To engage in crass dialogue for a bit, a simple change here would have pissed less people off.
Just have it be defiant dialogue.
“I’ll fucking suck your dick.” Changes to “Suck my fucking dick.”
“You want me to eat shit? I’ll eat your fucking shit.” Changes to “Eat my ass, you fucking shit-eater.”
The reliance on crudeness still kind of robs the scene of its weight in the end, but it’s more in line with how someone like Homelander would go out.
Course, it wouldn’t give Kripke his power fantasy of killing the orange man after rendering him pathetic, but that’s on him for being a terrible writer.

Eric Kripke says Antony Starr came up with Homelander's line about eating shit in 'The Boys' finale "I reached out to him before the script came out, and I said ... 'He goes out in the most pathetic way possible', And he was like, 'Of course. He has to. This is the end. He has to get a comeuppance that befits the horror that he’s been inflicting for the last seven years' So he totally understood it" "And as a matter of fact, he added the line 'I’ll eat your shit on live TV'" (via @RollingStone)

@AngelusCardano @NickNirmatAAA For certain movies yes it is a good thing. Why do you feel you need everything spoonfed to you?

@NickNirmatAAA You know that's not a good thing, right?

Every person who's watched this movie early says it doesn't explain a lot, which I think is PERFECT. The Backrooms should stay unexplained and mysterious. That's a huge part of what makes it so unnerving and scary.
Jonathan Sim@TheJonathanSim
#Backrooms is a fascinating experiment from Kane Parsons. Unnerving atmosphere with strong production and sound design. Leaves a little too much unanswered, and you don't care much for the characters. Some excellent found footage sequences. Vague, but interesting.

Nicolas Winding Refn has announced that his next movie will be a fresh take on 1980s slasher MANIAC COP for Mubi.
In the original movie from director William Lustig, a killer dressed in a police uniform begins murdering innocent people on the streets of NYC.
Expect it in 2027.

Funny how after Kimiko takes away Butchers powers he doesn’t immediately start dying
You know, because the end of last season showed he was only alive because he bonded with the parasite he got from taking the Compound V?
That would require good writing though

@HorrorPaperback @HorrorCalendar Well they didn't make this show. Sorry I get annoyed when people still get confused about the executive producer title. Same with "something very bad is going to happen". Should they stop putting their names so prominent? Of course.

The Duffer Brothers have learned from experience and neatly sidestepped the whole problem of the cast noticeably aging between seasons: they're already old.

From executive producers the Duffer Brothers, new series THE BOROUGHS is now streaming on Netflix.
A band of retirement community misfits must stop an otherworldly threat from stealing the one thing they don't have: time.

@warrie2021 Guys these blue check idiots just want attention so they can get paid.

The humiliation of the villain is a sign of sadism from the culture that savors it.
Homelander is truly a villain but he was used to pain and suffering and was filled with rage. He would not have begged and pleaded for life. The show's portrayal is utterly inconsistent with how people like him behave.
It's a sadistic fantasy that betrays the sadistic convictions of the writers. They sought to humiliate the villain, but Homelander isn't real and they are. Ironically, in the end, it is the showrunners themselves who end up being the show's true villains.

In The Boys finale, Homelander had to look powerless according to Eric Kripke “Yeah, it was really important to us for Homelander to at least experience a little bit of time powerless.” “People have asked me, ‘Well, why don’t you send him out in the world powerless, wouldn’t that be the ultimate punishment?’ “I’m like, it would, until he gets his hands on some more Compound V, and then you’re back to where you started.” “So, he cannot walk out of that room alive, but we can spend time with him powerless to really reveal what everyone’s been saying all season, which is, ‘Take away those powers and you are nothing.’ “And he’s so cowardly and blubbering and pathetic, as are most strong men when you remove their power and they’re and they’re faced with their imminent death, they rarely handle it bravely.”

@akumanooko___ I'm sorry man, are you legitimately slow? I'll feel bad if so, but being this bad at media comprehension can only be one thing.

