    5:30am in Texas and I’m sitting here watching my favorite podcast eating fries. Life doesn’t get better than this.

    My thing with the “she was just a kid/you brought her” thing is that, they did NOT bring her to throw down with the first Sith Lord to appear in a thousand years LMAOOOO
    She was one of 15 Jedi who went to arrest one lightsaberless criminal, they had no reason to think they were bringing her into mortal combat

    I know they give Van shit about being the "old man" on the show, but his perspective is necessary. That Limp Bizkit Effect speech was getting good before it veered off direction and made perfect sense. You need an "old dude" to explain all these things to Charles and Jomi.

    Story time with Van should be a spinoff.

    I think The Acolyte would have been better as a binge drop.

    I think the twist of the show is that the Jedi are going to actually be the villains of the show

  • @derekrz2816
    @derekrz2816 Před 7 dny

    I think it makes sense that a Sith can take multiple Jedi because the Sith are more of a "survival of the fittest" setup. A master chooses the atrongest apprentice that they manipulate. The Jedi play a numbers game. They get all the kids, promote the strongest, and support all the rest as needed. So Sol was the All-Star, All-NBA player, Jecki was a top draft pick ready to contribute immediately, Yord was a first round bust, and everyone else were ver minimum players soaking up minutes (or sabers).

    I think season 4 of the boys is a set up season for the final season

  • @damiboo3640
    @damiboo3640 Před 7 dny

    A notable example of a Jedi who was wanted to and was going to kill someone unarmed was Mace and Palpatine. But even then, that's probably the only one. And Qimir apparently is a play on Qamar that means Moon in Arabic.

  • @vincentdawn9689
    @vincentdawn9689 Před 8 dny +3

    The Boys is, at this point, very clearly headed towards an ending similar to that of the comics. I think this season will end with a cliffhanger that shows Homelander leading a coup, then next season that will probably be resolved halfway through and the rest will be the fallout and final confrontation between the two key characters in the series who are not Homelander.

    Dope podcast only recently found you guys and I’m working my way through all the old episodes on Spotify. I think the new Superman suit is ugly as f*ck but the colours are perfect. I think he’ll be in a more classic looking suit by the end of the movie especially with characters like Mr Terrific in very comic accurate costumes. I think it’s Ulysses and not Ultraman in the set photos so we might see the solar flare ability make its big screen debut. Will you guys speak on MAWS season 2 when it’s all finished? And you did big blue dirty because his rogues gallery is top tier: Lex, Brainiac, Toyman, Mxyzptlk, Darkseid, Mongul, Atomic Skull, Metallo, Kryptonite man, Bizarro, Ultraman, Zod, Parasite, Livewire, Cyborg Superman, Silver Banshee etc. they may not be as well known to casual fans but in the context of the world it’s an A tier villain roster.

    have they always recorded together? Ive been listening on Spotify for awhile and always thought they were on zoom or something.

    • @RobTheWatcher
      @RobTheWatcher Před 7 dny +2

      Charles just moved to LA a couple of months ago, so I think that’s when they started to record in the same room.

    • @LaCheeserie
      @LaCheeserie Před 5 dny

      I think it started for the video versions. Pretty sure this and House of R were zoom or another not in person set up

    The Junior Mints have our secret phrase for CZcams comments.
    Can we get a midnight motto to drop in the comment sections?
    You can sprinkle it at different times each week, like an Easter egg we have to listen for, and maybe give one random listener a shout out each month?
    I want to see the MB and Ringerverse take over the internet, love the content everyone.

  • @Essu510
    @Essu510 Před 7 dny

    Y'all should change that back drop screen saver of Homelander to A-Train. Just do it and don't say anything. Don't even explain it. Just do it.

  • @godfr012
    @godfr012 Před 7 dny

    I think this Acolyte show picks up from here. The acolyte direction and acting isn't the greatest, but they answer all plot holes.
    Episode 4, Mae talks with Manny about wanting to quit this mission but being afraid of their master (Manny). How she was afraid to fight a Wookie Jedi master because it's IMPOSSIBLE to kill him without a weapon. Then, she sees a way out. Self preservation, not a change of heart.
    This episode she didn't turn her self in and took her sister's place.... Self preservation. She hasn't gotten better as a person.
    Sol will figure out it's Mae soon, or she'll stay quiet and leave for self preservation. He has to actively try to read minds, he doesn't just always do it without trying

    To compare this show to Mando season 2 is wild lmao & I'm sorry but Ashoka's Shadow Warrior alone kills this whole series lol.

    The cortosis is an EU thing. But the character motivations were muddy in this one. Cool SW porn though

    Van is right. Someone offers them boys 10k to show hole they're all folding. At least steve was being at least realistic.

    Shaving or waxing butt hole makes it feel like you poop a little when you fart. And shaved butt cheeks itch like mad

    *I think the show may be spinning it's wheels* 🛞 Mannnn. Thank God only one more season. That is the realest quote. The first three episodes were 🔥. These last two feel anticlimactic, man.

    I am disappointing the amount of snitching these men would do in these fantasy sci-fi movies. Very disappointed.

  • @Tprez99
    @Tprez99 Před 7 dny

    As much as yall kill Chuck for being chronically critical, Jomi is the exact reverse! Bro likes/makes excuses for everything. 😂 it’s ok to have some criticisms every now and then.

  • @MrNathansdad
    @MrNathansdad Před 8 dny +1

    Guys are really funny, but someone needs to start fining young Charles every time he uses the word "real" 🙄

  • @Rinzler_Lives
    @Rinzler_Lives Před 4 dny +1

    Fans hate the Acolyte bc it’s a trash show, NOT bc they’re racists. If fans are racist, why didn’t they review Black Panther? Why aren’t they review bombing House of the Dragon? When HotD has 2 female leads, one of them is NON-binary, it has black characters and gay characters.. why aren’t fans review bombing that? 🤔 make it make sense
