You do know Homelander was one of the bad guys, right?
>>220666279only retarded chuds that have no media literacy and thought homelander was cool and badass are mad about it
>>220666279His death was mediocre
I don't know why sucking duck and eating shit is supposed to upset rightoids. I mean they support Nick Fuentes, Peter Thiel and the most boy-hungry man in the Senate Lindsay Graham.
>>220666329Correct! Vaught continuing as usual under the same management and with ten thousand supes still is a good thing!
>>220666279It dehumanizes a Victim of torture.
He’s literally trump. Chuddies couldn’t imagine their orange god begging to suck dick and war shit
>>220666386But Trump sucks jew dick constantly, and rightoids can't get enough of it!
>>220666349Destiny was sucking Nicks dick. Not the same.
>>220666279its controversial because it was lazy. the writers clearly wanted to completely deconstruct homelander but they didn't know how to do it within the context of the character. instead, it was just >what if butcher was the liberal and homelander was the chud and the chud just cried like a babyits the studio production version of "heh, I drew you as the wojak"some people on here are angry that their self-insert superchud lost, others are angry that they watched 5 seasons of this show and thats all they got for it>>220666380would you have preferred they forcefully bring him to therapy to deal with his trauma? when victims become monsters, they're still monsters
>>220666363I’m talking about his death scene specifically
>>220666466They should have done the comic ending where Homelander was just an idiot who got gaslit into acting the part of a psychopath by an actual psychopath.
>>220666279Alton Brown on Cutthroat Kitchen once said, “if I give you a can of green beans, do not just serve me green beans on a plate”. That’s what they did. They didn’t even attempt to elevate the genre or subvert the formula. They just spent five seasons villainizing him and then killed him. It should have been just one season if that was the goal and it should have been marketed to preteens because that’s who most enjoys formulaic stories without deviation.
I don't mind the death or the grovellingI care how we got here. S5 is terribly written.
Hughes, you really are... a spittin' on muh dick.
>>220666439Dude, Fuentes has been fucked in every hole by Peter Thiel.
>>220666536Which is funny because they had the subversion right there in the source material but purposely chose not to adapt it.
I like how most people here tuned out by season 2 at the latest, yet you constantly see loon troons posting about this ending totally owned the chuds because he's Trump to reassure themselves everyone isn't just mocking and laughing at it
>>220666758*owning
>>220666279This is just like my favorite superhero movies where the good guy defeats the bad guy.
>>220666279Killing Homelander isn't the problem. The reason the suck dick / eat shit copypasta is a thing now is because everyone is roasting the juvenile gay jewish writer's dialogue. It's like back in STD when that fat retard said "fuck" and then /trek/ had a day posting edits of classic Star Trek scenes with swearing in them.
>>220666808Everyone knows this. The usual suspects are just being disingenuous because they can't accept how poorly their epic ownage failed
If Homelander had survived Noir do you think he would have redeemed himself, or at least flown into the sun or something?Also, regarding the TV adaptation, is there any particular reason he didn't go "scorched earf" by the end? Kinda seems like both endings stopped short of really going anywhere definitive. I get that Butcher and Hughie were the protagonists and their endings were the focal point, but it seems so strange to invest so much time into an antagonist and then fumble both endings for him in a rushed slop of Robin stew.
>>220667204
>>220666279>two episodes before this he lets a Jew Hollywood agent leave because he actually was nice to Homelander for onceWhy would you continuously humanize him if you’re going to make his death a punchline? He should’ve just been a unrepentant evil turd the entire season, as it stands, Black Noir 2 is more evil than him, hell, the Deep might be more evil than Homelander
>>220666279Because it tries to be edgy to the point of absurdity. Dumb scenes are regularly ridiculed on this board.>NOOOO, DON'T SUCK MY COCK!>OH NO.....The Boyz is just the latest addition to meme shit, and that is exactly what it is, meme shit.
The left wants whites dead
>>220666279It's just your bog standard rightoid hysteria of the week. Screaming into the void alongside their own fellow cattle is all that they have in life
ive never seen the show, is it just more trump assassination coding?
>Yes hello look this is a pathetic retarded narcissist and>Rightoids: OMG THIS HAS TO BE TRUMP ???
>>220666279Explain how you have the burden
>>220666279So they can show violence like this and the inside of cocks but titties and pussy are off limits?
