After watching episode 1-2 this weekend, I liked. It's much better than Hancock, and even better than the Watchmen. I would have rather paid to see this. The cast is strong, don't see any weak points yet, and so far the episodes bleed together quite nicely. literally. The lead is very strong. And it's easy to root for the boys. Will watch the rest. Seems like the critics should have given it higher ratings.
Man I think I messed myself up by reading up on some of the summaries of the comic's plots. If you enjoy this show and haven't read the comics or any summaries. Stay away. I know the show has deviated somewhat but there are still some small things they might use in the TV show from the comics that if they do, will be a shocker.
The infant baby of stillwell. Just seems like a weird addition to the movie if there isn't any purpose to him.
Yeah, maybe I'm dumb, but I don't see the show as very left wing. It's just super cynical and dark. So yes, Christians, military, and corporations (well really just one) are evil. But then, pretty much everyone but Starlight is evil or deeply flawed to some degree. That's just the position of the story's universe.
It's a series on Amazon Prime, Ensign. Get over yourself and remember what forum you're in, OK? We have a place for that crap. It ain't here.
yeah, lol. I pretty much watched most of the big spoiler stuff not knowing it was supposed to be spoiler stuff. I was just trying to find out about the powers of The Seven, but it unraveled from there. oh well. I hope there is something to this. Or maybe a dead baby on Butcher's resume adds to his character of being a real dipsh-t not caring about collateral damage as he tries to get revenge on the Supers.
First, did the baby Stillwell die in the explosion? If baby is still on board, then who finds it and raises that thing. Who would be the first to her home? I would think baby Stillwell represents the eventual replacement of Homelander, his eventual nemesis, and the one who kills his current son. I cannot fathom who the father is, but it's not Butcher. If I were to guess the baby does not have superpowers because the mother thought he was unsafe, so a normal father, and no compound V. Which would mean that the baby was saved by Homelander and possibly will be raised by him too.
My thoughts: Spoiler I kind of thought that since they had a thing, the baby was homelander's and Stillwell said she had a baby some other way just to "protect" homelander. Then, now that homelander knows he can make kids, he's going to try to go and make his own super army.
Not sure about the baby. Spoiler Seemed like it was a prop to make Stilwell pro human and force the weird oedipal vibes during the leaky milk scene. The trivia section says Stilwell was originally a dude so baby probably a new addition. Also, all babies were presumably normal. Stilwell probably wouldn't give her infant the V and flip the coin on possible rejection. The twist makes things bad for the mundanes...
We just started watching this. So far it's great. Some over the top scenes that came out of no where, but that made it fun. I'm hooked.
LOL. You can watch Trump lie to your face instead. You don't watch much stuff from Hollywood, do you? CBN, Pat Robertson, and Fox News must be your Entertainment!!
Wife and I binged this over the weekend and we loved everything about it. The cast was really good from top to bottom in this show. I could honestly watch a dark comedy spin off of The Deep. Our thoughts on the ending. Spoiler Wife and I have two different theories to the season. I think Becca wasn't raped and my wife thinks she was. She thinks Vought threatened her to disappear with Homelander's baby and to raise the baby. Whereas I think it was planned with Vought to get with Homelander and have a baby. The doctor at the end said his life's regret was that Homelander wasn't raised with a caring family but rather in a lab. So I think they are experimenting with Homelander's kid being raised in a loving family. We both agree that Vought is experimenting raising a Homeland jr in a loving family but how the baby was born is up in airs between us.
Spoiler I don't think she was either. I'm not sure how much Vought was involved for that part initially, at least since it's been assumed they're sterile (but then maybe after it was discovered he could have kids he wanted to confirm the powers transferred), he also knows Homelander is broken because of being raised in a lab so they wanted to protect the kid from being broken. With that said, while Homelander wasn't raised in a family environment the later supers were starting to be raised in one. So I think they know those results, I really think this was more to prevent Homelander from realizing he doesn't need the Corp and if he has his own super heroes he can basically raise them broken and be even more viewed as a God to the lesser humans. This is kind of already shown where he basically sees humans as disposable, and with knowing ahead of time he could create a family it would probably have caused him to start breaking protocol sooner (like after the plane incident when he is speaking on behalf of the company or pushing the military contract before he gets the go ahead, he's starting to realize that he doesn't need them and he's been manipulated this whole time), he's basically getting bored with being told what to do. I mean they basically manipulated everything with him and created a super that really doesn't have emotion or care for humans.
