      This is meant to reflect today's society.. one in which we've seen, for example, parents make the decision - for the child - to transition... personified in Jordan Li.
      The catch 22 to that argument could be as Jordan said, "I do have a gift." (I think it was the dinner scene)... well, that "gift" was not Jordan's decision.. rather, a product of the manipulative ways of the parents.. in turn, it's obvious that Jordan's dad has a problem with it..
      A vicious circle that can only be ended with THE truth... not A truth.. i think the same could be said of the overall plot of The Boys.

      andre's power is also "metal bending" i.e. a specific telekinesis that only works on metals, like magneto. he also inherited that power from his dad polarity.
      plain telekinesis without qualifiers tends to imply the ability to manipulate any object metal or not.

Imagine how GOATed Ryan and other natural born Sups are gonna be. Meanwhile Cate gets knocked out using her powers on Normal humans. Golden Boy was in a whole lot of Pain while Flying (you can see him Clench his teeth and eyes) so I don’t think he can fly or use his powers for all that Long.

    Since Jordan’s original form was male-presenting, they’re probably feminine non-binary. In this, they’re probably the only character whose parents actually gave them a gift. It’s also likely meaningful the the female form is actively strong, and the male-presenting one is their defensive posture.

    legit, most universities do not allow open windows on upper-floors to prevent self-harm, they also put a red dot on large panes so no one walks through or hits glass thinking there's nothing there.

    • @francorodriguez-vr8ri
      @francorodriguez-vr8ri ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I’d imagine the spinal tapping could range from testing his regenerative capabilities or extracting his DNA, DNA that could be used to help create a clone of Luke like theorized.
      Imagine if it turns out that they were creating some kind of super clone of Luke with not just his powers but all the powers of those at the Woods, including that person’s laser vision which would explain that scene of Luke’s eyes lighting up like he’s about to use laser vision when his eyes flowed differently just as a sign of using his powers.
      Hell, if this is true it could be Vought’s way to create a new better Homelander, one powerful enough to get rid of the original and in case Ryan turns out to be as bad as his father. It would make sense with Brink’s line about being ‘better than Homelander’ and why he was marketed so much.

    • @wordsworthstone
      @wordsworthstone ปีที่แล้ว +1

      i guess we shouldn't stick to hard science for the show considering the satirical take on superhero stories, just can get DNA from hair or spit or any other cell. spinal taps are for cerebrospinal fluid, like tests for meningitis or other things related to central nervous system. maybe they were testing adding extra powers on sam and the lumbar puncture was for confirmation.
      but yea, that trailer is nuts. did they do a switcharoo or something cuz i can't understand why he would unalive himself if he wants to save his brother...seems like a die trying deal. obviously didn't understand the assignment. or maybe he can reconstitute himself, god-like with laser eyes.

      As for why Luke did was he did, maybe he thought after he freaked out in public they would have locked his ass up, probably in Woods, and he would never be able to help Sam so going boom and trusted Andre to save his brother for him. Plus, as schizophrenia is hereditary maybe Luke wasn’t fully thinking straight as the characters themselves speculated.

    My theory is that Sams gift is not only that he can enter other peoples minds, but also that he can do it without eye contact. Mindstorm used to be one of the most powerful supes of payback and also wen't schizophrenic at some point. He had the luck that he only entered ones mind, once he made eye contact, meaning he can only enter one mind at a time. Sam however doesn't seem to have that limitation. He can project himself without real limits. That makes him extremely useful for Vought, since he pretty much can mind control anyone, without even being close to them, maybe even multiple people at once, if he could control his powers. Fir him of course it drives him insane, since he picks up on multiple minds at once, without being able to just live in silence for a bit. He mentions how they don't think he pays attention to the codes, but he does. This implies that he can spy on the guards as they pass through each door. Maybe the experiments are attempts to control his power and pretty much make him just a vessel for voughts plans. Mind control, spying ect. The only problem vought has is that he is invulnerable, and extremely strong, so that makes it harder to contain him. Thats why they need him to make emotional bonds with people that vought can kill, to use the pressure to make him more obediant.

Her face while covered in golden boys blood was one of anger and hatred, since he was doing drugs and breaking rules. Trying to leave an innocent to die from their fault to which she was to take the fall for breaking the rules.
    Marie is so set to be one of the 7 showing she is the best, and clean out bad guys and corruption to prove to her sister she isn’t a monster.

    What i love about the boys is the fact it really fleshes out the storyline and makes the characters relatable like yes they are superhuman but they never asked for this and they have been controlled and manipulated that there all a bunch of traumatized young adults with teenager mentalities they really were never truly loved and the parents definitely contributed to all their problems but no its on top for me because even though its a show about superheroes the emotions the characters feel are also very human and no amount of powers can make them escape that. Utterly brilliant story writing and i love the themes that both of these shows display ❤
