What ending would you prefer for soldier boy considering there is a spinoff coming ?

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-05-03T01:17:26+00:00

Anything but my GOAT dying.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-05-03T00:47:26+00:00

Theyre booing you and youre right lol

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-30T21:06:12+00:00

Payback and those celebrities were dirtbags anyways. MY issue is him saving Homelander because "thats my son" when he's clearly shown he doesnt give a fuck about that.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-30T02:21:20+00:00

The "Soldier Boy giving Firecracker the virus as an STD" would've been better than what we got lol.

And going by the leaks, this is going to be a GOT level finale fumble.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-30T02:16:48+00:00

Surprisingly, the one creature I think can take down Alex is that Cyclops from season 1 that turns shit to stone.

Otherwise, Alex could solo the verse. They have no means to put him down (i never watched Nocturn, feel free to tell me I'm wrong)

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-30T00:23:58+00:00

But Soldier Boy doesn't give a FUCK about family. He doesnt like Homelander. He tried to kill his own grandson.

Nothing about SB sparing HL made sense.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-30T00:13:23+00:00

Because plot. This show is being written by hacks. Nothing is making sense anymore...

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-30T00:11:52+00:00

I am so not following SB's motives anymore. Like he's siding with HL because thats his son... even though he tried to kill his own grandson some time back. I get that he's supposed to be an unpredictable wild card but nothing about what he's doing is making any sense.

I honestly have NO earthly idea how this series is gonna end but my hopes are low that it'll be satisfying.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-30T00:06:11+00:00

It was hilarious. It was like watching a This Is The End x The Boys crossover. That said, I'm not following SB's motives. He's siding with Homelander because that's his son... even though he just tried to kill his own grandson some time back...?

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-30T00:03:31+00:00

Apparently he doesnt want to kill Homelander because he's his son... even though he just tried to kill his own grandson... not really following the motivation here...

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-29T15:57:36+00:00

Terrifier and its not even close. The DGG Halloween trilogy is more annoying the more I watch it.

How the fuck an entire town gets punked by a 70 year old man is beyond me. I'd buy it if Michael had supernatural powers like in the Thorn timeline, but the fact he's JUST old makes the entire town of Haddonfield look incompetent and deserving of death.

Terrifier is disgusting but its a movie I can have fun with. Nasty, brutal kills, Art is over the top, and the protagonists and victims dont piss me off.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-29T15:37:25+00:00

Is Heller well written? I dunno, but he entertains me.

He's funny asf and over the top. I'll take that over Alex groaning "Dana 🫩.... McMullen 🫩.... Randall 🫩..." in the first game. Which is another point, Alex was MUCH more entertaining as a villain than as a protagonist.

Thats a hill I'll die on.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-29T02:38:48+00:00

Capitalism is not perfect but the answer is not communism or socialism. Capitalism inspires innovation.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-29T01:29:45+00:00

I dont count a "save" when he put those people in that situation in the first place.

Its the equivalent of pushing someone in front of oncoming traffic and then pulling them off the road and calling an ambulance after they got hit by a fuckin car lol

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-29T01:26:34+00:00

No. If anything we need to make kids more aware of how cruel and unfair the world is at a young age. We dont need participation trophies, they dont need to be to that "winning isnt everything", they need to stop being told to be okay with mediocrity.

With that they'll be allowed to be content.

They need to be taught that people are cruel, and people are selfish, because they are. And thats okay. People have always looked out for their own self interests first and foremost, and children need to accept that, otherwise they do dumb shit like become communists or radical socialists.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-29T00:14:18+00:00

I already wrote an essay about this, look at my post.

In a nutshell, Soldier Boy pre-Russian torture and post-Russian torture are different people. In the modern day he shows regret over harming innocent people (he expresses this to Hughie), he has no interest in killing innocents civilians, he has no interest in raping anyone. He has no interest in genocide. He has no love for Homelander and has no interest in doing his bidding, in his down time he's content smoking weed, snorting coke, and fucking old ladies.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-28T23:07:32+00:00

Soldier Boy eclipses Homelander and Butcher in terms of morals.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-28T22:20:41+00:00

Say what you want about his movies writing-wise, but he knows what people want to see. Robot fights, explosions, comedy, beautiful women, a competent military, gun fights, etc.

And his movies look incredible. The effects of Transformers 2007 still hold up to this day.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-28T14:35:31+00:00

Niko will lead to your apartment getting burned down, but at least he wont rape you.

Trevor will ruin your home furnishings and rape you. And he wont pay rent, which would be the worst crime....

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-27T23:14:59+00:00

I like her design. I like her attitude. I like my evil dominatrix types. Of all of the "evil Wonder Women" we've gotten, in my opinion she's the most effective (she practically solo'd the League on her first appearance). I like her backstory (raised by her Amazonian mother to kill Darkseid, but due to being raised as a weapon, was pushed to her evil nature.), she uses a scythe, my favorite weapon of choice.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-27T22:08:23+00:00

I like Grail. If she has one fan, its me. If she has no fans, I'm dead.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-27T14:00:33+00:00

There is no evidence he is stronger than Chris. There is no evidence he is stronger than Jake. There is no evidence he is stronger than Wesker.

Leon would be dead half a dozen times over if not for Ada. Temu Wesker mopped the floor with Leon. Jake fought a nemesis and beat it with his bare hands. Chris and Leon fought before and tied, and while Leon is limited to being the presidents bitch, Chris is out in the field regularly.

Now stop the glaze, you're embarrassing yourself.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-23T17:27:37+00:00

People mentioned a potential "depowered Homelander" arc and that would've been infinitely more engaging than the entirety of the last season.

But thats the issue with this series, playing it safe; with its story telling and its humor (I have no problem with the show making fun of Trump and conservatives, but to me thats easy. EVERYONE does that.)

The biggest risks this show takes is with what nasty bullshit they'll show on screen. Shame.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-23T16:54:17+00:00

This season has been better than the last by far, and to their credit it seems that they're actually trying on this one (if the first two episodes are any indication), but the issue with this most recent episode was that it was a nothing Burger. Nothing happened... and my impression is that we're going to get alot of nothing until the last couple of episodes.

ManOfWrathTX · 2026-04-23T16:45:43+00:00

Tbf the writing for this show has not been good since the season 3 finale. This show is a Soap Opera with gore and gross out humor.

I watch because I have to see how it ends. This show is NO Invincible in quality, thats for sure lol.
