>I must kill billions so I can... read my book in peaceI don't get it, can't she just lock her door and read in peace in her bunker anyway?
>>220358560Kripke said that her plans are supposed to be as asinine as Trump's plans.
even for a nigger she's ugly
>>220358560am burstin for a shite mate
looks like a toad
>>220358560Turns out she isn't very smart. Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhocking.
>>220358560You're talking about a "genius" who pokes her brain with a knife to get off. This character wasn't very well thought out and is a prime example of why you should write genius characters unless you are also a genius.If she wanted to read it piece, go buy a gun, steal a boat and go find an uninhabited island
Imagine being invested in """"adult""" capeshit
>>220358560She's just like me. I cant focus on anything because of all the wars and stuff going in the world Because of the war in the 'kraine my GPA was 0.3
>>220358560From her country of origin?
>>220358654well my tax dollars fund this shit
>>220358657Have you considered just turning your PC off?
>>220358645Not everyone can write a character using a magical transponder/ radio transmitter that didn't exist back then like the badly written movie No Country for Old Men. Only retards like that shitty movie and think "geniuses wrote a genius character"
nigs and jeets really love this show huh, otherwise why would threads about it be on this board constantly?
>>220358560>I always knew where you were because I am... le smart>yes, I called Soldier Boy here so the crackers can fight because I am... le smart>what do you mean he's giving Homelander the immortality juice? I had Ashley read his mind so I know he loves his son but I didn't see this coming because I am... le smart.
>>220358580Does Kripke think Trump is a genius?
bros hear me out...
>>220358858He doesn't. Sage is stupid and has stupid plans just like Trump. It's pretty accurate
>>220358560Niggers cannot read
>>220358891i would
>smartest black woman in the world>not that smartHuh?
>>220359247Smart for a black, not smart.
>>220359247Smart for a woman, not smart
>>220358560Other than the ugly hairstyle and costume, I don't see the problem. Her high flat nose makes her quite cute, and I unironically think her eyes are really pretty.
>>220358692So this is the new Reddit cringe meta response to valid criticism?
>>220358560Doors don't work against supes in this show.
>>220358654As opposed to being invested in other forms of fiction?
>>220358560Not defending the shit writing, but being intelligent doesn't make you successful. Some of the smartest people on Earth are just weird spergs who play chess or study something like history or physics. She's been dragged into Machiavellian schemes but has zero interest in them.
>smartest character is the black characterHow many supe characters like this do we have?
>be non american>watch an american show>CURRENT PRESIDENT slopI'm tired, boss.
>>220358677No, he’s the smartest man alive why would he think of that?
>>220358560One of the stupidest things was butcher saying that bombsight would come because they have his gook. Then they ask if hes coming and sage makes a matter fact statement that he will repeating what butcher had said but it was her idea
>>220358645>you should write genius characters unless you are also a genius.Not that I meant to imply the bitch in OP's image is a compelling character, but this specifically is one of the most retarded things you people parrot. Can't write a genius because you're not one, so you don't know how they think. Can't write an athlete because you're not one, so you don't know how they train. Can't write a wizard because they don't exist, so you don't know magic. Stop being retarded.
>>220359581The Sister Sage storyline really suffers from the lack of Vought and the corporate system as a real antagonistic force in the show. The comics had a lot of problems, but they really hit home the corporate horror element, the show more or less ignores it. When we have Vought as a corporate beast, it makes total sense that they'd 'nope' her attempts to save her grandma, and then later it makes sense that she'd want to wreck the whole world to get them to leave her alone.
>>220360527the whole "corporate horror" thing died in its crib when they turned james into madelyn, made her terrified of homelander, killed her in season 1, then made a second james in edgar and sidelined him forever.
>>220360466I don't know about "can't" but you really probably shouldn't. Authors get ripped to shreds frequently for not doing basic research on stuff and just winging it. You don't have to get a PhD in what you're writing about but you do need to do some decent research. You also don't need to be a genius to write a genius but you better have some level of intelligence or run it by someone or several people that do Studios literally have people dedicated to research and hire consultants aka people who have actually experienced the shit you are writing about
>>220360562Honestly I think the Madelyn storyline was the only time it did work. She was handling Homelander, and doing well at it until Butcher kicked things into 11th gear. Everything after that was a crapshoot. Some Stan Edgar stuff was fine (and the actor tried his best), but it really just made the lack of it everywhere else more obvious.
