I bursted out laughing when Peacemaker got into the argument with the old man and called Batman a pussy.
So many people are legit furious about that, despite the fact that it's.... yaknow.... Peacemaker saying it.
That scene where Peacemaker calls out Batman’s bullshit over his moral was out right genius and put a smile on my face. I hate die hard, dickriding Batmna fans that won’t admit his flaws and think he’s a perfect superhero with no problems in his life’s work. Still one of my favorite TV series scene of all time.
@@RalphJr-xp3hp I've always thought Batman was more or less defined by his flaws, a perfect superhero is super boring.
@@jonfernandez4271 I mean yeah.... his method of coping with the murder of his parents is a bit extreme and not what you'd call healthy in the real world.
@@RalphJr-xp3hp You aren’t really a die hard Batman fan if you can’t admit he has flaws. That’s like the whole point. He 100% should snap the Joker’s neck but he will never do it because he doesn’t trust himself. Those people are just being ridiculous.
The moments were peacemaker is alone and he just let's the mask fall is the best moments for me
Yeah mine too
Ye
Yeah. When Peacemaker is alone he's Chris Smith. He's scared and lonely.
Hit me up ever if you need to talk. No judgment ever.
That "monster" music sequence in episode 6 was absolutely demented and intense! So scared for what's coming next
Absolutely agreed. Instantly was added to my playlist hehe. I felt nothing was gonna top the scene of Vigilante walking down the prison corridor
What band sings that song?
@@wisconsinking323 Reckless love is the name of the band
Facts I’m over here thinking maybe the starfish isn’t that bad 😅 at least the takeover is instant
It was terrifying
"he's dumb, but he's smart enough to know that he's dumb. hes just smart enough to realize each and every flaw and problem in his life, but he isn't smart enough to make better choices, or to find solutions" that hit hard man, deserves a sub from me honestly.
Well said
if you are smart enough to realise that you are dumb, you are wiser than most.
Felt like bro was describing me💀😭🙏
The MCU might be dominant in theaters but DC is killing it on the small screen. Peacemaker may be the best yet.
Only marvel show better than ur is daredevil
Snehil Shrey not anymore they are lmaoo Soy Chi and the legend of the ten bracelets and Woketernals lost them allot of money and Spiderman is 80% a sony movie
@@Zero-jt3bs no lol
@@Zero-jt3bs shang chi made more money than any dc moving even eternals did
@@Zero-jt3bs While Eternals and Shang Chi weren’t as huge as other movies in the past they definitely did not flop
Between Peacemaker and Doom Patrol, there’s something about DC shows with extremely flawed characters that is just fantastic, they just get it right and know how to hit you in the feels
And I think Harley is somewhere there too
Peacemaker and robotman would make the best duo
@@sigmoidsharer3012 Harley is hit or miss for me but I still come back so it's doing something right
As a comics fan and a wrestling fan, I need to give Peacemaker a watch (especially because I'm a Cena fan).
Watch the suicide squad first so you see how his story begins
Yeah me too! I like that episode where he denied Taiwan as county to appease China. Riveting stuff. As a wrestler fan you know how each wrestler has do a heel turn. Like Stone Cold Steve Austin. And what better Heel turn than have the guy who used the image and ideals of American troops for their wrestling persona to all of sudden betray those aspects for that money. Great writing. Capitalism at its finest.
In all fairness I don't think he is a bad guy. And I don't condemn people for liking him. He is just weak and I don't respect him. I don't even dislike him. I can understand why he submitted but I don't like that he did. He is a nothing and a nobody to me after those actions. And he always will be unless he does something super big and heroic. I doubt that will happen.
I know how it is. I was a huge Jackie Chan Fan. Still am for his past movies but I can't watch anything new with him in it. I do want to watch this show still. If it comes out on Blu-ray I'll get it. Not subscribing to anymore of these streaming services.
@@unemptysoul how to say nothing in 3 paragraphs
@@kyriakoschrist How to be nothing with a reply.
@@unemptysoul goddamn bruh you just killed me there. Go cry about John cena and leave us alone please. Thank you
What I really like most about this show is the small setting. It’s not some major city like metropolis or Gotham, it’s just some small unsuspecting town, with people going about their lives.
Funny you say that cause it's clearly shot in BC's lower mainland. Which is also where "Gotham" for Batwoman and Metropolis .9:51 is the most obvious with Brian Jessel BMW's tower.
@@NEEDbacon Don't say stupid things.
