The weirdest thing is Erik Kripke made an entire series which has male sexual assault in almost every episode, and then dedicated the series to his dad.
It’s wild how these days a “genius” character just means no matter how much they screw themselves over they just smirk and say “just as I planned.” It’s mental.
Whats dumb is The Deep getting sexually assaulted in season 2 was treated more seriously than Hughie getting sexually assaulted, tortured and raped. So they can absolutely make a serious scene about male victims of sexual violence, the writers just hate Hughie for some reason. Edit: Might’ve been season 1 idk
Interestingly, in Season 1 The Deep was sexually assaulted and the scene made clear how horrific it is. I guess that's because Season 1 had one of the creators of Breaking Bad involved. You know, a person with actual talent.

More like “the audience doesn’t want to accept a smart black woman as a character and will come up with disingenuous fake virtue signalling reasons as to why their subjectivity is rational in accordance to an irony of writing of any kind” But I know y’all aren’t objective and will try to ration with poor arguments that prove you didn’t watch the show or the character to know what you’re saying. Such is life.
The producers trying to poke fun at conspiracy theorists, potraying them as nutjobs, while at the same time the theorists being absolutely spot on about everything that happened and tried to get covered up is hilarious.
thats whats insane, they make fun of them while also proving that they are right about everything ! or are they saying that irl they are actually right ?
@@kingvejita8827 They try to potray them as nutjobs irl too, the point however is that many conspiracy theorists I met irl are actually kind, loving, welcoming people who are simply skeptical about the government and big corpos.

@@DeepCFisher An analogy for the conspiracy theorists in real life being crazy nutjobs. Unfortunately for them, everything the conspiracy theorists in the show say is absolutely spot on, meaning their attempt at ignorance and shaming was a major backfire, as they unintentionally show the conspiracy theorists as right regardless of their behavior.

They attempt dunking on “conspiracy theorists” by having an Alex Jones parody claiming that they’re doing hoaxes. Next scene literally being Homelander orchestrating a hoax. Uhhhhh ok.
This show sucks bad, and is incredibly problematic in a lot of ways. This isn't one of them. It's mocking the way that there are crazy hoaxes being spoken about while the system behind them is manufacturing much worse conspiracies. Obviously this was seen in Firecracker talking about pedo rings while being a pedo. Then the whole blaming starlight for social unrest while devising social upheaval. Idk maybe it upset your feelings, as there's so much worse to be pointed at.

She could have been used as a social commentary on how CEOs and big business execs are actually so out of touch with their own business and the real world they’d fall for what is basically top tier gaslighting. Reminds me of a story I read about a man who scammed huge companies like Facebook and Google by sending them fake invoices for bills and they’d pay them all no questions asked
There’s too much “deconstruction” going on in modern media. Heroes can’t be all good, villains can’t be all bad. Everything has to reflect modern sentiments. I was rewatching the Lord of The Rings trilogy and the honesty and heart of it is always a breath a fresh air. It’s sad that most modern media will not stand the test of time.
Ugh, I just want an epic tale of undying friendship in the purest of form. Those hobbits make me feel sentimental over fictional characters, such fantastic writing.
people seem to have forgotten the idea of enjoying a simple story, everything's gotta have a million different layers that they want you to think about instead of being able to concentrate on the damn story
Same for mad max fury road, its my comfort movie Movies dont need to be an analogue to anything, whole story is just them driving to desert and driving back, but it has a cult of dudes who paint themselves white, worship v8 engines and make themselves look like cars by painting their mouth chrome like how old timey cars had chrome grilles before sacrificing themselves for the greater good of the boys and im like hell yeah, you go my man, shiny and chrome
@@Cogito-r6n that's what the show IS about, it's just that Kripke (being one of them) doesn't have an ounce of self-awareness so the show acts as a parody so perfect that it even goes over the show's own writers' heads
Erin Moriarty's face kinda reminds me of the portrait of dorian gray. The longer she's there and acting on a terrible show, the more it reflects the loss of a once youthful innocence and the corruption of her soul by the likes of Seth Rogan-type politics.
Frenchy was always depicted as being bisexual though. He had a couple scenes showing him being in a polyamorous relationship with a girl and another dude. So it isn't really a new development. But it up until now has always just been a minor thing... not his defining trait.
In season 1, Frenchie was an inventor, a tinkerer, an engineer. After the first few episodes, this was dropped entirely. Frenchie then just becomes "a guy", he has no purpose. Another plot hole is that Soldier Boy was knocked unconcious with anesthetik (sleeping gas). So why not just do that and then "Do the Translucent"?
Well, technically, he still does something... Sometimes. But this is difficult to notice, given that SO MUCH ATTENTION has begun to be paid to his personal life. These adventures of Frenchie and Kimiko remind me of Squadmate Side Quests from Mass Effect... Only repeated many times in a series that is already bloated.
No offense but Frenchie had his own subplot in season 4 with confecing to killing his boyfriends family, dealing with his guilt through drug addiction and eventually by confessing to the police, and at the end he comes in clutch by recreating the supe-killing virus from Kimiko’s leg. That is a lot of shit for just some guy, sure you can argue that his story doesn’t entirely surround him doing engineer/lab shit, but I think it just helps make the character seem more rounded instead of just a 2-dimensional “tech guy”. The knockout gas thing idk, there ain’t no gas strong enough to knock out Homelander. Much less that he’d let you do it or some other shit
@@almightyarsenal3366, It feels like a rehash of his previous subplots, to be honest. Moreover, it was done very lazily. When the plot needed him, he received a "get out of jail card". I don't argue, maybe you personally felt something. But not all viewers. It seems to me that anyone who has watched more than a few series will not be impressed by what they see. Again, this is my opinion, I do not claim the absolute truth.
I get the joke but to be ho eat I hated that plot line. It did not make any sense. We all thought there was something special with Kimiko. There was no reason for it and it was so in your face not even subtle
@@silviaetna9874 because there was, there were no hints of Frenchie being gay prior, they just did it to rub into conservative faces, sacrificing the plotline for that
tbh i never got the uproar about frenchie being gay specifically. he's a pill-popping degenerate who worked for a latex russian mob, and him being gay is where we draw the line? the writing in s4 sucked and the colin plotline was ass but like we shouldnt be upset bout him being gay
@@iipecacuanhaI think it was due to the story being ass and not the being gay part. It served no purpose to the show except for Frenchie to dip for a few episodes