>>220360577>You also don't need to be a genius to write a genius but you better have some level of intelligence or run it by someone or several people that doIsn't that just a basic rule of writing? If you don't fully understand the shit you wanna write about, research it until you do, or work with people who do to make sure it makes sense. The whole "you literally can't write a character who's smarter than you" crap people constantly parrot online is just completely stupid. A good writer who wants their story to feel real will spend weeks or months making sure their super-duper-smart character's reasoning makes sense. Just like they'd do the exact same thing if they were writing about astronauts, or firefighters, or whatever.
>>220358580How can Trump be both a petulant manchild that thinks impulsively but also some master tactician that plans for everything except the points of interest that would throw everything to shit?
>>220358891cute
>>220360693>also some master tactician that plans for everythingHe isn't. Others do that for him. Stephen Miller, for example.
>>220358560This thread is proof this board is full of normies and redditors typing out their first nigger
>>220358560Such an awful, awful character. She was annoying from the start, with her thin skinned insistence on "smartest person" and her retarded identity politics. "Genius" characters are notoriously difficult to write, and she reeks of DEI-hire woman writing.I think was included as fiat for Homlander's takeover to succeed. If so, it was the wrong decision.Anything she contributed could have been replaced by dumb luck or shrewdness on the part of Homelander (which we have seen him be capable of before).
>>220358692>screenplay written by Cormac McCarthy has le bad writingI really wouldn't want to die on that hill, anon.
>>220359128Sage is objectively a genius. At least that's what the show is saying, she's the smartest person ever.
>>220358560The idea of an intelligent black being only possible with super powers is a self own.
>>220360562>>220360652Short-sighted writing has plagued this show. If some shit (the exposure of The Boys' identities, Becca, whatever tf s3's ending was supposed to be) had been more planned out and better paced, they might not have been left with all of these characters that have nothing to do.
>>220358891Gross
>>220361036Also Stillwell and Newman's deaths
>>220360916>Anything she contributed could have been replaced by dumb luck or shrewdness on the part of Homelander (which we have seen him be capable of before).In season one they showed us that he was running a global distribution network to get V to various groups in order to create supervillains, and he was doing it without anyone at Vought even suspecting what was happening. It was the major plot point of that whole season. That was interesting, they just barely did anything with it.
>>220358560>>I must kill billions so I can... read my book in peaceShe hated humanity ever since doctors let her grandma die.
>>220361067>they just barely did anything with it.they did negative things with it. that plot thread is annihilated in the first episode of season 2 when they simply kill all the supervillains.
>>220360693Progressive brain rot just can't get around this. Every one of their boogie men falls into the problem of being simultaneously a complete laughable joke yet somehow the greatest threat ever known to humanity.It's also a strong contributing factor to why their fiction is now so horrible. They can't write compelling antagonists at all as a result.
reading the wiki for this character, insufferable>racism>racism>racism>did i forget to mention I am obsessed with racismgod what a fucking horrible person
>>220358891believe me, you're just lonelyhave some self respect
>>220360693>>220361194
>>220358560I feel bad for the actress, she's done a decent job it's not her fault the writers are retarded, but people are giving her shit for it
It is weird to me Sage thinks that once the virus is released supes that aren’t immediately infected are gonna genocide humans in return and the Boys haven’t once thought that a possibility or atleast aren’t planning for it. ‘Omelanda must die is pretty much all they think about.
>>220361499She actually does say that they'll try to genocide the humans. She just doesn't care because she'll be in her bunker reading Ludwig Wittgenstein. And earlier someone also said that if the virus was released somewhere not close to Homelander, HL would just fly into space and start lasering shit until it seems safe to come back down.
>>220361544It would be a funny ending if they kill Homelander but in between every supe being virused and dying the supes wipe out 90% of humanity too.
