@@TheCaptainnoU maybe but in the flshback it was clear SB didn’t get shut off directly, maybe SBs mind is already so fucked up that he can somewhat fend it off for a bit
That punch was a warning, we know how hard Soldier boy can hit, that was him being extremely restrained, just enough to put some sense back into Hughie, not to hurt him.
I haven't watched the show. Does Huey have some kind of damage reduction or healing power? Cuz even that punch would have killed a regular man a few times over.
Soldier Boy was the best part of this season. I really hope he doesn't get wasted. His character has so much potential to take the show forward. Also, I want to see him wreck the shit out of A-Train and the Deep.
I do think he comes back,that’s why he got frozen again and not killed. Also it’s Jensen ackles,who is best friends with the producers. They certainly won’t waste him
@@Hokum6he was similar to american psyco. People who liked him have some serious problems... But the character was very well made. U could see another homelander in him
@@hbt739 I think there's some deep current subtext from the writers, dunno if it's my imagination. SB does fucked up things, believes fucked up things, but still he has morality besides 'I am a God because no one can touch me'. I feel this is a commentary on the state of modern politics. politicians kinda used to suck, but they REALLY suck today.
I can’t believe they introduced an amazing character like soldier boy for 4 episodes and then just threw him in the basement for season 4, doesn’t feel the same without him
He was written as a ticking time bomb and that served as the finale/climax of S3. They couldn’t keep him, they’d have to revive him and what would cheapen and regress the story.
What I like about Soldier Boy is that even though he is a Grade-A asshole and nothing about his past justifies his behavior, you can see that his real life experiences make him more capable of realizing what a fucked-up and awful world he came from was and how terrible of a person he's been. He's not Homelander. When Soldier Boy killed people, it was in real fights. He saw real battles. He suffered real trauma. He underwent *real* abuse that wasn't covered up or handwaved away. (The way he was raised was socially accepted for his time period.) He was similarly "produced", but he wasn't manufactured. When he sees Homelander for the horrible, rotten creature that he is, he recognizes how bad things are. Sadly, because of his upbringing, his instincts are to begrudgingly admit that his father was right. At potentially the worst possible time too. But while that doesn't excuse any of his actions, you definitely don't blame him for trying. (And unfortunately coming to the wrong conclusions.)
he certainly is a product of his time. i think what makes him appealling is how brutallyself-aware he is. He's like butcher basically knows hes a monster but has come to terms with it and HATES ppl like homelander that deny what they are.
Homelander went through real abuse too. They pretty much did to Homelander what the Russians did to Soldier Boy (tortured him to see what he can handle). Except Homelander was a kid.
I like how solider boy is pretty much captain America but is more accurate to the real world. Him seeing a gay couple especially both black and white would have him confused
he was the best of the season, they have to bring him back, Jensen is such a good actor than even SB being an asshole, we all still wish a redemption arc for him
Yeah, it kinda hurt to see everyone fighting him at the end. He’s not a good person by any means but not nearly as terrible or a threat as everyone was making him out to be, especially Starlight and MM. Both of them were more concerned about taking down Soldier Boy than Homelander.
Well, hiring one of the most charismatic actors out there and then expecting viewers to hate him was a possible wrong move. And yeah, Mother's Milk calling him a racist piece of shit came out of nowhere. He didn't say a single racist thing whole season like the writers forgot to add that, so they had that line so we remember we are suppose to root for the boys. If he was racist would he hang out with Bill Cosby? Yeah, that has a different set of bad to it, but obviously not racism. Also, he kept his word to Butcher making him the only man of his words on the show.