>>220666279Anthony Starr is a huge jerk IRL, I am surprised he agreed with the assassination of his most memorable role. It is like Mark Hamill in Last Jedi.This is shit but the rape of the joker was far worse.I don't think anyone who watches this actually pays for amazon prime either.
>>220666466>its the studio production version of "heh, I drew you as the wojak"Woah, I think I am liberal now. I could never agree with someone who was portrayed as a crying wojak.Jeff Basedoz just shaped my political beliefs.
>>220666279rape is funny as long as it's against males.
it’s not controversial it’s just surprisingly sad to see. Mostly because the guy that plays homelander is a great actor and seeing the character so vulnerable is shocking
>>220666466At best they could have given him the Compound V1 and it just rips off the ending of Akira where the power becomes too much for Homelander's body... in fact, I thought that's what they were going to do because he shoots giant eye lasers in the sky
>>220667204>>220667255> I’ll kiss you
>>220666279I'm confused, why did Butcher mention Becca on this scene? That stopped being a plot point a long time ago, as a matter of fact Butcher lost any reason to continue fighting when they revealed she was still alive, I know that if I start thinking in every microsecond of this series not a single one makes sense but this one felt very out of place.
>>220668095Nigga, who are you trying to fool? They had Homelander serve McDonald's for fuck's sake.
>>220666279That clip is the first time most of us here has watched this show.
>>220668246Its what a retarded pathetic narcissist would do to appear humble
>>220666279Homelander dying isn't "controversial"Homelander acting like a total baby to the point where he screams "I'LL SUCK YOUR DICK I'LL EAT YOUR SHIT", especially when he knows damn well Butcher isn't interested in that is just ridiculous. Even after his IQ-halving that each season has given him, he's smart enough to know his best bet to stay alive would be along the lines of "I'm no threat to you anymore, I can help you take down Vought and thousands of Supes, I know things, I have intel"We've seen that Homelander, while a nutcase, is still able to stay composed when he's on the back foot - even in this very season when he's locked up by Soldier Boy and completely at his mercy, in severe pain from radiation, he just grits his teeth and keeps pushing through until he's able to escapeEverything we've seen from Homelander, even at his worst (both in terms of the character and the writing of the character), suggests that even though he knows he's about to get fucking killed by Butcher, he wouldn't act like the did. At absolute worst he'd just cry and blubber to get it over with
you guys are literally the only people talking about this. i havent read a single post about it outside of here
>>220666279was it? aren't people just angry that literally nothing happened this season? why didn't homelander go on an actual rampage and instead just tried to have sex with his dad instead
>>220666758For a second I thought there would be a /tv/ thread without someone bringing up trannies out of nowhere. Thank you for your service.
>>220666279Why are christcucks simping for him when he committed the ultimate blasphemy in trying to supplant God and Jesus?
>>220668608Protestant's don't believe in god, let alone jesus anon.
>>220666279Butcher should have Gordon Freeman'd his ass
>>220666279>You do know Homelander was one of the bad guys, right?Literally nobody, not a single person in the world who wasn't already retarded or otherwise mentally impaired, thought HL was not the bad guy. And no, pointing out that the writers intentionally ruined the character after the first season with their TDS, or even agreeing with HL in some instances, is not some kind of failure of muh media literacy or an inability to recognize who the show's Jewish writers *want* everyone to see as a villain. This whole strawman was invented by the shows groupie-esque subreddit after people began to rightfully criticize how the show had strayed from its original story and become an outlet for the show runner's obvious TDS. Then some poopdick Buzzfeed writer ran with it.
>>220668533>bringing up trannies out of nowhereWhen the schizo troon brigade stops flooding the board with their totally epic meme fetish then the calling out of actual troons will subside. If you're upset, blame the mentally ill furries currently smearing the board with their gash infection seepage.
>>220668063>It's just your bog standard rightoid hysteria of the weekThey're not the ones watching the show and complaining.
>>220666279it's because that's not how fulcrums and leverage workyou'd need to pry the crowbar downward in order to create the force to pop the skull like thatjesus i hope somebody got fired for that blunder
>>220666466Holy projection, Batman!
>>220666279I don't think he was bad, he was just fucked up from being raised as a lab experiment and then being the most powerful being on earth
Is there even a point in watching this show now? Is it still enjoyable, or does knowing it's just meant to be the "I hate Trump" show take you out of it?
