“you will be the man who will lead us” that’s all she needed to say. homelander didn’t care about creating a master race, he just loved the idea of being a savior
The stroking of Homelander's ego and loneliness is perfectly played. He truely does love her..not for what she stands or believes but for filling the void he sorely misses. And for that, he is willing to support even pure evil. See most problems in the world are from abandonment and loneliness issues. Monsters are made, not born
I love how Stormfront is treated like real life Nazis. She’s a monster, but you see traces of humanity in her like when she talks about her daughter. Aya Cash is a great actress.
@Melon Studios We are talking about the character. Who cares about the actress and of course she is jewish. I am sure the creators of the show think that is funny.
@melonstudios449it’s tradition for Jewish actors to be casted as nazi characters. It’s a funny nod to the audience and prevents actual nazis from identifying with the character.
Starlight definitely looks like what Stormfront wants her army of Aryan superhumans to be, so on one level it's an insult, but on another, it's a peek into Stormfront's real agenda.
@@woodrobin She lacks the convictions and ideology, so everything else is meaningless to Stormfront. She didn’t say “war for the races” she said “war for the culture.” She’s fully aware that her enemies include white people too.
Cash really nailed this scene. The way her voice gives at 1:40. Not acting a German accent. But rather, she managed to do that subtle voice break that elderly people have at times. She gave the audience just enough time to process that she's very old, and then brings the vocal quiver. It makes you feel she really is that old.
@@constants_are_variable Yeah. I never met my grandparents but I could imagine this is a common experience. Except the innocuousness of the act is then juxtaposed against the images of absolutely grotesque people. They did a good job in this filming.
As much as I dislike Stormfront as a character, her actress is killing it. It is just such a fucking incredible touch listening to her German accent slip in and out of her speech patterns the more emotional she gets.
That's really one of the great things about The Boys, how it takes characters who are meant to be our antagonists and fleshes them out so they feel like real people. A-Train has a performance-enhancing drug addiction that's literally killing him, the Deep's superpowers have made it virtually impossible for him to form relationships with non-aquatic creatures and is currently being taken advantage of by a cult. Even Homelander is struggling to find some form of love and acceptance outside of the quasi-Oedipal relationship he use to have. This is easily one of the best superhero shows ever created.
The actress for Stormfront did a really good job that I’m not really sure if she’s being genuine when she says “I love you” to Homelander or if she’s just saying it because she knows Homelander’s weakness in wanting to be loved.
I love the portrayal of Homelander when it came to Stormfront. He's not a Nazi, but as a narcissist, he is indifferent to anything that doesn't affect him. He doesn't care about the suffering caused by Nazis, but he also doesn't really care about Stormfront's goals. But when he sees following the Nazi route as a path to his own benefit, he will happily walk down it without hesitation.
It's the most perfect interpretation they could've taken. A lot of shows fall into the trap of making their main villains have a safe kind of edge. As in, they want to portray them as bad people but also not do anything that would offend public sensibilities. In a lesser show, I could see homelander completely combatting stormfront's ideology right from the start. But here he recognizes it potential usefulness and utilizes it, and when stormfront's dreams go up in smokes, that's when he calls it all off. It makes him look slimey and two faced, making him still look pretty villianous rather then suddenly be taken over by their writer as a mouthpiece to explain why ethnocentriscm is bad, all the while not making him offend the public sensibilities. It was a very well done case of villain writing.
@@MrDarudin What if he *IS* Frederick Vought? If Stormfront was somehow able to obtain the fountain of youth and assume various identities over the years, why couldn't he?
In a way not getting powers till she was an adult is a great advantage for Stormfront. She's still willing to learn and knows she needs to plan and be patient. Homelander has always had powers and it's made him both arrogant and lazy. The changes to Stormfront from the comics are a huge improvement.
@@jsmalls911 I think stormfront is still stronger it’s the Wonder Woman va Superman argument. Diana is thousands of years old and experienced but Superman is just to strong
Homeland was brutally abused and mentally destroyed since his birth. That's by far the biggest problem. And they don't stop with that. It's almost absurd how stable he still is...