@@blackwolf4766 why would they bring him back? he doesnt like homelander, and got in a fight with everyone from The Boys, there is no reason they would wake him up next season after the big fight that just happened at the end of season 3
my favorite scene from the boys is when homelander finds billy butcher and says "it looks like the home has landed", then butcher replies "you think you're untouchable, homelander, but I will butcher you" I get chills every time
@@HelloWorld-ti2zp I think you're assuming that he would be an average guy from that time period. Steve Rogers grew up in NYC as a poor, very sick kid at the height of eugenics being the popular thing. His views on people who were viewed as "inferior" might not be what you think. And at least in some versions of his story, he says that he doesn't hate or want to go off members of the predominant German political group at the time, and that he just didn't like bullies. Coming from a time when morally wrong views are commonplace does not mean one is necessarily going to hold said views. An average person from that time period will probably think like that. But the point of this particular character was always that he is a good man first, and a soldier second. Now if something like the super soldier serum was real, including amplifying a person's innate traits? Most people from any period of history taking that would scare me. But no, just being from that time period doesn't mean he would automatically be a bigot.
I had literal 0 expectations for Soldier Boy as a character but holy shit he steals the show everytime he is on screen. His cover on Rapture and his quotes made him instantly my favorite character
@@mkultra2456 Too clarify, I used literal because I never watched Jensen prior to him being on the Boys and knowing him only from Supernatural, I only imagined him as the guy playing that one guy for nearly 2 decades and bring that to the show so my expectations were literally zero, very low if I am being generous but yeah Jensen proved me wrong and I’m eating my words figuratively ;)
same here. I hope they crank it up with him in the next season. HE is the start, dont fucking pussy him out of kill him off like cobra kai did to barnes
Jensen Ackles plays a belligerent cocky gung ho gramps SO FUCKING WELL it literally nearly ruins the show, but just dances on the line. It’s pure glory.
Bruh he was the best part of s3 imo, the one that's like nearly ruining the show was Butcher double crossing SB when he's fulfilling his end of the bargain
Nearly ruining the show? How? He’s literally the best character in S3, what nearly ruins the show is the abysmal writing in S3 trying to make SoldierBoy a villain when Homelander is 20x worse.
@@gutsssz yeah, arbys is so bad that we shouldn’t even talk about how bad Burger King is. More then one person can be a bad person, it’s not all good vs evil, that’s just life.
Whats really amazing is how they built up Soldier Boys paranoia before the nun and preist scene. To where you're not sure if it is his paranoia or if he's being honest. Masterclass in setting the scene.
@@ma-saracendude you need to get your head checked. Huey is normal and soldier boy is the toxic past that was too afraid to show or talk about how he really felt.
Jensen is one of the best actors to ever grace TV shows. It’s sad he isn’t in more things. He really embodies every character he plays and does it brilliantly.
He isn't really though? Of all the characters in The Boys, SB probably is one of the "good" ones. He may be a complete caricature of toxic masculinity, a drug addict, a bit of a chauvanist and violent, but compared to the rest, he's a saint. He's arguably a better person than Billy.
@@SSD_Penumbra He wrecked a car into Mother's Milk's home and instead of saving anyone he let them all die. Also most of the things he's bragging about are supposed to clue you in to the fact that he's no better than the current superheroes. Not to mention he essentially killed Black Noir just for speaking out against him.
@@FredrickTesla Again, compared to literally every other supe barring maybe Starlight, he's a saint. Look at Homelander, for example. Man kills for fun, goes off on a rant about how much better he is, straight up rapes people and not to mention the myriad of other creepy stuff he does. He didn't save MM's family because he had a mission to complete, and he didn't kill BN for that reason. He killed him because they all turned against HIM. When he found out, he fought them, managing to beat BN almost to death before the rest managed to get him. He was betrayed by them, not the other way around. That mirrors how Homelander betrays BN too.
It was a better way of saying Soldier Boy got raped like he did in the comics but more so in a manner that wouldn’t cause complaints against the audience
One of most clever lines from soilder boy is after Hughie tells him he has PTSD, he responds by saying "I dont have shellshock, fuck you." Its because PTSD was not even discovered as a condition yet in the WW2 era. So to him Hughie is just making things up because he doesn't understand WAR.
