Tek Knight was arguably one of the few legit heroes in the comics. His problem was a fixation on sex stemming from a tumor afflicting the part his brain responsible for lust and attraction. But he would deny any immoral feelings and would do his best to be a legitimate hero. And the show made him a grape lover
@RiceQube21Ай бұрын
Foreal, I didn’t read the comics but I did enjoy Tek Knight in Gen V. Super cool character despite lacking any physically imposing powers but in S4 of The Boys he’s just a racist and a sexual deviant who gets clapped after 90% of his screen time was just over the top, played out shock value sex stuff. What a waste.

(SPOILERS) The Boys season 4 is woke and that sucks yes, but the writing is also really bad as well, and there's plot holes and contrivances everywhere. Like how dumb Sage is despite being "the smartest person in the world." How Butcher's cancer could decimate an Alpha Level supe like Victoria. Like how Annie is called out for being selfish and malicious by both Firecracker and the Shapeshifter and she only proves them right by dismissing Hughie's double-S.A and making it _all about her_ despite being graped several times and his life being in danger all that time. How Ryan cares about his mother, but could off Mallory, who's basically like his grandmother. Turning Frenchie gay for an NPC nobody even remembers the name of, only to un-gay him for Kimiko, despite Kimiko permanently putting him in the Friend Zone since season one. The Deep being set up for a redemption arc considering he's living his life in fear, but then denied it for A-Train, who's been a douche the entire series, yet suddenly deserves "redemption." Or the several gross out genitalia scenes they have on the show, but showing Firecracker's breasts was "too obscene" for them (not that we needed to see that either, but the hypocrisy is insane.) I made it to the end of season 4 and will not be returning for season 5. And I almost never say that about a show. I'm not even conservative, but there's only so much mean-spiritedness and the writers being assholes to 50% of their audience, I can take. She Hulk already did that in 2022.

Naaahhhh fuck all that, suddenly A-Train actually has a heart and deserves sympathy, and Deep is still the same asshole from episode 1. Fuck this show and the dumbasses writing it.

Why do we need Tek knight to stare at A train for 5 seconds, talk about slave catching and saying his great great grandpa would’ve Catch A-train’s ancestors for us to know his wealth was built off of slave catching? They Could’ve added like a picture of an old man and tek knight describes him as his grandpa to A train before Atrain looks to his right and notices a display of a whip and Tek knight blocks his views, assuring him it’s for BDSM and not what he’s thinking of. You can add your message without making it insufferably annoying

A big one I noticed is how un-terrifying homelander is this season. In previous seasons the main thing that made him terrifying is the unpredictability. The moments where you didn't know what he was gonna do, if he was gonna kill someone, or attack them, that's what made scenes tense and drew you in. Every scene with him this season made me roll my eyes. You went into it already knowing what he was going to do as soon as he entered the room.

It’s more interesting when Homelander is doubting himself and questioning things.

The stuff they did with Tek Knight legit pissed me off. They went out of their way to make their world's version of Batman as comically evil as possible. Wealth coming from Prisons and Slave catching, making his Alfred equivalent an angry borderline slave, making his Robin little more than his gimp, his Batcave is a Sex Dungeon, and he's a sex obsessed, racist, elitest prick who everyone views as a joke and dies as part of a BDSM gag. So much potential with said character and they threw it all away to make a bunch of painfully obvious and heavy handed jabs at Batman, the rich and the like.

Every episode from 1-7 was just random things ending with 'shock values', while main plot inched only in the last episode that too as a step up to season 5, I mean think about sister sage, you could remove the character from the plot and nothing would change, starlight's whole activist group had no real consequence on 'the boys', the virus was nothing new they already introduced it in gen v so it had no plot advancement, Butcher had very little significant screen time apart from the ones with Kessler that actually focused on the main goal, I mean honestly it was really poor, they pulled off the last episode at least, someone can just watch the last episode and move on to season 5 and they would be more or less good. Edit: And my god they need to tone down their political pandering, I get it kripke is a lefty but his obsession has ruined the show
@josesosa3337Ай бұрын
Something I've been thinking about recently is that maybe the reason theres plenty of filler and scenes that don't matter is because the writers chose to focus on the 7 which means the world of the show has less heroes so they can fit the structure of a seasonal series. The boys comic has the main cast go up against more popular and "stronger" heroes so the comic has more oppurtunities to kill off badguys as they work up to homelander and the other heroes that are left alive in the ending. With less characters in the show its harder to write climactic battles and confrontations with consequences that matter. I know the show has other problems but I think less supes(badguys) is also a factor.