And if they try to argue about it, point out the director himself said he thought Hughie being sexually assaulted was funny. Uno reverse their asses.
its very difficult to watch this video. Not because its bad, but because it includes too much raw footage of the actual show, so I keep having to alt tab out of whatever Im doing lest I cringe myself into a blackhole
She should have Lex Luthor, Tony Stark technology and countermeasures Instead, she spends all her time reading feminist literature in a one bedroom apartment
Its wild how the Tek Knight in the actual comics was no where near as cynical or disgusting as this one. He actually tried to get help for his affliction, cut ties with his former side kick when he realized he was a degenerate, sent his robin away to prevent himself from hurting him. Then died saving a woman and her child from falling bricks. Before he got sick, even butcher acknowledged that he was one of the few legit heroes. He never got in trouble, he actually seemed like he wanted to help and save the world. Unfortunately a tumour ruined him. But at least he had the tumour excuse, no one else did.
He died f0cking the asteroid to death to prevent it from colliding with Earth. Also, his Alfred left him after he used his ear. Yes, in THAT meaning. I hate what the show have turned into, but please, don't try to bring comic in here as a superior version. Even with the Season 4, the show is nowhere nearly as degenerate and needlesly cinical as the comic was, and that says a lot.
@OverLorD768 that was a delusion he created. It's made pretty clear in the comic that the falling wheelbarrow killed him but his mind conjured a last hurrah. And he did assault his Alfred and his nieces chinchilla. But again the comic made it very clear that he was doing these things against his will and trying to get help for it but was too dangerous to treat. (He also apparently raped a scalding hot coffee cup to avoid raping a cat) The comics are cringe bullshit too but the story was somehow more interesting than this.
*Criticizes it for bad writing.* "Erm ackshully chud, you just don't like it cuz you're conservative 🤓" I'm pretty sure people of all political spectrums don't like The Boys currently. You might as well apply that same logic to everything else then. For instance: You don't like Mr. Birchum, not because it's unfunny and hamfisted, but because you're a liberal.
I hate how topical the show tries to be. Next season will 100% have a homelander assassination attempt where he gets his ear lasered or something. Very subtle writing.
Worse is, the'll probably make an "inside job". Even worse, the'll say "iT's JuSt ToO cLeVeR fOr YoU!" if you don't praise its sheer genius and relevance and bow to their "clever" writing.
they teased soldier boy again in S4, so im betting soldier boy comes back, tries to take out homelander with some super-killing bullet, and nicks him in the ear because he turns his head at the last second when he sees butcher in the crowd or some shit
Fact: Season 4 finale is originally titled "Assasination Run" but because the event of Trump almost die getting shot in his rally at Pennsylvania, they changed it to "The Boys Season 4 episode 8" because of the timing.
The reason Vought is far right while being left wing is because the writers are far left. Vought is portrayed as evil because they don’t truly lean into every left wing view. They aren’t gay enough.
“The writers are far left” The fact that you think Hollywood liberals writing a show for Amazon are “far left” just shows how on point the satire in the show is. The writers aren’t far left, you just live in a whack job cartoonishly right wing country where you think “far left” means “doesn’t hate gay people”
Vought isn’t “left wing” they are a billion dollar capitalist corporation that cynically uses identity politics as a marketing tactic…just like Disney in the real world.
@@tentacledood5784 what? Disney is hated by the left because all they do is include things with the thought process of making money. Disney has gone out of their way to cancel tv shows with gay characters
I cant tell if this is some deep irony or just racist. "Oh no! ur telling me this character is supposed to be SMART? but but ... she's black and and I'm white??! how can this be??!, How can a fictional black character be smART??! oHh it must be the political agenda changing her to be black because there no way the smartest person on earth in a superhero show could NOT be a white guy" you need to approach media and not cry every time you see someone that doesn't completely align with your world view, or just stop being racist. the problem with the show is not that a character is black, its that its poorly written. you want a example? Nick furry was changed to black when he came to Avengers. Did anyone complain? no because he did the role perfectly and it matched well and was written well.