@@mjay6245 lmao people who only new shell shock would be confused when told about ptsd 😂 soldier boy isn’t smart. He couldn’t even figure out he never actually stormed Normandy
He and Jared and Misha all intentionally lowered their voices and actually wound up permanently lowering their voice registers. That can happen after 15 years speaking that way
Well we already know he was an asshole before. I think the idea of a spin off after this would make more sense. They have little bits in the show that made soldier boy seem like he could be redeemable at least to a certain extent. He appeared to be remorseful about hurting those innocent people, he seemed confused about why his team would betray him, and somewhat hurt about his old man and his relationship when he was telling butcher about it. So that’s all good stuff that could be used to make his arc take a turn for good if he was to see the evil in his ways.
2:39 “Me and this other supe Liberty, MAN was she a Firecracker". Holy shit that's a crazy foreshadowing considering the fact that other supe called "Firecracker" shows up in the show and she is the literal analogy of Stormfront loool
I like how Soldier Boy is technically the hero of season 3 cos he kept his word and went after the bad guy...everyone else was running in circles and acting like a nut
@@smokeygoblin2467 a hero generally does what is right regardless of feelings or consequences, and that's what Soldier Boy was doing. He is not a heroic character and yes he was a monster, but in the context of this season he was the closest thing to a protagonist because in the end he kept the mission while everyone else flaked out
@@leroilapue15 He wasn’t doing what was right. Yeah, he was killing Homelander but I think you forgot the part where he tried to kill an innocent child as well. Butcher did the most heroic thing in the scene by abandoning his petty revenge quest and moving to protect the child, even if the child hates him. Is Homelander the worst? Absolutely, but it says something when both the bad guy and the other bad guy team up to take down the other guy. They’re all fucked up men doing bad things for the wrong reasons, Butcher was the one who decided to be better, that was the point.
@@smokeygoblin2467I never got the impression Soldier Boy was going to kill Ryan, and you forget that immediately before Ryan lasers the man across the room. I mean, he literally crippled Stormfront with that move. I don’t know why someone didn’t just grab Ryan and leave, he’s clearly weaker than super Butcher.
mindstorm is the biggest threat to everyone. he’s too strong. he had to die, otherwise homelander wouldn’t even be a threat anymore. really i don’t get why they didn’t at least mention that possibility
@@quanicle101 i mean mindstorm did his trick on SB during noirs reenactment and it didn't really work so it probably wouldn't work on Homelander either
@@MarioFsx it definitely worked a little bit. it gave them an opening to slap the novichok on his face. even if mindstorm can’t put homelander in a coma, he can at least scramble his brain a bit and give everyone else an opening to beat his ass to death, which seems like it may be possible now since we know he can be injured
The fact that MM’s halothane gas which is toxic to a regular human didn’t affect Soldier Boy but Bill Cosby’s drinks did is one of the funniest things the show has ever done
If they were trying to make this dude unlikeable, they shouldn’t have spent 3 seasons making EVERYONE ELSE unlikeable. After watching most of the other characters do absolutely deplorable things in the name of their own justice, they look like hypocrites for condemning Soldier Boy for anything.
That's the worst part about this show, the deviation from the actual plot to virtue signaling. When MM and Starlight were trying to stop SB, and their only reasoning was "it's just not the right thing to do" while having 0 ways to beat homelander.
They better bring him back, he has a PERFECT comedic back and forth with the entire cast (except MM for obvious reasons) and honestly deserves a redemption arc. Not a good guy by any means, but he at least has guts.
Soldier boy was the only one doing the right thing in the last episode, else everyone just ruined the plan. Butcher shouldn't have betrayed him, all he had to do was to take Ryan away.
Tbf, Soldier Boy is just a different brand of Homelanders "psycho". Even if they did manage to kill Homelander, they'd still have to kill Soldier Boy. The man is a menace and a walking crime against humanity.
@@Happyfoam-lw3yt is he though? Honestly he's really more of just an asshole with PTSD than a psycho. I feel like as long as he has a mission he can get behind he wouldn't really be as much of a problem. When Payback captured him, he was the Only one of the supes there that was actually fighting the enemy instead of killing their friendlies.