Aaaaand this is how you tackle toxic masculinity in fiction.
They built this character for an entire movie and half a TV show as this super macho ultra muscular dude with his oversize magnum going around talking about how many people he killed, and calling women "sugar tits"...only for him to slowly starting to admit he doesnt like killing people, he can actually fall in love, and does "feminine" things like playing the piano, because the whole "Peacemaker" persona is a mask he created by trying to please his abusive dad.
Would love to see Hollywood learning a thing or two from this show, but I know they wont, and they will think the show is a hit because of the violence and the dick jokes (and yes, as with all James Gunn works, violence and dick jokes are part of the package that makes them work, but they are so much more than just that).
Actually there are plenty of examples of toxic masculanity portrayed in fiction done right. Predator, Fight Club, Doom Patrol, The Punishet in general, Netflix Daredevil, Full Metal Jacket, Fist of the North Star, Day of the Dead, First Blood have all basically critiquied that idea in some form before Peacemaker.
@@BigK13372 I never said Peacemaker is the first, I said they are doing it right while 99% of movies/show released in the last few years are doing it wrong.
And Fight Club is *the* movie about toxic masculinity.
@@Jose-se9pu Yeah that statistic seems fabricated especially if we consider the sample size for shows and movies that actually tackle such subject.
Plus my point was to show that honestly Peacemaker isn’t really rare breed, especially as there have been shows similar to it in recent years that did that (again Doom Patrol, Punisher, and Daredevil).
@@BigK13372 I don't really think you can some up fight club with the whole toxic masculinity thing. It's rather a show about men without purpose or fulfillment in their lives hoping and flicking to where they can find it and at the same time release the stress of our mundane sensitized capitalist lives.
@@colesteenkamp5133 Yeah that does sound like toxic masculanity. As the key thing with that is the repression of emotion and not being able to express said feelings which often lead to self-destructive live style/choices.
That’s pretty much how Fight Club can be interpreted what with a bunch of white collar men beating the shit out of each other to relied stress
It's the Best DC show we've had in years 100%
Besides Doom Patrol
Superman & Lois is brilliant as well.
Harley Quinn: am I a joke to you?
Lets just agree dc streaming shows are good and better than marvels, not that those are bad but dc’s are better
@@BigK13372 oh man I just got into doom patrol from needing more after watching this and I'm hooked on that now too
swear to god John Cena plays it too well as Peacemaker
I can't even recognise that's him after couples of episodes
He actually fucking got me with that John Cena bit
5:42 why did I expect him to actually be there lmao
I love how Gunn switched out a Nazi for a Neo-Klansman. Good way to contemporize. Also love how the dad continues to gaslight him. Finally, I enjoy the commentary. Why are these old guy anti-wokes angry over the gender revolution? Back in the day, their idols were guys unafraid of being women. I've said that and the show now as well.
Peacemaker actually mentions this in the first episode, he is finally starting to openly admit the whole "super macho" thing was forced by his abusive father, and he has hidden things like playing the piano because they are considered "feminine".
Peacemaker reminds me a lot of The Comedian from WATCHMEN. Their physiques, their careers, their attitudes, and their inner conflicts seem so very similar.
@@Jose-se9pu The piano is a masculine instrument.
@@SeasideDetective2 The Comedian is based on Peacemaker. Did you really not know that?
@@alphanerd7221 No, I didn't!
other comic book directors: we created these groups to represent white supremacists and illegal aliens as a metaphor
james gunn: metaphor??
It does a really good job of keeping you invested while making fun of both woke and non woke fans. It's politically correct and politically incorrect at the same time. It's like Archer but with John Cena and aliens.
I see you’re point, but sometimes I think this show asks questions and gives points of views but isn’t outright woke. There are some moments that seem woke though like the straight white male line in one of the recent episodes of Peacemaker.
@@bendu8282 it delivers social commentary but not enough to where it sounds preachy and forced.
@@madmanwebster94 Yeah it makes you think instead of just pushing it’s believes down your throat like most woke stuff does. It also doesn’t follow your average woke tropes everyone is flawed in this show and no one is given special treatment based on their race, sex, etc.
@@bendu8282 Are you sure? Cause I am pretty sure its anti white supremiscist message wasn’t at all subtle and hits the viewer in the head like Triple H’s sledgehammer/shovel.
