I'm trying to remember what the common elements would be between the two (saw Civil War a long time ago). Can you elaborate?
I guess they were done in different ways, but trying to put a super hero world into the real world concept. In Marvel, they had to abide by the UN rules (or whatever the details were). In The Boys, it was the super heroes being run by a corporation.
Both are from comic books that are over 10 years old, so which ever comic book came out first would be the one that was ripped off.
They gave us enough to get excited I guess, but no idea what's going on.
Uhh you speak of her like she's a nobody.I'm still bummed the older, hot lady boss won't be back.
Ditto.
Middle 2020. No official date yetUhh you speak of her like she's a nobody.
Elisabeth Shue. Come a long way since Karate Kid. That's for sure.
Just finished S1 and really liked it. Big fan of Karl Urban. Can't wait for S2. Anyone know when it's supposed to drop in 2020?
Seemed like they went out of their way to focus on the eye scar on Anthony Starr / Homelander.
It seems like either a budget issue or a deliberate attempt to make everyone more real. Either way it was pretty bold of the older actresses to appear so aged.
Been awhile since I watched it but I don't remember Osment in the show. Kid from Sixth Sense right?
Even though I binge-watched the whole 1st season, I still feel like I know very little about this world, so I'm completely guessing here; her 'place' seems more behind the scenes, i.e., logistics, intel, weapons, etc., so I would guess that she falls into Vaught's clutches and either joins them (the whole 'woman scorned' trope) or they keep her in some sort of black site, where she's alternatively tortured for information and/or used as bait to lure Frenchie out of hiding. On a more out-there note, maybe if Vaught captures her, they give to Homelander and he puts a baby into her--a little psychological warfare with Frenchie like what he accidentally did with Billy Butcher...? This is a messed-up show, so I could definitely see this option on the table.
I doubt Stillwell would have brought in Stormfront, and given what I read about Stormfront's ability, I wonder how 'official' her addition to the Seven really was. From the trailers featuring her, it's clear she's putting Homelander on edge, and since he's supposedly Vought's most valuable commodity, it makes no sense for them to bring in someone who ruffles his feathers.
I've watched season 1 start to finish about 4 times now and have had that same experience every time, plus things you've seen but didn't pay much attention to finally sink in. For me, it wasn't until about the 3rd time through I made the connection with Starlight and frequent visits to the toilet to vomit. Still not quite sure that she's really bulimic, and they don't really draw a lot of attention to it, but something's definitely going on with her. My wild guess is that her body is trying to reject the Compound V.
Interesting - I think there was a line in one of the first episodes where she said that her mother putting her in pageants made her bulimic but she was past that - now I will have to rewatch a third time and I'm only on episode 4 of my 2nd viewing
Now I have to re-watch again, because I completely missed her saying anything about that to her mother. The first time I remember it being mentioned was when the video of her beating up the guys who were about to rape the girl that was with them comes out, Starlight's handler reads one of the comments about her, and it includes the line "I knew her in high school. She was bulimic."
Yeah, I don’t ever recall thinking the toilet trips were anything more than exactly what you said. Never thought she was trying to stay thin or compound V was wearing off.
Isn't that the point? I mean, she's one of the few apparently virtuous, but maybe nobody is supposed to be truly virtuous.
I'd guess that V has something addictive in it, based on the way Popclaw talked about it to A-Train, and we also see that in the way his behavior changed when we knew he was on it and the way Popclaw acted when she was on it. Maybe they don't necessarily need to keep taking it to maintain their abilities, but judging by how it enhanced A-Train's speed, it appears that it will continue enhancing but at a horrible price.
Yeah, and other "people" (who I assume were younger) were becoming faster than A-Train. I think he felt pressure to stay the fastest man on earth.
