Like holy fucking shit, Butcher finally has Homelander depowered and begging in front of him. What does he say?
“This is for frenchie”
Dude fuck you what about your fucking dead wife? Your entire initial motivation for dedicating your life to a crusade against supes?
Oh, sorry, the writers forgot about that, at least until homelander mentions her name like halfway through the scene
You know what I’d have written? I’d have Butcher say “This is for Becca” punch “This is for Becca” punch punch punch “THIS IS FOR BECCA” PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH “SAY IT. FUCKING SAY IT, YOU removed. OI. SAY HER FUCKING NAME”
Homelander gurgles, weakly, struggling “B…becca…”
SMACK, BLOOD SPRAYING “NOW THAT’S THE LAST TIME YOU GET TO SAY IT”
and then he beats him to death
Like i dunno shit at least that would have some kind if impact other than this wet fart
Edit: the word filter was for the C word, love stuff like that when my partner’s current favorite song is by the Lambrini Girls and basically says it 10000 times
In the comics he only mention becca, but its because after homelander he has a evil arc where he turns on the boys because he wants to genocide all the supers and kills all the members but hughie
yeah I know! and I said in another comment that I think if they were gonna do this radiation blast shit to kill homelander, they should have just done that in season 3 and been done with him, season 4 and 5 dealing with Other Supes and then Butcher. It’d have just been… way better, imo, because, and I think the vast majority will agree, it just feels like we’ve all been jerked around and jerked off for an unsatisfying climax, with how they’ve done it
Oh yea pretty much nothing happens in season 3,4 and 5 except at the start and end of each.
i’m honestly not sure r/n if you’re being sarcastic or not (drinking
) but tbh that’s really what it felt like, honestly. Except for plans that went nowhere and a lot of sexual assault on hughie and others
I like the first 2 season and i find solder boy really funny but he is a nothing character just like sage, they dont do much even when they are supposed to be main antagonists of their seasons.
So all you are left with Homelander who i like his stuff and the deep who is a joke character as antagonists.
Maybe they should have gave the first 2 more stuff to do and have homelander in the backseat for a bit, maybe do the Russia arc with love sausage or something else because the 3 last season are very aimless for most of their runtimes
Also really sucks they decided to kill off GenV because it had potential