@@BigK13372 there was more to establishing that Peacemaker’s father and his followers were bad then just racism, it showed how they act, how they treat other people and how their destructive ways can harm others. There is more to the topic in this show then screaming racism bad, there is also the fact that the show’s focus is mainly on the characters and their bond as well as there obstacles and challenges. I also said nothing about subtly in my last comment but showing anti racist ideas in a show doesn’t make it automatically woke, wokeness is a propaganda extreme where you’re virtuous until proven racist, at least the kind of “racism” that offends the modern crowd. The difference between woke writers and actual writers is that with actual writers there is more to any topic then just pushing modern propaganda 247 in the throats of the audience whether visually or in dialogue to get across a message. The main focus of entertainment with actual writers is also on characters and the story with any potential message if there is any to play secondary to the entertainment. A better approach to writing or telling any story with a message is to really think about it. There is also the fact entertainment needs to be front and center if it isn’t it would fail, subtly is a method that is used so that entertainment is the primary focus of a tv show but even if a message isn’t subtle entertainment needs to be the key main factor of a movie , book game, or show in order for it to work. Otherwise no one will enjoy it.
I'd like to say I've been a fan of the invisible man. (John cena) since late 2003. Glad he's getting love and showing the world his chops
Exactly cena showed his acting skills very well👍👍
It's so great. Just incredibly high quality. Also wait. When did they clarify that the show is set four years in the future? The line about being laid up in the hospital for months made me think it's set a few months after The Suicide Squad.
Yeah, I think he mistook "years" with "months"
I think V was confused, in the show is stated that peacemaker spent 4 years in prison and some months in the hospital. My guess is those 4 years were previous to the events of the suicide squad movie.
@@eldennub This totally makes sense. That’s how I took it, that when he discusses being away for four years, he’s talking about being in prison before The Suicide Squad. Easy mistake to make.
John Cena shines in this role. he fits it like a damn shoe
Pretty sure he meant that he doesn't react to emotional stimulus like others do, not that he was lacking emotions. He was clearly upset over Peaceamaker not spilling to save him, and he thought it was cute that Dye Beard wanted the man and monkey to be friends. He expressed happiness and sadness as well. Just not at the times others would.
i think he meant what he said, but what he said is still not true lol
I hate it when people give kids the excuses oh they’re just kids let it go!
If there is no change in that child’s childhood, male or female! They will continue to be that same person in their teenage years.. And when they get to adulthood it’s your decision to cast them out of your life entirely. We are the people we are today because of our childhood. And sometimes people out there never got healing or help! And their mindset develop into the same direction their entire life.
Cena has totally won me over in this role. Just perfect casting.
This show is incredible. Love it... Deadpool level.
Kind of makes me wish Gunn would work on Deadpool.
Any wishlist for next James Gunn Suicide Squad spin off??
For me it could be Bloodsport & Ratcatcher team up. It would be nice to present a certain "Leon" like story of assassin and innocent girl next to him, while being partly parodied.
Ratcatcher II has killed a whole bunch of people with her rats, I'd hardly classify her as innocent in any regard.
Fun Fact: When Peacemaker was naming all the people they could have framed instead of his dad, every single name was rapid fire improvised by John Cena
5:33 that was quite an interview. props to you!
So far this is the best superhero serial. it's funny and subverts so many expectations. it's actually less of a superhero film but almost a comedy and character exploration series.
I really wanted to like the Marvel stuff but there was so many filler and political agendas that the story is sacrificed. DC series started OK but it just went downhill fast. Teens Titans I hated with a passion.
What I really hope is that we explore how Amanda IS different from Auggie. As cold a bitch as Amanda Waller has always been, she loves her family unconditionally. It’s one of the things I love about her because it humanizes The Wall as a character. If there is a season 2, I hope that gets explored.
I can’t believe you got John Cena to come on the show! Great video
If DC somehow pisses off the CCP, now they can have John Cena to Apologize in Chinese.
You got me. You got me with the empty chair... it took a sec. Well played Vee... well played...
Both Peacemaker & Judomaster were from Charlton Comics & later bought by DC Comics. I believe this is the 2nd version of Judomaster (who is also the son of the 1st original version), if it turns out that he's gay then it's definitely the 2nd version since he was also gay in the comics. I wouldn't be suprised if the actor is gay himself since he has a really feminine voice & in some pics he's dressed in clothes a gay guy would pic for a straight friend 😜 I'm just taking a wild guess here.
Peacemaker has some of the best character writing.
This show is just perfect. It's so much better than I thought it'd be. And its definitely one of my favorite superhero shows in recent times. Which I didn't think I'd say about a dceu project.
