When Stormfront is speaking German, it's actually pretty good, but with strong accents. She's saying: "Do you remember that day, Frederick, Cloe put her arms out the car window. We found the perfect spot by the river in the shade of an apple tree. It was the first time Cloe ate fresh apples."
never unseeing that first 15 mins...
It was everything they said it would be and then some! Supreme spectacle with otherworldly intensity. Fan first was an experience I’ll never forget. A film for the ages. Long live the fighters!
They completely nailed the look, feel and vibe of the games and it's fucking amazing.

The only thing I didn't like about this episode was that Bill died, meaning we didn't get to see him interact with Ellie, which was a wonderful part of the original game.
Aside from that, this episode is near faultless. It's the most original thing the show has done so far, by taking a side character from the game and fleshing out his backstory. It's deep, it's emotional, and it's a joy to watch.
Anyone complaining about wokeness and forced LGBT content has no clue what they're talking about. Bill and Frank were always a couple, even in the game. It's just that we didn't meet Frank in the game because he was already gone. Literally the only part of any of this episode that is not faithful to the source material is the fact that Bill died before Joel and Ellie got there.

I loved the early seasons of One Piece. But recently each episode seem to be like 10 minutes long. Most anime tend to have the opening 90 seconds long, but One Piece opening is 2:30 minutes, then follow by a dialog flash back that's 2-3 minutes. One episode I timed that it didn't start until the 5:25 minute mark. Then fights last multiple episode just like Dragonball. It seem they used every trick they can to stretch the show out and provide the least amount of contents.
I'm always amazed that the anti woke people don't realise The Boys is making fun of them
holy.......................... this was me for 60 minutes: "wtf? WTF!"
The last 10 minutes of this episode is probably one of the most powerful endings I've ever seen! Gave me goosebumps!
The writing of the first act alone and the confusion over the protagonist was magnificent to me. I had an absolute blast in the theater with this one.
F*cking Walter.... drunk my ass. It has his ego talking and yup, trouble again.
Absolutely incredible what they were able to deliver from a technical perspective. I just wish it was a little brighter, it was so dark that it was hard to see everything. A ton of great moments.
This singular episode, which I initially didn’t think I would like in the beginning, became more incredible than entire movies. It was beautiful, poetic and entirely self encapsulated in a tiny little world where people can still pick out their little slice of happiness.
To all those who hated the episode, replace bill with a female in your head if you have to, but open your eyes to why this story was so fulfilling and poetic in a world filled with meaningless death and endless suffering.
I.F.T. - after watching the episode, I now know what this means. LOL.
Having past events pressure down on Homelander, to his increasingly strained psyche, makes for the strongest start of a season yet. Starr's terrifyingly cracked performance over the course of these two episodes is something else.
It was a nice touch having Ashley Johnson (the voice of Ellie in the games) playing her Mother.
Stormfront is all about female empowerment but also a sadistic racist? Damn. This show really isn't afraid of anything and I love it xD Can't wait for the moment she gets killed by Kimiko.
fcking Walter. I'll miss Mike, Walter is really getting into my nerves, he really didn't need to kill Mike. He already manipulated everyone it seems as if he's just going to kill everyone else in the show...
I'm seeing a lot of hate towards Skyler here and I just want to know: what exactly would you have done differently in her situation?
If the IRS begins a serious investigation about Ted, it wouldn't take them long to find out that the woman who cooked his books is now running a business that she bought with undeclared money. If Ted goes down, everybody else goes down with him. Skyler didn't ask to be in the situation she's in, and yet, she's the only person that is actually thinking about the consequences of Ted and Walt's actions in the long term and trying to save both their asses in the process.
Lydia got more fleshed-out character background in one episode than other people who have been in this show for several seasons.
(Yes, I'm looking at you, Rosita.)
Carol's favorite game is Assassin's Creed
When the main musical coda kicked in at the end I got goosebumps. Also, fuck Todd. And the Neo-Nazis. That shit isn't cool.
Jesse at that dinner.. his reactions are completely awesome :'D
If you still hate Skyler and love Walter after this episode... I don't know what to say to you.
Best. Paperboy. EVER. I would love to wake up to a stack of money on my front porch.
That was interesting but not the ending I was looking for. I would have liked more hero vs hero action. It was a strange game played between Madelyn and Homelander. We needed more Black Noir. and less Fishman.

"I never would have given you to them. Not for anything. Don't cry. You're perfect."
This episode has some incredible quotes.