Soldier boy's biggest power is his durability, no other supe could survive being shot in their throat or other internal body areas, homelander literally bled when maeve inserted that metal tube in his ears, he's also mentally so durable that mindstorm struggled to put him to sleep when payback was betraying him, whereas mindstorm had no problem with working his mojo on butcher on temp V who was only a level weaker than homelander. Also Soldier boy doesn't age whereas in the new season we can clearly see homelander with the obvious signs of ageing like grey hairs and skin wrinkles. Whatever strength he lacks in term of flight or lasering abilities, he makes up for by his insane durability.
I've heard it's all because of how powerful the first iteration of Compound V created by Frederick Vought m was. The later versions were not as potent as the original. That's why Soldier Boy and Stormfront never aged while Homelander is starting to age
While yea i am sure he is durable, most supes can survive being shot in the throat or something easily. Hell, Kimiko gets shot tf up all the time and even gets her neck snapped, and she ends up fine
It could also be that soldier boy damaged homelander DNA when he expose to him a slight of his beam Making him having the effects of time Atleast this is the theory that is on going on the net To explain perhaps why homelander is aging
@@bloemkoolendestreetgang450but thats because kimikos power isnt just regeneration or enhanced physical attributes, she has survived things that would kill a person, thats not regeneration, thats like low level immortality. Kinda like Deadpool or wolverine.
Best scenes in the season. They were so polarising and funny. It was the fact that soldier boy thinking his mannerisms were fucking normal that got me tho
@@orcastrike7750 Homelander kills anyone he can whenever there is no witness around, even when he has a bad emotional feelings. Remember the Jewish girl whom he forced to jump to her death when he learnt Stormfront was dead?
@@commanderiosifstalin4938 homelander kills anyone even when there is witnesses. Ryan, his son killed someone when there was witnesses (yes by accident but still) and homelander killed the person that threw something at ryan. Nobody really cares because they cocksuck homelander and that's one of the things the boys likes to show. People blindly follow celebrities
It’s so crazy how the show tried to compare his morality at all to Homelander. Not once did SB at all make any attempt to go out of his way to kill people, or commit genocide. If the Boys left him alone, and he didn’t have the Shell-shock attacks, the world would be fine with him doing whatever.
He has more integrity than anyone in Vought or the Seven, with the very arguable exception being Starlight. Even then he showed more remorse for his accidental civvie kills than she did when murdeing some random dude for his car
I thought it was a nice nod, recognising that people from that generation might not be used to gay people and might say the wrong thing, but that doesn't mean they're bigots. S
I love when Hughie gets the courage to call out Soldier Boy and gets punched right back to reality. Hung out with Butcher too long and thought he could mouth off to anyone without consequence.
props to soldier boy for showing restrain as he only gave hugie the softest slap he would have ever given to anyone. If it his was homelander he would have simply wiped Hugie off the face of earth with his lasers
I disagree. His will is weak. He indulges himself at every turn, can’t restrain his need for revenge and has an inferiority complex. He always needs to prove he is strong, even when he is the strongest person in the room. No better then a child always looking for approval. The reason why Mindstorm couldn’t bring him down was because of the abuse that he inflicted on every member of his team. Guy literally tried to control them using fear and wondered why they betrayed him. It was fear that prevented Mindstorm from finishing him off because he couldn’t concentrate. It would be similar to a child standing up to an abusive father. There is still the memory of abuse and that memory has a strangle hold on a persons confidence.
I agree and disagree. These old hard mindsets do get shit done better when its a simple hard situation. But once it comes to more complex longterm things that rely on cooperation they only get in the way
Let's just hope they can keep his charisma and stormfronts "sexy bitch" attitude up for the entire show there coming out for them. It's hard to keep a show consistent. Especially with so many different series linked to the main. I mean, look at TWD
Butcher should have gone with Soldier Boy full stop. Soldier boy is at the very least 10 times better than Homelander. He might be an old school racist and misogynist but he isn't homicidally insane. He can also be calmed with drugs and sex with old ladies.