>>220668647Yes they do. They just have fewer old testament books. Bait or retarded? Protestants ONLY worship Christ and believe in salvation through belief in him. Catholics have to venerate which protestants don't because they read the scripture that says Christ is the mediator, not Mary or and apply their entire dogma to the process of salvation. Protestants largely see veneration as blasphemous. Catholics and Eastern Orthodox Christians ultimately have to adhere to far more than the teachings of Christ for salvation.t. raised Baptist, switched to an Evangelist church that then itself converted to non-denominational protestant, 3 unique Christian Protestant denominations. Also dad was Catholic so I've spent sometime in Mass too. You don't know what you're talking about! Idiot! If anyone form of Christianity doesn't believe in the one True God (Christ and Christ alone) it is the Catholics! Suck my dick and eat my shit!
>>220666279why'd they cut it?
>>220669164There was never a point in it, that has been the entire show since the second season because the writers started seething that people liked their "evil" antagonist. The first season wasn't even that interesting, it was just slightly novel at the time.
>>220669085What about when he let a whole plane crash into the sea without saving a single soul just to protect his image? Is that not bad to you? You can call it a learned behavior or something if you want but he could have at least let Maeve save the girl. He is objectively bad and just because an evil murderer was raised by shit parents doesn't mean they stay out of prison.
>>220669185Christ isn't a god hence the expression protestant's don't believe in it. He is a Son of god no different than the angles/demons(same entities) are creations of god but aren't people since they predate his earthly creations. God lets satan play in his earthly creation at his will to test man and after revelations man will deal with satan's seasons when he is released again ect ect ect. Long game here Christ is not god you believe in the holy trinity when others don't.
>>220666279Leftists love big bureaucracy, so they adamantly reject the idea of USA as war machine boils down to BUREAUCRATIC BEHEMOTH of Pentagon. They deflect, SPIN and misdirect all the warmongering as either ideals ("democracy, freedom"), OR personal whims (DJT). Alt-left brainrot will end up embracing a digital currency that replaces the BANKRUPT USD from all the proliferate war + surveillance racketeering anyway (aka. China 2.0 Supersized.)
>>220669250*profligate
>>220669261It was close enough infact some people see mispelling as a tell agansit AI.
>>220666349I don't know anyone who supports Graham. Maybe retarded Fox News boomers but the right despises him.
>>220666279Fell for it again award
>>220669185>Catholics have to venerateI'm not catholic but I'm gonna give you credit for actually saying venerate instead of worshipCondemning people refusing to venerate icons was an attack on gnosticism, not an attack on people who felt weird about kissing icons.>Catholics and Eastern Orthodox Christians ultimately have to adhere to far more than the teachings of Christ for salvationJesus says that only those who eat his flesh and drink his blood will obtain eternal life and that all must be baptized to join his body.James 2:24 clearly states that we are not justified through faith alone. What are these extrabiblical teachings for salvation you speak of?>>220669239Based retarded unitarian
>>220669239Okay if that's the argument you want to make fine, but what you said was "Protestants don't believe in God LET ALONE JESUS"So they do believe in Jesus just he isn't God, or they don't believe in God or Jesus? Also Catholics and Orthodox Christians are both Trinitarian too, so wtf are you on about? Are you LDS or Jehova's Witness or something? CHRISTians ALL believe Jesus is both God and God's son. I don't understand why you singled out Protestants specifically for something that is equally believed by Catholics and Eastern Orthodox Christians as well. Shouldn't your argument have just started with the Trinity and anti-christian ideas holistically rather than simply anti-protestant? It isn't logical you sound like stupid bait or just stupid idk
>>220669334Anon that's all the right is anymore
>>220669239The hell you on about? Protestants belive in the Trinity
>>220666439yeah but destiny is just a hedonistic fag, he sucks your dick cause he wants to cause he's a degen, it's not the same
>>220666279I don't get why anyone cared about The Boys after how shit season 3 was.But the thing I wonder most about, is how can Butcher just kill him with a stab from a crowbar? Doesn't he have stronger bones, like on order of being around 10x stronger than a humans? Super powers in The Boys makes no fucking sense.
>>220669185Protestants have faith healing televangelists and gospel of prosperity blasphemies, Catholicism and Orthodoxy have an unbroken tradition going back before the Council of Nicae, so think I'll go with the not-larping their made up in the 1800s headcanon as the source of legitimate theological authority.
