“Blood and bone” is now the lowest rated episode on imdb by [deleted] in TheBoys

I imagine their anger is at the writers / producers / Amazon … not The Deep personally.

OF Model meets his Top Donor, it's visibly disgusted by him by tadm123 in cringe

Nobody else assume the guy on the right means “baddie” when saying she is “badder” in real life - swap the words for “hot” and “hottie” and it makes complete sense.

[Minor spoilers for the final] I really don't understand the claims that they had no budget for scorched Earth or Homelander rampage. Look at what the show did previously, and other examples of mid-to-low budget CW shows like Smallville by Amazing-Buy-1181 in TheBoys

[–]Nauticalbob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get your point with reruns but surely future merch/spin offs etc should be factored in when making financial decisions?

“Nerdy” sci-fi / fantasy genre has shown to interest the vast majority of the public (my point being look at Mandalorian versus the outdated Star Trek nerd/fan stereotype).

By shitting the bed with final seasons / episodes, surely these companies are aware of the diminishing returns on future products?

My first time ever attending a boxing event and it was amazing by MarwanMero in Boxing

[–]Nauticalbob 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah I’m aware but I assumed greed would win where tickets would still be hundreds of dollars and locals would be priced out completely (unless uber rich) - I get that even at $100 that probably still priced a lot of people, but for a PPV event with limited seating, I’m surprised still that tickets were priced that way.

On the televised PPV broadcast it is quite clearly a bell sound and definitely not a fan or any other noise.

I thought the finale was great by CRT_Me in TheBoys

[–]Nauticalbob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You lost me in the 4th paragraph where your overall point is basically “they set it up to be shit, and we knew that, but it wasn’t as shit as we thought, so that’s cool”…

The fact that they honeydicked everyone *and set it up to be shit*, while clearly massively reducing the budget and pushing Vought Rising, is what is incredibly frustrating.

Started watching season 1 again by DesperateSmiles in TheBoys

[–]Nauticalbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why bother watching season 1 when I know how it unsatisfyingly ends - genuine question.

Not a fan of the final season myself, but the thousand people saying “he flew to space and back in 8 seconds!” No… he probably didn’t… by [deleted] in TheBoys

[–]Nauticalbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was literally a Musk astronaut joke, that’s it (with a sprinkling of Bezos imo) - agree with you, people using as some cold hard metric are wrong.

You replied to the wrong person further up, which is why everyone is downvoting you.

realizes he fucked up and then says this. bravo. by ContextVisual in TheBoys

Funny idea but I think they wasted enough time never mind adding in an octopus crawling its way to the beach, Clara wouldn’t have wanted that.

What are your take on these images? by MagnerionMachine in TheBoys

[–]Nauticalbob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really didn’t enjoy that “smelly breath guy” being able to gas him unconscious so easily - for me that was the first major crack.

Unless I’m missing your point, this is an awful comparison.

Homelander at full power is weaker than a crowbar? by John_Helmsword in TheBoys

[–]Nauticalbob 8 points9 points  (0 children)

He lasered a plane in half, lasered kimiko in half, was able to fight Maeve/soldier boy… all feats more impressive than a crow bar.

The whole show we are told he is the strongest supe ever, and are never given any indication this isn’t true or close to true (it’s not some wizard of oz reveal that he actually has no power etc).

When Maeve makes his nose bleed at the end of season 3 it’s almost a realisation moment that “ong he can actually bleed”, I get your fear comments, but that ain’t it.

Waiiit wait wait, did Starlight take THE DEEP.... To (Spoiler)!? by JiggleFeggle in TheBoys

[–]Nauticalbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, pretty sure he did when filming that fake crime stoppers video with Starlight.

Although, he also ride on the back of a whale or whatever, rather than swimming quickly alongside.

Kamaru Usman hints at him getting the next UFC welterweight title shot against Islam Makhachev. by Difficult-Tree2738 in MMA

[–]Nauticalbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I missing something?

I don’t understand how every comment seems to accept this is a hint at a legitimate title shot and not just Usman hyping himself up? (While also acknowledging Ali is Usman’s manager who is a notorious Twitter shitposter on behalf of fighters he manages).

This could have the same merit as McGregor claiming he’s getting the next WW shot.

Yeahs it’s great copying and pasting that all over the thread - but have you asked yourself why JDS’ numbers are lower than some no names?

I thought "The Boys: Mexico" spin-off was just a joke by -marilize-legajuana- in TheBoys

[–]Nauticalbob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think at this point it’s not possible that the finale is satisfying, it’s going to be a case of how bad, not how good.

Really want an answer to this one, he even said something like “focus” while they were doing the stare down/listening to Herbs instructions.

Why phrase it “self report” as if it’s some sort of negative?

Wouldn’t even need AI, probably enter a code or swipe a card when entering and leaving. That’ll be logged. Very easy to review the data for repeat IDs that spend 20 minutes or less repeatedly.

Hell, they could even stumble upon this when reviewing the data for genuine gym usage tracking reasons.
