Is there any way that the Amazon adaption won't turn out to be trash?

They deviate from the black noir reveal?

Considering the source material is shit, I doubt the adaptation will be any good either

Starlight's initiation was reportedly cut so no.

Really? It's meant to be shocking and set the tone of the Seven

>Seth Rogen
That's all you need to know.

Compared to what Marvel puts out these days, The Boys isn't that bad.

It's just a different kind of terrible

How so?

Yep. I've got a small bit of hope that they're saving it for a big reveal but the whole thing stinks of no balls. If they won't do the blow bang then what the fuck are they going to do with Teenage Kix? The Batman/Ironman guy? Jack from Jupiter? Will they even touch the G-Men shit?

Marvel is boring, safe schlock made to appeal to as wide an audience as possible
Ennis is edgy shit made to appeal to faggots who agree with his fun hating world view

it can't do worse than the source material.

Jack From Jupiter got cut entirely. His spot in The Seven is taken by a new character called Translucent.

I've mixed feelings on it. Apparently they changed a lot from the original comic, like for example the boys won't be infused with compound V and will be mostly using guns instead, or Jack from Jupiter is replaced with an invisible man knockoff, or Sitwell is now a woman and she makes a lot of public event appearances (which completely misses the point of Sitwell's character since a big part of the plot is that Butcher didn't know who he was). And there's no way they'll adapt some of the more fucked up parts like the G-Men or Herogasm. None of this fill me with too much hope about the show, really.
However some people at reddit (I know I know) said the pilot ep was solid and that they had kept the dark tone of the original comic. So maybe it ends up being better than I thought, despite all the plot changes and all. Who knows, maybe this show will deliver maybe not, either way I'll be pirating it day one since I'm a third world poorfag.

They already made Female cuter than the comic book feel, ofc it's gonna be trash
YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO FUCK THE FEMALE, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO FEEL SORRY FOR HER YOU DUMB SHITS

I’m happy with Karen Fukuhara getting more work since you know we won’t ever see her as Katana again.

I like Ennis but the comic was trash, so it can only go up from there. I'm happy Garth is getting some TV money but I won't watch this

The comic is a lot of fun in a “this would have been edgy fifteen year old me’s favorite thing ever” kind of way, why does Yea Forums seem to hate it?

Because Ennis is a leftie.

Because I'm not fifteen

no

The comic book parodies don't really work if you know what the parodies are of. The Boys wouldn't last 10 seconds against any of the heroes they're making fun of. Obviously that's not the point, but Yea Forums is full of "but acktually" nerds like that. The most egregious example being the xmen. The entire world's supply of bullets and bombs wouldn't be able to take down the canonical xmen.

I dont hate it but my issue with it is that the whole edgy shenanighans get old real fast. It could be a really good story if you cut a lot of the edgy stuff and parodies that end up just beating the audience in the head, we get it Ennis you kind of hate capes you dont have to repeat it a thousand times. There's a really good story beneath all this bullshit.

I also dont trust Rogen to be able to clean the story in fact I can bet money he will simply make the problems bigger and focus on the shock bullshit and dick jokes.

I would say that it's because the parodies are insanely lazy. Like compare 'Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood' and 'Epic Movie' both are parodies but one is shit. Typically he just makes stand ins for whoever he has a bone to pick with and amps up one aspect of them to 11 and then also says they are a rapist or a child molester on top of that before calling it a day.

they made the Deep white and A-Train black? Wut, Deep was probably the most redeemable member of the seven, you'd think they'd only whitewash a character to make him look like more of a hateable bastard

Redeemable is relative, he's culpable for a lot of crimes. But he gave good advice

I had a big crush on Dominique mcelligott when she was in Hell on Wheels. I’ll probably check this out and see how it is and hope seeing her moves my dick again.

I mean, it's possible that they diverge so significantly from the source that they manage to turn it into something besides garbage, but I'd doubt it

He also seemed low-key insane going by his response to being asked why he never takes his helmet off.

nah, that was just him being a good company man by keeping to marketing's bullshit.

I liked that aspect of him, he kept in character showing that he actually gave a shit about his job even on his off time

Starlight initiation rumor:

They make her snort cocaine instead and then suddenly it's time for her Seven mandated drug test, freaking her out thinking she'll be caught and her reputation will be ruined. This is why the trailer has her in the bathroom with a pee cup.