The Boys S4E6 is in contention for the worst piece of media I've have ever had the torturous displeasure to witness. I rarely drop a series I'm already invested in even if it gets terrible by the end, but that episode genuinely made me want to just never open Amazon Prime ever again.
Season 1 really baited us in hard, until the point where the writers preceded to punch us in the face for daring to continue watching their slop, because we criticized it…
Minor fun fact I wanna throw out, Garth ennis creator of the boys, really hates Captain America. The reason for this I because apparently he thinks Captain America is disrespectful to actual vets, mind you that the character of captain America a was created by 2 actual veterans and Garth Ennis has never served a day in his life in the army. Side note: I don't hate Ennis and I do like his Punisher stuff, however a lot of the guy's writing can come off as being needlessly edgy for the sake of being edgy.
Created by veterans, was a veteran, still continually risks his life for American citizens, and innocently and inoffensively patriotic. Yep, smells of disrespect to me.
You didn’t comment on Hughie being raped by the starlight clone, leading to Starlight gaslighting him into guilt and self-hatred for not knowing that a literal clone of her wasn’t the real her
Not just that, but The Shapeshifter could steal all of Annie's memories and mannerisms as well, and Hughie only found out because _she was being too nice to him_ to be the real Annie. Not only that, but they revealed in her rant to Annie that Shapeshifter could've taken out Hughie any time she wanted after she got the evidence deleted from his computer, but _genuinely_ liked Hughie and was disgusted at how poorly Annie treated him and The Boys and how awful of person Annie was to everyone, including Firecracker. But the writers ignore all this build-up for Annie to grow as a character and reform from her past selfishness to unironically double-down in it at the end by victim blaming Hughie for SA after it only happened to him a week ago and after he just lost his father. Any self-respecting man would have dumped Annie right then and there.

One thing I found so annoying about the discourse surrounding this season was the whole, “It was making fun of the right the whole time” argument. The problem I have with this argument is that even if that was the case, there is a way you can do political satire that doesn’t come across as shallow, bad faith, or just a giant straw man, which the political commentary in this season is 100% guilty of.
Well and it was balanced they made fun of the left too, the whole Maeve being a lesbian was making fun of wokeness but now the balance is gone and it went full throttle hate and malice towards right wingers.

I'm not even religious or that political, but all this season did was preach 'abortions are good, christianity is evil', can we not just have a fun superhero show to enjoy without making the audience feel like monsters?
I'm not religious, pro-choice but still right-wing in all other aspects. The Boys S4 is a joke, i mean show got political with S2 but the it actually felt like a satire until S4. It's a middle finger to most of us who liked first three seasons.

All the Vought characters say smartest woman alive to Sister Sage, while I distinctly remember Huey saying smartest person alive, all because the writers want to make the argument that the boys are morally superior for using her preferred label. The thing is, if Sister Sage is the smartest person alive, she is de facto the smartest woman alive, so she isn’t correcting people, she is just being a bitch.
Smartest woman alive/Smartest man alive both imply that the other gender might have someone smarter. Smartest person alive is more totalitarian in this case.

Any variant of the root word “total”, an adjective, being substituted in the sentence as is would be grammatically incorrect because “more” being used as an adjective has already affected the structure of the sentence.

@@jamessurnamepending1239 The comment explicitly says “I (would) be” and “if I had to deal with“, the obvious implication is that the statement is a hypothetical about if reality resembled the show.

