Just incredible dogshit
If this was how they wanted to end it, why wait until the whole series was 98% done to put this stuff into motion
Season 5 could have been better EVEN WITH this abysmal path they took. It's like at Ep 6 they realised there were 2 one hour episodes left and they had to wrap it up -- and even then it was fumbled
Utter dogshite. But I expected nothing better. Every show in recent memory has disappointed. TLoU S1 was ok and AKOT7K was based. Besides that, it's over. TV is done

It's such a waste they killed homelander directly after he becomes human
I wanted to see how he behaves as a human and how he lives and walks the street or interacts with people in this form
Or how we didn't see homelander kill civilians and become mad at all, we should have had at least a few scenes about that
>>
>>220620550
Played things a bit too safe honestly but otherwise it was a serviceable ending that didn't retroactively ruin things forever. I'd have gone for a little bit more distraught Butcher, perhaps drunk, in the tower to sell the Lenny moment a bit more loudly. The frenchi ghost was a bit corny but I did like what it was going for.

Baffled they didn't use that shot of Butcher's tombstone for the final shot. I'd have rearranged things so that the gang's final moment together would at MM's wedding, roll in the recruitment and allude to Kimiko going to France for Frenchie while they're there and have Hughie and Annie discuss their future while dropping off flowers for Butcher. Montage of the world moving along to the piano man that finally lands on the shot of Butcher's epitaph and black out to the song finishing over the credits.

Why would Homelander even beg for his life if he's powerless? His life was having powers?

>>220620550

From what I can tell with the actual finale, nothing

Season 5 had a ton of problems to do with set up taking way too much time away from more important matters, but the final episode had none of it, and it could focus on doing what it needed to do
>>
>no Ryan/Firecracker /ss/
>>
>>
>>220620735
Nah, he wasn't shown at all after getting put in a fucking box again. He is now the strongest supe in the world by far (again) but his exact status is unknown. Vought Rising is probably going to be a better call Saul kind of prequel/sequel. Presumably documenting Vought's rise both in the past and in the future after Homelanders regime.

He's a water-based superhero or whatever, so it's his element. He could at least use the water against her electric powers or get all the marine animals to attack her or some shit.

I mean, at least being punched into water can't hurt him can it? So surely he came back and raped her to death, right?

>yet is a kiddy diddling villain
You people really need to actually watch the show. The kiddy diddling comment by Butcher was quite literally just him throwing darts in the dark to upset soldier boy. The only thing he had to back it up was gunpowder reporting Soldier boy for abusing him. Which we know from Noirs flashbacks that it just was Soldier Boy beating the shit out of him.
>>
>>220620885
They already loved him being violent and killing a robber in the first fucking episode. The only people that hated him were outside the USA
>>
>>220620905
*upset gunpowder
>>
>>220620845
Yeah, but like, how would even get one without his power. If anything he should know best he's never getting another shot again.

>>220620874
That only adds to my point, least he could do is deprive Butcher from satisfaction of letting him kill him himself. His life is worthless without his powers so why wouldn't he throw it away.
>>
>>220620905
he diddled gunpowder https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqkF9gE_IFY

I think I'm happy having not watched any of season 5
Season 4 ended fairly well all things considered

>>220620885
They loved him as an American hero. He was going around calling himself a god now.

The show makes homelander seem like no threat at all, it seems like a small nuke could get rid of him and even the shitty power developped by soldier boy and asspulled by kimiko also looks like a mini nuke anyways. Even meruem who got rekt by a mini nuke literally outmatched anyone in his verse while homelander can't stop getting fucked by random people.

I said it in other episodes, but it would had been amazing to see more of this universe's happening as the plot was developing. The show broke the golden rule of media "Show, don't tell" which made everything land flat. We could have had a civil war out there, or more shit like with Firecracker and her Youth Pastor. Instead we got DogKnott and Sheline sniffing each other asses.