@@Were_the_tops Yeah he definitely wasn't a racist. Some people think he is just coz MM called him that. But heck he pretty much hates everyone equally regardless of their skin color.
Bro stop being a soy boy woke lib like American society today! He was a “racist misogynist” smh, made up terms for victim mentality low life’s! SB was REAL old school tough, how society should be!
Soldier boy as a cocky ride or die style gramps from an entire different generation is an incredibly interesting character. The actor plays him so well, and his voice is just perfect and the writing is so good 😂
Damn guess the concept of love is just non existent to yall. Yeah it’s not based to raise someone else’s kid. But that doesn’t matter if you love the kids mother which is what butcher did.
I find it interesting how he wasn’t offended or disgusted by that gay couple, he was just surprised that they were kissing in public because he never saw that before.
he nearly walked away with this show. the dudebro soap opera that is supernatural makes it very easy to overlook how natural and charismatic and genuinely good ackles is. id love to see him in more stuff. hopefully more of this show.
3:40 "what'd you say?" ---"what?" "what?" ---"nuffin mate. no one said nuffin." that's gotta be the most accidentally funny thing ive ever seen out of this show lmao
Soilder Boy is a great twist on what Captain America's story was. Instead of being stuck in ice for decades, thawing out in the modern day. Soilder was given to Russian for testing, being locked up for decades.

Hughie was a supe at that point, too. He and Butcher injected V into their veins. It would have probably injured him a lot if he wasn't a supe
If not for temp v, even a punch that restrained could have ripped Hughies jaw off
Yea I’d imagine Soldier Boy is strong as hell since we see Hughie try to lift his shield and he can’t
I haven't watched the show. Does Huey have some kind of damage reduction or healing power? Cuz even that punch would have killed a regular man a few times over.
Soldier Boy was the best part of this season. I really hope he doesn't get wasted. His character has so much potential to take the show forward. Also, I want to see him wreck the shit out of A-Train and the Deep.
Hell yeah bro.
I do think he comes back,that’s why he got frozen again and not killed. Also it’s Jensen ackles,who is best friends with the producers. They certainly won’t waste him
A-Train is back on his peak form though so I don't think he's gonna get wrecked easily.
Well the writers blew the season finale. Just awful
Well, you dont need Soldier Boy to wreck The Deep 😂😂
I love how Ackles and the writers both manage to mock Captain America and Dean Winchester at the same time.
While still allowing him to be awesome. Great balance, great writing, great acting.

What I like about Soldier Boy is that even though he is a Grade-A asshole and nothing about his past justifies his behavior, you can see that his real life experiences make him more capable of realizing what a fucked-up and awful world he came from was and how terrible of a person he's been.
He's not Homelander. When Soldier Boy killed people, it was in real fights. He saw real battles. He suffered real trauma. He underwent *real* abuse that wasn't covered up or handwaved away. (The way he was raised was socially accepted for his time period.) He was similarly "produced", but he wasn't manufactured.
When he sees Homelander for the horrible, rotten creature that he is, he recognizes how bad things are. Sadly, because of his upbringing, his instincts are to begrudgingly admit that his father was right. At potentially the worst possible time too. But while that doesn't excuse any of his actions, you definitely don't blame him for trying. (And unfortunately coming to the wrong conclusions.)
Extraordinary analysis. Top marks
he certainly is a product of his time. i think what makes him appealling is how brutallyself-aware he is. He's like butcher basically knows hes a monster but has come to terms with it and HATES ppl like homelander that deny what they are.
He threw a car through mothers milks house as a child and saved no one lmao that’s still killing people
He's the only sane person in the world
Homelander went through real abuse too. They pretty much did to Homelander what the Russians did to Soldier Boy (tortured him to see what he can handle). Except Homelander was a kid.
I like how solider boy is pretty much captain America but is more accurate to the real world. Him seeing a gay couple especially both black and white would have him confused
I mean he didn't get captured till the 80's, It wouldn't be entirely new to him. the 70's were pretty wild.