If radiation is the one thing that can depower Homelander, why didn't he just start wearing a lead lined suit? Also why didn't he get depowered every time he flow into space, which is full of radiation?
>>220669433Better questions is what kind and is it directed at a certain organ??? He could cook with coal, smoke like a chimney and eat bananas to weaken him in theory.
>>220669378Listen man the bible says do not practice magic. Even if i could heal your cavities and turn your nearest water source into wine it wouldn't make me a god in this scenario let alone a prophet.
>>220666279better question, how come kripke has to fuck up an entire show just to explain to the world how much he hates trump by giving the trump allegory such an anti-climactic, masturbatory democrat-porn ending?>Heh, imagine this was me brutally murdering blumpf after he shit his pants.. fuuck i'm so hard right now.. i'm such a good person fuuuckCould have just made the show good and interesting instead
>>220669427he lost his superpowers at the end of the show.you're right that no one should care after season 4 was so fucking bad though so saying the ending didn't pay off is distracting from the fact that it's just a culmination of inconsistent writing as every character becomes hyper competent for a few scenes and then loses it for 4-6 episodes at a time
>>220669427they put Kimiko into a radiation chamber so she mutates the same Anti-V blast ability that soldier boy has and she shoots and depowers him.
>>220669355My understanding of the Protestant interpretation is that you are not made right with God by earning salvation through works. You are saved by grace through faith. That was basically Paul's whole message, who, if there was a hierarchy would probably come before James in authority on salvation to Protestants like I was raised with, but that's beside the point I suppose. James basically says a faith that produces no obedience, mercy, or changed life is dead and can't save. His argument is that good deeds aren't literally part of the salvation process but if you are truly saved by Christ then they will emerge naturally from your new morality. That's what I was taught as a teenager. And we had this exact debate all the time. I lean more agnostic now but I've read the entire new testament probably like 7 or 8 times in my life. It's full of contradictions because it was written by a handful of people, and that's also what opens it up to a million different interpretations. I was mostly here just to call the Unitarian guy a hack but I have no beef with Catholicism I just have a distaste for retards I guess. >>220669432It's old so its good, got it. Catholicism did absolutely nothing to corrupt the teachings in the bible or impose it's dogma on peasants for political gain and they definitely didn't wait until the 16th century to officially select the canon. Understood.
>>220668345i feel like homelander should be crying and pathetic until butcher mentions becca, then homelander should've twisted the knife on butcher about how she didn't love him and was more in love with being loyal to vought and how vought ruined both of their lives and that butchers only purpose is killing him and that he is ALSO nothing
>>220669555Well, obviously older is better this is magical mythology my friend, and the Bible has been nothing but a disaster for Christianity, just go back to printing it in Greek and Latin so only virgin nerds can read it but choose to read Plato and Aristotle instead, it was a lot less cringe and a lot more mystical and chic when no one knew it was just a bunch of jewish fanfiction bullshit. Sorry you picked a jewish spinoff religion, do better next life I guess.
>>220669433If intense radiation depowers supes, then why didn't Vought devise a radiation based weapon as an insurance policy to neutralize Homelander? Something you can mount on a vehicle so you can quickly irradiate a target area. Because if the situation was more realistic, you'd need a group of such vehicles focusing on Homelander's position to depower him fast enough, before he flies away/destroys them. Could have been a plot point to acquire the technology.
>>220668345Butcher's smart enough to know that Homelander would play along only until he can find a way to get his powers back. Homelander could try bargaining, like what you said, but Butcher would still kill him. I feel like that wouldn't be a satisfying end for Homelander either.
>>220669627I didn't pick anything, I was brought up in protestant churches but I mostly reject organized religion now like a normie. I just argue with anons that make it apparent they haven't read the bible. I agree the best source would be the Greek but now that's getting fuzzy with that bald dude saying Christ was a pedophile and drug addict according to the original script. If I knew how to read Greek I would absolutely love to read that for shits, but I don't think I have the time to learn it or trust in the institutions that teach how to read it I guess
>>220666380Where was this argument in Sephiroth's defense over 20 years ago?
>>220669676Actually yeah, they where a weapons company after all.Making a laser that just blasts high energy photons or neutrons isn't even that bizarre of a technology it's been a thing since well before the comic was written. Literally all you would need to do is just put it a radiation laser of some kind into a gimble and give it a tracker whether it be IRST or radar. Homelander would have a decent sized radar cross section due to that retarded cape, and him accelerating to at least mach 1 would make him hot pretty much instantly.