The complete destruction of Iran, the timely completion of Greater Israel and its ascension as world hegemon courtesy of the greatest golem the world has ever seen — Homelander. Having been activated by the secret promised 3000 year old hebrew code word (ordained by g-d, unbeknownst to any Vought or American govt officials), ethnically cleansing the levant, Anatolia, and everything in between. Until at last the third temple is erected with the rest of the hapless goyim in their cattle pods doing the bidding of g-ds chosen and tikkun olam is achieved. Finally a politically, talmudically, and biblically accurate show of satire. Bravo Kripke! Drumpf BTFO.

Well with homelander out of the picture, the world can return back to normal and hopefully achieve a status quo that's similar to Invincible where you have actual supes who save people and stuff
That's kinda what Hughie was driving at when he stopped Butcher from killing all supes, acting as sort of a gray morality against an all or nothing approach, but they kinda fucked up the ending by not letting him take the supe affairs job

They dont spend enough time on anything. The fight with homelander should have been longer, it felt cheap seeing them hardly hurt eachother then homelander gets blasted and he becomes pathetic for a minute then dies. Its supposed to be the payoff and they didn't go all out.

them verbally abusing Homelander all the time kind of made it pointless and weirdly made him more sympathetic over the course of the show

people say some mad cruel shit to him all the time and he basically never reacts to any of it
Stan Edgar, Hughie, Butcher, Ryan, Maeve etc.
and he never snaps, them wanting to humiliate him verbally all the time just ended up making him more likeable for people

>How is she flying through the air without a battery pack on her hip?
Based on Season 4's finale, I think the writers were trying to imply that it was a mental block, because she didn't awaken her full potential until she saw Huey get captured. I believe that the trauma of the event was enough to "awaken" her powers, Super Saiyan style. It's stupid. But it's the only logical conclusion for how she suddenly got so much stronger.

Big problem with the show is the power levels are inconsistent as fuck. We're told Homelander is super powerful and no weapon on Earth could kill him. Then we see him getting punched out by punches that have no impact.
We're suppose to believe a guy who can tank bomb blasts that could level buildings is getting knocked down by a normal punch? I'd expect punches strong enough to harm him to release fucking shockwaves that topple buildings at the minimum.

Likewise, in the same episode we see Homelander fly some Elon Musk insert to space in like half a second. That means he flew 120 miles in like a second. Yet he is apparently too slow to escape Butchers tentacles and couldn't just fly away from being depowered?

Shit has no consistency at all. It's obvious they got no budget and the writers all gave up years ago so now all we get is fart jokes.

They had a perfect setup for this too. Starlight leaking the flight video would have been the perfect excuse for Homelander to snap. His image is ruined and everyone 100% knows he's a monster now. So he can stop pretending and cut loose.

I haven't watched the full show, are Stan and all the Vought Designer-Baby Staff even the nannny figure, all total fucking assholes by program design? Or are they just individually the types of pricks who decide a 3 year old orphan is evil and choose to degrade and deprive him daily? Because it would make sense if this was the intent of the program, treat him this way to make him a bigger monster (and any time he negotiates with you throughout his entire life, repeatedly reduce him into his most vulnerable wounded inner-child state while directly blaming him for needing what you actively keep from him even in these moments where everyone chooses catastrophic verbal abuse)?
Because if that's part of the program, that's actually realistic and it's what Dr. Henry A. Murray did to Ted Kaczynski at Harvard to turn him into the Unabomber

>>220621711
I don’t think the writer understood he accidentally gave homelander a sympathetic backstory with him being coldly raised as a lab experiment.
It’s like Todd Phillips apparently thinking people would watch Joker, point and laugh and Arthur the whole way through, and then be glad he went to jail. Poor guy was left scratching his head when most viewers enjoyed watching Arthur shoot people

>>220622530
yeah thats part of why the ending felt bad. you cant paint homelander crying like a hurt child as a victory when you literally set him up as a victim of dr mengele child torture. but they also played hughie being raped as a joke so its no surprise.

>>220622516
Yes you’re correct, there is heavy handed scene in the show where he confronts all the experimenters and kills them and the main lady says they were all following orders from her, Stan Edgar and the guy. There’s a scene earlier with butcher confronting the other guy and he says homelander was a sweet young boy but there’s not that they wanted

Don't make me namedrop 'Dr. Henry A. Murray' repeatedly in these threads. What they did to Homelander, is real, they got the idea from reality, and you can look up Dr. Henry A. Murray to figure that out, and its entirely relevant to you. Understanding of what happened there and what HAS been happening, will open avenues to not just total spiritual clarity, but a physical resurrection of your true self. And no, I as a matter of fact am not kidding.