@@trauko1388 why would a nazi make a female hitler clone... that's literally against the vision of nazis and she was born in 1919 hitler wasn't even the leader yet
@@magniwalterbutnotwaltermag1479 Obviously, that was my theory BEFORE her origin was made clear, and it included early-V being ineffective on Y chromosomes, which is why it was a short, dark haired-female version of Hitler. Otherwise, why would the NAZIS pick such a non-aryan looking test subject? She should have looked like Starlight or Homelander, ever seen an SS poster? Female Hitler made sense in a nazi context in order to justify the actress they picked. For that matter, why would a nazi MARRY a jewish looking woman? The nazis actually investigated people for race purity... The actress is quite good, but her look is wrong.
@@trauko1388 i could'nt tell that she was "jewish looking" i looked at her and saw the earrings and when she said berlin in the germanish accent i was sold, idk how you could tell someone looking like a jew since the germans needed records for that, also nazis did'nt care for looks like blue eyes or blonde hair, they were ideal but all you meeded was to be celtic germanic or nordic without jewish or slavic grandparents. Also Vought married her before she was tested with V and when he saw that they were losing he defected and that's probably when he first started to perfect V.
@@AbhimanyuChannel First official and american supe created by Vought (the company). Vought (the man) gave Stormfront the V out of record when they were still in Germany,
When Stormfront says "He made me. And his genius made YOU." it sends a chill down my spine every time. Stormfront could easily have become a one note, nazi-villain but here she comes across as both relatable and terrifying from one moment to the next.
I think what makes Stormfront's character more despicable for this revelation is the fact that since she's so old, she's capable of changing and adapting to the times. She's 100 years old and knows how to act like a modern day person, she knows memes and computers, but she refuses to give up the 20th century eugenics era racism. She won't let go of it when she's capable of having changed, she doesn't want to. That alone makes her just unspeakably the worst; at least Homelander's antipathy is towards everyone, Stormfront is a genocidal maniac and the absolute worst
The irony is that only in our current age could outright racism like hers take firm root again, when the media on both sides of the aisle is all too happy to encourage fear and divisiveness.
Her relationship with Frederick Vought might have enforced her racist views. He was the only person she truly respected, and when he was gone, she felt obligated to continue his mission. Also, in her eyes, Homelander was a living proof she was right; if he were black, or even better: a benevolent figure like Superman, she would likely experience cognitive dissonance, and possibly realize how wrong she was. Alas, it didn't happen. Despite her pretty face, she remained a bitter old lady, her mind trapped in a maze of conspiracy theories. If she weren't so dangerous, she'd be pathetic and pitiable.
One thing you may notice about Homelander (or rather Antony Starr’s portrayal of him) is how he demonstrates emotions and thoughts through his face. Often when he’s listening to characters talk or argue or whatnot there’s often some tick or slight of the head to show that perhaps he doesn’t believe them or knows they’re lying or is preparing some sarcastic but brutal reply. Observe Homelander here though especially when Stormfront is telling him about her origins, her Nazi past, how he is everything Vought stands for and it’s coming from the woman he loves. This is quite possibly the only time Homelander is genuinely listening to what he’s being told. There isn’t an ounce of facial expression on him, he’s a complete blank. It’s... unsettling.
It might also be because he is so terminally bored by every single person with whom he interacts, that to be genuinely surprised in this way made him actually pay attention
He gets the twitch whenever he feels his control of the situation slip - his discomfort and deeply seated lack of confidence are showing. Here its quite the opposite - he's being praised like a god he's (almost) always believed himself to be.
He doesnt have the vulnerabilities that we humans have. So having to hide emotion, is much like having to clip your toenails... you have to do it but... what frequency?
you need to remember that homelander can read human boudy so he knows when people its telling the truth or not.... and in this escene homelander knows for a fact that stormfront really love him in a pervert and creepy nazy racist way but she is not lying.
