 suffered from that problem. His better movies like Suicide Squad was where he perfected his formula and Superman's jokes were more lowkey (if it was written like Peacemaker then the monkey gag wouldn't be allowed to speak for itself, instead the characters will point it out and proceed to argue about it for a minute before moving on).
>>
>>150661669

>>150661471
Peacemaker seems to have improved his standing after stopping the Butterflies.
>>
>>150661682
Vigilante is desperate for Peacemaker's attention, it's literally the reason he even has sex as he sees it as an opportunity to bond with him. I think he'd definitely let Peacemaker hit just for the brief bonding moment.
>>
>>150661706
You're misremembering an extended extra scene after the credits with what was actually in the episode. It was pretty well-judged as a gag, reeling off names for just long enough to be funny. It's not in the same league as eating some bird shit and saying what you can taste in it

Most modern Gunn works follow a certain formula, whether you find them actually funny and good or not. Peacemaker (both seasons) exists on the spectrum where it delves too hard on the comedy because it's a full series and not just a two hour movie.
>>
Were they setting up a twist that the wrong vigilante went through the portal?

No, because the right Vigilant gets shot, and we see the right Vigilante is injured.

Creature Commandos Season 2 will be about peacemaker leading the Commandos through alternate dimensions to "liberate them" as Rick Flagg Sr. makes them all search for a dimension with his son still alive in it. Peacemaker will know his son's still alive on Earth-X, but not reveal that until later in the show because he doesn't want to return to naziworld.

You're telling me Adebayo outran all those people? They were far away at the start but they closed the gap which makes sense since she's fat as fuck but then they just stop gaining any ground and she got over that fence? Then ALL of them jumped in the pool? Are they brainless zombies? And Judo Master just happened to be there with a telephone wire prepped and ready like he knew they'd jump in the pool?

And then no one has a gun at Argus? They only sent police after them? Where's the swat team? Argus is serious business. And the not a single cop can hit a guy on a motorcycle? Shit, I know it's a TV show but what is this lazy ass plot convenience writing. I expected better from Gunn after Superman.

Biggest difference in running times in Season 1 was about 7 minutes.
This one only lasted about 33 minutes, over 15 minutes shorter than the longest of Season 2 so far.

Harcourt is a judgemental bitch, didn't she give Peacemaker shit for killing for peace in season 1 where they recruit him into Waller's killing for peace club to kill for peace? This is also right before she tries to kill Keith because he MIGHT travel through a portal they could close.

>You're telling me Adebayo outran all those people
Adebayou outrunning AND out swimming people... really makes you wonder why this world puts normal humans, like Chris, at near-metahuman status for being peak physical form and well trained, when that shit doesn't actually matter because it's tv bro

>Then ALL of them jumped in the pool? Are they brainless zombies?
They're Nazis, that's the bit. Like how none of them called the authorities they just charged in a braindead racist rage

>No guns at Argus
Flag Jr's goofball spying on Chris/Harcourt (and alt-Harcourt in general) made Argus look like incompetent office goofs
And why wouldn't they be? Under an authoritarian regime where you can lock of enemies of state on evidence as low as "being brown," they wouldn't need to do much except check twitter and submit report.
But then why can the dad of a guy suspect of killing many cops turn down a warrant? "You need a warrant" in Nazi America is retarded

>>150661304

James Gunn just really wants to push that
A. He loves music
B. Rock n Roll was stolen from black people and he's smart to know that
They throw in "best rock since the Beatles" to double down on when Vig tells the prison Nazis ZZ Top and Led Zeppelin were invented by black people and go "oh without them no one would've made music after the Beatles"
But Judomaster finds fucking Flaming Hot Cheetohs in Nazi world.

correct, if you constantly impose strict mandates all the time it'll only push more and more revolutionary sentiments. ease back a bit, let people believe things are better, and allow some "taboo" things to be widespread despite being "secret" in airquotes, and you have a healthier regime
>>
>>150662409
Another very consistent Gunn trope that grates me is that your found family is your real one and your real family is shit, which Superman (and the upcoming Supergirl) didn't avoid
>>
>>150662833
I never understand why people twist the words of this trope to try and find a reason to be mad at it. you're perfectly allowed to hate the found family trope without going "oh he's trying to say your real family is shit" or that "Gunn has a found family fetish" or whatever. why is it a bad thing to surround yourself with your friends and people who support you and form familial relationships with them?