>it barely looked less cheap than the rest of the season
i'd say it looked even cheaper than the rest of the season. the final climax consisted of i think at most 2 whitehouse room sets and 1 hallway, barely any special vfx except a few laser beams and then smashing a bunch of dry wall. even in the bombsight episode they had the extravagance of a random barn and they shout 1 scene in a field
>>
I don't know about you guys but I feel there's no way in hell that this is actually the finale despite it being posited as such. Give it 5 to 10 years and there'll be a mainline sequel to deal with a new threat set up in the spin offs.

Well the trick is to burn the shithouse down on the way out, the soil's just no good after this many harvests, according to the calendar which has kept us alive for thousands of years. It's the traditional slash and burn method which is still used to this day. And then you can return to the old soil when it is naturally renewed, as per the calendar.

Can somebody give me a QRD on what happened?
It's been so bad that I don't want to watch it, but I'm curious how they decided to put that steaming pile of shit to rest.

The treatment of Homelander in the final episode reminds me of how Hitler was treated in Wolfenstein 2 The New Colossus. They make him incredibly feeble and weak and he's pissing and shitting himself, in the previous games you had Hitler in a fucking mech laying waste to everything.

This need to humiliate bad guys in media is becoming fetishistic. It's not enough to have the good guys win, the bad guys must be made as pathetic as possible. I swear The Joker movie buck broke the entire entertainment industry, perhaps Senator Armstrong in Metal Gear Rising Revengeance as well as far as games are concerned. God forbid people like your villain.

I do get what you're saying but the whole point of HL was that he has a fragile ego and would be a complete bitch without his powers. That's how they wrote him from the start. Him being weak with the V1 is retarded but him being a pussy when powerless is okay

>>220621233
AOT's ending is just beyond garbage, Atleast The Boys is decently shit
>>
>>220622966
Because that's where 'we like Homelander to be'. Its the main tragedy of his character, in his struggling search for recovery from wounded inner child, he is sentenced to constant reduction back to that wounded inner child due to how unstable his attempts at recovery are (these attempts being actually balanced adaptations to the inhumanely cruel conditions in which he was born). The tragedy of course, is that these unstable conditions which produced such an unstable man, sentenced to prison in his own destroyed inner child, were deliberately caused by the very system which judges him for these crimes.
Right?

He was almost always obsessed with his image and what others thought of him. I can't see him offering to suck a dick or eat shit in that scenario. It's not that he begged for his life, it's that they made him do it in the most degrading and pathetic way possible. He could have cried out for his Daddy to come save him and it'd have been less embarrassing. It's a character assassination in his final moments.

That's how collective consciousnesses works, an artist sets out to do something strange, because its an interesting public mystery in the first place, and then he releases it and everybody ranges from thrilled to pissed to confused and everything else, himself included. Then they put a camera in front of him and he says 'yeah I don't know i'm confused with the results of this experimental film especially because i put an evil clown with a gun in there' and everyone's pissed again! Why don't we just level and admit we saw what we saw and it's complicated!

Yes that’s a fancy way of explaining why the ending is shit and wildly unsatisfying from a story perspective. I’ve not watched it but I’m reading that Stan Edgar, one of the three characters directly responsible for the creation/abuse of homelander, is right back at the top too lmao

How is Starlight agreeing to suck his dick and regretting it later rape? She could have just said no since there are Supes who don't work for Vought. More like Starfucker.

Which is to say, niggers stay stupid because they know being smart means paying up. Any drug addict knows this. The price of recovery is withdrawal, and it is WAY more painful than another shot of whatever's making you stupid. Get it?

Yeah you can actually watch reality seep in to that tired old dream-film, like holes in the film showing coffee cups and shitty gossip in the green room. Watch characters turn into actors in real-time, if a show goes on long enough. Scenes turn into sets, it's wild. Actual filmic entropy