Butcher has gotten a slightly bit closer to dying. So what could have been accomplished in two episodes in season 2 takes up the entire season

"Is ryan turning evil?" THAT's THE POINT! he's an ultra powerful, hormonal teen who has complexity and isn't just one character description. You bitching about writers is just you not understanding nuance "if butcher trying to save ryan" LITERALLY EVERYTHING butcher has done has been to save Ryan, that explicit. How did you miss this?

Surprised you didn't use The Walking Dead as a comparison. That show started out really well, but in later seasons they had a season finale in mind (in line with the comics), and the rest of the season was a slow plod towards it, padding the season out with lots of filler episodes that had no bearing on the main story. That is what The Boys season 4 reminds me of. They have a finale in mind, to set the stage for the final season, but they can't write a story to get there as it would be too short, so they are padding the season with filler (not necessarily filler episodes, more as you described them, side quests). And as you said, these side quests have no bearing on the main story arc, they are just there to give the characters something to do to fill in the first half of the season, while drip feeding the story arc, in preparation for the second half of the season leading up to their desired season finale. I suspect the ending of season 4 will be the death of Robert Singer, the President, with the final shot of the episode being Homelander sitting in the Oval Office with his feet up on the desk, contemplating his victory and what he should do next, and probably also Butcher getting his hands on a version of the virus that is strong enough to kill Homelander but also every other supe as collateral damage, and his face showing he is going to use it (maybe showing imaginary Kessler killing imaginary Rebecca to show his dark side killing his good side etc).

I agree with your statement about everything just happening with no real purpose, and that's how the show felt to me in the first few episodes. This is the most direct the show has been about its politics, which can get tiring. It also feels like The Boys took exactly what made the show popular and just went fucking nuts with it at the expense of good writing. There has been a lot of ad placement too (which is exactly the type of shit they make fun of earlier in the show). But its getting more direction after the last few episodes and I still think the overarching story is good. I have also enjoyed MM's character. I really liked the show when I first watched it so I am trying to stay hopeful about it. It just feels different now.

It was done like clockwork. There was an actor on that show that starred on HBO's The Wire for a few episodes and he had more development in The Wire than 2 or so seasons of The Walking Dead. Anyway, that show's rise and fall...and spinoffs are just something I'll never understand.

This whole season is about each character's struggle..Starlight's energy, Hughie's parents, MM's family, Butcher's cancer, Deep's mental struggles, A-train's loyalty struggles, Homelanders power, Frenchie's relationship, and NO ONE care's about most of these characters. It's experiencing the same problem The Walking Dead did because it's not killing these characters off. These actors are like family now and they're too afraid to kill them off. All the interesting characters have been "killed off" while all the lame characters have remained. Homelander is this show. The more Homelander, the better. He's an anti-hero if you ask me. I actually can't stand the team, even Kimiko is annoying. Holy shit, SPEAK ALREADY! I bet there will be a severe ratings drop because many viewers didn't make it to that finale. It took a nosedive in season 3 with the story. Anyway, watching this now is like watching MSNBC. Next season will be like watching the news. People don't watch these shows for that purpose. Stop the anti-conservative agenda and worrying about diversity quotas and just focus on entertaining the audience. This season is at the level of something filmed during the pandemic or the product of a show that returned after a 2 years writer's strike. This is season 4 and it feels like it's already out of steam with filler. Maybe they're intentionally tanking it now because they don't know how to end it and want to work on spin-offs? Seriously, with TV shows now, it's a weak idea that gets a season, since a season is just 8-10 episodes, and if that season is a hit they have to make 4 more seasons and they have no idea how to do it. Back in the day TV shows went 24 episodes a season every year. They can't come close to that now. They know how to start a hit show, but that's pretty much it, and the streaming services don't care. They'll start a thousand shows and cancel them after 2 seasons. They got their views and that's all that matters. Then they'll make 5 spin-offs and comic book shows sell like drugs regardless. It's late and I'm rambling again. haha I just with HBO got this show, because I know they'd have given the fans what they want.

