/* ---- VIDEO INFORMATION ---- */
Welcome to the Heavy Spoilers show, I'm your host Paul and this video we're breaking down the finale of GEN V.
-
The short but sweet episode has a lot going on with it and the ending especially teases some major things. Erik Kripke and the creative team have been talking about this entry for a while and how it's gonna tie into the overall arc. Before the release of episode 7 they teased that this series would go directly into the boys season 4 and that that show would run into gen v season 2.
So we will definitely be seeing these characters returning and the way they leave things off teases a lot for the future. Full spoilers ahead for all of that and in this video we're gonna be breaking down the ending, easter eggs and what we wanna see next time. Please click the thumbs up button one last time for the show and with that out the way, let's get into the video.
-
Now we open in the aftermath of Shetty's death with Cate dealing with the influx of thoughts coming in from what's just happened. Interestingly Sam is the only one who doesn't really react to it and I couldn't hear his voice over during any of this bit. As we've seen man loves stiicking his hand up people like they're actual puppets and he's dealt out way worse deaths than whats happened here. He's used to seeing this kind of thing and thus doesn't react like the other do. - Zábava

where is lokiiiiii?
No
don't want chinese spyware thanks
The Arrow Films link doesn't seem to be working, prices are exactly the same as through the site normally.
This is gonna be like x-men final stand. Cates gonna be like Jean grey. And become more powerful to the point where she'll be able to mind control people without using touch.
You know what…maybe Soldier Boy wasn’t such a bad guy after all.
Lmao😂
While he's far from a good person, he's not outright evil.
?..I thought he was far from bad. He’s actually the good guy in the boys series.
He was a disappointment just like his son
At least soldier boy keeps his word
It's hypocrisy that Homelander says you like attacking your own kind when he kills supes as a deterrent and for them all to fear him all the time.
He definitely is the cop of the show
That’s his character lol a straight up menace.
Also cate was about to attack Jordan. I think this episode ruined the whole show
@@ratskraad5890this universe isn’t about happy endings and cliches though. The ending was realistic to what would happen if abused people got to give in to their urges and get revenge 😌
@@ratskraad5890 That's kind of the point, Homelander is a hypocrite, Sam and Cate, as well as Homelander, would all be amongst the first to kill superheroes
I said this before and I'll say it again. Gen V is what a spin off should be. Has it's own personality without deviating too much from the original source. Most importantly, blends smoothly to the main series.
to me it didn't even feel like a spin off after some time
it didn’t even feel like a spin off, it felt like another season from a different perspective
I was worried at first but it proved me wrong, W show.
The first 4 or
So episodes were pretty bad imo. But it all came together at the end.
The pewdiepie comment was wild tho 💀
Marie surviving a laser blast from Homelander is definitely a feat! That durability is strong!
They don't properly explain it in the show, but everyone who takes compound v has super durable skin.
@@TheUltimateZMANyeah but we have seen other supers get melted from the same blast
@@freddymeisnerthe only thing that could mean imo is she's physically tougher than stormfront with the ability of Newman meaning she's probably one of the strongest characters in the universe especially when she gets full control of her powers.
@@longjonsilver1307nah you can’t make that assumption. First off, we don’t even know if she actually survived or if she did, what type of injuries she sustained. On top of that, homelander controls his intensity. I doubt she’d survive a full blast. She’s tough, but I think she’s still leagues below someone like stormfront or homelander
@@i_kope_i66facts
Marie’s powers are insane! Being able to control not just her own blood but other people’s blood as well will end up playing a huge factor in the future.
But Newman is the counter because same powers and Newman is villains. Maybe they kill each other because otherone that is not Homelander can do it?
I don’t think in the way you’re imagining. Her powers are likely the best use of spreading that virus, remember he didn’t make it airborne in time, still only by body fluid.
Add that to Andre’s dad saying in earlier episodes how her ability is disgusting and “what if she had hepatitis or something? She’s a walking lawsuit waiting to happen”.
Also puts into perspective how Strong Nueman is.
She could take out Homelander...