What makes this show great is that it would be easy to make Stormfront a cartoonishly evil Nazi, but they instead chose to mix humane elements with the evil just like with Homelander. It's amazing how this show improves on the comics.
@Natasel what do you mean by your people? Nazi? Germen? what are you talking about? people don't just hate Nazi because they lost, but because they're racist as fuck and people nowadays don't support Fascism.
I was genuinely shocked when I watched this scene for the first time. It didn't even click in my brain from before when she killed those black people in cold blood in that apartment, that she enjoyed actually making them suffer and wanted them dead. But this made it all make sense. I guess I just couldn't fathom anyone in the show being a person like this, and thought it was just another case of another supe hurting innocent people as Homelander does left, right and center. The Boys never fails to out-disturb itself one moment after the other, and this one took the cake imo.
What makes Homelander disturbing in this scene is that you can see that he actually doesn't believe in any of that Nazi bullshit 3:00. Like, he is evil but smart enough to know that those are the ideals of crazy and weird fanatics (He doesn't care about race, he only cares about his power). BUT. The moment she mentions that HE will be their hero, his Ego activates. Thats right, he is ready to join anyone as long as he can save his precious Ego. Because thats the only thing he has ever got. He was raised without parents, so he has mommy issues. He was raised with unmeasurable power and no sense of responsability, so he has no morals. And most importantly, he was raised with no free will and the only purpose of being a mediatic marketing image. So the approval of the masses and his feeling of superiority is the only thing he has. And now that he is losing it, he is getting crazier than usual. If he has to be even more radicalized to be the beloved Hero again, so be it. That makes it a way more compelling and interesting Villain that someone who decides to be a Nazi because he actually believes in Nazism.
Yeah... not really. The "er" was american and the "in" was too. In german the "Ber" would sound like "bear", and "in" would sound like a long E with an N at the end. something like Bearleen
The fact that they put the theme song from the Golden Girls in as a soundtrack for a love scene between a 102-year-old Nazi and a custom-designed Aryan Übermensch is perhaps the single most f___ed-up musical choice ever. It's absolutely perfect in its utter wrongness. I never imagined a version where the verse "if you threw a party, invited everyone you knew . . . " would be a Nazi Party.
Stormfront: blathering about races war and superhuman strength to fight Homelander: you full of crap Stormfront: ah, I forgot to mention you are the leader Homelander: thinking twice that superhuman war stuff is a great idea!
Well yeah. He's not a Nazi, but stroke his ego and tell him that he is the greatest thing ever produced by humankind and will be the great leader of the most perfect humans ever made? He'll heil all you want him to.
This scene convinced me that Aya Cash is really a gifted actress. Tone and demeanor are totally different from Stormfronts usual sarcastic and snotty self. Instead it's a mix of urgency, humbleness and at the same time fanatism.
Absolutely agree. The first time I saw this I felt a genuine chill (not speaking figuratively, I literally felt a cold rush, which I don't get very often) when she spoke of being in a "war", because I absolutely believed that SHE absolutely believed it. There was a real sense of conviction, a sense of a patriotic hero trying to inspire others to stand up and fight for what's right before everything is irretrievably lost (because as far as she's concerned, that's what she is,) and hearing her nail that tone while spouting Nazi nonsense was terrifying. When I imagine people being indoctrinated into Nazism I obviously imagine Hitler's furious speeches to the masses, but I hadn't considered how the very human desperation/hope combo she displays here could be even more impactful. It's definitely worth thinking about with regards to neo-Nazis, as most people are probably pretty resilient to the Hitlerian crescendo as a brainwashing tool because of how much we've seen it discussed and mocked, but I can imagine a modern person being susceptible to her.
She did a fantastic job indeed. It's like she's becoming a totally different person and the mask slips right off when she starts talking about how Frederick Vought made her and in turn, made Homelander.
Depends, there could be hundred of thousands of supes and none stronger than him, I dont think he would mind. But if they were making Homelander 2.0 then yeah he wouldn't like that one bit
@@francargeric1 They won't be as strong as Homelander because he was subjected to compound V in utero while most other supes are getting as children/early adults
@Phillip in comics. Again they already said they are going with different route. and no, black noir was not much stronger than homelander in the comics.