At this point it's better to watch Banshee instead. It has Homelander (Antony Starr) as a main character and all four seasons are well written. (Main story ends with season 2 though)

Season 4 is clearly setting up for season 5. Whilst it hasnt been the greatest season (most likely the weakest) i think the plot advances will catch up in season 5 due to the events in season 4. As for the political agenda, its way more clear than it was yes but the show has always showed a political commentary on modern society. However, i expect better next season

your criticisms are so nitpicky T_T kimiko and hughie going together wasn't detrimental to the plot in any way :// remember that the boys are a team, the pairing makes sense and its really not that deep lol. while there are a lot of plot points going on, it's still well written (being properly connected to one another and addressed in universe) and is obviously leading to converge in the final season. there is a plot and its in the boys vs homelander as both sides continue to develop their identity and goals. to say the show sucks now while being dismissive of the fact that there has been so much actual development and payoff this season. ryans back and forth between homelander and butcher, kimiko actually addressing her past, hughie tying ends with his family, starlights continuous fight for justice, and best of all atrains redemption arc.
@GenerationOffended29 күн бұрын
Seasons over and they didn't converge. Most of the stories sizzle out on their own. Hughie killed his dad, Frenchie was forgiven by Kimiko but her own story wasn't resolved. MM had his family story off to the side pretty much except one scene with A-Train. I could keep going but my point being that most of the season did not have central narrative. While the characters all ended up in the same place, it was hardly due to their own stories leading them there. It just happened.
@gia417628 күн бұрын
@@GenerationOffended brother they didnt sizzle out they got resolved T_T all the characters having different plot points was also an ok direction to go with. since its been well established that they all have their own goals apart from taking out homelander or other supes. kimiko for example, isn't with the boys because she has a personal vendetta against homelander, therefore most of her personal story was addressed this season. not having a clear central narrative doesn't necessarily mean that it's all filler or useless subplots. again, a lot of development still happened this season, and the s4 finale sets up a lot of stakes for the final season. the way i see it, the writers dedicated this season to better flesh out their central cast before the finale (which i feel they did so they could go all out on the action in s5). ig everyone has their own opinions regarding the direction they went with the "filler" moments, but to say that the show sucks now is a crazy overstatement.

The problem with the Boys is that it is a parody of real life American politics. That's why there are so many stuffs happened at once, those things need to be passed to parody real life. Homelander being Trump is an example. That being said, you have a point in the subplot. Kimiko and Hughie scene is so dumb.

Respectfully, this review is all over the place. The message constantly vibrates between "The main characters don't have any goals" and "There are too many characters who have goals" so quickly it's entered a new realm of blind confusion without addressing what's actually wrong with the show aside from minor nitpicks. All good characters have clear motivation with clear goals, and when there's not a big mystery unravelling the show will enter a state of all the characters being more free with what they get up to and explore what they want. This seasons them appears to be escaping your past, where each character has a different reaction. Homelander literally kills his past, Frenchie tries to punish himself for his crimes, Kimiko chooses to fight back against those who caused her pain, Hughie chooses to forgive A-Train for Robin and move on while Butcher confronts his violent past personality through his shattered mind. Choosing what questions to face your audience is just good writing, mix it in with uncertainty and surgical characterization.

Homelander is not a nuanced at all. Powerful character with a tragic backstory. That has been so many times. Madara , obito, broly ,thanos. Lets get real now. People like this show because they think it's edgy and violent. That makes people feel mature. Starrs performance is severly overrated. The facial expressions he makes are so forced and down right stupid. He looks like me in the fourth grade when i huffed and puffed to try scaring my bullies. None of these characters are actual characters. Theyre tropes. Theres no characterization moments. We don't even know what they want anymore. In s1 they were trying to get revenge for robin.