@@HIWHYAIWYAGD Newman will keep Marie close.
Marie did a culmination of everything she has learned over the season.
1. She sensed Maverick's blood to see him.
2. She sped up someone's heart to help Jordan.
3. She made blood knives to kill the sup headed for the helicopter.
4. She exploded a body part (Cate's arm) to stop Cate from touching Jordan. ❤
Which can explain that she might be the one on accidentally killing Luke
@@invincible946that would be crazy if true
@@invincible946holy shit ur right!
She was also able to predict when Emma was going to have her cycle meaning she can tell women exactly when they’ll have it , that’s crazyyyy
@@invincible946that’s what I think too
XMen had better be REALLY good, GenV just upped the stakes.
They really nailed their pacing, their characters had depth, the world was built quickly, they were able to connect to the Boys' universe w/o being overt (eye wink) and they had their own stakes....
Frr
🎯
This was my exact thought when I was watching the last scene I was like how will marvel be as good or better than that which gives me fear for X-men because marvel has to realize most of the superhero fandom are 23 and older and we all all grown I’m 27 and pg-13 just doesn’t work well for mutants because they have real deep and scary storylines and gen b just outperformed everything we seen with mutants so far
nah, I prefer the X men over these depressed, emotional, mentally challenged teens.
yes I do agree Gen V had more depth to their characters but for me they are like an emo Xmen group lol
@@aunknownspecies4153factss i feel the same with how dc heading too same as marvel and also how dbz is not aging with us but degrading dbs and now daima, everything is now degrading and for a honerable mention(fnaf too is now a mandatory kids genre)
Wasn't expecting homelander to attack Marie, even more a surprise that she tanked his heat vision. But Butcher coming in at the end was perfect as well because I suspect this virus will be highly appealing to him
She didn't really tank it. She was KO'd. He probably intended not to kill her.
@Bitchslapper316 Perhaps, but as far as I remember there has only been three folk that could handle his heat vision without being cut in half, like the new and improved polarity said, anyone else and they would have been in the ground. I think it's meant to show how powerful Marie actually is more than anything
@@The_Ex1Le I think he was just giving her a pep talk. If HL wanted to kill her he would have. We seen several times she can easily be cut with a knife so her durability isn't even on the level of Starlight.
@Bitchslapper316 I agree with that, but you also have to keep in mind, she's a supe cutting herself. There's a difference imo from a normie doing that
@Bitchslapper316 Also I'll say, he does pep talks yeah, but the one thing he believes more than anything is that the supes are superior. I don't think it's a pep talk, more a projection of his beliefs
it’s so funny how homelander say’s “do you like attacking your own kind” but he killed so many supes 😂😂💀
He's basically become what stormfront wanted so he's just finishing the misson
Those supes in his mind had betrayed the supe cause besides maybe termite he was small but seeing as HM has super vison and hearing he prob saw and just decided to end him
Termite lost his powers from Soldier Boy's blast@@thedragon1363
@@erickrasniewski567 She will be back as well. No way she casually died off screen. She has a strong healing factor so she's probably in a vaught lab regenerating.
@@Bitchslapper316 depends I wouldn't be shocked
The actor Anthony who is homelander is so good as him the way he can make me feel unsettled or worried about any characters he is around is crazy and doesn’t even have to talk half the time it’s just the look alone he gives, such amazing show The Boys and Gen V respectively what a great ride
Fr bro. His facial expressions are enough to send a chill down my spine lol like you never know what's he gonna do next and knowing how powerful he is, it's fucking scary
He’s an amazing actor, watch Banshee in Max he’s the main character in that show and of course he’s amazing in it.
Fr the fact you can have such a presence nonverbally is something to be fucking proud of
So true, I feel like I’ve developed a mild ptsd to his presence. Just seeing him terrifies me…
When he flew in I felt like i was in trouble😅
This season showed that the downside of V is some sort of neurological breakdown in many forms. Think the neurons exploding when everyone was in Kate's head, Sam's hallucinations, his brother's meltdown, Andre's headaches and his dad's seizures, and it really explained Homelander's general madness and the other supes' psychotic behaviours.