"the first successful V injection" Damn, makes me wonder what happened to the other people before that were experimented on with unsuccessful V formula. Also it's funny how Homelander listened to Stormfront's whole story and the one part that got to him was Stormfront was a mom and older than him lol. He's into that.
Some may not have liked Stormfront being changed to a woman, but this version worked out greatly. The gender swaps with certain character in this show aren’t there for “SJW Agendas”, but to serve a purpose in the narrative. This Stormfront actually has a humane side to her, having a former family with the founder of Vought, adapting to modern times for her plans, and forming a romance with Homelander that builds his character even more, all while staying true her comic book counterpart’s Nazi beliefs. This is how you adapt material, by making changes that improve the story while at the same time remaining faithful.
I honestly love the idea that the nerdy, meme-wise, "empowered modern woman" character is the one that ends up being the NAZI. I can just imagine all the feminists who weren't familiar with the source material immediately loving Stormfront, then completely doing a 180 when they realized what she really is.
@@felicityggreene7831 Sometimes it works, but that is not the norm IMO. It all depends on the writing. The problem is when they make gender changes that are not reinforced with good writing. And sometimes, the changes are so nonsensical that even good writing can't make it seem authentic. It's much harder to write well with agenda-driven stories, and most of the time, the writing is what makes these changes either succeed or suck.
1:45 Stormfront - “and... the most important man in the room...” Me - “if she says Hitler, im gonna freakin- Stormfront - “my beloved husband” Me - “... oh.... this awkward”
Daniel Keller I totally thought she was referring to Goebbels as the most important man in the room. Made sense to me because they have using propaganda as a weapon in common.
3:00 look at homelander shaking his head thinking 'I can't believe this'. He never cared about race - to him everyone is below him; but his eyes lit up when stormfront said that he'd be the man to lead them because that would fuel his ego and his need to be adored.
that speech she gave is so disturbing not just because it's the same kinda speech kkk members and skinheads use... it's the passion she gives in the speech that's disturbing. aya cash is a damn good actress...
@Screaming Soldier Yes the point is that she's called *Stormfront* . Neither the show nor the comics do subtlety (which is fine) but the name doesn't exactly hide her motives.
1) Never Forget "HOMELANDER" is a mockery of POLICE / MILITARY of Nazi Germany / Amerikkka, as we stole our 'Office of Homeland Security" from Hitler's 'OFfice Of Homeland Security". They are PSYCHO CRIMINALS yet society thinks kops and soldiers are the Good Guys and the press and govt LIE that kops, like Homelander, are the good guys! 2) I always call State Troopers, STATETROOPERS, ha ha. 3) I missed where starbucks wrote "STOREFRONT" on SF's coffee!
I still think "White Wedding" by Billy Idol would have been better. Hey little sister, what have you done? Hey little sister, who's the only one? Hey little sister, who's your Superman? Hey little sister, who's the one you want? Hey little sister, shotgun It's a nice day to start again It's a nice day for a white wedding It's a nice day to start again
Yeah, that's a major flaw when protraying racism or prejudices. Having people trying to justify them. Strange how it never occurs to movie-makers and story-writers that trying to justify ones own prejudices is the first sign of doubt towards them. And that in a time in which prejudices and even racism seems to be on the rise again. (Though it's likely not on the rise, it is just showing again, which is maybe even more terrifying.)
@@happybeingmiserable4668 Sorry, but that's just not true. Hitler was all in about Aryans and the "actual" Nazis did round up and kill people for being different. That they did not manage to kill as much black people was just due to not many black people living in "the Reich" during that time. Hitler was also Allied with Soviet Russia at first, you know.