In this universe the reason nazis won ww2 is because they discovered antartic kryptonite deposits that didn't exist on regular earth, and these kryptonite deposits power everything on earth-x, and result in ambient kryptonite radiation that depowers superman but doesn't kill him, and because he doesn't know of his origins in this universe due to being taken to an orphanage, he just thinks he's a regular guy

Main universe ARGUS is really no better. This entire season has made them look like nothing more than clowns. What was it, 5 episodes of them actively pursuing and bumblefucking every time they try to apprehend a single man they've been surveilling for 6 months? And assigning one of the most potentially compromised analysts in their employ to surveil him, and they only actually realize this after their first huge clusterfuck attempt?

He fails to realize he lives in a nazi world because he’s that much of an idiot, risks his friends lives and possibly more in all this just because the girl he simps on doesn’t want to fuck him. He gets pissy he’s not considered a superhero when he murders anyone in his way brutally and has no actual sense of right or wrong. Every bit of suffering in this season is all earned.

Gunn never wanted or meant for Adrian to become a fan favorite. In fact, he wanted Waller's daughter to become popular since that lead into what his ideas for the Waller TV series were originally. And, of course, he wanted his wife to become a real key player so other people would have to cast her, not just him inserting her character whether it fit or not.

The cops didn't kill Chris and Harcourt and no one shot Adebayo. They were innocent. I don't care if you are a nazi or a communist or a jew. If you don't go around killing people, you don't deserve to die. Why are Americans and euros so obsessed with killing people based on their ideology?

Vigilante used to be such a proactive character, man. He just stumbles his way into a glowie operation and ends up being more useful than the actual triggerman they were working with.
Then he goes to jail just to try and assassinate Auggie after simply hearing someone muse that Chris probably won't be happy while his father's still alive.
The only thing he's done with any agency this season is meet his alternate self.
If this is truly the end of the Peacemaker series, I hope a Vigilante spinoff gets pitched by someone who feels the same way I do about how fucked over this character got in S2.

Sadly, we're not getting tv shows.
Everyone bitched and moaned about the DCW and the DC shows on HBO Max, like Doom Patrol and Titans, but we'll be lucky if we get two shows a year, and one will tie in directly to a movie, in the same way that Penguin tied into Batpatinson, and the Dune series tied into those movies.
If we're very lucky, we might get a Jimmy series and the Terrific series out of Superman, but I doubt we will get two.
So the best you can hope for is that Vigilante would appear on a show like that.

I like that some productions are allowed to push the envelope more though. The MCU for the longest time (outside of Netflix) wouldn't budge on TV-MA or R Rated productions. Some characters like Punisher or Peacemaker need that extra leeway
>>
>>150671601
Not saying Peacemaker is part of the MCU, I was using the MCU as an example of what happens when a rating stranglehold is placed on a universe
>>
>>150671593
I didn't mean that, but that's still like 3-4 episodes of drawing out a reveal everyone already know.
>>
>>150671572
I mean, the basis for the theory was “Peacemaker’s Neo-Nazi dad was a hero in this universe” and everyone ran with that. The only twist was that he didn’t like Nazis and was actually a decent person in Earth X which is something someone speculated in the episode 6 thread. It’s not exactly a groundbreaking series of twists.

This season felt awfully paced. I saw the twist coming as well, which didn't help it. You could have cut half the content and got to the twist half way through the season leaving a bunch of time to do more stuff. Instead we had a LOT of wheel spinning earlier in the season which didn't really pay off. A few jokes here and there but mostly "everyone is in the shit post season 1" stuff being repeated.

I mean, that's totalitarianism in a nutshell but that's just how it rolls. Religion will always pose an ideological threat to the state (outside of a theocracy where it is the state) and a totalitarian state wants a monopoly on that shit. It's the same reason why the marxists crack down hard on that shit. Hitler *did* use religion as a way to solidify the establishment and keep the people on board but that was always a transitional tool. The end goal was always to phase it out.
>>
>>150673119
I thought it was fine overall but it's hard to ignore how it feels like Gunn planned the season out as a component of his DC universe and made everything feel stretched out as a result.