Can't believe you got john Cena for this wow!!
Its so hilarious yet serious. I really love Vigilante and Peacemakers friendship lol. And that intro 🔥
The banter between peacemaker and vigilante is gold and I can’t get enough of the opening credits/dance is awesome
I'm a fucking stud. Keep making these vids. Love ya
I slept on this show initially but after giving it a chance out of boredom I was hooked and I absolutely love this show. But unfortunately the bittersweetness I felt from The Suicide Squad carried over here. And that bitter sweetness is, yes its really good and I enjoy it. But it's sad how we DC fans can't seem to get the superheros from our childhoods brought to life properly. Rated R gore sex and excessive cursing shouldn't belong in our main DC universe that's just wrong. But it is what it is and I love this show.
Dc is a giant world of gods, vigilantes,aliens and magic. I like that it has several different tones
@@thomasjohnson1885
I can deal with different tones.. I don't like how absolutely different the tones are. Not only is it a tonal whiplash but its confusing and inconsistent. DC needs the MCU formula. And just like the MCU it can have different tones.
@@dungeon-wn4gw - That's not a popular idea, but ti each their own...
There are some great films in the MCU, plus good shows like "Daredevil" an the first season of "Jessica Jones"
There are also some excellent DC live action shows _right now_ like "Doom Patrol", "Superman & Lois", or "Stargirl" that don't have much in term of nudity, excessive cursing ("Titans" do like to swear though, season 4 looks fun for now, good casting & charas brought in) and gory scenes, but are still high quality tier.
The "Watchmen" show from a couple years back was also a really solid season from DC.
We've had an are of relatively good natured DC, like the Christopher Reeves Superman movies, "Superman: TAS", Justice League/Justice League Unlimited, Smallville, The Flash tv shows (the 1990 & 2014+ ones) etc...
But it's always been balanced by Batman, which had the pretty grim first 2 Tim Burton movies, the graphically safe but pretty serious at times Batman:TAS, and the Nolan movies trilogy had some grim moments and a not very "happy feelings" atmosphere.
The Watchmen movie was another good example of more serious DC...
Recently we've gotten "Man of Steel" or Wonder Woman & even the "JL:Snyder Cut" don't have excessive gore and cursing and sex, so it seems like whatever you liked as a kid, there's probably already a good adaptation of that
@@dungeon-wn4gw lol no, not even the MCU needs the MCU formula. They need to finally step out of it and make non-boring movies
@@dungeon-wn4gw eh? A movie called the SUICIDE squad should not have gore? Get outta here. We have tonnes of movies like you're referring to. Variety.
Am I the only one who immediately thought of the joker after seeing sheriff Locke smiling
And am I the only one who's likening Peacemaker to Harley Quinn? Both Suicide Squad members are "attached to someone who's completely disconnected" from them.
Vigilante steals the show for me! Dudes is brilliant and by far my favorite part of the show.
I knew I couldn’t get through this video without a “you can’t see me” joke.
Also, I’m a fuckin’ stud!
Without James Gunn the DC universe movies would be in a dark place! Or the material without him! 😔💙
I still want you to watch Doom Patrol.
Am i the only one who felt bad for the chinese officer Sofía? :( I wanted her to be friend of peacemaker or something
I felt bad too. I liked her. I thought she'd eventually figure out what was going on and join the team. Sad that she's gone.
Peacemaker is a very refreshing tv show. It makes fun of everything and doesn't shy away from anything. Haven't seen such a show recently which is why it is getting so much love from fans.
I wasn't excited at all for the show but after the first episode, I was hooked and wait every Thursday like a kid
if anyone hate vigilante then you are just a bad person. he is funny, the acting is great and he kicks ass. he is perfect for someone like peacemaker to be friends with and they play off each other so well and james gunn wrote him perfect while the actor played him perfect too.
5:32 BEST INTERVIEW EVER!!!
"im a fucking stud"
I’m not against the reviews but don’t you think you should wait until the show is done to make them
I absolutely love Vigilante in this show and his actor is phenomenal in the role
I can't believe you had John Cena on your channel!!!!!
Anyone else think that Peacemaker's brother is alive and Is a butterfly? I also think we will get an after credit scene after the last episode revealing that Rick Flag is somehow alive. These are VERY far out theories but this is a show about D level super heroes and alien butterflies...