@sedrie34 wait hold on, I entirely missed that sorry. But surely that means that the comment is irrelevant then, since that's the whole point of the show? That otherising people only serves to divide us, like how the characters see eachother as polar opposites while they are all flawed but empathisable characters?
I think this is honest to god my favorite media, show, whatever review ever. I’ve watched this video like 6 times, it’s funnier than half the shows we get these days.
The world's morality operates on edgy anime logic where once you get powers you become the hollow man. It's like Game of Thrones where it gives much more insight into the warped morals of the writers than whatever real world people they're trying to lampoon
yeap , i always love how WRITERS (its important to point out their job, if u know u know) who are enjoying the fruits of peace of kindness of a flourishing society and what do they write ? they write about ghey worlds filled with degeneracy and darkness... and they do it like its reflecting the world they live in !
The problem with writing "smartest person in the room" characters is they are only as smart as the writers are. Since most of the time, writers are not that smart, the "smart character" basically becomes IQ Jesus who can solve everything instantly because its all just so elementary to IQ Jesus.
My biggest complaint is that they won't let Hughie's character progress. He's the main character in the show, and he's either doing nothing or doing the same arcs over and over. Went back and watched season 1, and he actually was useful to the team! He was the butt of the joke then as well, but he still did stuff.
Season 3 didn’t do him much justice he saw nueman pop somebodies head he had the guts to stand up to homelander and he’s the bad guy for wanting to protect people he cared about and I get it insecurity and what not starlight was kinda a hypocrite in season 3
Well, to be fair, characters don't have to develop and grow. But this logic also works in the opposite, so it’s very strange that a character who has survived so much always returns to square one. Again, I don't want the characters to praise Huey or to have him succeed at everything. But when characters in a series with continuity always talk like strangers in an elevator, it's annoying. Even more annoying is that Huey is forbidden to be emotional. He cannot be jealous, selfish, upset or anything. He should always be a comfortable yes-man -Huey, I had an abortion. -Okay Annie -Huey, your father needs to be euthanized and there are no other options. -Okay, Kimiko and Butcher It's simply not believable. Leftist authors simply want the main characters to always agree or be neutral about what the party says. Again - I'm not saying that Huey would be definitely against it, but they show that he is definitely for it.
@@ahoramazda6864 100%, characters can be static if it fits the story. However, it doesn't fit the story. There's too much happening for Huey to not only not change, but also regress.
@@mongarfreenam1393, I would also note that there is a lot of fake progression in the show. A striking example is Starlight. They are trying to sell us that her slacktivism matters and that she is now “Annie” and so on... But this has little effect, because she does little like Annie. She is almost always provoked into action, but she is rarely the initiator and is a very passive character. Beef with Homelander from last season was completely forgotten. Marvin's family was brought back only to be rid of them again. Considering that the recast is so noticeable, I'm surprised why they kept MM in the first place, considering he doesn't contribute much to the show. They could have retired him, given that he is the most normal of the team. Same goes to Huey. They added his mother and made her a Vought employee to kind of shoehorn her in, but she wasn't actually needed for the plot. Her only purpose is to inject Serum V into Huey's father, so as not to make it his action and responsible for the negative consequences of it. Simply put, the authors took away the character’s choice so that someone would choose for him and he would not commit an action that the Democrats would not approve of, because they would only approve of euthanasia.
The boys is going to become like those franchises like Twilight, franchises that were pretty popular at the time with young folk but when people grow up in the future everyone will look at them as cringey slop.
Twilight is pretty great! I was never on the hate train, watched the whole thing with my girlfriend recently and it's pretty neat. Kinda corny here and there but it's honestly not bad?
It’s not about age, braindead people like penguinz0 still suck the show off. because hahah funny gore and poop and piss lol so edgy. Somehow all you have to do these days for people to give a blind eye to your biased crap is. Just be a little edgy and you get the ”cool outsider satire card” back. I honestly think he has a greater role in people looking past the garbage of this series than people realize.
My favorite when Sage shitted on Transformers for having Skids and Mudflap be the two “black” robots in the movie. And it’s so obvious it was just put there so Redditors could shit on something nobody remembers from 2009, because it’s brought up out of nowhere. The writers are completely unaware of what satire is
This is something the left loves to do. It's called 'problematization', and it basically just means going back to any old thing and poisoning the well in terms of discussion about it, and generally moving discussion about it toward a left wing bias, so that 'serious' discussion about whatever it is has to always include those perspectives. There used to be a whole ass blog on Tumblr called 'Your Faves Are Problematic', all about 'problematizing' media, which was quite popular, and considered an early example of 'callout culture'. The example you gave of the random Transformers reference is perfect, since this tactic tends to work best with things that are too old to be part of the current conversation, or were never super popular to begin with, since there won't be any knowledgeable fans to call bullshit. Like just recently, I saw a vid in my recommended titled "The Strange Conservatism of Forrest Gump"--an easy target; FG is popular, but no one is exactly talking about it now, so if you want to step in and 'problematize' it, you can.
Kinda weird the show that's supposed to be all progressive and be a "serious" take on the hero genre and the repurcussions and consequences of such that is oh so mighty and against the chuds ends up VERY REGULARLY using rape as a punchline. I guess it's (D)different.
Who in the fuck lied to you and told you this was a serious take? The show literally has a guy who's power is to shoot webs out of a little asshole on his back and you genuinely thought "Ah yes, this very serious show is making very serious claims" I swear conservatives have to be some of the most braindead people on the planet right next to the liberals who say that biological men can fight biological women.
It's somewhat poetic irony that the show is turning into the comics down to the bones, by Butcher being the coolest character, and there being an unnecessary amount of sexual, vioent, and racist scenes.
Annie is their self insert. Her character arc this season was her learning she isn't the perfect moral princess she pretends to be, which she immediately unlearns after killing the shapeshifter and blames Hughie for being SA'd, then "forgiving him" by telling him to get tested.
The worst part about The Boys and season 4 especially is that the political messages seem to be speaking to no one. If you already agree with the show's politics, you aren't given any material to test your boundaries and help you grow as a person. If you disagree with the show's politics, you're essentially just being told to go fuck yourself instead of there being an honest attempt to persuade you to think differently. The message literally serves no purpose.
@checkle1 you are doing exactly what The Boys writers are doing. Being pretentious and snarky while playing off as intelligent becuase the audience refuses to be talked down to. How insufferable you are

