I was really waiting for Billy to respond with: 'Cruel? I don't know, doc. Why don't you tell me? The blood on my hands is nothing but a bucket compared to the ocean you have on yours.'
@@dmac4278 Butcher not responding in that way and just going straight to threats is a more realistic reaction. This guy is like anti Oppenheimer, he didn't EVEN consider how many thousands Homelander was going on hurt. If Butcher went with that line, he knows it wouldn't get to doc at all.
1:14 This was was probably the only time Butcher had any sympathy for Homelander and his face pretty much says “What did you do to that boy that made him turn out like he his today”
I do wonder if Butcher genuinely hated Homelander less after this meeting. I think the most telling part of the whole conversation is "He didn't even want it." The thing that defines EVERYTHING Homelander has done (except for trying to be in Ryan's life) has been because he is desperate for attention, to be seen as the most powerful being to ever exist. And he didn't even want it. He was told by an abusive father figure who literally tortured him, THAT is who is supposed to be. To quote a different movie, Homelander's just a mad dog. Sure, he needs to be put down, but Vogelbaum is the one who drove him mad and he's the one who let him off the leash. Plus going on a bit of a tangent, but there's no chance Vought just hands Soldier Boy, at the time their most prized asset, over to the Russian government. No. That was the cover. The fact that the Russians had enough Compound V to bother experimenting on a hamster with it shows they had enough to create supe soldiers, but there's been no sign of them. The facility SB was kept in may have been in Russia, but Vought owned it. And that means Vogelbaum, the entire time, knew a way to neutralise Homelander's powers through a mix of Compound V and radiation, given SB's new powers. He could have spared the world, instead he put SB on ice and never made another supe that could remove powers.
Butchers face as he heard Homelanders story was freaking tragic. To know that before this cruel prick "went to town on him", Homelander was a sweet, kind boy that just wanted love and acceptance, not power or to be a hero.
Also the fact that Homelander loved the idea of fantasy and the forest, uncharted territories he could explore in seconds yet take his time looking at all the flora and fauna that would surround him instead of the cold white walls of his “room”
The fact that JUST like Ryan, Homelander was once a sweet and loving child, means a lot to Butcher, as Homelander would've never EVER did what he did in the present without breaking a sweat without the intervention of fuckhead Vogelbaum. It only makes Butcher prioritize saving Ryan more so that there will never be another Homelander, and to that extent never another Billy Butcher. Ryan symbolizes the hope that the next generation can change and be better than the previous. The past doesn't define the future.
@@MrWhiskeycricket I don’t know how you could have been bored! I personally know people who don’t like the Boys and even they would NEVER call it boring! There is always so much interesting shit going on each episode and the story moves at a breakneck pace. The show is also WAY better than the comic imo. They actually make you feel sympathy for the “bad” superheroes and ensure that you understand exactly how they turned out the way they are. Homelander and Butcher in particular are MUCH more interesting characters than their comic counterparts. They genuinely both feel like real people with nuanced three dimensional personalities. I don’t think there are many stories that have done the “bad superhero” concept better than The Boys TV show. The only two I can think of are the Invincible Comic and the Injustice DC storyline. But those are two of the most acclaimed superhero comics ever written.
@@MrWhiskeycricket I don’t know how you could describe The Boys as a “soap opera”. Sure it can be a bit melodramatic at times but the stories of soap operas usually move at a very slow pace. The Boys DOES NOT have a slow pace AT ALL as there is constant action, drama, and huge events that permanently alter the story in nearly every episode. I actually think “Watchmen” is MUCH more of a Soap Opera than The Boys. Watchman’s story moves at a much slower pace until Ozymandias’s plan is set in motion near the ending. Also if you think Injustice is awful you are in a very small minority with that opinion…

It’s not a persona it’s just he has no reason to act hostile to the woman. Evil pointlessly spat in all directions is just fodder. Controlled concise evil tampered and put to a specific purpose is what it is. He knows who to draw his metaphorical sword against and who not to
The idea that homelander could have been superman had he just been left to grow, but instead they wanted to make who was already objectuvely the strongest being to maybe ever live "stronger" by torchering a sweet child is horrific.