@@VulpesChama Hitler wasn't allied with USSR, it's an anti-USSR/Russian propaganda. USSR made a non-aggression pact with Nazi Germany, but it was the last one of major powers to sign such pact. If you are thinking about a secret protocol to it, it's still not alliance, it was basically a promise/statement that USSR and Germany would NOT invade certain parts of Lithuania, Poland and Finland. Basically Germany promised not to take eastern Poland and USSR promised not no take western Poland.
@@VulpesChama No, understanding other people doesn't mean agreeing with them. Actually, declaring that understanding other groups is evil sounds pretty dangerous/fanatical/radical to me.
@@0bviouslyDave Yeah, with The Boys Garth Ennis wanted to outclass the explicit content of his previous comic Preacher, when he probably should've kept the explicit content on par with or lesser than Preacher.
@@0bviouslyDave To be fair, the comic doesn't really try to be realistic, it's a satire of parts of the DC and Marvel superhero universes as well as his usual opinions.
Only just watched the 2nd season. It sucks because the show makes you really like her until she reveals her true self. It's so well done. I really liked her portrayal.
The fact that she says “supermen” is actually very important and it’s not really a reference to DC, it’s a reference to the nazi concept of the “Ubermensch”, which means “Superman” in German. The idea was that an extremely strong aryan hero would appear to win the race war. This is what she sees in homelander. The Ubermensch.
I don't consider Homelander to be any better than Stormfront morally, people keep giving him kudos for not being racist like her but the way I see it, he's not racist because he doesn't care enough to be racist, he doesn't think any race is superior, just that he is superior to all. That's why even though he doesn't share Stormfront's views, he doesn't care that she has them either, his attitude is basically, "why do you think one colour cockroach is any more insignificant than another? They all belong on the bottom of my shoe."
Quite honestly, I'm not surprised Homelander, the face of Vought, would fall in love with a Nazi, nor am I surprised that Vought would employ Nazi supes in the modern era, since it was created by a Nazi in the first place
Homelander thrives on being liked by people, and he fundamentally needs people to be honest with him or else he gets homicidally angry. She did both of those things in this scene and won him over.
I still think "White Wedding" by Billy Idol would have been better. Hey little sister, what have you done? Hey little sister, who's the only one? Hey little sister, who's your Superman? Hey little sister, who's the one you want? Hey little sister, shotgun It's a nice day to start again It's a nice day for a white wedding It's a nice day to start again
That's how one can think. She thinks "her people" created compound V so all supes are their creation and her "people" are thus, superior. Homelander has another more "rational" reasoning, and that is simply that the supes are superior. Homelander thinks that a black supe is superior to a normal white person and that would have made him seriously clash with Stormfront down the line. I'm kinda disappointed that Stormfront was killed off early because that would have been a very interesting conflict to explore.
@@TheJotaroKujo"killed off too early"...from a certain point of view. Given the nature of Vought International and their experiments, goals, and methods, Stormfront might have been taken underground for "improvements"; while the PR declares that she died due to her wounds.

The actress for Stormfront did a really good job that I’m not really sure if she’s being genuine when she says “I love you” to Homelander or if she’s just saying it because she knows Homelander’s weakness in wanting to be loved.
I think she loves WHAT he is and represents, but not actually HIM.
Probably both.
What I find hilarious is the actor who plays stormfront is a Jew.

I love the portrayal of Homelander when it came to Stormfront. He's not a Nazi, but as a narcissist, he is indifferent to anything that doesn't affect him. He doesn't care about the suffering caused by Nazis, but he also doesn't really care about Stormfront's goals. But when he sees following the Nazi route as a path to his own benefit, he will happily walk down it without hesitation.
It's the most perfect interpretation they could've taken. A lot of shows fall into the trap of making their main villains have a safe kind of edge. As in, they want to portray them as bad people but also not do anything that would offend public sensibilities. In a lesser show, I could see homelander completely combatting stormfront's ideology right from the start. But here he recognizes it potential usefulness and utilizes it, and when stormfront's dreams go up in smokes, that's when he calls it all off. It makes him look slimey and two faced, making him still look pretty villianous rather then suddenly be taken over by their writer as a mouthpiece to explain why ethnocentriscm is bad, all the while not making him offend the public sensibilities. It was a very well done case of villain writing.