@@ericchung3177 I don't get that impression from his post at all. Seems like he's just upset that it seems like a pandering liberal echo chamber. And I'm not sure you know what a white knight is; you're closer to being one by sticking up for him, how romantic.
Here is the biggest plot hole in the entire show for me: Butcher's cancer. So the V gave him cancer, weird. It's never done that to anyone else, ever. Last season Hughie took almost as much as Butcher, so what about him? It also gave him a little tumor monster that is shown to be present in the rabbit they find at the farm. The rabbit has two scenes where it is clearly shown to have the same disease Butcher has, but the problem is the rabbit was subjected to the virus that kills all supes. Not to V. Also, his V-tumor/cancer is now sentient and talks to him, claiming to have power over letting the cancer kill him or not and when Butcher can access the powers. That's an empty threat though, because in the scene where Butcher is in the religious nut's trailer and about to die, his V-tumor saves him. It's self preservation, which completely flies in the face of the threat about just "letting Butcher die." Like What?
I couldn't care less about this show, every fan of it literally repeats the same thing at the minimum criticism they find: "You're angry because is making fun of you" and some bs about Garth Ennis being the anticrist based on that PointlessHub video. The last thing i was kinda interested in seeing was TekKnight and they just made him another racist Bruce Wayne/Trump type of character instead of something actually interesting like they did in the comics (A guy who wanted to be a hero but couldn't because of that brain tumor affecting his libido)

The whole Kimiko and Frenchie storyline immediately tipped me off that this was a waste of time and that creators had zero respect for their audience’s intelligence.
I saw people on Twitter saying “Season 4 is actually pretty good if you just watch the first and last episode, its an 8/10.” Like what? If 90% of a season is unwatchable garbage, it shouldn’t go above a 3/10. I thought they were baiting but no, they’re being 100% serious.
Reminds me of how everyone watched Stranger Things season 4 with rose tinted glasses and then realized how shit it was after it ended.

Homelander is a character that is undoubtedly a tragedy of what would happen to superman if instead of being raised by the Kent family he was raised in a cold lab by uncaring scientists who not only radicalized him but also subjected him to extreme forms of torture to find his limits without any care of what it would turn him into. The way this show refuses to show that and constantly make him the bad guy shows the lack of empathy and creativity that they all have.
They want to make him the most vile person but also want to give him a tragic backstory. This has been done better ngl. But I won’t say Homelander isn’t decent as a villain, even if Antony Starr carries.
The weirdest thing is Erik Kripke made an entire series which has male sexual assault in almost every episode, and then dedicated the series to his dad.

Frenchy was always depicted as being bisexual though. He had a couple scenes showing him being in a polyamorous relationship with a girl and another dude.
So it isn't really a new development. But it up until now has always just been a minor thing... not his defining trait.
It was his heart medication. It fucked with his head. He can probably get a note from his doctor.
In season 1, Frenchie was an inventor, a tinkerer, an engineer. After the first few episodes, this was dropped entirely. Frenchie then just becomes "a guy", he has no purpose.
Another plot hole is that Soldier Boy was knocked unconcious with anesthetik (sleeping gas). So why not just do that and then "Do the Translucent"?
Well, technically, he still does something... Sometimes. But this is difficult to notice, given that SO MUCH ATTENTION has begun to be paid to his personal life. These adventures of Frenchie and Kimiko remind me of Squadmate Side Quests from Mass Effect... Only repeated many times in a series that is already bloated.
He literally recreated a virus using junk and a rotten sample.
That probably doesn't work on soldier boy. He eats 7.62 for breakfast, like they literally put an ak in his mouth and it did nothing
No offense but Frenchie had his own subplot in season 4 with confecing to killing his boyfriends family, dealing with his guilt through drug addiction and eventually by confessing to the police, and at the end he comes in clutch by recreating the supe-killing virus from Kimiko’s leg. That is a lot of shit for just some guy, sure you can argue that his story doesn’t entirely surround him doing engineer/lab shit, but I think it just helps make the character seem more rounded instead of just a 2-dimensional “tech guy”.