>>220360693The enemy is both weak and strong
>>220358560She can only be defeated by the collective power of the Book Force Power Rangers!
>>220360562the more the show veered from the comic the worse it got...it became a series of forgotten storylines never revsisted or handwaved away for the sake of *toketoke*do you know what would make a cool scene*exhale*it can't be over soon enough
>>220358891Let's see her with her real hair
>>220358560The genius in me would like to believe she's a misanthropic anarchist bullshiting everyone and just wants everyone to die not for reading but because she's just a bitch but knowing these retard Jew writers, she's just retarded and actually just wants to eat Taco Bell and read like a quirky chungus.
>>220362074
>>220358580>it's bad on purposefucking LIAR
>>220358580I voted for Trump, he has plans?
>>220358580Wait, she's also Trump? Is every character Trump in this show? Like some amalgem of a Trump godhead's fractured aspects? Each embodying a different strawman?
>>220358560Shush. The writers are retarded.
>>220358891The face tho
>>220358560she was chosen by homelander and its vought who says she's the smartest. neither are good sources.
>>220358560>I don't get it, can't she just lock her door and read in peace in her bunker anyway?lol that's like woman 101, some man somewhere could be having FUN or something, can't have that happen when you're sitting in a bunker all alone
>>220358580so...Trump thinks like a black girl?
>>220364054>self-conscious about his weave>very good fashion sense>very loud and boisterous>chimps out at the slightest criticism>loves to hang out with other black women>fawns over big strong white menI'm seeing the comparison now
>>220361544She couldn't even pronounce Wittgenstein properly, and LW was a midwit, Popper was the true genius.
>>220359128That sounds like piss poor writing>give someone superpowers that makes them the smartest person in the world>showcase them as being one of the dumbest people insteadAshley's conflict makes more sense, since it's two minds in one body
>>220360968>uhhh I don’t want to die on a hill against a wannabe Faulkner and uhhh uhhh the judge like Le raped the kid and he’s like super bad so you can’t complain against goodest writing like that
>>220358560>I don't get it, can't she just lock her door and read in peace in her bunker anyway?No, she can't read at home because of the ceiling bird.
>>220364222Blood Meridian is an incredible book.
>>220358560she simply too high iq for you to understand
>>220361003They say she is but do not show it. Did she con the world because le people are so predictable!?
Remember when Sherlock got super shitty too and some normies coped they must be writing it badly on purpose? The Boys is at that point right now.
>>220358891She is 43 btw
>>220361373That’s literally what liberals think about Russia
>>220358560goys will never understand
>>220359247>>220359289>>220359300Haven't you ever heard of Emotional Intelligence? Maybe she's really good at crying.
>>220360693>but also some master tactician that plans for everythingNobody thinks this anymore, not even MAGA
How did this crap get five seasons?>>220364490Damn
>>220364165*PopclawFucking retard
She needs a nerdy white boyfriend
>>220365221This. Ideally he should be a chemical engineering grad student.
why do all black women kinda look like pepe
>>220358560Shes a nigger, of course she wants to kill people.
>>220365221She had an old white guy who wanted to be inside a black college girl's body, but he went pop.
>>220358580that's pretty based, ngl
>>220358580Leftist have no functional theory of mind for anyone they disagree with which always results in this retarded "everyone I hate is just randomly doing shit" cope without them realizing that they are just too sociopathic to be able to emphatize with others and too low IQ to make basic observations. Life must be so confusing and scary when you are a leftoid.
>>220358580>Trump is a nigger Lowkirkenuenly true
>>220358580>The smartest nigger in the world is as dumb as TrumpIsnt that a bad thing though? Isnt it making fun of Sister Sage then? But the show does the exact opposite and makes her seem like a genius with her constantly outsmarting everyone. Shouldnt they have of made Sister Sage a white dude if that was the case? Im getting mixed messages here.
>>220365358"pepe" means vagina in Filipino
>>220358560she's black AND american, what can you expect.
>>220367111
People in the Boys universe are way dumber on average so Sage being the smartest person on Earth is the equivalent of an average human IRL, simple.