It clearly shows that some people get a bit of the short straw when recieving mass produced V. I do however believe that the supes' psychotic behaviours has more to do with a superiority complex that they've all developed throughout their lives. Like spoiled rich kids who can do whatever they want
And don't forget the effects of the Temporary V. This chemical is poisonous overall.
@@SunshineCasy temp V causes brain problems if you use it long term. It caused Butcher to have 1 year to live due to abuse. Ultimately Giving him cancer
@@SunshineCasy to be fair its still in its early stages Temp V of what butcher and Hughie took it could be less detrimental to your mind but instead the body
@@SunshineCasy my theory of temp V is that it accelerates the natural time it takes for your body to take in the compound V. Thus, taking more harm and damage at a quicker rate.
That's why with temp V they just naturally know how to use their abilities whereas people taking compound V like Marie or even Homelander, find out about it and then develop their powers over time.
This show overall had been a really great spinoff. I'm a little sad by Cate and Sam's villainous arc, because they were genuine victims. But super satisfying finale.
Cant wait for Season 4.
Their villainous side actually makes sense, they were both used and abused. Sam has been abused so much and lost his brother and cate was used to manipulate friends. The people that didn’t side with them didn’t experience the same stuff. Truth be told I sympathised with cate and Sam and feel bad for them
I love how it’s such a closely directed spin off. It really just felt like another season of boys rather than a contrived attempt to parlay off the original properties success.
@@astrladam4392yes yes yes.
@@sammayomi5547 sam is kind of another homelander, similar back story so similar outcome
mostly every evil character in these shows has a tragic or rough background, the worse it is the more evil. HM similar to sam with years of torture but since birth and no family and about 20 more years of life, A train n his rough upbringing fueling his need to stay successful no matter the cost, Deep's fragile ego from being bullied all his life, Butcher's rage from his upbringing and his wife (yes billy is on the evil side of things) Soldier boy and his father so on n so on lol everyone besides stormfront fuck that nazi bitch lmao
Definitely setting up the Supe takeover from the comics. And it makes sense Vaught covered it up that way since Homelander is controlling it through Ashley
I wonder did they already know Marie and the gang knew too much or did cate tell homelander and them everything
I believe Kripke said the Boys has a 5 season plan so S4 is probably the takeover with the Oval Office killing ending the season and S5 being taking out Homelander
@iamaustinpierce I assume Butcher will use the virus but I assume the weaker verison that just got rid of their powers then he's going to fight Homelander without any powers
I think Ashley and Kate and sam allowed the guardians of godolkin to live by persuading homelander Ashley could probaly still turn them into something beneficial for vought
My only thoughts regarding the ending with homelander is:
1. How does this play with his story line of him being on trial for the murder of the civilian
2. Knowing most of the student body are homelander fans. How does his presence and immediate attack against the guardians get swept under the rug or never mentioned by the present students. Most of them probably saw the guardians stopping and saving others, just for homelander to block their efforts. Seems like something that should be explored with a sentence or two of dialogue.
This. Changing the victims and the killers should not work with hundreds of winesses plus internet. And why would he protect Care abs Sam? They want to destroy Vought and just kill people. And who told homelander which people should be arrested and who are the "heroes"? Someone must have explained him the whole situation.
The Finale was really good. The suspension and the confusion is killing me now. I was also excited to see Butcher at the end. Can't wait for Season 4 of The Boys.
What if when Emma feels "small" emotionally, she shrinks. Her powers can be controlled emotionally? No need for food abuse
Free Emma! Best character 😢
I thought Homelander would show up at the massacre at the end and kill them all. I wouldn’t have been surprised if the entire main cast died instead of coming back for boys season 4. Everything I thought would happen did except for the fact that they survived
if it wasnt confirmed for a season 2 that probably would have happened
@@dantemitsoyu977it is confirmed
That would be predictable, they already had that ending for one of the episodes of The Boys Diabolical
@@dopeshitslol9999He said that
I was expecting omni man type scene
Soldier boy was a man of his words . Tried to kill homelander despite knowing he's his own son.