Her backstory is that she can cure cancer and no one believed her so she chose not to
did you even watch the show? She literally said she found a cure for her mother's cancer, but because of her age she was just laughed at.
Its wild how the Tek Knight in the actual comics was no where near as cynical or disgusting as this one.
He actually tried to get help for his affliction, cut ties with his former side kick when he realized he was a degenerate, sent his robin away to prevent himself from hurting him. Then died saving a woman and her child from falling bricks.
Before he got sick, even butcher acknowledged that he was one of the few legit heroes. He never got in trouble, he actually seemed like he wanted to help and save the world. Unfortunately a tumour ruined him. But at least he had the tumour excuse, no one else did.
Which is exactly why the writers had to do what they did.
A shame, i would have liked to see more well meaning sups @xenn4985
Bu-but I thought the show was supposed to be more mature and nuanced than the comics!!!!?! That's what the Internet says!!@!!
He died f0cking the asteroid to death to prevent it from colliding with Earth. Also, his Alfred left him after he used his ear. Yes, in THAT meaning.
I hate what the show have turned into, but please, don't try to bring comic in here as a superior version. Even with the Season 4, the show is nowhere nearly as degenerate and needlesly cinical as the comic was, and that says a lot.
@OverLorD768 that was a delusion he created. It's made pretty clear in the comic that the falling wheelbarrow killed him but his mind conjured a last hurrah.
And he did assault his Alfred and his nieces chinchilla. But again the comic made it very clear that he was doing these things against his will and trying to get help for it but was too dangerous to treat.
(He also apparently raped a scalding hot coffee cup to avoid raping a cat)
The comics are cringe bullshit too but the story was somehow more interesting than this.

I hate how topical the show tries to be. Next season will 100% have a homelander assassination attempt where he gets his ear lasered or something. Very subtle writing.
Worse is, the'll probably make an "inside job". Even worse, the'll say "iT's JuSt ToO cLeVeR fOr YoU!" if you don't praise its sheer genius and relevance and bow to their "clever" writing.
And then use that to make him god without the power
they teased soldier boy again in S4, so im betting soldier boy comes back, tries to take out homelander with some super-killing bullet, and nicks him in the ear because he turns his head at the last second when he sees butcher in the crowd or some shit
Fact:
Season 4 finale is originally titled "Assasination Run" but because the event of Trump almost die getting shot in his rally at Pennsylvania, they changed it to "The Boys Season 4 episode 8" because of the timing.
The reason Vought is far right while being left wing is because the writers are far left. Vought is portrayed as evil because they don’t truly lean into every left wing view. They aren’t gay enough.
“The writers are far left”
The fact that you think Hollywood liberals writing a show for Amazon are “far left” just shows how on point the satire in the show is. The writers aren’t far left, you just live in a whack job cartoonishly right wing country where you think “far left” means “doesn’t hate gay people”

you need to approach media and not cry every time you see someone that doesn't completely align with your world view, or just stop being racist. the problem with the show is not that a character is black, its that its poorly written.

Minor fun fact I wanna throw out, Garth ennis creator of the boys, really hates Captain America. The reason for this I because apparently he thinks Captain America is disrespectful to actual vets, mind you that the character of captain America a was created by 2 actual veterans and Garth Ennis has never served a day in his life in the army.
Side note: I don't hate Ennis and I do like his Punisher stuff, however a lot of the guy's writing can come off as being needlessly edgy for the sake of being edgy.
Still a damn better writer then Kripke
You know it’s bad when even Punisher respects him to a degree.

@@yungdre4500 Fair play but was still laughable from the Jew
Not just that, but The Shapeshifter could steal all of Annie's memories and mannerisms as well, and Hughie only found out because _she was being too nice to him_ to be the real Annie. Not only that, but they revealed in her rant to Annie that Shapeshifter could've taken out Hughie any time she wanted after she got the evidence deleted from his computer, but _genuinely_ liked Hughie and was disgusted at how poorly Annie treated him and The Boys and how awful of person Annie was to everyone, including Firecracker.
But the writers ignore all this build-up for Annie to grow as a character and reform from her past selfishness to unironically double-down in it at the end by victim blaming Hughie for SA after it only happened to him a week ago and after he just lost his father. Any self-respecting man would have dumped Annie right then and there.

One thing I found so annoying about the discourse surrounding this season was the whole, “It was making fun of the right the whole time” argument.