Karl Urbans fan base might not be the biggest but we are very loyal. I track his career for a long time now and he never disappoints in any of his roles
I think the issue is that he's either been in a lot of very mid things, or he's been given a number of mid roles. That's no fault of his, it's just how it is sometimes. Some people just need a good role in a good thing in order for them to get the recognition they have perhaps always deserved.
Anyone with a prominent character in the the LotR franchise has not had their career overlooked, you dip. Dude has been an A-lister since the 90s. stfu and get a decent opinion... everyone in this thread is delusional.
Depends on how similar he is to his comic book counterpart. If he's anything like the Butcher from the comics than he is only slightly less evil than Homelander.
Butcher wants to hear that Homelander grew up completely as a sadist dressed as a celebrity yet Vogelbaum says Homelander actually started off as any other kid with dreams, not even wanting to be the Vought super brand he would be groomed into. Gives the audience a chance to see how Butcher reacts when it's not just the terrible Supes he aims his violence at, but the monsters that enabled them. Even if he has to hurt their families or sacrifice his own red lines to achieve his goals.
I heard him speak and literally thought "hey, that sounds like 'praetorians, kill this asshole' " before realizing that it was, in fact, Caesar in front of me, in the flesh.
The way he makes noise moving the chair gives me both tyrion and jules vibes. “Oh I’m sorry. Did i break your concentration?” He gives no shits about his intentions or his guilt.
Butcher by a great margin. Jules was a calm and reasonable person, he was someone who you can talk to and he would genuinely listen to you even if he's pointing a gun at your head. Meanwhile Butcher is a psychopath, he won't even bother listening to what you're saying, he'll just pull tge trigger.

3:08 I don’t know who was hit more with 2 tons of irony, based on how the world works this guy in this moment by Billy Butcher, or a train after his brother gets hurt. I mean seriously how can these people be so damn surprised
To take a sweet innocent child and turn them into a complete flipping monster is a special type of evil that upon your deathyou get your own Wing In Hell dedicated to torturing you
3:07 "How can you be so-" Please, you have absolutely no right to say that after what you and Vought made and unleashed on the world and poor blokes like Butcher-so many hypocrites in this universe lol
What makes the way that Butcher describes how he’s gonna kill Vogelbaum’s family much scarier is that there is no music playing throughout the entire scene, making it horrifically realistic. Sometimes not having music play makes a scene all the more terrifying.
That long ass stare tho too he be like "I'ma drink this tea as ur pissin' yer'pants from my threat" Bc he literally put The doctors family in jeopardy but hey, the doctor started it all- i kinda want to see Dr V's bloodline ending lol
Vogelbum the Guy who trained and toughened up Supes as profession gets scared by a mere human.. thats how scary Butcher is.. Unreal portrayal by Karl Urban
People have forgot that he was ready to kill Stilwell baby for no reason? He knew that homelander was not gonna die by the explosion but still done it. Billy is no different from homelander, but at least he is able to knowledge that he is a bad person at the end of the day.
If the show turns out to end like the comic, then this isn’t even close to the reverse psychopath butcher becomes, because trust me, everyone is fucked when that happens.
it's easy to say that Butcher is a psychopath in the comic when Butcher hates himself for that reason... he didn't even set up to kill everyone out of random... he wanted Hughie to be stronger and be more ruthless in order to stop Butcher and his crusade and it's why he lets Hughie live but even when Hughie goes on to attack Butcher, Billy still tries to save him even though he failed and Hughie gets injured in the process but the thing that really set off Hughie was that he actually believed that Butcher really did kidnap his family and they were ready to die in which Hughie snapped and stabbed Butcher but Hughie regrets it and then calls his family if they're actually okay and they are and Butcher smiles because of what Hughie did... when Hughie asks of what happened between them and Butcher, they said that he was very nice to them... funnily enough, comic Butcher is actually nicer to the ppl around him and even Hughie elsewell... the show doesn't pull of the same thing but does a similar thing but in a different way and that's totally fine because the show are actually FANS of the original work... they don't hate it and actually tried to improve the dogsh1t that was The Boys comic since thr comic was never bad or anything like that as the public opinion claims to say... its funny how the Public Opinion once again completely sways ppls thinking or perception to that specific thing and just say that it's bad or just say the same thing that ppl heard from the person who made the house call aka PointlessHub... now everyone sh1ts on the comic and just say the same thing and no one has their own opinions on it... and when someone does, they still alter their way of thinking or. perception of thr comic because of how the public opinion responds to those who try to have their own opinion of the comic.