Butcher and homelander are the bad guys here .
Idk about butcher he ain't a straight hero but he ain't a straight antagonist like homelander
Soldier boy wasn’t a good guy either😂like comparing bundy to hitler, multiple characters can be bad without being as bad as the other
@@beanhead5398 Neither are as bad as Homelander but an argument can be made that Butcher is worse than SB morally.
That is the point if this series, there are no good people, just people with shades.
@@bhoot2194 Idk about all that. Supersonic(Starlight's ex) was a genuinely good guy, despite the fact that he was in the series for such a short amount of time. The most he was guilty of was singing a cheesy, sexually suggestive pop song.
marie is my favorite character. getting to see her grow so much throughout the season was a sight. and cate was also pretty great, seems like everyone else got put on the back burner this episode but still an amazing episode
Disagree! Emma‘s scene this Episode was huge and she’s definitely a fan favourite. But the episode was very short overall.
man i feel bad for emma the most, she didn't kill or fight anyone and still got locked up via association lmao
I love the detail of Sam not reacting at all when he was being electrocuted with the baton, until his body gave out.
Solid finale. Definitely sets up the storyline for the virus, homelander killing off the president, Neuman becoming president and the boys taking the godolkin 4 on to take on homelander. Sam may take on Black Noire’s position and potentially being enough to kill homelander.
I agree with all that but I think the only one that can kill Homelander is Marie. The writing is setting that up. I do see similarities between Sam and Nour with seeing characters.
@@ms.bubs4fun506 I feel like Marie will be the answer to Neuman’s powers. Either Sam or Ryan will take him out.
Whats the virus in the comics? Also Home killed president man in comics, so Home vs Newman its possible?
Also, who is Sam? I will watch this show as long as i finish my study. Thanks a lot for your time
@@ms.bubs4fun506lol definitely ryan is the one to kill homelander he's basically a clone of him
@@HELLISH43it’s gonna be Ryan Marie and the boys who finish off homelander
black noir being Sam makes so much sense! I can see them doing that.
When Andre pulled the stun stick they did a rack focus on his left hand showing his ring finger twitching giving us a visual queue that his brain is far more damaged than we thought.
They already showed it before with the helicopter
What an amazingly well written show. It really puts Marvel to shame.
Disney marvel wishes they could write like this. They're too busy destroying their company.
i 100% agree but loki has been good too
@@sb1sb9fr loki been carrying
Trust me if marvel started being gruesome and not scared to fucking kill then it would be untouchable
just realised something big, the same way black noir sees cartoon characters of everyone its the same way how sam see's puppets in everyone, sam is 100% new black noir how crazy
When home lander dropped i had a sense of dread. The boys universe is 10/10 imo. Felt every emotion for the characters
Tbh I’m kind of excited to see what happens with Cate and Sam now! They could even potentially make it onto the Seven.
Um cate has one hand
rt but with the technology and the fact that there may supes able to heal her.... yea she can get it back@@Youralllate
@@Youralllateshe can either get a new one or decide not to because at the end of the day, she’s able to use her powers without touching anyone!
what made you think i would ever allow a cripple into the seven
@@YouralllateWith Voughts technology they'll probably grow it back.
Sam had black noir posters in his room. And if HL is Infact gonna manipulate them to do his work… maybe he puts Sam in the black noir fit to cover his death. Idk just an idea
This show was fantastic. The wait and watch of the finale was insane, i just LOVE how it leads straight into the boys season 4. Hypes me and im sure others up for the future of this universe
Felt like the ending was a little rushed. I was honestly a bit upset of how Sam did a 180 on Emma like that, like mentally hes a emotionally stunted child but damn she never dud him dirty or ever looked down on him. I knew that things would go from bad to worse when Homelander finally showed up.
he's known her for about a week at most. in that entire time he's done whatever she asked, i undertsand where hes comig from
You just liked the couple
@@Ziaotic well that's a good point. You only have so many options after being freed from your captors. If they exposed Godolkin University/ Vaught for what it's done it they would have probably killed everyone and gaslight the entire story to the uninformed population.