Otra cosa, la escena es doblemente mierda porque te quieren vender que el mismo tipo que aguanto golpes de Queen Maeve sin inmutarse, que resistió uranio enriquecido y que soporto perforarse a si mismo con su láser, ahora no aguanta unos golpes sin llorar 🙃🫠
𝘼𝙖𝙧𝙤𝙣@akumanooko___
Esto me pareció una mierdota total, y odio con mi alma a estas obras que humillan a su villano al final solo porque "se lo merecía", acaso un villano no se merece un final digno solo por serlo? No es de ahuevo humillar a un villano solo para complacer al público

“People have asked me, ‘Well, why don’t you send him out in the world powerless, wouldn’t that be the ultimate punishment?’
“I’m like, it would, until he gets his hands on some more Compound V, and then you’re back to where you started.”
Genuinely how would he do that.

@ultrasarts09 @BattleCatMiki @Keyshawnnn_J04 @JamesNicholsJr @DJWarnerStage You are good 😂. I had to make the joke about not being able to read, it was just too perfect not to.
No I get it, I just don't think anyone should react that way because of an internet debate is all.
English
@deschain1994 @BattleCatMiki @Keyshawnnn_J04 @JamesNicholsJr @DJWarnerStage Omg that’s actually hilarious I got confused because of the profile pictures my apologies to you. I take back what I said. But I also hope the sentiment isn’t lost that is why he reacted that way because people consistently misunderstood him.
English
@ultrasarts09 @BattleCatMiki @Keyshawnnn_J04 @JamesNicholsJr @DJWarnerStage .....that isn't me dude? Funny you mention not being able to read 😂.
English
@deschain1994 @BattleCatMiki @Keyshawnnn_J04 @JamesNicholsJr @DJWarnerStage You literally brought up Homelander in a discussion about Ryan. People tend to get upset when people think they’re faking because they someone can’t even read.
English
@nate23297839 No I’m not stupid, but try asking your mum, she might be…Kek!

Homelander literally lasered Kimiko in half earlier this season and moved so fast he practically teleported to Frenchie. For someone who flies almost as fast as A-Train, nah, they nerfed him hard because what the fuck was that fight?
English
Why didn't kimiko just blast Starlight and blast herself and Butcher releases the supe virus?
English
@ultrasarts09 @BattleCatMiki @Keyshawnnn_J04 @JamesNicholsJr @DJWarnerStage I was doing nothing bro. I am simply saying dude really spazzed out there lol it was a little much. It isn't that deep or important in any way.
English
@deschain1994 @BattleCatMiki @Keyshawnnn_J04 @JamesNicholsJr @DJWarnerStage Yeah but yall were trying to hate on the guy by using a completely separate character and situation.
English
@BattleCatMiki @Keyshawnnn_J04 @JamesNicholsJr @DJWarnerStage Bro holy shit lol it isn't that serious. It's just a show.
English
@Keyshawnnn_J04 @JamesNicholsJr @DJWarnerStage Holy lack of reading skills, this tweet is about RYAN. YKNOW. THE NATURAL BORN SUPE.
Don't ever speak again when you know NOTHING about the argument you're even joining in on.
Who the fuck are you, like genuinely, who are you?

@Khadriel1 @PSSMKR Na he talks to fish throughout the show. But yea they are. They're his friends, he even has sex with them lol.
English
@deschain1994 @PSSMKR Yeah I thought the fish talking was part of all that. If it’s not that means fish are sentient and have a sense of self in the Boys universe.
English
@Khadriel1 @PSSMKR Dude.....yes he talks to his gills in the show but it's not reality. In the clip you sent it even says it's because he took shrooms. Come on man 😂.
English
@Khadriel1 @PSSMKR No his gills don't talk lol. He can talk to aquatic life. That's been known for the whole show. Also he didn't command them to kill him. They literally told him they'd kill him last episode if he went in the ocean.
English
@khaliltooshort @Wommandrs Did you want them to all pause and say "Oi my cancer is gone because it was bonded with the V mate." No wonder Netflix has a new rule they have to explain every plot detail multiple times throughout the show or movie 😂. For people like you.
English
@Wommandrs I mean yeah that could be a true. But I think the fact that the writers have completely forgotten about that is the problem