It’s very familiar
Homelander: (in his head) “Stormfront… has a daughter, she’s a mom?…. Mom?… Mommy… MILK?!”

In a way not getting powers till she was an adult is a great advantage for Stormfront. She's still willing to learn and knows she needs to plan and be patient. Homelander has always had powers and it's made him both arrogant and lazy.
The changes to Stormfront from the comics are a huge improvement.
Doesn't matter, she had 80 years to master her powers and is that world's first metahuman.

Homeland was brutally abused and mentally destroyed since his birth. That's by far the biggest problem. And they don't stop with that.
It's almost absurd how stable he still is...
It is mind-blowing when someone like homelander discovers a person crazier than him.
What a lovely mother-son bonding moment where she tells him about his long-lost family.
Who else thought she would say Adolf Hitler ?
Here.
my theory was she was a V-infused female clone of Hitler, so yeah.
@@trauko1388 why would a nazi make a female hitler clone... that's literally against the vision of nazis and she was born in 1919 hitler wasn't even the leader yet
@@magniwalterbutnotwaltermag1479 Obviously, that was my theory BEFORE her origin was made clear, and it included early-V being ineffective on Y chromosomes, which is why it was a short, dark haired-female version of Hitler. Otherwise, why would the NAZIS pick such a non-aryan looking test subject?
She should have looked like Starlight or Homelander, ever seen an SS poster?
Female Hitler made sense in a nazi context in order to justify the actress they picked.
For that matter, why would a nazi MARRY a jewish looking woman? The nazis actually investigated people for race purity...
The actress is quite good, but her look is wrong.
@@trauko1388 i could'nt tell that she was "jewish looking" i looked at her and saw the earrings and when she said berlin in the germanish accent i was sold, idk how you could tell someone looking like a jew since the germans needed records for that, also nazis did'nt care for looks like blue eyes or blonde hair, they were ideal but all you meeded was to be celtic germanic or nordic without jewish or slavic grandparents.
Also Vought married her before she was tested with V and when he saw that they were losing he defected and that's probably when he first started to perfect V.
The fact that Stormfront was the first ever supe is something that shouldn’t go unnoticed in this show.
I don't understand . Then what was soldier boy?

Love the fact that Homelander just doesn’t acknowledge the whole “I’m a Nazi” part
When Stormfront says "He made me. And his genius made YOU." it sends a chill down my spine every time. Stormfront could easily have become a one note, nazi-villain but here she comes across as both relatable and terrifying from one moment to the next.
I think what makes Stormfront's character more despicable for this revelation is the fact that since she's so old, she's capable of changing and adapting to the times. She's 100 years old and knows how to act like a modern day person, she knows memes and computers, but she refuses to give up the 20th century eugenics era racism. She won't let go of it when she's capable of having changed, she doesn't want to. That alone makes her just unspeakably the worst; at least Homelander's antipathy is towards everyone, Stormfront is a genocidal maniac and the absolute worst
The irony is that only in our current age could outright racism like hers take firm root again, when the media on both sides of the aisle is all too happy to encourage fear and divisiveness.
Her relationship with Frederick Vought might have enforced her racist views. He was the only person she truly respected, and when he was gone, she felt obligated to continue his mission. Also, in her eyes, Homelander was a living proof she was right; if he were black, or even better: a benevolent figure like Superman, she would likely experience cognitive dissonance, and possibly realize how wrong she was. Alas, it didn't happen. Despite her pretty face, she remained a bitter old lady, her mind trapped in a maze of conspiracy theories. If she weren't so dangerous, she'd be pathetic and pitiable.
@@Hachimaro no she's is a crusty darth stormfront
@@Malikav0311 your time in the spotlight is over, please retreat into the shadows from whence you came
@@Justin-ib2iz Oy Vey, shut it down.