I guess I'm upset that Sam and Kate are the ones being "saved" by Homelander and while Marie and Co are locked up for attempting to save human life.
I think it's a low in their relationship but they will be back together, Emma cried but didn't hate Sam.
Interesting how the good guy is basically Magneto and the evil one's powers relate to Xavier.
5:11, Looking closely, they refer to his power as “Magnetic Telepathy” instead of “Magnetic Telekinesis”, wether due to a production error or (less likely) an intentional error to characterize Vought as somewhat incompetent.
They use the word telepathy to associate it more with the brain.
Just watched it and honestly that ending was such a massive cliff hanger. I love how Vaught’s first instinct was to call Homelander, a known rogue hero with anti-human sentiments to the scene where supes are murdering non-supes. It will be interesting to see how they develop Cate as a villain more and how Sam will continue to battle with his conscience. He may even get a redemption arc next season.
Is it me or was anyone else excited to see Homelander back only to be immediately reminded of how much of a terror he is. The worst villain of all time. Like Hans Lanza but OP as fuck.
Imagine if Homelander’s powers end up being taken away by Marie. She controls blood, meaning she might be able to straight up remove the V from someone’s blood.
neuman could do that too, but it'll probably be the virus or homelander's son
@@alili945 I love that it’s very open ended, lots of room to surprise us.
No. Homelander powers are genetic it wouldn't work. That's why he's the most powerful supe, until Ryan matures.
Y'all are hyping her powers up way to much. She can't do anything to him, he would kill her instantly. Neuman who has been using her powers a lot longer is terrified of him. He even dared her to try and kill him.
I don’t think she’d be able to remove the V. She only controls blood, not liquids.
Regarding emma, no one except emma knows how her powers work, everyone who knows about her powers thinks that it has to do with food
What’s scary is we still haven’t seen cate’s full power is, her medication is still having an effect until the last episode
On her full power she probably don’t even need to touch someone
I wonder what if Cate also somehow managed to control homelander to get on her side ?
One thing I’m so confused about with the ending is Cate and Sam being used as marketing products? When they hate Vought? Like wouldn’t they be against Homelander’s narrative?
It’s a supe vs human thing. Not Vought. Vought is the mask for the supes now.
@@Psycho18710Vought is the fucking reason Woods existed and they made experiments on them
@@SQOUREEVought is a human controlled company
They're basically using it as cover. Cate and Sam are aligned with Homelander to a degree, its logical just to go along with it for now.
Same reason homelander is still aligned with vought I guess, bc ppl still run the world in the ways that matter as far as money and perception and their using it until they can take over.
Its so interesting that emma's power arent food dependent i feel like that is going to be how they escape from whatever facility they are in? Like their captors will limit her diet as a way to control her power, but now we know thats not the only way.
her powers were never food dependent. It's just that whenever she feels "small" she gets small, she hated herself when she threw up but when she started eating she felt good about herself, hence why she became bigger.mSo pretty much empathetic size manipulation.
@@Darkershadeofwhitevery sound theory
I don't think they are being held prisoner. That room may not have a door but it wasn't a cell. They aren't locked in individual cells strapped down like we seen in Vaught tower, the forrest and Sage grove.
I'm guessing they are being held there for a short time. Maybe it's the CIA or the boys holding them until they can come to an agreement.
So do we know whether Luke killed himself out of guilt like he said, or cate pushed Him to and Sam doesn’t know that. Both could drastically change the direction his character could go.
btw i dont know if you noticed, but they did show andres ring finger twitching during the part where he tried to get the taser button, indicating he has his father's medical condition
The “Fire Supe” they referenced in an earlier episode wasn’t that guy. It was a girl named Beth (the guard says her name when she brings her food) and we’ve already seen her. She was the first one they tested the virus on. Given that she was shown in that episode to shoot lightning, and that when she’s referenced she can also project fire, it’s safe to assume she has some kind of elemental powers.
