the fact that u dont even notice the change in his mouth movement is what makes it even more chilling.

He's not more a innocent kid. He's just a evil bratty. I won't cry if he dies.

@@CJM94dude it’s one scene

@@MlAGOTH One very intentional scene. Within the context, Homelander's usual sociopathic actions are teaching Ryan that this is a justifiable response to his future problems. And this is reinforced by his proclamation to Ryan earlier that "no matter what you do, [he] will always love you. I'm not going anywhere..." At worst this parenting can mold Ryan into a villain or maybe an anti-hero, because someone actually has his back compared the lack of trust and empathy Homelander dealt with growing up. No cared about him because they him, and this kind of teaching method will definitely not bode well for anyone. xD

@@r3doctave657 yap yap doesn’t change the fact that ryan just smirked and you just made a series of assumptions

Eso es horrible tan bien que fuera como su madre

everything but a good father to ryan, hes just obsessed about not being alone

Bro r@ped a girl and got her pregnant you think this is fair or a good father for his son?

​@@djolo5140nah you wrong, homelander is actually caring and trying to be a good father, he just doesn't know how to since he was raised like an animal, he said it himself, he had to learn by himself

​@@zackproductions7451People can change, Homelander turned out to be quite caring father to Ryan.

@@finlandguy427if Ryan didn’t have powers he’d see him as another useless fucken human that’s not love that’s an obsession

You saying that means it might happen

Idk do I want him dead or not

He doesn't love Ryan he wants Ryan to love him

Hh Jijiji

​@@localloser7415 when soldier boy and all others were ganging up on him in ep3 finale he made sure that ryan was ok then he went to fight...that doesn't look very selfish to me...yeah hes a terrible person but he does love ryan genuinely

Wait, betraying Soldier Boy was the right thing?? They literally had a good chance to kill Homelander and they fucked it up. Butcher could've just taken Ryan and ran.

@@Max-wz6cu They could have killed many other people in the whole process alongside Homelander. People who worked for Vought, but weren’t aware of its treachery, like Becca Butcher. The gunmen Kimiko killed but the tower, on the other hand, were people who only wanted money for killing the Boys, and don’t mean as much as every confused civilian who worked for Vought.

@@jaredthomas4663 They evacuated

@@Max-wz6cu But still, the building could have collapsed on people who were on the streets. And Soldier Boy was planning to kill all of the Boys too. And even if he did kill Homelander, he would still be the next biggest threat. Except he wouldn’t have anything to lose, and nobody to want to stop him. The only upside of defeating Soldier Boy for Homelander to live, is that Homelander is still has lots to lose. But the still main agenda of the Boys is to defeat him before the day he snaps like Soldier Boy.

@@jaredthomas4663 Soldier Boy wasn't planning on killing all of the boys lol. He was fighting them cuz Butcher switched gears on him and everyone ganged up on him. Soldier Boy is an arrogant bully but Homelander is a LOT worse.

Could you please explain what you mean by that?

He means by everyone being stressed out and directing there anger at Ryan while homelander never did that

@@anthonyortiz350 homelander always hold himself wth his kid you can look in all the scenes. with the kd he always try to be the best dad.

​@@blacky8987but his ego gets in his way. I'd argue Ryan would be better with the limey

​@@JaggedBirddo you want a boyfriend

Huh?

No he's not

@@edenramos9686 I believe that. Omni Man is a whole lot different from that prick.

Yes he will

You guys should stop comparing Omniman to Homelander and Brightburn

Yeah but obviously he did hold back

I don’t think turning her skin black is “lightly burning”. If HL wanted stormfront dead he could’ve done it just as easily as Ryan. But yeah you’re right, they are dropping hints that Ryan will outclass him eventually.

Except he was mad at Becca for lying to him. Meanwhile, Butcher blew up on Ryan in an attempt to push him away and literally told him that Becca’s death was his fault.

Lmao 🤣

fr lmao he looks totally different

It worked out no doubt. This kid can act. Fooled me. Wonder what happened with the first kid?

Anthony Starr lasered him

lmfao😂😂😂😂😂

and Mom did a great job

stfu he is so spolied

I don’t know smiling while your dad obliterates someone on half doesn’t scream high moral values.

Same

@@ThisHandleSystemCanGetNickedself defence

Not really, the only scene that would is Becca’s death as it was because of Stormfront but Homelander wasn’t the one that caused her death. Ryan was treated as a son by Homelander, he was a shit parent sure but he genuinely loves Ryan. Butcher treated Ryan like shit when he left him in Season 3, Homelander shows up and isn’t mad at him (the thing Butcher said he was), leaving Ryan with him as the only family he has left

@@aetherialbeing4223 except ryan knows that homelander hurt his mom and protected her from him on multiple occasions, and he knows that homelander and stormfront were working together when she tried to kill becca. i still don't think ryan's a bad kid - homelander just manipulated his feelings of betrayal and guilt over his mom's death to get him on his side, and based on these scenes once he sees things clearly the thing that would make the most sense would be for him to switch sides again.