>>220666349>I don't know why sucking duck and eating shit is supposed to upset rightoids.I mean it clearly worked.
>>220666279What did he do that makes him a bad guy?
>>220666349I would definitely say that the right is very fractured and have very split opinions that are mostly negative on those 3 clowns.Their shills do religiously defend them though.
>>220669753about 30 years now, bub :(
>>220666279I guess some people still remembered that one episode where it was revealed that he had been tortured every day in captivity as a child.
>>220669788Killed people for disagreeing with him at worst, let a plane full of people plummet to their deaths while having the power to save at least some of them at best. He was about to start a holocaust.
>>220666279the actual bad guys were the megacorpo executives and the system but for some reason the writers hired by the amazon shifted the focus from that to le evil big bad guy who's behind everything, killing him will fix everything folks!
>>220666279It was an unsatisfying end for a villain. I expected him to be dangerous and volatile to the very end, with victory achieved narrowly and purchased at a steep cost. You know, a normal cathartic ending where the heroes overcome challenge, prove their worth and the sum of all that they've become since they set out on the hero's journey. Instead it was this, hypersexualised, easy, pathetic.>durr that's the pointYeah, I understand that's the point. The point was unsatisfying. It's just a juvenile revenge fantasy. It was disappointing.
>>220669788>>220669829I see him being bad in the same way a person suffering from childhood abuse and neglect would be if untreated. Doesn't excuse it, but Vought bears responsibility for treating a child like an asset. A somewhat normal upbringing while slowly escalating his powers would have resulted in a Homelander, who actually understood and cared about people. Frankly Homelander also needed to experience the concept of actually losing some battles early in life to build character.
>>220669874modern entertainment is just a big humiliation ritual
>>220669900Pretty much, it's a nepotistic quagmire repulsed by sincerity. Truly grim.
>>220669813I remember, I remember the end when it became quite clear he volunteered for every experiment and could have broken out at any time. Because he's a sadist who'd do anything to make people like him except humble himself.
>>220669918What an oddly specific hallucination.
>>220669918he's a sadist so he let himself be tortured? you have that backwards?
>>220669948masochist, whatever, idk all these faggot words
>>220668345I've watched lots of videos of people getting executed. They may be terrified but I've never seen one offer to suck dick and eat shit. The degenerate Jew was projecting his fetish
>>220669918>could have broken out at any timeRemember the part where the scientist also said they brought on the best psychologists in the world to engineer him so he wouldn't do that? Anybody could be physically powerful, but it doesn't mean anything if the chains are in your mind.>Because he's a sadist who'd do anything to make people like him except humble himself.Yes, they made him that way. Doesn't mean he didn't deserve to get murked, he was fundamentally broken in a way that would have been incredibly difficult to address. Usually in these things, though, you'd address whatever system made him that way and ensure it never happened again, but that would mean pushing a message of CoRpOrAtIoN bAd, and that's a biiig no no because we can't have anyone realising that people have been radicalised the way the have because of institutions targeting vulnerable people.
>>220669965so it works. those are the ones who survive, and thus, you never watch the snuff video of
>>220668095The showrunner literally said it was all about Trump. Aren't you trannies tired of living in delusion?
>>220669918Not quite right. They said he had the power to escape whenever he wanted, but he didn't because he craved approval, love and attention on account of having no parents.
>>220669974Right, he was manipulated, but blames other people for it. The lab people didn't manipulate him, they were scared and did cause they were also being manipulated, they thought homelander wanted it. Really, at the end of the day enduring pain to make people happy, homelander wanted it to. He'd suck your fucking dick and eat your shit to get what he wants.
>>220670005Trump and Homelander are very distinct. Aside from being narcissists that are blonde white men they literally have nothing in common.
>>220666279Making villains pathetic just isn't interesting. It's literally that simple
>>220669432Fucking based.
>>220669965If you've been that strong for that long, and you know you've been that strong, why would suddenly losing your powers strip away all the personality and confidence you've had until then? Why is the only option to immediately turn into a sniveling bitch instead of behaving the way you always have and at least trying to fight back?