Karl Urban is the only other guy i could imagine as a phenomenal, ferocious yet still likeable Wolverine / Logan, and i still would love to see him in that role even though i don't think that this will ever happen due to his former marvel roles. that said, there is one character i'd like tu see Urban take on again - DREDD. Dredd3D was hugely underrated and underexposed, but was fantastic. It begs for another movie. Hard-boiled and absolutely brutal. Would love to see that.
You're right. I watched dredd on daytime TV years after it had come out and I expected it to be total garbage. I was shocked to find that it was much better than I'd expected and realized how tragic it is that it didn't become a series of films. A big part of it was Karl Urban's excellent performance but it's too late now. The window for a dredd series of films like that is gone and maybe it's for the best.
Butcher reminds me of Matt from sicario a cheerful carefree guy and in a second have you in a corner pissing yourself he is willing to do whatever is necessary
There's so much that Billy took away from this interaction, firstly that Homalander was once also like Ryan, a sweet innocent boy that was shaped into the monster he is today, a fate that can be fall Ryan, secondly, that homelander shared a similar childhood to Himself, he and butcher are two sides of the same coil in that regard, hardened into the men they are today. I believe Butcher when he threated Vogelbuams family, I can see butcher going further into darkness in the seasons to come just to win the fight against supes Be careful when you fight monsters etc
Man tortured a little kid into becoming the worlds most powerful mass murderer and still tries to claim some moral highground when Butcher threatens his family. The audacity of the powerful will never cease to amaze me.
I hope they take away Homelanders powers towards the end of the series…that would be incredible to see him have to deal with being a normal person. That would be better than killing him off I think.
The beautiful part when a villain plays the role of hero, aint no saint but ain’t no demon. He fights for what he believes and what is right in his mind even if others don’t agree
Honestly, if they kept him on, I bet even Soldier Boy would've raised Homelander better than this guy did. I know he's no saint, but maybe having a kid to raise would've helped him out as well.
3:08 "how can you be so--"
Barely a blip on the radar right? Crazy how it feels when the shoe is on the other foot

3:05 he who fights by the sword, dies by it. You made your family fair game.
3:33 This is the very definition of aggressively British.
Drives OVER the lawn like a Chad
chad
The most menacing sip of tea in history. Lol That side eye.
Butcher is pretty much the alternate version of Batman / Bruce Wayne. Contingencies.
More like the punisher. Super smart but also completely ruthless and relentless in his pursuit of self defined evil…
hes more like V or rorschach pretty much the only thing that makes him a "good" person is that he happens to be fighting people worse than him
I’ve always liked Billy driving over the grass.
1:29 is when butcher begins to see similarities in his & homelanders upbringing
man.. Butcher realizing how much he relates to Homelander, and having to change the subject.
3:08 I don’t know who was hit more with 2 tons of irony, based on how the world works this guy in this moment by Billy Butcher, or a train after his brother gets hurt. I mean seriously how can these people be so damn surprised
Billy could totally fuck with Homelander by mocking him about liking Davey Crockett lol
Why? Davey Crockett was a hero.
@@kylelapointe2289 he'll probably be like "Did ya wear the little Davey Crockett hat? When you begged daddy to love you?"
Hearing him talk about homelander when he was younger reminds me of the more recent episodes when homelander visits the lab
To take a sweet innocent child and turn them into a complete flipping monster is a special type of evil that upon your deathyou get your own Wing In Hell dedicated to torturing you
I love how this is a reflection of Butcher and his own father
“Loved the Idea of the woods” is that foreshadowing? If you seen Gen V you would know what I mean
"He didn't even want it, it was for me." such a sad line, Homelander isn't the true villain, Vought is.
3:07 "How can you be so-"
Please, you have absolutely no right to say that after what you and Vought made and unleashed on the world and poor blokes like Butcher-so many hypocrites in this universe lol
That coat, the beard and hair and the accent with piercing gaze, you'd shit bricks in his presence.