@@tabaxi Homelander wasn’t actively trying to hurt Becca, at least from what I remember. I wasn’t saying Ryan isn’t being manipulated, all I was saying was that Homelander genuinely cares about Ryan and Ryan was looking for acceptance and family (bottom of my comment), I never said he wasn’t being manipulated by Homelander

It doesn’t actually, it shows perfectly how Butcher’s reactions pushed Ryan straight into Homelander’s arms.

Not really, it's actually some of the better writing between season 2 and 3. Homelander's been pretty genuine and mostly truthful to Ryan, even in season 2. When Butcher, Ryan's now father-figure and protector, basically told him he was a monster, he felt more alone than ever because now he had no mom and now no "dad". Except for the one man who actually tried, and ended up telling him all the things he needed to hear in order to not feel like a monstrous person. Kids are *extremely* impressionable. When you treat them as an equal, like Homelander always did, you speak to them on a higher level than just, "Hey, you should think this or do this."

Sometimes?

A bit?

He is psycho fs bro but i agree

A little?

Tell me. Does a psychopath even have the capacity for love?

asura do it kill those so-called fake gods

Shortlived ? Ryan literally living with him now. Wym ?

@@Mybasedworld maybe the show will get ax cause of the protest currently

@@user-aguy1013 No, probably not

@@jimbabwe3 yup it thankfully did not get axes and it's it in post production so now we need to wait only

Bro he's a kid and Becca would've died regardless

Still doesn't change the fucked situation everyone's in now because he's just been given approval to publicly execute anyone who doesn't support him

nah the really love him for that

Some do most don't​@@blacky8987

Or to show that homelander uses all his eyespace to shoot lasers but Ryan has more POWER over his laser and it's more accurate than homelander. In 9:27 we see Ryan literally shove soldier boy with his lasers.

@@sujanibalu heat vision comes through all of the whole eyeball not from just pupil

well he is stronger, smarter and better

@@ortmaster7454 I doubt that he's smarter, his actions were always influenced by Vought

@@ederkim8107 "smart" is just the last crutch for people who are weak and worthless in everything else lol.

His iq is in negetive

WHAT SUPERMAN SHIRT?

Where

It's son

They did that because the first child actor didn't have any previous acting experience and if you notice, he didn't have any speaking lines and just stood there staring at Homelander during his brief scene in the ending of the first season. When the creators considered expanding the storyline with Ryan to give Homelander more of a human side to him, they hired the current child actor, named Cameron Crovetti, because he was already an established child actor who worked on other tv series and movies. He also has an identical twin so if he couldn't work the long hours it takes to film the series due to child labor laws, the twin filled in for him which makes it easier for the creators. Now that Cameron's gotten older, he has resumed the role full-time and his twin only fills in if Cameron becomes sick or gets hurt. I got all this information from reading/watching interviews from the director and the actors on the show. It's interesting stuff. I'm actually impressed by this Cameron kid. He's a good actor, especially that subtle smirk he did in the end of season 3. It was chilling and makes you worry he's going to turn out to be just like his dad, Homelander. I'll admit I'm looking forward to that, because the conflict between Butcher and Homelander fighting over Ryan, and Ryan struggling between wanting love and acceptance from a father figure and trying to depict right from wrong, is going to make for some good watching. And i have to say, Antony Starr, who plays Homelander, is just and incredible actor. He was meant to play Homelander.

Not anymore

Ryan like him dad

Yeah, he'll feel way better protected

Bro really has to make a MHA reference ah hell naw💀

@@KaboomEpic*insert foghorn sound*

You can tell when he grows up he'll be twice strong as homelander

What is the name of the movie

he is human after all 😭

I feel like Ryan eventually killing Homelander is way too obvious though. Like too obvious that the writers won’t go that route

Yup

Pretty obvious

The first actor died so they had to recast him

@@subs1514idk y but the way you said it so straightforward and bluntly, mirrors the dark humor this show has, may that guy RIP

@@sierrajohn7967 he didn’t actually just so you know.

Wait who did they recast? I just watched the show like 2weeks ago how did I not know this?

⁠@@diocesesius88ryan was recasted

Hehehe... yeah...the "greatest" super hero...

I hope I can be like him so that I can destroy humanity and end the world. Yeah, it's some kind of a kiddie dream

You are the real heroe

No Batman is

​@@Prestongarvey173no he wasn't made in a Lab! Get it?! That's my best joke because he's actually a real person and the non humans in this show are labeled superheroes as a species and his profile name is Homelander!

Bad both

​@@broggy52no just bad hero bro

Damian son of Batman? If yes, then glad that I found someone who thinks that Ryan does look like Damian a bit!😄 Although imo Homelander is the one with Damian’s personality, but Ryan has the look. If further nurtured by Homelander, Ryan might have Damian-like personality too.