Captain America of the 80's, but he gets captured instead of Bucky

Same
I don't think that anyone hates him, he was hilarious. For sure the highlight of season 3
Yeah, it kinda hurt to see everyone fighting him at the end. He’s not a good person by any means but not nearly as terrible or a threat as everyone was making him out to be, especially Starlight and MM. Both of them were more concerned about taking down Soldier Boy than Homelander.
He's a pos but goddam I love this character more and more his humor gets me all the time.
Well, hiring one of the most charismatic actors out there and then expecting viewers to hate him was a possible wrong move.
And yeah, Mother's Milk calling him a racist piece of shit came out of nowhere. He didn't say a single racist thing whole season like the writers forgot to add that, so they had that line so we remember we are suppose to root for the boys.
If he was racist would he hang out with Bill Cosby? Yeah, that has a different set of bad to it, but obviously not racism.
Also, he kept his word to Butcher making him the only man of his words on the show.

@@heavenlysteel8337 Homie came from a time where segregation was a thing, 100% he would be a bigot

I think you're assuming that he would be an average guy from that time period.
Steve Rogers grew up in NYC as a poor, very sick kid at the height of eugenics being the popular thing. His views on people who were viewed as "inferior" might not be what you think.
And at least in some versions of his story, he says that he doesn't hate or want to go off members of the predominant German political group at the time, and that he just didn't like bullies.
Coming from a time when morally wrong views are commonplace does not mean one is necessarily going to hold said views. An average person from that time period will probably think like that. But the point of this particular character was always that he is a good man first, and a soldier second.
Now if something like the super soldier serum was real, including amplifying a person's innate traits? Most people from any period of history taking that would scare me.
But no, just being from that time period doesn't mean he would automatically be a bigot.

Bruh he was the best part of s3 imo, the one that's like nearly ruining the show was Butcher double crossing SB when he's fulfilling his end of the bargain
Nearly ruining the show? How? He’s literally the best character in S3, what nearly ruins the show is the abysmal writing in S3 trying to make SoldierBoy a villain when Homelander is 20x worse.

He isn't really though?
Of all the characters in The Boys, SB probably is one of the "good" ones. He may be a complete caricature of toxic masculinity, a drug addict, a bit of a chauvanist and violent, but compared to the rest, he's a saint. He's arguably a better person than Billy.
@@SSD_Penumbra He wrecked a car into Mother's Milk's home and instead of saving anyone he let them all die.

@@FredrickTesla Again, compared to literally every other supe barring maybe Starlight, he's a saint.
Look at Homelander, for example. Man kills for fun, goes off on a rant about how much better he is, straight up rapes people and not to mention the myriad of other creepy stuff he does.
He didn't save MM's family because he had a mission to complete, and he didn't kill BN for that reason. He killed him because they all turned against HIM. When he found out, he fought them, managing to beat BN almost to death before the rest managed to get him. He was betrayed by them, not the other way around. That mirrors how Homelander betrays BN too.

One of most clever lines from soilder boy is after Hughie tells him he has PTSD, he responds by saying "I dont have shellshock, fuck you." Its because PTSD was not even discovered as a condition yet in the WW2 era. So to him Hughie is just making things up because he doesn't understand WAR.
Yet he understood a term he had never heard before was a new term for shell shock
@imanoldurango8213 He could easily deduce what Hugie meant from the context of the situation.
PTSD used to be called shell shock. George Carlin has a bit about it
@@mjay6245 lmao people who only new shell shock would be confused when told about ptsd 😂 soldier boy isn’t smart. He couldn’t even figure out he never actually stormed Normandy
@@mjay6245 he literally got taken down by his own team. Homelander is an idiot and still didn’t get taken down
Finally his voice matches his intent. Always felt like he was intentionally lowering his voice in Supernatural.
I read somewhere that Jensen did it on purpose, what with all the screaming Dean did in hell. Made his voice gruff and whatnot
He and Jared and Misha all intentionally lowered their voices and actually wound up permanently lowering their voice registers. That can happen after 15 years speaking that way
We seriously need a Soldier Boy prequel or tv show or something.