Comics Butcher was way scarier.
What makes the way that Butcher describes how he’s gonna kill Vogelbaum’s family much scarier is that there is no music playing throughout the entire scene, making it horrifically realistic. Sometimes not having music play makes a scene all the more terrifying.
This long sip is fucking hilarious. Fuckin love Butcher
That long ass stare tho too he be like "I'ma drink this tea as ur pissin' yer'pants from my threat" Bc he literally put The doctors family in jeopardy but hey, the doctor started it all- i kinda want to see Dr V's bloodline ending lol
Deputy Rawls never shouldve taken that deal with Carcetti. Look at what he got himself into after leaving the force!
I love how Billy drives straight over the lawn to park his car. We don't need no stinkin car loop.
Vogelbum the Guy who trained and toughened up Supes as profession gets scared by a mere human.. thats how scary Butcher is.. Unreal portrayal by Karl Urban
03:38 This death stare...Reminds me of Arnold's classics.
The only scene that makes you feel bad for Homelander
Kinda felt bad for him when he broke down when Ryan went with Butcher. Totally deserved but still
In a sense, homelander is the greatest victim in the whole show,with maybe billy being the close second@@Jaymark895
People have forgot that he was ready to kill Stilwell baby for no reason? He knew that homelander was not gonna die by the explosion but still done it. Billy is no different from homelander, but at least he is able to knowledge that he is a bad person at the end of the day.
Killing a baby is not the as what homelander did.
3:10 that subtle switch in demeanor makes crazy sense now with the subplot of Joe Kessler
Loved him as McCoy as I only know him as.. but this Karl guy is officially my favorite actor. I gotta ebay some of his other movies!
check out Dredd (2012)
Eomer
Butcher is so fucking intimidating. And hes not even lying. He would absolutely do what he threatened him with.
God this show is so well written (homelander, butcher, edgar, soldier boy), i hope it never drops off.
Wait why hasn’t homelander ever thought of this
Because he already has Ryan in this episode.
3:30 most dangerous sipping in the TV history.
It’s funny how Vogelbaum is like 😢how can you be so cruel. When he literally created a superhuman murdering psychopath
homelander is at worst a sociopath psychopaths are born from what Ive heard not made
She poured the cream in first. Ive heard this is sacrilege to the tea drinking world. More reason for Butcher’s disgust and resentment.
Just realized he drives over the lawn😂
3:35
*Sips tea with malicious intent*
If the show turns out to end like the comic, then this isn’t even close to the reverse psychopath butcher becomes, because trust me, everyone is fucked when that happens.
it's easy to say that Butcher is a psychopath in the comic when Butcher hates himself for that reason... he didn't even set up to kill everyone out of random...
he wanted Hughie to be stronger and be more ruthless in order to stop Butcher and his crusade and it's why he lets Hughie live but even when Hughie goes on to attack Butcher, Billy still tries to save him even though he failed and Hughie gets injured in the process but the thing that really set off Hughie was that he actually believed that Butcher really did kidnap his family and they were ready to die in which Hughie snapped and stabbed Butcher but Hughie regrets it and then calls his family if they're actually okay and they are and Butcher smiles because of what Hughie did... when Hughie asks of what happened between them and Butcher, they said that he was very nice to them...
funnily enough, comic Butcher is actually nicer to the ppl around him and even Hughie elsewell... the show doesn't pull of the same thing but does a similar thing but in a different way and that's totally fine because the show are actually FANS of the original work...
they don't hate it and actually tried to improve the dogsh1t that was The Boys comic since thr comic was never bad or anything like that as the public opinion claims to say...
its funny how the Public Opinion once again completely sways ppls thinking or perception to that specific thing and just say that it's bad or just say the same thing that ppl heard from the person who made the house call aka PointlessHub...
now everyone sh1ts on the comic and just say the same thing and no one has their own opinions on it... and when someone does, they still alter their way of thinking or. perception of thr comic because of how the public opinion responds to those who try to have their own opinion of the comic.
@@godzillazfriction wtf are you talking about brother, I was just comparing the comic with the show and how it mirrors it a little.