I think Marie survived homelanders heat vision because he was told to capture them, not kill them, so he controlled his intensity (as we know he can do)
Who told him? HL doesn't answer to anybody anymore. I dont think he wants to kill supes if he can avoid it anymore, his focus is on creating a coup.
Hmm, that makes sense… But do you think he really cares what anyone tells him? I feel like if he believes they are horrible criminals for attacking their own kind, he’d rather just take her out. But then again, maybe he had something in mind for her. It’s hard to tell. The writers are really good 😅
@@a.h.1980 probably had something in mind for her and them, since they’re all in hospital beds seemingly to bring them back to health and keep them alive. Guess we’ll see soon!
Not me refreshing my feed to see this video😂 Love the content!!
OMG!!! I was waiting for this like an addict!!!!😂
Why does Homelander always look like he just had dental work done?
Man, these breakdowns are dropping quicker than my thumb on the fast forward button during an Opera GX ad. Great work, appreciate all that you do.
I outright yelled out loud when HL showed up, but the music absolutely worked to remind me that his presence was bad news. I was nonetheless hyped to see him 'cause I didn't entirely expect him to appear. Then he chastised and lasered Marie, and I went, "yep, that's so like him."
Just occurred to me, too, that the way Marie and co. got smeared after this season is kind of a mirror to how The Boys were likewise smeared after their first season, on top of the latter having to go into hiding.
This episode, This ending and the build up...speechless🔥🔥🔥!!
Agreed, much better than expected. Very few are commenting on this series, glad you did.
9:58 Rick Dalton pointing at the tv screen
The ending was confusing. Loved the season. Pinning it on the group was shady though.
FR pinning it on fucking literal kids but that's homelander for you why we still surprised
Gen V was much better than this week's loki or Invincible.
are you for real? 😂😂😂
gen v have cringe dialogue and weak storyline/plot.
better than loki and invincible lol
ive been checking youtube CONTINOUSLY for your video
everyone is on different sides in these different situations- but at the end of the day it will always be everyone else versus homelander- I believe Cate and Sam are gonna think Homelander is on their side, in this humans versus supes war they believe is happening, BUT homelander doesn’t care about anyone but himself- he is against supe on supe crime but that doesn’t apply to him- he sees himself as superior to everyone even to other supes!!! everyone is on different sides in these different situations- but at the end of the day it will always be everyone else versus homelander
So they lock 4 sup with 5 ability together in the same room:
Blood Bending
Metal Bendling
Size transformation
Sonic blast and Harden Skin
TOGETHER IN ONE ROOM?????? Are they mad?????
Is anyone else surprised at how good this season was? Like I figured it would be good but I didn’t think it’d be able to grip me as much if not more as the boys does but I loved every second of Gen-V
Andre used the force to grab the rod like Luke did in Empire Strikes back.
If Marie survived, it means that Newman can't be one shot for Homelander as we always thought.
That she wouldn't have time to pop Homelanders head because she can be one shot quickly.
But now we now that Newman can figth back, the same way Queen figth back.
All these characthers have fear of Homelander because they never tried and think they can get one shot.
Sure, Homelander wins against anyone 1v1, but this just proves that a good team up can do the job.
Lmao Marie is way stronger than Newman. It’s the whole reason Newman was curious about what else Marie can do. Newman would struggle making blood constructs she even says it’s exhausting whereas for Marie it’s easy. Notice how Marie’s eyes don’t get foggy blowing body parts up which means she’s not limited like Newman who has to see where she’s gonna do it. We also witnessed Marie have super strength picking up the wing of a helicopter with ease to use as a weapon and then taking a direct laser hit from Homelander and not having a scratch on her? Marie is gonna be one of the most op characters in The Boys just watch.
Makes you wonder though, what if Marie and Newman both used their powers on homelander at the same time, would that be enough to pop his head?
@@ruzurI was wondering that too. Tried to Google it but no dice.
