The Boys, Amazon

[jasonluckydog]

If you dont have Amazon prime get the 30 day free subscription and watch this series.  I'm on episode 5 and wow its awesome.  It's one of the best super hero shows out there. 

 

Very graphic some rape and nudity not for the kids. It's based on if super heroes were real people and how most would end up like dicks.. mixed hardcore Deathpool and Watchmen x10.

 

Check out the reviews. 

 

A+

Have a great day.

Watched this Friday, was really good.    It's sad because the way capitalism and all that is in America this is exactly what would happen to super heroes lol.   Also the religious stuff is exactly how it would go too.

Karl Urban and the Banshee guy own this show.

Just finished season 1. It seemed to me like it came to an abrupt and fuged up end but I still enjoyed the hell out of it. Looking forward to season 2.

Great first season, but yeah, the ending was fuged up. They basically copied the ending from another Amazon series, The Widow. That makes sense though, as they'll be able to stretch the story out over more seasons going in this direction. In the comics it was more along the lines of what Butcher believed happened in the first place.

We watched the first episode last night.

Pretty good so far. I like the subtle shots at Hollywood/idols/capitalism that I'm getting.

Watched the trailer and was able to sell the wife on it so I'll be watching this, trying to catch up on Euphoria at the moment.

I watched the first 2 episodes last night. I like the fumbling attempts to grab power back from corporatism. I'm in for the ride after these debates this week.

I'm on EP 5 I think, it started out good it was different its like a R rated "High School" drama,  but I'm losing interest the pace has slowed and I don't give AF about the characters. The acting is good lots of new faces I've never seen before. I think its only 8 EP long so I can hang until the end. 

The wife really likes it maybe its suited more for chicks....

Season 2 was quickly greenlit, Amazon has a hit. I loved the ending.  Seth Rogan and Evan Goldberg made Preacher on AMC and I love that series they have a thing for dark comics.

The Boys was excellent. Great ending and really great premise all the way through. Looking forward to the Watchmen series but this take was excellent. Excited for season 2. Homelander is such an interesting character.

Loved the show!  Can't wait until next season when, my girl Aya Cash, plays Stormfront!

The Boys was amazing. Binged it all in a day. I like the changes they made from the comics. will be interesting how much they differ from them in season2