How is it shallow, bad fait or a straw man? Trump in the debate literally was saying lines that Homelander said in episode 6 🤣

All the Vought characters say smartest woman alive to Sister Sage, while I distinctly remember Huey saying smartest person alive, all because the writers want to make the argument that the boys are morally superior for using her preferred label.
The thing is, if Sister Sage is the smartest person alive, she is de facto the smartest woman alive, so she isn’t correcting people, she is just being a bitch.
Smartest woman alive/Smartest man alive both imply that the other gender might have someone smarter. Smartest person alive is more totalitarian in this case.

The problem with writing "smartest person in the room" characters is they are only as smart as the writers are. Since most of the time, writers are not that smart, the "smart character" basically becomes IQ Jesus who can solve everything instantly because its all just so elementary to IQ Jesus.
My biggest complaint is that they won't let Hughie's character progress. He's the main character in the show, and he's either doing nothing or doing the same arcs over and over. Went back and watched season 1, and he actually was useful to the team! He was the butt of the joke then as well, but he still did stuff.
Season 3 didn’t do him much justice he saw nueman pop somebodies head he had the guts to stand up to homelander and he’s the bad guy for wanting to protect people he cared about and I get it insecurity and what not starlight was kinda a hypocrite in season 3
He needs to be the leader in Season 5
Well, to be fair, characters don't have to develop and grow. But this logic also works in the opposite, so it’s very strange that a character who has survived so much always returns to square one. Again, I don't want the characters to praise Huey or to have him succeed at everything. But when characters in a series with continuity always talk like strangers in an elevator, it's annoying. Even more annoying is that Huey is forbidden to be emotional. He cannot be jealous, selfish, upset or anything. He should always be a comfortable yes-man
-Huey, I had an abortion.
-Okay Annie
-Huey, your father needs to be euthanized and there are no other options.
-Okay, Kimiko and Butcher
It's simply not believable. Leftist authors simply want the main characters to always agree or be neutral about what the party says. Again - I'm not saying that Huey would be definitely against it, but they show that he is definitely for it.
@@ahoramazda6864 100%, characters can be static if it fits the story. However, it doesn't fit the story. There's too much happening for Huey to not only not change, but also regress.
@@mongarfreenam1393, I would also note that there is a lot of fake progression in the show. A striking example is Starlight. They are trying to sell us that her slacktivism matters and that she is now “Annie” and so on... But this has little effect, because she does little like Annie. She is almost always provoked into action, but she is rarely the initiator and is a very passive character. Beef with Homelander from last season was completely forgotten.
Marvin's family was brought back only to be rid of them again. Considering that the recast is so noticeable, I'm surprised why they kept MM in the first place, considering he doesn't contribute much to the show. They could have retired him, given that he is the most normal of the team.
Same goes to Huey. They added his mother and made her a Vought employee to kind of shoehorn her in, but she wasn't actually needed for the plot. Her only purpose is to inject Serum V into Huey's father, so as not to make it his action and responsible for the negative consequences of it. Simply put, the authors took away the character’s choice so that someone would choose for him and he would not commit an action that the Democrats would not approve of, because they would only approve of euthanasia.

And it’s so obvious it was just put there so Redditors could shit on something nobody remembers from 2009, because it’s brought up out of nowhere. The writers are completely unaware of what satire is
This is something the left loves to do. It's called 'problematization', and it basically just means going back to any old thing and poisoning the well in terms of discussion about it, and generally moving discussion about it toward a left wing bias, so that 'serious' discussion about whatever it is has to always include those perspectives. There used to be a whole ass blog on Tumblr called 'Your Faves Are Problematic', all about 'problematizing' media, which was quite popular, and considered an early example of 'callout culture'. The example you gave of the random Transformers reference is perfect, since this tactic tends to work best with things that are too old to be part of the current conversation, or were never super popular to begin with, since there won't be any knowledgeable fans to call bullshit. Like just recently, I saw a vid in my recommended titled "The Strange Conservatism of Forrest Gump"--an easy target; FG is popular, but no one is exactly talking about it now, so if you want to step in and 'problematize' it, you can.
Kinda weird the show that's supposed to be all progressive and be a "serious" take on the hero genre and the repurcussions and consequences of such that is oh so mighty and against the chuds ends up VERY REGULARLY using rape as a punchline.
I guess it's (D)different.
Who in the fuck lied to you and told you this was a serious take? The show literally has a guy who's power is to shoot webs out of a little asshole on his back and you genuinely thought "Ah yes, this very serious show is making very serious claims"
I swear conservatives have to be some of the most braindead people on the planet right next to the liberals who say that biological men can fight biological women.
It's somewhat poetic irony that the show is turning into the comics down to the bones, by Butcher being the coolest character, and there being an unnecessary amount of sexual, vioent, and racist scenes.
Annie is their self insert. Her character arc this season was her learning she isn't the perfect moral princess she pretends to be, which she immediately unlearns after killing the shapeshifter and blames Hughie for being SA'd, then "forgiving him" by telling him to get tested.