Well we already know he was an asshole before. I think the idea of a spin off after this would make more sense. They have little bits in the show that made soldier boy seem like he could be redeemable at least to a certain extent. He appeared to be remorseful about hurting those innocent people, he seemed confused about why his team would betray him, and somewhat hurt about his old man and his relationship when he was telling butcher about it. So that’s all good stuff that could be used to make his arc take a turn for good if he was to see the evil in his ways.
Nah, resist the urge to suck everything dry.
Wow

@@smokeygoblin2467 a hero generally does what is right regardless of feelings or consequences, and that's what Soldier Boy was doing.

Soldier boy's biggest power is his durability, no other supe could survive being shot in their throat or other internal body areas, homelander literally bled when maeve inserted that metal tube in his ears, he's also mentally so durable that mindstorm struggled to put him to sleep when payback was betraying him, whereas mindstorm had no problem with working his mojo on butcher on temp V who was only a level weaker than homelander. Also Soldier boy doesn't age whereas in the new season we can clearly see homelander with the obvious signs of ageing like grey hairs and skin wrinkles. Whatever strength he lacks in term of flight or lasering abilities, he makes up for by his insane durability.
I've heard it's all because of how powerful the first iteration of Compound V created by Frederick Vought m was. The later versions were not as potent as the original. That's why Soldier Boy and Stormfront never aged while Homelander is starting to age
While yea i am sure he is durable, most supes can survive being shot in the throat or something easily. Hell, Kimiko gets shot tf up all the time and even gets her neck snapped, and she ends up fine

I love when Hughie gets the courage to call out Soldier Boy and gets punched right back to reality. Hung out with Butcher too long and thought he could mouth off to anyone without consequence.
That really took balls
Reality is that SB is a pussy with fake muscles. Hughey is the only one with balls since he's always the weakest one.
props to soldier boy for showing restrain as he only gave hugie the softest slap he would have ever given to anyone.
If it his was homelander he would have simply wiped Hugie off the face of earth with his lasers
@@sagarm1997 i might be incorrect but I do believe Hugie was on compound v at the time, and if he wasn't he would have been dead tbh.
A slap to reality? What reality? The reality SB actively denies because he’s a loony who’s out of time?
Shows who the real man is here.
3:31 his little smile after "we're gonna need more reefer" is just hilarious to me
"god im so glad this is legal now"
The smile after he says " we're going to need more reefer" classic
They hired such a cool and badass actor as a cool and badass character, hands down the best character in the show.
Soldier Boy has indomitable willpower. Thats why he became so powerful as a supe. Easily my most favourite character in the show
U think he'll come back for season 4?
@@Whiffs probably in the s4 finale. Makes sense to build him up even more
what kinda bullshit did i just read, hes just funny asf bruh and his morales are interesting
I disagree. His will is weak. He indulges himself at every turn, can’t restrain his need for revenge and has an inferiority complex. He always needs to prove he is strong, even when he is the strongest person in the room. No better then a child always looking for approval. The reason why Mindstorm couldn’t bring him down was because of the abuse that he inflicted on every member of his team. Guy literally tried to control them using fear and wondered why they betrayed him. It was fear that prevented Mindstorm from finishing him off because he couldn’t concentrate. It would be similar to a child standing up to an abusive father. There is still the memory of abuse and that memory has a strangle hold on a persons confidence.
I agree and disagree. These old hard mindsets do get shit done better when its a simple hard situation. But once it comes to more complex longterm things that rely on cooperation they only get in the way
I want a Soldier Boy show.
You’re in luck.
You got your wish
Let's just hope they can keep his charisma and stormfronts "sexy bitch" attitude up for the entire show there coming out for them. It's hard to keep a show consistent. Especially with so many different series linked to the main. I mean, look at TWD
im so happy that Jensen Ackles went from being my favorite on Superantural - to my new favorite character on the Boys.
He killed it in this role.