Tru but also Marie is clearly more powerful than Newman so it’s entirely possible that Marie can take his lasers but Newman cannot lol
I assume Homelander wasn't using his full strength he could've killed them yet he captured them however I have feeling the boys are going to bust the 4 of them out to go kill Cate and find out what Homelander is planning also probably infecting them with the virus but also giving the antidote so they can be asymptomatic carriers and be used to wipe out the army before it even forms
Cate’s transformation after her reunion with Indira makes no sense. Feels like a scene is missing.
There won't be an X-Men series for over a decade now haha, this series is everything I wanted from an X-Men film/series.. I can't wait for season 2, this was damn amazing.
This series is 10x better than anything the mcu would do with Xmen
So you would prefer wolverine to be a villain?
@@xrzezero in what way?
@@traviscue2099 i mean in gen v the old supes almost all bad so that means the likes of wolverine would be a villain if x men is made like this, it was a joke tho I am sorry
@@xrzezero Ohhh, I get you. Well Logan already had a Shady past.. But the further we go into The Boys/Gen V we see that its much deeper than hero/villian.. So a more Darker version of Logan/Wolverine would be great for me haha Its why the Logan film was the best piece of X-Men work imo
Yall coming in clutch with these breakdowns🥲
@6:08 I don’t believe that was the fire supe from earlier because her name was Betsy and they confirmed Betsy died due to the virus.
It’s very ironic because if the audience viewed this series from the perspective of the supers confined and “aggressively” experimented on, many would be less horrified with the brutal revenge they enact when released. I was surprised with Sam & Cate being promoted by Vought as heroes in the end.
Literally checked CZcams right after I watched it!!! Now waiting for Loki episode 5 break down
Sam taking over the black noir role is a cool idea but idk if he'd work for that given his mental state. Ik the og noir wasn't exactly 100% in that department but i feel like sam is too uncontrollable for them to work with.
They don’t have to worry too much about backlash from the humans now
Cate can control him, maybe make him less crazy just like she made him not feel anything
With him being so crazy, he does fit in more with how the comic's black noir was after being replaced, though.
@@Psycho18710they do if they want to succeed in the long term.
He doesn’t feel anything anymore and homelander will love that
That ending was not what I was expecting, The Boys season 4 is about to be crazy
For some reason the ending with them in a cell doesn’t seem satisfying. The problem with the boys is that the protagonists always end up in a hopeless situation.
The problem is each episode is limited to 30 damn minutes. Which I assume is bc they can't do too much big picture wise without cutting into what they're doing with the boys season 4
It’s because they are supposed to be 2 seasons, that wasn’t the complete ending and thats kind of the point, the boys is more realistic approach to this super hero stuff
Its actually the best way to do Season 4 of the boys. Keep them locked away and keep Cate and Sam out of the eyes of the public. Keeps both series kind of seperate until they need to be joined up.. I assume the 4 will break out, but they just need to keep them locked away until it works with the story.. Since there's no school anymore.
Bro it's not star wars
Marie’s powers are crazy. She tracked Maverick by detecting his heartbeat. That’s some God tier shit.
Gen v is such a great series and nice video man :]
Finally got to finish this last night and really enjoyed it! Hoping Season four of The Boys comes sooner over later.
One of the things this show and the Boys showcases is concept that the powers have costs! Marvel is quick to show only the hero powers. Seeing that there is a price to the use of powers, ups the scale and greatly adds meaning to the actions taken!
This show definitely went above and beyond my expectations. Can't wait for S2!
17:58 all "head off" to lol 😂🤣
Loved this show and your breakdowns. Can’t wait for The Boys season 4
Thank you, hyped for it too and hope to see you back
There’s a door above them at 16:41, they might be underground ?
I have a different theory. Cate was starting to unlock her powers completely since she’s been off of the meds. I think when Marie blew her arm off Cate was able to push without touching someone and that’s why suddenly Cate and Sam are considered heroes. Maybe Cate pushed Homelander. Just a random theory.
Good theory! She might’ve gaslighted everyone.