>>220670048I wouldn't know, I stopped watching that garbage after s3, which I only watched for Ackles. Point is the dude that wrote the character said it's supposed to be Trump.I don't care one iota about his masturbatory degenerate fanfiction, I'm just pointing out it's delusional to act like people are "reading into it because it's accurate"
>>220669965Have you watched a lot videos of pedophiles getting their guilty verdict and sentencing? So many break down in tears and a handful have physically cover their mouth from being a disruption in court. It's quite satisfying. They tend to shut down emotionally after a few nights of crying.
It seemed like he kind of saw Butcher as a friend, which is why he spared him so many times (he even mentioned it in his final speech). But in the end, Butcher killed him anyway. It feels like Homelander died feeling abandoned and betrayed I felt bad for the guy he just needed a friend :(
>>220669753All over deviantart and geocities I bet.
>>220670110Got the impression it was more he saw Butcher as a worthy opponent, and it would be wasteful to just kill him outright.
>>220669989Lmao
>>220670025>he was manipulated, but blames other people for itYes? Being manipulated by other people is something you can blame other people for.>Really, at the end of the day enduring pain to make people happy, homelander wanted it to.You are literally engaging in victim blaming here. Homelander IS a victim, and the way in which he lashed out is the fault of the people who set out to control a demigod via abuse. That's the entire point of Homelander being a deconstruction of Superman, under other circumstances he would have been Superman, an actual hero and bringer of hope. Nurture is incredibly important and we have to treat new lives with extreme care because you never know how they'll turn out in the end.The Boys ended with that realisation not taking place, its only moral story is that you should kill people who go wrong and never question why they went wrong.
>>220666279>>220666386The real question is why did the show turn into anti Trump political propaganda? Shouldn't it have been about evil Superman and the Vought corporation?
>>220670164>why didn't Amazon make a show about the evil corporation
is it controversial? i just thought it was boringentire season felt rushed with not really any ideas, just yappinghomolander shouldve been powerless and made fun of/tortured for at least a whole episode, enough to make butcher look like he actually deserved what he got too
>>220666279I really dont think someone that is a psychopath, suffers from hallucinations and has grandeur delusions; would flip the script so fast to begging for their life. They would chastise you for neutering a god before anything
>>220669965I happens all the time. Look at the black community forcing them to suck each other's dicks with a gun to the head.
>>220670164Because creators have forgotten a crucial thing about creating fiction: It's separate from reality. Entertaining fictional ideas doesn't mean you automatically endorse or believe in them for real.
>>220670198This.
>>220670151>Yes? Being manipulated by other people is something you can blame other people for.Other people as in not the manipulators.... try to keep up here ESL. >You are literally engaging in victim blaming here. Homelander IS a victim,OK, so if you rape a girl, she can do whatever she wants? At what point is a person responsible for their own actions not responsible? You don't seem to have a distinction here. At the end of the day Homelander saw no issue with his behavior and his solution to get help was to talk to himself. He never acknowledges he is a victim. So yes, I do blame the victim, but not for the circumstances that lead to his victimhood, but his complete separation from paths that could lead to growth, healing and anything but what he was being.
>>220670110>>220670142No, he never out right killed Butcher because he saw Butcher as a pet. Sometimes predators play with their prey before killing them. He constantly let Butcher live because he enjoyed playing with him.
>>220670220Kripke should have left after the first season then. Now I'm glad he left Supernatural as well.
>>220668095>>220670048>left wing media literacy in action
>>220670220>This is Space Hitler. You have to HATE him because he is EVIL. Understand? He is EVIL. You cannot like anything about him. If you like him or think he is cool in any way, you are just as bad as he is, which makes you EVIL too. You're not an EVIL person too, are you?
>>220670246>OK, so if you rape a girl, she can do whatever she wants?No.>At what point is a person responsible for their own actions not responsible?A person is responsible for their own actions, but you don't stop at treating symptoms without also addressing cause.>You don't seem to have a distinction here.Re-read >>220669974 I went over this already.>but his complete separation from paths that could lead to growth, healing and anything but what he was being.Fair, but you also have to understand that no one reached out, or even could. All anybody knew about Homelander was the constructed persona, Vought knew and kept it secret, nobody there saw the shit he was pulling, wondered if they had created a monster, and tried to pull the man out of the monster before things went as badly as it did.No correction took place, no empathy was displayed until the body count was too high to forgive. This whole situation was an exercise in ignoring a problem until it's too late.