You people always give the Nazis way too much credit and honesty I think that's part of why people aren't recognizing them today.
They weren't masterminds crafting a purposeful image of their perfect society, though they definitely wanted people to believe that.
They were meth'd out populist assholes, grifters, and profiteers all working their own angles.
Religion wouldn't be gone in a world where nazis won ww2 because it's never not a good angle for a con.

It could just that he was a fuckup, what with the pills and shit. There's a fuckton of bottles in Chris X's dresser drawer when OG Chris is wearing his clothes. Harcourt X alludes to them breaking up because she criticized his driving. Chris X could've just been fucked up by fame and having his ego stroked at every corner feeding the worst aspects of his personality without having any impetus for personal growth and improvement like OG Chris had after he killed OG Rick Flag Jr.
>>
>>150673460
It'd be just like when he shoot fucked Amy Schumer. Plus you know he's got bull experience from all the times he fucked Jim Cornette's slam pig of a wife to get over in OVW. Big Match John would put on a 5 star classic - he's got all the tools to make the main event a night to remember..

Dumbass, I literally said it wasn't the conflict but should have been
And "toxic influence" lmao go back to tumblr
>>
>>150676606
>>150676629
What? It was set up as the conflict though. "What will Chris decide to do?" was set up as the main thing the show was going to confront until he actually did make the choice and left the world behind through the portal.
It's just that if you then thought it was going to continue to be the main question, with Chris' friends having to convince him home is what matters, that didn't happen. And you can be disappointed about that, or you can just accept that was never the story that was going to be told because Nazi world and not belonging there is easier OR it's actually more interesting to say shit falls apart around Chris, depending how charitable you want to be to Gunn's writing.
It's a bit of a stretch to say everything falls apart because Chris is so toxic, though. In a hypothetical world where Chris closed the portal behind him, he might have been stuck in Nazi world and possibly have had to deal with Judomaster, but there's no reason to think he couldn't have lived the rest of his life happily there. With the Nazis.

Peacemaker destroys the happy version of his family with his ego and selfishness. There is no justification for stealing his doppelganger's life even if killing Peacemaker X was an accident and the guy was a nazi prick.
Auggie X dies and Keith X suffers horrifically because of the selfish choices Chris made, and Adebayo was right there telling him the right thing to do beforehand.

The sets themselves are also generally very boring. ARGUS's... HQ? Field office? We never really get the idea of which it is, but the HQ being in driving distance of Peacemaker's house would be just as weirdly contrived as all of the essential shit for the Butterfly invasion also being in driving distance of his house.
Anyway, ARGUS looks like a mid level advertising agency's office. Belle Reeve in TSS looked much more interesting. Even if it was a bit of a standard prison, it was still filled with oddities and points of interest that made me want to see more of it, like Ratcatcher's cell with the rats drawn on the walls or some of the inmates milling around like Calendar Man.

I feel like in S1 the soundtrack was more meant to invoke Peacemaker as a character: that he was a one-note joke no one actually took seriously, which is why the soundtrack was largely one-hit-wonder hair metal bands. S2 is more about his insecurities and place in the world, so the soundtrack reflects that more

there was definitely a lot cut out

there was also a cut sub plot about alt murn with the sons of liberty which could also explain why they pretty much disappeared after episode 3

Think about how many people unironically believe that Trump is a fascist, yet, they do nothing but whine on the internet about it.

A lot of people just want OTHER people to die so that they can get what they want. That is why so many people were happy when Kirk was killed. Someone else did what they wanted for them. No, they will never risk a single thing themselves, but they are convinced that they are in a war against Hitler and hope they can watch other people kill the people they dislike while they watch a twitch stream of it. They are cowards

Black militants people used to say that the revolution will not be televised for a reason.

Christ, what a fucking mess of a season. If I were Gunn, I wouldn't be so transparent about all of these shortcomings. Why was so much shit cut? You're the head of the fucking studio! You can't give your own projects some more breathing room?
Instead half the season is just ARGUS retards trying to get the portal and repeatedly failing for contrived reasons.

Because having everyone be dumb and wacky is like, PEAK comedy my guy! Imagine if instead of saying something coherent, they said something stupid! "how many legs do spiders have?" Uh zero duh?