For what it's worth, I don't think Homelander needed to be pushed to do what he did...
It fits with Homelander views on everyone
Honestly that’s a cool theory but I think it’s more along the lines of homelander wanting to find out who started the killing of the humans and made those people the heros since he also wants to get rid of the humans thus to him those two were the ACTUAL guardians of the supe kids aka the guardians of Gadulkin
i don’t think she would need to do any of that for homelander to do what he did…
I like how Anthony Starr's hair was shorter/different in the close-up of him watching the news. I guess that was filmed at a different time (when he made that last film he was in?)
Why are people playing down Marie surviving the blast from homelander? Yeah she’s able to cut her own skin, but who’s to say it’s not a conscious choice to purposely make her palms less protected? She’s able to tank hits from other supes with no visible marks. If anyone has played the Halo series of games, it’s like how the Covenant ship shields are pretty much indestructible but if the ship wants to fire it’s weapons it has to temporarily lower the shields so the blast isn’t contained inside the shields protection
Ive just literally finished the season finale, it was good, but i hope its not too long of a wait for season 2.
It’s gonna be a typical long wait.
it will be 2025 and boys season 4 wont be till towards july/august next year PAIN
Probably 2 years for S2, Given the writer's strike is barely over, and the actors strike is still in discussion
@@jesusramirezromo2037the writers strike is over the actors strike is not
if sam turns out to be black noir it would make sense character wise but not timeline wise
Great show. Great Review.
How do you make and drop videos so quickly 😮
sam's thoughts at the start were mainly just screaming "she tortured us"
Why was it 39 minutes?!?
I feel like I’ve had the starter, but where the main dish?
Around halfway through the massacre, you can hear 'The Wilhelm Scream', that movie industry in-joke that's been a thing for years, where it's a recognisible sound clip of a guy doing a high pitched 'aaahh!'.
Butcher will definitely not unleash the virus because there is Ryan...unless Ryan dies then yes he will
If he deploys it will be done in desperation to defeat the coup part of me think Mallory may do it because a super coup is quite literally the worst thing that can happen
I think ryan will get killed and this pushes homelander compleatly over the edge in S4. He killed one guy after throwing a can at ryan... what happens if someone kills his child? Also, Homelander cant kill Butcher as long as Ryan is there. Ryan and butchers relationship might be broken but ryan still does not want him to die. So homelander cant kill him without loosing his son.
"Do you think they gonna believe a black girl and a bi-gender asian supe" lul
Can I just say how amazing this series is and how amazing the boys is. This is how u do a spin-off when I first saw Gen V announced I thought it was just gonna be a show that basically uses the boys name to get viewership and have nothing to do with the actual show but I love how they’ve tied these characters into the overarching story
Once you hear that sonic boom from Homelander everyone just stops. You can tell how intimidated everyone is of him.
This show was amazing. The Boys universe is so awesome and it's going to be an amazing ride.
All Andre need is the magneto helmet! He'll probably get it next season
Thanks Paul.
Enjoyed 🤓
I’m not a fan of Sam’s turn against Emma but I enjoyed everything else in the season!
I think Cate is locking Marie, Andre, Emma, and Jordan in her mind (or Jumanji), just like what she did in episode 6. That's why the room has no doors. And Marie may have her lower body cut off from her by Homelander's laser. She is merely alive.
What? The end of your statement was confusing
BINGO! I agree. If Vought had them locked up they’d be in separate cells.
If u look at 16:41 the room has a hatch so it is probably a vought facility but cool theory!!
I don't think she's that strong yet, especially after using her powers so much.
🤨🤨🤨 child what
You know one thing that has been stuck in my mind is in the first episode when they are at the bar Andre had a flirtatious stare with a dude hinting he was gay/bi so I thought it was a foreshadow that him and golden boy were hooking up but after that there wasn't anything indicating he was anything but straight. Anyone else catch that? IDK why it stuck out to me so much
I used to go to Redbridge open gymnastics with chance in Southampton really sound guy happy to see where he is today ❤️
Who's chance
