Yes.
Source: All I know about this film is this tweet

it's a cheap observation but he's right
ever since alan moore decided to shove his fetishes into swamp thing, people have been asking "but what if superheroes were REAALLL"
this new take on it doesnt impress me

>film

Yes, it is literally an adaptation of a comic about people with superpowers who wear capes and it's fucking shit. Capeshit.

He's right about nearly everything, and this isn't an exception.

This nigga doesn't even have a checkmark.
Who cares?

>image of some tweet
>"is he right?" "he's not wrong." "where's the lie?" "he's got a point." "prove him wrong."

Watchmen still takes itself seriously, thereby validating the narrative of capeshit as mature art. The Boys may be capeshit, but it's a complete farce that shits all over the idea of capeshit as mature or socially important, because at the end of the day capeshit is for children.

Haha what a faggot didnt even watch a single episode

Yes

Big Mike Shekelovic is a wise man.
He's right.

the show is better than the comic IMO. I binged it within a few days. It's pretty bad. Does some cool shit, but most of it is juvenile as fuck and tries too hard to be edgy.

why do people go to Yea Forums, learn our insults, then leave Yea Forums and use them outside here?
just god damn keep things separate, fucks sake

>critiquing X is still X
what a shit argument

Yes.

Look at the final episode of season 1, they show Stella using her prower, and it's shown in a glorious way.

The guys who made the show didn't understand the original comic.

I always assumed capeshit meant stuff like the Marvel or DC shit with zero character depth beyond good guy good and bad guy bad. Zero tension, zero ambiguous morality. The Boys is a super hero show, yes. Is it capeshit though?

>critiquing X is still X
He isn't saying that's necessarily the case, but that does actually happens a lot.

Capeshit:
A shallow cynical product where the main plot or conflict revolves around super powers. Usually woke and "safe". Aimed at main children and tranny tumblers.

The boys:
A well written kino piece where the main plot and conflict is Hughie and Butchers revenge on Supes for being degenerate corporate cunts. Not woke or safe. Aimed at adults and people who like having their ass eaten.

The comic was terrible. This is definitely a case of the adaptation outdoing the source material.

the show is vastly superior to the dumb fucking comics, they come off as written by an edgy 13 year old

>critiquing X is still X
He isn't saying that's necessarily the case, but tbf that does actually happen a lot.

seriously what isn't capeshit though
I can make an argument that game of thrones is basically capeshit

Dude, if you think "critiquing" capeshit is a big deal, guess what? Avengers and Deadpool have been doing that for 10 years and they're capeshit nonetheless. It's nothing new, it's just a new strategy for movie companies to keep the bugmen manchildren addicted to product, by throwing in: "Hey, we're hip, we know that the concept of Superheroes is silly, now keep consuming goy."

The show focuses mainly on normal humans though, the superheroes are the bad guys except for Starlight and the inexplicably whitewashed Queen Maeve (went from plowing through hundreds of innocents in the comics to crying over two people in the show).

The Believe Expo episode was exactly that. Pretend redpills that are completely uncontroversial and hamfisted.

I can hate capeshit, like The Boys and still consider it capeshit because fuck you!

Hughie and The Deep are relentlessly handsome. I want to kiss them relentlessly.

>DSA
>capeshit
Yikes

you some kind of homosexual?

The Believe Expo episode was pretty tone-downed from the comics, and it's not really a pretend redpill in either case. More like a pretend bluepill. The hardline christian conservative ultranationalists are still the bad guys, but instead of Homelander casually murdering a family of four after delivering a fedora-tipper god speech, you get some vague references to gay marriage and a heroic christian character telling edgy atheist Butcher to shut up.

Whatever, Mike

She literally says she believes in God but thinks the church is full of shit. Which is true.

Grow a brain

It's more of an attack on the MCU/Disney by Amazon. It's not trying to deconstruct the whole idea of superheroes, that's what Watchmen was doing. The Boys, at least the tv show, is just taking shots at Marvel's sanitized superhero movies. Hell there's literally a scene where they talk about the "Vought Cinematic Universe".

>grandson of holocaust survivors
>is a brainlet
Checks out desu

It's amazing how so many people in the media are the grandchildren of Holocaust survivors. What are the odds?

Any subject can be good if it is done right. And making absolute statements about something you don't know about takes away your credibility on the subject. He could just say he doesn't want anymore superhero shit of any kind and that would be fine.

This is such a cope. You're trying so hard to get away with being a bugman by saying you're self-aware. You still watched tens of hours of capeshit.

Yeah it's easy to claim to have been involved in a made up fictional event that never happened but should've

>You still watched tens of hours of capeshit.
Yes, because I found it entertaining. Keep letting strangers on the internet make up your mind for you.

You're the one to speak, your whole existence has been programmed since birth by corporate entities.

Comparing works such as that of Moore's and respectively something like The Boys to regular capeshit is a mistake. Not every story featuring a superhero or other "powered" individual is the same, just like Logan isn't the same to something like Homecoming. By putting all of that under the same umbrella, it just means don't have a grasp of what you're talking about.
You can take a Shakespeare play and turn one of the characters into a capeshit hero for shits and giggles, and it'd still be a Shakespeare play (not to say that I'm comparing the two directly, but hopefully you get the idea). A story is a story, and if it's good, mature and thought provoking, the characters or setting make little difference.

it's incredible how many survived the holocaust

I don't know about all that. Let's just agree Pepsi makes a quality product and call it a day.

he's only right in verbiage. ask yourself, would marvel make a new capeshit film where women are pressured into oral sex and the heroes murder innocent people for shits and giggles, no they would never even dream of it. it's capeshit, sure, but 100% different than MCU capeshit and not even comparable.