Vigilante did.
>>

not a self insert, but the person who designed him did base his hair on gunns so you're half right
>>
>>150681404
That's a massive stretch considering Frank Grillo has had the same haircut for like 15 years now.
MAYBE if Gunn had pulled every possible string to ensure Flag Sr. had gray hair in live action, but he seemed to not actually give too much of a shit.

Are we going to have to wait until the Waller series that may or may not even be happening to learn when exactly she was ousted, and why? She was still leading ARGUS despite the Task Force X leak in Creature Commandos.
>>
>>150681553
Do we need something to spell it out? The end of season one press conference would make her a PR disaster so she got fired from ARGUS to appease the public and shuffled away to something else without public exposure

He's deployed the military in three cities and the latest signal leak involves deploying literal paratroopers in Portland

At what point do you just accept that this is a fascist coup? Do we have to get all the way to cancelled elections?

This is almost by design btw.
Henry Kissinger fucking creamed himself when the internet was unveiled and social media was taking off because he saw it as a perfect tool for pacifying an angry public. Including the notion that people would be lazier because of how their own online circlejerks would make them think that they had more power over something than they actually did by virtue of letting everyone get the backlash out of their systems.
More people need to know about what Kissinger's books from later in his life actually say because he had a similar reaction to a lot of stuff from vidya to smartphones to AI. The man basically spent his later years perfecting the methodology through which a government could exercise non-aggressive control.

You ignored the last sentence.
She was still leading ARGUS, but created Task Force M because she wasn't allowed to use humans after the Task Force X leak.
If she was shitcanned because of the leak, why did it take well over a year for it to happen?

Didn't they said she had a hearing at the start of this season, so technically not ousted yet?

To dismiss them as incompetent does a disservice to history, just like commies they were a retarded ideology doomed to failure but they were highly effective at monopolizing force and consolidating their power. It's not even the first totalitarian regime that tried to phase out religion, both the Soviets and CCP did their best to stamp it out and made sure whatever that was left was a neutered version completely subservient to the state. The Nazis would have almost certainly followed the same playbook if they managed to continue on because they were cut from the same cloth.

It's 7 episodes and at least good on a binge. The main problem it has is sorta the same issue Peacemaker season 2 has, where the main plot clearly exists solely to push the character moments forward, but not much thought was actually put into the main plot to make it feel right the more you think about it.
Main highlights are the character backstories and the character chemistry.
>>
>>150686025
>To dismiss them as incompetent does a disservice to history
Eat shit, it's just the opposite. All the media portraying nazis as a mastermind monolith blinded people to the power-grabbing con men in our own midst. People like you thinking the nazis were some unified idealistic force are a large part of why people refuse to accept what's happening in the US today.
>>
>>150680496
The plotting in general is just way weaker. I feel like Gunn had the idea of "Peacemaker finds another universe where his family's alive, but it turns out it's Nazi world and he can't stay" and then just had to come up with the rest of the season off of that. Vigilante did nothing but cameo in Peacemaker's scenes and help him do chores until he went through the portal in episode 6 of 8. Harcourt spent over half the season doing literally nothing except starting bar fights while we waited for her season arc to begin. We've had sitcom-length episodes and, even with that, they've still been mostly filler. Meanwhile the actual plot is just way clunkier. Peacemaker getting into a car chase with the cops and just driving into an empty lot and getting surrounded for no discernable reason except so that his family can show up seconds later and rescue him? "Because the plot needs it" is the biggest motivating factor for every character this season.

The character stuff is still fun. Economos, Fleury, and Vigilante have been standouts this season, and despite Judomaster immediately becoming a turbo-flanderized version of his already flimsy character in S2, the actor's delivered some funny lines at least. The show, on the whole, is just a significant quality drop from S1.

>>150686544
It was a totalitarian regime that was effective in instituting a totalitarian regime. Their governing policies were retarded and ultimately caused their downfall just like the Soviets but you have to be genuinely retarded to think they just bumbled their way into being the most cutthroat authoritarian regimes to exist.
>>
>>150686025
I don't think that anon suggested they were incompetent, just that they weren't as brilliant and skilled as people think they were.
>>
>>150687141
Who is saying they were brilliant? They were scarily effective but only in the sense of how they set up the regime in the same way Stalin was scarily effective in consolidating his power but I still recognize that Soviet Communism and German National Socialism are beyond retarded. These are people who only knew how to powergrab and keep it for as long as possible, everything else was a failure.