>>220670314I appreciate Lex Luthor's character when done properly. Does that make me a chud?
>>220670377I can't believe you want Superman to die. That's so sick... How could you want that? I feel such a bad vibe coming from your post. I can't believe you hate Superman like that. No wonder you like Lex Luthor, you're just like him.
>>220670377https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ardx6mBZfa0Not at all.
>>220670475Wow. What the fuck? I hope you're joking.
>>220669043Thats not true at all because the end of the crowbar is the point of rotation, its not moving, the middle of the bar is the part thats actually moving. If it's travelling towards the desk then it would push the rest of the skull cap with it
>>220670048People like this particular retard genuinely try and lecture people on media literacy btw
>>220666349>Nick FuentesGrifter >Peter Thiel Antichrist>Lindsay GrahamAIPAC stooge
>>220666329>you have no media literacy>while i, the genius, enjoy having the villain actually humiliating himself and find satysfaction out of this
>>220669186This is for my wife's son!
sorry, i'm a retarded chud who has no media literacy so i didn't actually watch this show. must be too high IQ for me
It's anticlimactic. That's literally it.For the entire series they've teased the show's equivalent of The Long Night, the "Scorched Earf" and in the end, they didn't have the gonads (or the cash, presumably) to do it either via Butcher OR Homelander. The two leads just go out on a whimper, rushed into a grave faster (and gayer) than Terror.Meanwhile all of the supporting cast were pretty much unnecessary and uninteresting by this point. Nobody likes Ryan. Nobody likes Kimiko. Nobody likes Boglight. Nobody cares about The Deep. Nobody fucking cares about Frenchie except internet activists who hate the actor because he was conscripted into service he regretted and suffered from mentally even before his fame, which is sort of ironic because these same retards will praise redemption arcs for mass murderers acting individually.It was just fucking boring, and the show already had an issue with being repetitive and predictable, so with a finale as tame and ultimately pointless (as Butcher pointed out) it just leaves you feeling empty, left with nothing but to focus on the inconsistencies of logic and logistics, e.g. Homelander jobbing, Starlight vs. The Deep, etc...2/10, should've taken a hiatus. Finished Gen V S3, do a couple of seasons of Vought Rising, whatever, then come back in a few years with the right mindset and hopefully the funding to really go out with a bang.
>>220666349Presumably, boy hungry men get their dicks sucked and their shit eaten.The left: pro gay on paper, actually homophobic (pro trans is part of this)The right: anti gay on paper, actually homo (so long as it's a classically greek top and his fuck boy).
>>220666380Honestly, this is part of it unironicallyThey tried to make his backstory from the comics more sympathetic in the showSo it definitely makes the ending less satisfying knowing he was basically tortured as a kid
>>220671881>nobody cares about The Peak
Wait this is why everyone is posting about sucking dick and eating shit? The only things I've heard about in this show are toilet humor jokes
>>220670025>he was manipulated, but blames other people for it.Uh, correct. What?
>>220671979homelander gets depowered and Billy beats him up and he begs billy not to kill him saying he'll suck his dick and eat his shit
>>220671959I found him to be equally sympathetic, if not less so.Remember that comic Homelander is not intrinsically evil and was gradually molded into a narcissist by virtue of the power he was given from birth, contrasted with his being gaslit into schizophrenia by Black Noir for years.Felt kinda bad seein' him eat shit in both. Probably would've been less disappointed if he actually did suck William's willy and then they become a gay couple and go off into the sunset to raise their wife's son. Call it Two and a Half Supes.
>>220666279What i don't understand is, i thought Ryan was supposed to be more special since he's like the first natural born supe when others are only made through compound V, so he technically doesn't have that shit in his veins.But then at the end, he gets blasted by kimiko's ray and still loses his powers. I guess that's just one of the many things the writers forgot about.
>>220666279>NZer on NZer violenceWhat did Eric Kripke mean by this?
>>220672055That's just Tropic Thunder
>>220672253That's no different than from the comics. The drug that makes someone super powered is heritable, but it can be removed all the same.
>>220672253honestly just don't think about it. Compound V alters you on a genetic level but also simultaneously is somehow actually just sitting in your blood stream forever like some sort of super microplastic that powers you up but also if it gets fried out of your system, any physiological changes it incurs are perfectly reversed somehow because uhhh. It's more retarded the more it's scrutinized
>>220672939>>220673224They sure tried to make a big deal out of it back then but just completely forgot about it by the end lol
>>220673224It's really not all that different from heritable viruses. It replicates so long as its inside a host. But once it's completely gone, it's gone. The host won't make more of it.