No it's not, because it's not about creating false idols for people to worship and adore, which is what perpetuates the nonsense of capeshit.

It's especially amazing how many survivors ended up in the upper class in New York, Los Angeles, and London.

You've been programmed too, to an extent where you're unable to weed out the pros of said entities and only consider the cons as a possibility.
You're getting fucked by the corporate entites if you're viewing Andrei Rublev too, chump. It's all a product. Doesn't mean every product is out to brainwash you.

>if you think "critiquing" capeshit is a big deal,
Nobody's saying it's a big deal, big dummy. But it's categorically not the same.

You were still married to a Jew and still have a black step brother Mike. Criticizing or critiquing Jews and blacks doesn't change that.

>hey guys, look, some nobody wrote this on twitter
Who gives a shit.

>People say it's not memeword, but it actually is memeword!
I don't understand why this matters at all, how does it affect anything?

Just because it's deconstructing capeshit doesn't make it not capeshit. You're still watching men in capes hit each other, except they do it in more gritty and edgy ways which makes your manchild bugman brain think you're an adult for a moment.

You haven't browsed Yea Forums much lately, have you?

Are you really comparing The Boys to Andrei Rublev? Also the latter was literally made in a communist country.

The point is that you're a bugman.

>incredible
some might say unbelievable.

It's all a product. Replace Andrei Rublev with any film that you consider high-art or "kino". It's secondary purpose is to make money.
Conclusion: you're getting played by the corporations whether you like it or not.

The proper way to critique it is by having two guys in a restaurant talking about how retarded comic books are, and then the waiter joins in to agree. The manager shows up, wondering what's going on, and when he hears their conversation also joins in. Same with the owner. This goes on for about an hour and 45 minutes.

Do you have autism?

Top tier posting. What are you talking about, Willis?

No. Fuck you. You're stupid. And for the record I thought the Boys was mediocre. Most capeshit that's been produced has been mediocre or bad. But that doesn't negate that fact that the setting alone doesn't pull away from any potentially good storytelling.
You can make a movie about a sentient desk and it can still be good.

You can critique it without using it, you know.

It is, the ancient greeks uses it to lure children to their pedo orgies.

She called the bible subjective and outdated, if you're a real christian you shouldn't think that.

>I LEARNED IT FROM YOU, SON

Replace Greek mythology with any kind of Hero's journey cliche, doesn't matter. People were coming up with these scenarios back in the stone age. The strive do to/be something more than you are, sometimes to a supernatural extent, is a fundamental part of the human psyche.

I thought "capeshit" was just a term for stories with superheroes

Why does it even matter whether or not it's capeshit?

Easy with the edge user, you'd give Garth Ennis a run for his money.

Being self-aware and ironically doing all the capeshit tropes isn't good writing. Deadpool, Avengers and One-Punch Man (for shonen) already did it, just to name a few. It's just a new way to appeal to bugmen that are incapable of sincerity and have to view everything through the lens of ironic detachment.

Jay and Rich literally endorse it, are you fags still trying to argue against it?

So make a good, HONEST, non-subverted, non-meta story with capeshit as the setting then. But the problem is you'd still call it a bugman thing simply because it is capeshit. So really, you're no different than the people you describe. Deluded.

These are arguments i would have in middle school, who gives a fuck if a piece of media fits a certain label

So? I like capeshit. I like seeing different takes. Its why I liked Watchmen, the DCEU, Worm. Now I get to see capeshit but a mashup of Hollywood and the military industrial complex. Why do you guys care so much? If you enjoy it, enjoy it. You don't have to justify it to anyone. If not...I mean you must have something that you enjoy that you can talk about.

Right?

I hate capeshit. Age of Ultron was the last superhero movie I watched. I was pretty sure I’d hate The Boys, but binged it in a couple days and really enjoyed it. It’s obviously capeshit for people who hate capeshit. It’s not Citizen Kane but they did a good job taking the piss out of Marvel and DC.

I bet you think Jeffrey Epstein was a case of "white male priveilege" too lmao you fucking retard.

Should’ve left here too desu

lol i'm in that exact same group too for lurk purposes. it's wild how hard they try to imitate the "kino culture" but end up being super cringy and pretentious.

Except The Boys, Watchmen or whatever doesn't abide by the Hero's Journey.
Super hero culture were originally made for young teenage boy, like cheap pulp novel before them, it's only recently that it have been pushed as mature and deep for a new generation of manchildren.

Super hero comic books are poorly made boy literature, comparing them to Greek mythology who often carried far more meaning and whose story were magnified by poets, is ludicrous.
Now we have under cultured nerds over analyzing pedantly block buster of men in spandex pretending it have the same depth and quality as classics.

The boys isn't written or shot like capeshit. it doesn't pretend to not be traditional capeshit only to end in an ebin teamup to fight a cgi orge or an evil clone of the protogonist.
