The scene set up deep's arc for the next few episodes where he gets high and his patton oswalt gills talk to him and he joins a cult. The implication is that this kind of thing happens a lot, like he knew where it was going when she makes him take the vest off. It's a fairly important narrative scene for a lot of reasons, and I don't think it's taken lightly, and it hints at a lot of stuff like supes feeling exploited by normal humans for being freaks, why deep likes his uncomplicated fish friends so much, how the fame that Vought manufactures can turn out, etc. Most of his scenes are comedy but that one really tells you the most about why he is the way he is. Again, the way it's portrayed this kind of thing has happened to him before so I don't think it's some kind of random bad thing happening to bad person.

I didnt like S2 especially much but the whale impale was incredible. I'd forgotten how much fun gore could be, I was way into dead alive and evil dead 2 back in the day.

Yes. I'll point out that people have mentioned maeve "sacrificing herself" but that's not really what happened, she and everyone else was dead if SB blew up the tower and as it worked out she did the opposite of sacrificing herself. She chose keeping everyone alive vs killing everyone so for me it was appropriate that she gets to live too despite how sketchy it was.

GreatGreen posted:I don't buy the idea that the explosion would have brought down the entire building and killed everybody in it. The explosion could just have been exactly as powerful as it needed to be. Powerful enough to de-supe Homelander and maybe char a few floors of the building or whatever, but exactly as weak as it needed to be to not literally topple it... or it could have toppled the building but the non-supes could have all somehow landed in perfectly hollowed out rubble in exactly the way they need to land in order to survive.

I do agree that homelander being disgustingly stronger than everyone was a core premise of the show and a lot of stuff from S1 (like Vogel calling him his greatest failure) gets undermined when he's just the strongest supe by a bit.

I thought the general thrust of MM's storyline was fine. He was presenting a lame sanitized version of himself to his daughter and it was bad for their relationship. He punches Todd but ofc the daughter he loves will forgive him. The OCD stuff was basically superfluous and as far as I could tell it was just a way to make the cum gag mean. Frenchie and Kimiko was definitely superfluous but at least we got dildos.

Naming her literally Stormfront was weird and imo a very bad idea. It's one of the only places that (I assume) would be proud of the association and is just not something you want to touch like that. You're just asking for your show to become a dogwhistle no matter what its content is.

His reaction when Stormfront would go on about him being aryan perfection communicated it pretty succinctly. No, but also yes close enough.

Mr. Funny Pants posted:No poo poo, we did Terminator and T2 a few weeks ago! He loved them both. Probably T2 better but that's no surprise, lots more eye candy. I got a great bonus watching T2 with him. At the beginning Sarah does that voice over saying that like before, they sent a Terminator and a protector, words to that effect. So we see Arnie time travel in. Then the T-1000 popped in and guess who hadn't been spoiled by dumb rear end marketing like when the movie came out? My son! He said out loud, "There's the protector." I almost did fist pumps. When we got to the mall scene and Arnie covered up John and fought the T-1000, my son let out a, "What the hell!?!" It was fantastic.
