The Boys - An Amazon Prime adaptation of the Ennis comic series

[Kyria the Great]

I don't understand why they blackened A-Train. They already had a black character in The Deep, and he was arguably the most innocent of The Seven. They could have done anything with him, made him to be more of a significant villain, or have him switch sides and become a good guy later in the story for extra virtue points. All I can think of is perhaps the optics of repeatedly humiliating the black aquaman ripoff was too triggering for whatever brand of faggot worked on it, so they made him white instead. And also a rapist.

The deep should have been the most serious of The Seven to contrast with the rest caring about the image of the Seven the most getting pissed at Homelander for ruining a good thing.

Because black people run faster, duh. They need to so they can outrun lions in the Saharas and the police in the US.

So it seems like the leaks are more or less legit. This weeks episode sucked, I rolled my eyes at the ballsack retirement home fight. I’m so fucking sick of the stoner humor. The only really funny bit was when Noir broke the pipeline to get back at Deep. How Deep overpowered Noir though, I don’t get.

At least the story progressed a bit, but it 100% feels like they’re just setting things up for the spin-off at this point.

That storyline was awful. It just shows the tiny budget this series has. Everything happens off screen. Characters just announce what happened and there's no visuals. This show is performed like an audio book. You can listen to the show and get everything as they don't have the production level to build sets for the big moments.

How Deep overpowered Noir though, I don’t get.

Deep can survive the lowest pressures of the ocean so he's resilient. But Noir can fly which the writers clearly forgot. All Noir had to do was simply fly away when the Deep started choking him. Every superhero fight on this show is just two people throwing each other into a concrete wall or someone strangling someone to death. Gen V had better fight sequences as people at least used their powers.

All the storylines are awful. At least this one gave me a chuckle because it was such a bizarre and over the top way to get back at him.

Idk why he didn’t just flip him over his shoulders onto the table. It’s probably for budget reasons like you said. It’s a lot cheaper to film him getting choked out compared to what it would cost to choreograph, rehearse, shoot and edit a ’real’ fight scene. There was still room for the retirement home fight in the budget though

I was waiting for the ceiling slam, but it never came. They should have ended up killing each other because it's not like any of the 7 besides Homelander, Sage and SB matter.
