I haven't felt so vindicated about the downfall of a pop media darling since Game Of Thrones
Same.

I called GoT out during season 5, and people were in complete denial over how the show had jumped the shark then. By Season 8, I was just laughing my ass off over how bad it was.

And this show had a decent first season, but nothing mindblowing. Season 2 was so dumb that I knew to not even waste my time with the rest of the show. I had only read some spoilers throughout the years here and there feeling completely vindicated with every new spoiler I read.

But enough about walking dead.
 
It ultimately reinforces the Superman mythos. What makes Clark Kent different to Homelander, Dr. Manhattan, Miracleman, the Plutonian, etc?

Clark Kent is human. He has family and friends. Raised by decent folk who instill in him moral values. He chooses everyday to stand up for Truth, Justice, and the American Way.
You mean Truth, Justice and A Better Tomorrow :smug:
 
Feels like the show could've run for more than 5 seasons, the ending feels rushed as hell, with so many character arcs feeling rushed. All this hype for a fight that didn't even last for 5 minutes.
 
The comic's ending (Butcher kills all the boys by blowing them up) better than this piece of shit.
 
Did they make the guy who got caught on camera ordering the assassination of his own vice president the president again? Neuman wasn't even working for Homelander so there wasn't even a "but he had a point" element to it.
 
Homelander death was so underwhelming nothing was at stake and all the posters were bullshit no real threat was present and he died with ease not blowing up half the planet the comic while also shit was better also oh father death was stupid too and really easy they just blocked his mouth and he exploded not even a 1 minute fight no one will remmeber or speak about the serie anymore

Everybody already talks about how nothingburger this show was how bad the finale was etc. so i am not going to say the same shit.
I just want to talk about how unnecessary the whole starfight and deep fight was.
Girl could fly, just dump him somewhere far away, and come back. If you are going to seriously fight with him, why did you choose the waterside as the arena? your powers requires electricity and deep is more powerfull in a aquatic enviroment. Why are you so stupid? It is not like that you would have knew the animals were beefing with him lol.
You deserved to be cucked by the naming your child Robin to honor the ex of your soy bf.
 
Staar thinking he's going to get leading man roles in the future while being on the wrong side of 50 while his biggest role ended with him begging to eat another man's shit may be a tad too optimistic.
It's Hollywood, so he may well have to eat another man's shit in order to get a leading role.