One thing you may notice about Homelander (or rather Antony Starr’s portrayal of him) is how he demonstrates emotions and thoughts through his face. Often when he’s listening to characters talk or argue or whatnot there’s often some tick or slight of the head to show that perhaps he doesn’t believe them or knows they’re lying or is preparing some sarcastic but brutal reply.
Observe Homelander here though especially when Stormfront is telling him about her origins, her Nazi past, how he is everything Vought stands for and it’s coming from the woman he loves.
This is quite possibly the only time Homelander is genuinely listening to what he’s being told. There isn’t an ounce of facial expression on him, he’s a complete blank. It’s... unsettling.
It might also be because he is so terminally bored by every single person with whom he interacts, that to be genuinely surprised in this way made him actually pay attention
He gets the twitch whenever he feels his control of the situation slip - his discomfort and deeply seated lack of confidence are showing. Here its quite the opposite - he's being praised like a god he's (almost) always believed himself to be.
He doesnt have the vulnerabilities that we humans have. So having to hide emotion, is much like having to clip your toenails... you have to do it but... what frequency?
you need to remember that homelander can read human boudy so he knows when people its telling the truth or not.... and in this escene homelander knows for a fact that stormfront really love him in a pervert and creepy nazy racist way but she is not lying.
Bro really said "do you see how he demonstrates his emotions through his face?" That's called acting
That moment when the joker has a stronger moral code than homelander
The Joker is a saint compared to Homelander like yeah no kidding
It s kinda sweet because in this scene Homelander finally had someone whom he truly loves actually tell him the truth
What makes this show great is that it would be easy to make Stormfront a cartoonishly evil Nazi, but they instead chose to mix humane elements with the evil just like with Homelander. It's amazing how this show improves on the comics.
It’s better than the comics. More grounded.

2:28 I love how he just hands the photos back and walks (almost stumbling) off trying to process the information...
I was genuinely shocked when I watched this scene for the first time. It didn't even click in my brain from before when she killed those black people in cold blood in that apartment, that she enjoyed actually making them suffer and wanted them dead. But this made it all make sense. I guess I just couldn't fathom anyone in the show being a person like this, and thought it was just another case of another supe hurting innocent people as Homelander does left, right and center. The Boys never fails to out-disturb itself one moment after the other, and this one took the cake imo.
get propaganda'd
it didn’t click that she killed innocent black people… and literally right after called Kenji a “yellow bastard” ? seriously?
@@until.davis. obviously it clicked that she was a racist hag, not so much that she's a hundred years old nazi
What makes Homelander disturbing in this scene is that you can see that he actually doesn't believe in any of that Nazi bullshit 3:00. Like, he is evil but smart enough to know that those are the ideals of crazy and weird fanatics (He doesn't care about race, he only cares about his power).
BUT.
The moment she mentions that HE will be their hero, his Ego activates.
Thats right, he is ready to join anyone as long as he can save his precious Ego.
Because thats the only thing he has ever got.
He was raised without parents, so he has mommy issues.
He was raised with unmeasurable power and no sense of responsability, so he has no morals.
And most importantly, he was raised with no free will and the only purpose of being a mediatic marketing image.
So the approval of the masses and his feeling of superiority is the only thing he has.
And now that he is losing it, he is getting crazier than usual.
If he has to be even more radicalized to be the beloved Hero again, so be it.
That makes it a way more compelling and interesting Villain that someone who decides to be a Nazi because he actually believes in Nazism.
Becoming a villain for purely selfish reasons is more compelling than a villain with a thought out ethos that's arguably right?
She also told him that she loved him

I never imagined a version where the verse "if you threw a party, invited everyone you knew . . . " would be a Nazi Party.

You should check out You're the worst.
"a mix of urgency, humbleness and at the same time fanatism"
Oh I like that..
Absolutely agree.
The first time I saw this I felt a genuine chill (not speaking figuratively, I literally felt a cold rush, which I don't get very often) when she spoke of being in a "war", because I absolutely believed that SHE absolutely believed it. There was a real sense of conviction, a sense of a patriotic hero trying to inspire others to stand up and fight for what's right before everything is irretrievably lost (because as far as she's concerned, that's what she is,) and hearing her nail that tone while spouting Nazi nonsense was terrifying.
