      @@SirToaster9330 I can actually agree with this point. There was a point in the second episode where some of the humor felt forced. The scene I'm talking about is the vigilante at the window scene. It just focused on the aspect so long. The humor besides that has worked really good for me tho

      From what we have seen, I don’t even think he’s awful to begin with. He’s clearly a mess but His heart seems to be in the right place, he’s not a mean spirited bigot despite his father, he’s a brutal killer but he clearly has morals. He is willing to kill to save lives and keep the peace. It can be shady but he’s not a hit man for the cartel for fuck sake.
      And he doesn’t need redemption for killing flag. He didn’t want to kill flag but flag have him no choice. And flag would have killed him if he didn’t !! He had a bomb in his head and he had a mission. He had to attempt to keep that information for getting out. He wasn’t the bad guy for that.

      @@Jackholiday1025 that’s not entirely true bro and that’s why he even has flashbacks to when he killed flag because he knows it wasn’t necessary…his mission was to destroy all traces of project starfish so he could have just destroyed the hard drive and his mission would have been accomplished even when rat catcher gets the hard drive he doesn’t try to destroy it but he tries to kill her and if you say that she knows what happened and she can leak it 1. No one would believe her because she is a criminal
      2.The only proof (the hard drive) is destroyed
      3. Waller will blow her head up before she can even get a word out
      But because of how peacemaker was brought up the only solution he knows to anything is to kill and that’s what he struggles with in the show

      I think it's an attempt to get away from the stigma of superheroes in tights that can be as ridiculed and parodied as it is iconic and lauded.
      I like the recent live action Power Rangers reboot movie for making the armor more stiff and realistically capable of taking a punch from a genetically engineered monster before it supersizes.
      It's not inherently bad in my view, but execution is everything. Trying to be adult, gritty, and serious just to attempt to be seen as less "kiddy and cartoonish" is just never going to end well.

      John Cena is someone that is so serious yet, so unserious.
      He can make the darkest joke and be the worst when playing games and can embarrass himself (mostly to make other people feel better).
      At the same time, he is someone that is so OCD/control freak that it makes other people uncomfortable and be so stern and brutally honest that no one can argue with him or convince him when he makes up his mind.
      I am a fan of John Cena, every version of John Cena. Been a fan since I was a child. I am so happy for him.

    @afr0cuban57 2 года назад +85

    I think the reason peace maker is succeeding is the same reason marvel succeeded.
    It’s because nobody knows who the character is, so it gives the director and the writers more freedom and leg room to expand the character and make small tweaks in their personality/origins to resinate with today’s audience. Rather than taking an already house hold name-comic book hero that ppl know and love, and built up their own expectations since they were kids.
    Example-
    Before 2008, who really cared or knew about Iron man, Thor, Black widow etc. ? Nobody! So when marvel was first starting the writers had free reign to make the characters how ever they wanted with little to no push back or hate from fans.
    Now on the other hand we all know who Superman, Batman, Flash, joker, darkseid etc. we all know who and what DC is. So when we see Superman snapping necks, and joker wearing jewelry and having tattoos we’re going to have a problem with it because it’s not the version of the character we grew up watching.
    -now back to my point about peace maker, nobody knows who he is so that gave James Gunn the freedoms to basically to create his own character and have fun with it. If it were a more popular character I GUARANTEE ppl would be hating on it. If it was deadshot or death stroke ppl would be like “this is stupid, death stroke doesn’t act like that”

    Not only should peacemaker have a season 2. But hardcore and vigilante should have a show of misadventures when peacemaker if off on missions. to run in the offseason of peacemaker. Where they can introduce new characters into the dcu. Like 1 mission could have weasel and another episode could have kingshark appearances.

    I love a lot of what this show has to offer, but I think the moment that absolutely cemented it and Cena as Peacemaker as a favorite in my book was the scene in the one of the last couple episodes where Peacemaker breathlessly, almost desperately, confesses to Harcourt "I don't want to kill people anymore." Just the way he said it, like if he didn't say it fast enough he wouldn't be able to say it at all, like it had been bottled up for so long and finally burst out in one breath, was such a beautiful moment and so painfully human.

Plot is several rungs uninventive compared to Wandavision or Loki and is fairly below average for what could have a political action thriller. Instead of a careful buildup of to a climax in the vein of, say, The Mandalorian, everything just conveniently comes together story-wise in the last episode.
      Instead, we have way too many domestic drama sequences which add very little to the plot or character development and only derails any show momentum.