"I Tried Beating Spiderman 2 WITHOUT Taking DAMAGE" check out the video
Exactly
The liberty reference was crazy lol
for sure
wasn't she Stormfront?
@@xaviermoyssenalvarez4419 yea
“I don’t have shell shock, Fuck you” has me crying😭
After doming a elderly Christian couple lol
Butcher should have gone with Soldier Boy full stop. Soldier boy is at the very least 10 times better than Homelander. He might be an old school racist and misogynist but he isn't homicidally insane. He can also be calmed with drugs and sex with old ladies.
I mean i dont rlly think he was racist bro was pretty fond of bill cosby
@@Were_the_tops Yeah he definitely wasn't a racist. Some people think he is just coz MM called him that. But heck he pretty much hates everyone equally regardless of their skin color.
Bro stop being a soy boy woke lib like American society today! He was a “racist misogynist” smh, made up terms for victim mentality low life’s! SB was REAL old school tough, how society should be!
He was a product of his time just like everyone today.
Soldier boy as a cocky ride or die style gramps from an entire different generation is an incredibly interesting character. The actor plays him so well, and his voice is just perfect and the writing is so good 😂
if u likee this, come check out my platinum vids as well - th-cam.com/video/TVgB_QdV96Y/w-d-xo.html
I still can't believe that Butcher actually uttered the phrase "my wife's son."
Theres just no way on this planet to make that phrase not sound silly, is there.
@@emetanti
Nope, there isn't.
Damn guess the concept of love is just non existent to yall. Yeah it’s not based to raise someone else’s kid. But that doesn’t matter if you love the kids mother which is what butcher did.
@@justjoshua5759 This is about the phrase more than anything.
He's a cuck
1:52 this makes me chuckle everytime you can even see the actor holding it's laughter, and then Hughie realizing he has a LOT to explain
I find it interesting how he wasn’t offended or disgusted by that gay couple, he was just surprised that they were kissing in public because he never saw that before.
But absolutely fucking offended by a baby carrier
The delivery of the line "You made those words up" really kills me everytime lmfao
He and Kimiko were for sure the best part of season 3, they stole the spotlight in every scene they were in
he nearly walked away with this show. the dudebro soap opera that is supernatural makes it very easy to overlook how natural and charismatic and genuinely good ackles is. id love to see him in more stuff. hopefully more of this show.
Bro I just love how at 6:33 you can hear soldier boy getting more tired of dealing with Hughie LOL
The hoover deluxe line had me dyin lmaoo
I like how hughie looked at soldier boy and thought “wait you didn’t know she was a-“
Doubtful, it was a complete secret until the 21st Century.
Man said “huey” lmfao
sorry but timestamp pls
@@BrokenSIMGlasses 2:38 talking about liberty(stormfront)
@@dredgenhk oh right
Soldier Boy fought WW2 (but implied that he didn't) so nazi alert
2:43 Jensen nailed the old man laugh
3:40
"what'd you say?"
---"what?"
"what?"
---"nuffin mate. no one said nuffin."
that's gotta be the most accidentally funny thing ive ever seen out of this show lmao
5:06 “His mouth must feel like a Hoover Deluxe.” 😂😂😂
God everything single thing you say is so gross he saved me okay more than once so I owe him
Oh bullshit. you are on a mission, you get the job done, 'kay?
‘I stormed norma die I fought the nazis yknow what I do when Im sad or scared Fucking nothing cause i’m not a fucking pussy’
@@Insertname-gb4vcyou didn't storm sh!t, your whole Malboro act, it's f@çking crap
Okay but the last clip is understandable 💀
Hahaha ye. I mean if i was all powerful... i'm pretty sure i wouldn't wear a cape either.
*last 2, big time. He's tied with Noir for my favorite season 3 character tbh
And the first one
Wait....Homelander fucked your wife too?
"Where's the cum guzzler" "He's my wife's son"
Soilder Boy is a great twist on what Captain America's story was. Instead of being stuck in ice for decades, thawing out in the modern day.
Soilder was given to Russian for testing, being locked up for decades.