>>220673723In that case depowering a supe could end up being temporary (as in it takes years/decades to recover) if just enough "viral cells" of Compound V survive the process.
>>220673885Yes, you can weaken supes with radiation. So really, a nuke would actually kill any supe in the boys.
>>220666279>>220666329Leftists have no theory of mind for anyone their cult leaders have told them to hate so I'm not surprised you're confused about this.
>>220670048The actor himself is on record saying he had to tard wrangle Kripke and remind him that they are two different people.
Butcher is a gary stu
>>220670048Tell that to the writer and director.
>>220668085It wasn't at first. Homelander had layers to him in early seasons. Then the writer got TDS and turned him into a stupid cartoon.
>>220668160Well, he's under a contract, getting paid, and presumably wants to continue getting paid in the future, so he has to play ball.
>>220666466> some people on here are angry that their self-insert superchud lostWhere? Literally nobody is saying this
>>220674477It was real in his head
>>220666279I didn't realize he was bad until he admitted he was just a perverted sodomite.
>>220669185The whole point of Protestantism is you can believe whatever the fuck you want
>>220666561this is where im at, also the climax being two super nuclear bombs fighting eachother inside of an indestructible room, AGAIN.
>>220671741>>220674086You realize anon meant that you subnormals don't read the comics?
>>220674086the irony is really exquisite with rightoids
>>220669078the actor called out the jew writer for his trump obsession, so the only one doing projection is the jew for projecting trump onto homelander.
>>220666279Whats wrong with him begging for his life? He was born with powers so this is prob the first time he was really scared of death.
its bad cause this is just democrat gore porn for retards obsessed with trump
I don't think Charlie Kirk should have been killed and ever since it happened I find myself cutting the left less and less slack, they are more 'white genocide' than I ever imagined
>>220669965
>>220675494Haha, brilliant.
>>220674422Everyone is a whore for money it's gross If you accept humiliation and suffering in exchange for money then you lost
Why are jewish power fantasies always so juvenile and almost always involve dicks or shit
>>220674477>anon is introduced to the concept of trolling for attention in 2026, colorized
>>220666279
>>220666349Funny how being a cock sucking faggot is a perfectly legitimate and valid way to live one's life, until it becomes convenient to accuse right wingers of doing it, then it goes right back to being a scathing insult. It's almost like lefties don't mean anything they say and have zero principles.
>>220669334>da rightlol
Stopped watching after season 3 bros, how we feeling?
>>220676005you got out at the right time

>>220669432>>220674554Reminder that Martin Luther's 95 thesis have never been deboonked and you clowns can only say superficially shallow shit that doesn't matterhttp://reverendluther.org/pdfs/The_Ninety-Five_Theses.pdf
>>220675745>If you accept humiliation and suffering in exchange for money then you lostYou know he didn't really suck any dicks or eat any shit, right? It's just a shitty tv show, relax.
>>220666279I only realised homolander was evil when it was revealed that he was a sodomite in the finale. I just couldn't support him after that plot twist.
>>220678713>offer to engage in typical faggot behavior>get killedPretty homophobic of the writers.
>>220666279he's just a puppet for the jew writers to project their insecurities on. he's supposed to be a trump parallel yet kills fake-elon musk for basically no reason. they just pick and chose when they want him to kill the people they dislike irl and when they want him to be a strawman for those people they dislike
>The Goys
>>220666439Wait wait wait, he was pitchin' not catchin' ?
>>220680455>tv fags watch this shitbut anime is for heckin trannies, ok??
>>220675855This
>>220666279No one cares that he lost. People care that the writing was shit.
>>220666279Meanwhile in reality Kripke is closer to Homelander than Trump.Without his jewishness that gets him jobs he doesnt deserve he would probably beg to eat shit and suck dick for a living.Trump at least got elected
>>220666279Name another movie/tv show where the villian begs for his life before he dies.
>>220680673LOL I love how they forward-load the early life section now. They know why you searched for it.
>>220668345It was juvenile, but the whole show was, especially homelander, so I buy it for the sake of showing what a miserable manchild psycho he was. Also the only "depth" he was ever given was that he had a bad childhood, a lame story that got carried by the actor.
