I do love that they established that Vigilante is an absolute monster against average mooks. He's not just cosplaying. I hate how his leg armor doesn't match the rest of his costume.

Sentinel Red posted:Yeah, on the basis of his appearances before this, I just figured he was a very good shot but gently caress all use in an actual fight after Judomaster wiped the floor with him. But no, you really don't want to get on his bad side because he will gently caress you up effortlessly. I think it would have been better to show Vigilante beating up mooks in an earlier episode to a) establish he's a goof but also an actual hitter and b) establish what an actual martial arts beast Judomaster is when he first showed up. Seeing Vig handily beat the poo poo out of those inmates but then try to call time out on Judomaster and go home would have illustrated that Judomaster is a scary little gently caress. Also, go to Nhut Le's Instagram at your own risk. Absolute thirst trap.

Christ, I hope they don't kill off Vigilante. That would be a very Gunn thing to do.

The intro is a great metaphor for the world of the show. A bunch of tacky amateurs acting foolish in a completely earnest, po-faced manner. The eagle acting like it didn’t hit its mark right is the cherry on top.

Speaking of the credits, did anybody else notice that Dee Bradley Baker is the voice actor for Eagly? He's a legendary VO actor and it seems odd that they would bring him in just for squawking.

Takes No Damage posted:B... but we smoked weed together that one time I don’t adhere to the “Harcourt is a butterfly” theory, but if she is, maybe the butterfly just likes how getting drunk feels. The butterfly that picked up Peacemaker at the bar apparently just wanted to gently caress. That butterfly liked human orgasms so much it kept its vibrator out on the kitchen counter. When not “performing”, butterflies obviously still have personalities and preferences. Otherwise, why would Murn be watching sitcoms or be annoyed that his merc buddy knocked on the glass instead of the door?

It makes sense. Racism is mostly an emotional, fear based response. Psychopaths don't feel fear.

ashpanash posted:Yeah, it's to mirror Peacemaker's line about he wants peace and he doesn't care who he has to kill to achieve it. I hope his new better self slogan “I love peace and I don’t care how many men, women, and children I have to kick the poo poo out of to achieve it”

Mons Hubris posted:What is “throw your dog the invisible bone” supposed to mean? I guess it’s sexual but what an odd turn of phrase. I think it's a reference to chasing something that doesn't exist or is unobtainable. The whole song is about what you're willing to do or give up to achieve fame. ie: faking your dog out when you make the throwing motion during fetch but don't throw anything.

No complaints about the show, but I would really like an in-universe explanation why Auggie, a trailer trash white supremacist, can gently caress with super science. Seriously, in a 40 year span he went from an impoverished hick making money on child bare knuckle boxing in a trailer park to being able to install a pocket dimension lab in his house and build super suits. Did he make Faustian pact with a Nazi demon? Smoke radioactive meth? Inquiring minds want to know.

Jaxyon posted:That's why Peacemaker works. Because it has you legit feel bad for Cena's character and makes a CG eagle hug actually have emotional impact. Eagly has hugged Peacemaker more than his father ever did.

If Auggie had only a single item of super science, like a zap sceptre or glun gun, I would just hand wave it for comic book rules. A villain needs a gimmick and there's a tradition in comics of C-List villains of having ingenuity to invent a single tool/weapon to support that gimmick. Captain Boomerang type poo poo. Except, Auggie is a legitimate super scientist. A technobabble wizard, as I like to call them. He can construct a pocket dimension to keep his superscience workshop in. The super suit, the various gimmick Peacemaker helmets...something had to have happened to Auggie inbetween the kiddie boxing match and the show to give him that ability. I hope it is an element of Season 2.

Thundercracker posted:My speculation on how Peacemaker will get out of being the most wanted man in America is that the final mission will go completely tits up and the existence of Butterflies will be fully revealed to the world much to the chagrin of Amanda Waller. Batman swoops in an saves the day at the last minute. The after credits scene is Peacemaker screaming "I'm not the only that could smell the poo poo on him, right?"

MokBa posted:Vigilante was palling around with Peacemaker before the latter went to prison so I think we can assume the character is in his late twenties at the youngest. He’s just a very enthusiastic sociopath who’s emotional and mental maturity are trapped in adolescence. Vig is a very particular type of sociopath. Killing people for the sake of expedience shows that he lacks the empathy required to value life. Conversely, we also see him go from suggesting to murder the veterinarians to be instantly concerned that they not be hurt by tying them up with tape. Vigilante doesn't value life, but he doesn't value or see the necessity for cruelty. That's a very important detail.

jabby posted:I love that Auggie can make jetpacks and energy gauntlets that can burn through steel, but he'd rather make a helmet that launches his son head-first at stuff because gently caress him. It's just so on-brand. I'm still not a 100% on Auggie being a self-made mad scientist. During the final battle with his son, Auggie was talking some crazy poo poo about Moloch and how he was going to sacrifice Chris to something before Vig leapt in. Now, he's a ghost.

Everyone posted:They've actually co-starred in three different things so far. Peacemaker, obviously, but also The Marine in 2006 and even in a 2010 episode of Psych. Cena has come a long way since The Marine. His dialogue was mostly “America!” “Beef!” “Fight!”
