I just want to point out how funny it was when one of the Splinters was going "NONONO" as his face was pushed into the chocolate fountain, considering where his face had been earlier.
The Boys
A place to discuss the show The Boys.
Both me and the bf gave an audible WTF at the splinter centipede scene.....
It doesn't matter what weird shit has happened previously, The Boys always ups the ante with the bizarre sex and creative violence every time
For sure XD
Herogasm was quite something last season, now we get this. I wonder what they have in store for us in future episodes and in season 5....
And I can't get enough of Adam Bourke, those scenes are always very entertaining. I love myself any diss on modern Marvel I can get my hands on x)
HL getting the milkshake back from Ryan was such a HL thing to do, damn.
Was also nice to see Cherie again hehe
I somehow missed that but you're right. That's so in character for him to do after being disappointed in his son.
A few assorted thoughts:
- I was not expecting a Will Ferrell cameo, but he was great as always. That's the perfect sort of role for his comedy style.
- Also in things I didn't expect to see: When Frenchie and Kimiko were standing outside that sauna door. I expected them to walk in on gay sex. What I didn't expect was an ass-eating human centipede done by the same guy. It's like they saw that similar scene in White Lotus and said, "You know what would make this better? If instead of two guys there were 6 and they were all the same guy. Also, let's really let the scene simmer for a bit." Never change, showrunners.
- I knew from the last episode that A-Train was going to get a redemption arc, but I didn't expect it to start so soon in the season. I think he'll have a few more twists on his path before the season is up.
- It's also becoming more obvious that Ryan is going to turn on Homelander, but it's almost seeming too obvious. I can still see him embracing the dark side, at least until the latter half of S05.
- The look on the little girl's face after she was "saved" by Ryan yeeting the choreographer into the wall was priceless. That kid has a bright future in acting if she can already express that sort of incredulity at such a young age.
- Of course Homelander couldn't keep from inserting himself into his son's first save.
- Also, HL's reaction to Ryan crying. Of course he's so out of touch with humanity that he thought Ryan was upset at being upstaged rather than for killing someone.
- The fight scene at the end was great, especially the setup of a bunch of dick-swinging naked men barging into the celebration with guns. Also, when Firecracker stopped mid-fight to livestream her Jewish Illuminati conspiracy theories. What I hated about that fight was when they took cover behind an overturned table while taking fire from assault rifles. I know this is a show about superheroes so I can't expect realism, but both people there were human and that table would do jack shit to stop those bullets. It's a super minor criticism, but that just felt lazy in an otherwise great scene.
- I still have no clue what Sage is up to. She does seem to be seeding chaos in the ranks of the Seven, so maybe she is trying to take them down from the inside.