The worst part about The Boys and season 4 especially is that the political messages seem to be speaking to no one. If you already agree with the show's politics, you aren't given any material to test your boundaries and help you grow as a person. If you disagree with the show's politics, you're essentially just being told to go fuck yourself instead of there being an honest attempt to persuade you to think differently.

Here is the biggest plot hole in the entire show for me: Butcher's cancer.
So the V gave him cancer, weird. It's never done that to anyone else, ever. Last season Hughie took almost as much as Butcher, so what about him? It also gave him a little tumor monster that is shown to be present in the rabbit they find at the farm. The rabbit has two scenes where it is clearly shown to have the same disease Butcher has, but the problem is the rabbit was subjected to the virus that kills all supes. Not to V.
Also, his V-tumor/cancer is now sentient and talks to him, claiming to have power over letting the cancer kill him or not and when Butcher can access the powers. That's an empty threat though, because in the scene where Butcher is in the religious nut's trailer and about to die, his V-tumor saves him. It's self preservation, which completely flies in the face of the threat about just "letting Butcher die."

What?
I couldn't care less about this show, every fan of it literally repeats the same thing at the minimum criticism they find: "You're angry because is making fun of you" and some bs about Garth Ennis being the anticrist based on that PointlessHub video.
The last thing i was kinda interested in seeing was TekKnight and they just made him another racist Bruce Wayne/Trump type of character instead of something actually interesting like they did in the comics (A guy who wanted to be a hero but couldn't because of that brain tumor affecting his libido)
Unironically the comics are better than the show.
We dont even see him in his armor. Absolute character assassination
@@jDavinxi honestly it's so goofy and ugly it's entertaining for being sleazy. The show is too perfect, I genuinely think the bad artstyle of the comics lends itself to the atmosphere
The comics are also generally more british in nature rather than American
@@valance10 Aint no way you thought this up, typed this out, and then clicked 'post' and didnt once think, "man this is probably the worst take I have ever created"
The whole Kimiko and Frenchie storyline immediately tipped me off that this was a waste of time and that creators had zero respect for their audience’s intelligence.
I hate this show so bad but everyone around me loves it and never shuts up about how good it is
Here's hoping for season 5 being super shit so you get rest
I saw people on Twitter saying “Season 4 is actually pretty good if you just watch the first and last episode, its an 8/10.” Like what? If 90% of a season is unwatchable garbage, it shouldn’t go above a 3/10. I thought they were baiting but no, they’re being 100% serious.
Reminds me of how everyone watched Stranger Things season 4 with rose tinted glasses and then realized how shit it was after it ended. Probably going to see a lot more people openly dislike this season in the future besides the retards that are genuinely going to die on the hill of defending any half baked slop that even vaguely supports their political beliefs
@@yungdre4500 how would they even consider ep.1 good, i watched up till ep.3, each and every one of these episodes was abominable, quit halfway through the 3rd episode, the "muh magatards" convention was too cringe, and i'm not even an amerimutt, can't imagine how they can even stomach it
@@yungdre4500 there are to many of those people, they will point out a good portion of what makes a show bad and still say ''but i still like it 8/10'' HOW ???? WTF IS WRONG WITH UR HEAD BUDDY ?! and they wont even point out what makes it good even when asked...
Dude any channel willing to call out our Jewish brothers and sisters earn my subscription
Same, I just added another one the other day. Keep 'em coming RUclips algorithm!
Shabazzian Tricknology will no longer oppress the Albanoids and the Children of Yakub!
The only good thing about The Boys are the Homelander reaction GIFs
Facts
also anthony starrs performancs is great. Everything else about this show is shit
@sayanghosh4519 well, Karl Urban is always a joy to watch. But I'm pretty biased about that, lol
I've used the gif of his look of disgust at Firecracker so many times already.
FATHER YOU TOOK A MONTH BREAK AND NOW YOU ARE BACK, THANK YOU I LOVE YOU POOKIE
That's some freaky sneako sounding-ass words, homie.
The Boys mistakes being cynical, edgy, vulgar and gross with being intelligent and mature.
Homelander is a character that is undoubtedly a tragedy of what would happen to superman if instead of being raised by the Kent family he was raised in a cold lab by uncaring scientists who not only radicalized him but also subjected him to extreme forms of torture to find his limits without any care of what it would turn him into. The way this show refuses to show that and constantly make him the bad guy shows the lack of empathy and creativity that they all have.
They want to make him the most vile person but also want to give him a tragic backstory.
This has been done better ngl.
But I won’t say Homelander isn’t decent as a villain, even if Antony Starr carries.