When I imagine people being indoctrinated into Nazism I obviously imagine Hitler's furious speeches to the masses, but I hadn't considered how the very human desperation/hope combo she displays here could be even more impactful. It's definitely worth thinking about with regards to neo-Nazis, as most people are probably pretty resilient to the Hitlerian crescendo as a brainwashing tool because of how much we've seen it discussed and mocked, but I can imagine a modern person being susceptible to her.
@@mzytryck thank you for comment
She did a fantastic job indeed. It's like she's becoming a totally different person and the mask slips right off when she starts talking about how Frederick Vought made her and in turn, made Homelander.

Prob they just died since the rate of V adult insection is 20%
“Thank you for being a friend” I died.
Some may not have liked Stormfront being changed to a woman, but this version worked out greatly. The gender swaps with certain character in this show aren’t there for “SJW Agendas”, but to serve a purpose in the narrative. This Stormfront actually has a humane side to her, having a former family with the founder of Vought, adapting to modern times for her plans, and forming a romance with Homelander that builds his character even more, all while staying true her comic book counterpart’s Nazi beliefs. This is how you adapt material, by making changes that improve the story while at the same time remaining faithful.
I honestly love the idea that the nerdy, meme-wise, "empowered modern woman" character is the one that ends up being the NAZI. I can just imagine all the feminists who weren't familiar with the source material immediately loving Stormfront, then completely doing a 180 when they realized what she really is.

@@felicityggreene7831 Sometimes it works, but that is not the norm IMO. It all depends on the writing. The problem is when they make gender changes that are not reinforced with good writing. And sometimes, the changes are so nonsensical that even good writing can't make it seem authentic. It's much harder to write well with agenda-driven stories, and most of the time, the writing is what makes these changes either succeed or suck.
One could say they intentionally swamp gender her to be a parody of captain marvel and a jape at the SJW and the modern fascism

Only just watched the 2nd season. It sucks because the show makes you really like her until she reveals her true self. It's so well done. I really liked her portrayal.
The fact that she says “supermen” is actually very important and it’s not really a reference to DC, it’s a reference to the nazi concept of the “Ubermensch”, which means “Superman” in German. The idea was that an extremely strong aryan hero would appear to win the race war. This is what she sees in homelander. The Ubermensch.
I don't consider Homelander to be any better than Stormfront morally, people keep giving him kudos for not being racist like her but the way I see it, he's not racist because he doesn't care enough to be racist, he doesn't think any race is superior, just that he is superior to all. That's why even though he doesn't share Stormfront's views, he doesn't care that she has them either, his attitude is basically, "why do you think one colour cockroach is any more insignificant than another? They all belong on the bottom of my shoe."
I have to say this is one of the best acting moments and dark scenes I have seen in a while both on movies and television props to this actress

Quite honestly, I'm not surprised Homelander, the face of Vought, would fall in love with a Nazi, nor am I surprised that Vought would employ Nazi supes in the modern era, since it was created by a Nazi in the first place
well to be honest stormfront was probably the only person who didnt completely hate him so it makes sense that he sees her as a friend, i would too
Homelander thrives on being liked by people, and he fundamentally needs people to be honest with him or else he gets homicidally angry. She did both of those things in this scene and won him over.

Well thats a nazi. They all think that.
That's how one can think. She thinks "her people" created compound V so all supes are their creation and her "people" are thus, superior. Homelander has another more "rational" reasoning, and that is simply that the supes are superior. Homelander thinks that a black supe is superior to a normal white person and that would have made him seriously clash with Stormfront down the line. I'm kinda disappointed that Stormfront was killed off early because that would have been a very interesting conflict to explore.
@@TheJotaroKujo"killed off too early"...from a certain point of view. Given the nature of Vought International and their experiments, goals, and methods, Stormfront might have been taken underground for "improvements"; while the PR declares that she died due to her wounds.