@@hot-_-fries1254 😐 nice to completely disregard my comment... fuck you... don't even reply to me... its not even worth it at this point
@@godzillazfriction Nah man, I read the comic and it is shit
@@godzillazfriction but I agree with Butcher being nicer to ppl around him in the comics, it is something I never saw anyone else bringing up before
3:45 I'm a lot worse than you think I am.
After watching Ep 4 of S4, this scene hits different.
HONESTLY
Karl Urban is the only other guy i could imagine as a phenomenal, ferocious yet still likeable Wolverine / Logan, and i still would love to see him in that role even though i don't think that this will ever happen due to his former marvel roles.
that said, there is one character i'd like tu see Urban take on again - DREDD.
Dredd3D was hugely underrated and underexposed, but was fantastic. It begs for another movie. Hard-boiled and absolutely brutal. Would love to see that.
You're right. I watched dredd on daytime TV years after it had come out and I expected it to be total garbage.
I was shocked to find that it was much better than I'd expected and realized how tragic it is that it didn't become a series of films. A big part of it was Karl Urban's excellent performance but it's too late now. The window for a dredd series of films like that is gone and maybe it's for the best.
Only William Butcher can sip a cuppa’ char so menacingly 🥶
Butcher reminds me of Matt from sicario a cheerful carefree guy and in a second have you in a corner pissing yourself he is willing to do whatever is necessary
Just realized that Vogelbaum says "The Woods" here. Might be the one who named the facility in Gen V.
There's so much that Billy took away from this interaction, firstly that Homalander was once also like Ryan, a sweet innocent boy that was shaped into the monster he is today, a fate that can be fall Ryan, secondly, that homelander shared a similar childhood to Himself, he and butcher are two sides of the same coil in that regard, hardened into the men they are today. I believe Butcher when he threated Vogelbuams family, I can see butcher going further into darkness in the seasons to come just to win the fight against supes
Be careful when you fight monsters etc
true although it could have been a bluff
Man tortured a little kid into becoming the worlds most powerful mass murderer and still tries to claim some moral highground when Butcher threatens his family. The audacity of the powerful will never cease to amaze me.
Imagine if vogelbaum still said no and tried to call his bluff. A billy was just like “so be it” and just did what he said he would do.
WTF did he seriously just drive over the grass patch? 😂😂😂
This is a level of pettiness I’ve never seen. 💀
0:14
Alright, for as disgusting as smoking is, that was pretty badass
Now you see why vaping I knew you'd come around
0:20 lmao this guy! 🤣
That sip was so uncomfortably long, what an absolute power move.
Im so used to seeing Voglebam’s actor as Carmine Falcone
Homelander probably applies manifest destiny to supes vs humans now
Wait... did I just see milk being put in before the tea?! As a proud tea drinker that hurts my soul!
The way Butcher shlurps his tea diabolically is the absolute peak of the entire episode 😂
I hope they take away Homelanders powers towards the end of the series…that would be incredible to see him have to deal with being a normal person. That would be better than killing him off I think.
Thatd be awesome. Similiar to Franklin Saints downfall in Snowfall
And Ozai from Avatar
This is the moment I should have seen butchers weakness in the face of the person who caused all his pain he backs off
Rawls has come a long way since accepting he would never be police commissioner in Baltimore.
If you can deal with politics in Baltimore this is child's play in comparison. Even Homelander hides when he hears Omar whistling in the streets.
In the script: *sips tea menacingly*
Karl Urban: '...alright, then' *proceeds to nail it*
His accent may need some work, but his acting is top notch
The beautiful part when a villain plays the role of hero, aint no saint but ain’t no demon. He fights for what he believes and what is right in his mind even if others don’t agree
Homelanders evil deeds brought out an even worse evil in butcher.
Honestly, if they kept him on, I bet even Soldier Boy would've raised Homelander better than this guy did. I know he's no saint, but maybe having a kid to raise would've helped him out as well.
that bombastic side eye is on another level
Of course Homelander is in The Legion.
that long sip and stare. love it😂
Vogelbaum has tungsten balls to clutch pearls after destroying Butcher's life as an afterthought.
hands down the best show i have ever watched.... such perfect casting as well....
Straight across the lawn 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