I love how your title of the vid used “dope af”, which is exactly what Peacemaker described when it comes to people showing off
@16:09 man whenever peacemaker starts bad mouthing known big heroes I can’t help but bust out laughing it comes out of no where and you can tell peacemaker really believes what he said
Vigilante was the best thing to come from this show XD
I agree. I love him ❤️
No one likes a show off.
Unless what they’re showing off is dope AF.
F. Thats right.
I see peacemaker as a child who never got to grow up, I think they're gonna kill off Harcourt to make peacemaker grow up and be who he wants to be.
I like how peacemaker actually smokes weed 😂
I just like the fact that they don’t hold back with the racism nd curse, they just give you how it should be,
What? Positivity from #VEEINFUSO??!! whats next? Are you gumma say friendship is.magoc was an.undertated gem?
James Gunn creates and handles characters perfectly!
I mean he made us sympathize with a giant freaking starfish with just one sentence!
I’m a fucking stud so hopefully you read this. Can you do a video on scene with the old neighbor where he criticizes Batman for not killing his enemy. I feel like this is a common argument especially with someone like the joker.
LMAO I GOT THE INTERVIEW JOKE
You have THE BEST outro ever
Confirmed Peacemaker is the greatest hero in DC comics
Because I’ve seen Arrow, Flash, Supergirl, Batwomen, Gotham and they are all gay
This show does NOT take place four years into the future, it happens directly after the events of The Suicide Squad. Peacemaker is just getting out of the hospital. I takes place a bit more than four years after he went to prison, and so does The Suicide Squad.
Leota IS NOT trying to live up to her mother's vision.
She is FORCED to pretend that she is by her financial situation.
She doesn't want it. She doesn't like it. She wishes she didn't have to do it.
I watched the 5 first episodes of Peacemaker before watching the movie suicide squad. I felt like Cena was wasted in Suicide Squad and I didnt liked the movie like the PeaceMaker. It's probably studio interferences that made me not like suicide squad since I really enjoy PM...
Show is a joke. Goofy and silly. Ok for a series. But I hope DC doesn't make everything with college humore
Vigilante is a psychopath with a code, not a sociopath. Psychopaths are born, methodical and don't feel shame or anxiety. Sociopaths are built by circumstances, usually growing in a dangerous environment, they can be cured through therapy while psychopaths can't. They tend to have explosive wrath that makes them do unplanned violence and have disordered emotions. Psychopath don,t have empathy, while sociopaths try desperately to suppress it.
Looking forward to that John Cena interview
The show isn’t set “4 years in the future.” You are confusing the time line of his prison sentence with the time period between the events of The Suicide Squad and the events of the series. He had served nearly 4 years in prison by the time of the start of The Suicide Squad. We first see him on screen emerge FROM A PRISON CELL. When the season starts he is in a hospital recovery from his injuries incurred from the events of the film. They mention his recovery took only a few months. The series is set more or less today.
“If you’re a children, piss off!”
Liked, comment, subscribed.
You are allowed to criticize the White Dragon. Just because he's a white supremacist doesn't give him a pass on not being a real character. It's just lazy and cowardly. Even the most evil people have something that could make us relate to them.
This show is better than the marvel shows
Honestly one of the funniest shows I ever watched
Can you review Batman the audio adventures it’s The most underrated Batman property of all time it’s on HBO nobody talks about
WHen I first saw his costume/look, I thought he was Orion, Darkseid's son.
It is most certainly not hard to tell where the line is with Vigilante.
He will tell you, or show you, at a moments notice.
The only exception is Peacemaker.
His hero worship of Peacemaker does make him ignore his code.
I'm shocked that you could get an interview from John Cena himself
one of my favorite gags in the show was when peacemaker offered vigilante some weed and he said "you know three years ago I woulda killed you for that. I can't believe they legalized that shit" lmao
Doom patrol is my shit but peacemaker mos def is the best dc show. DC needs to chill with the joker glad the new batman doesn't have him he's low key killing dc
dang, I remember how mad I was when he betrayed the squad. now I'm hyped up and couldn't wait for season 2.
How about a comparison between the show & Peacemaker's comic self?
This is more of a miniseries, but there has been talks about a possible 2nd season & if it does get one then it's officially a TV-show. Yeah go for it, this was a great analyze video & would like to see more Peacemaker related videos whether it's about the last two episodes or maybe even a difference video between the TV-show & the comic version of some of the characters.
Why didn't you show any of peacemaker himself in this video?
I'm a fucking stud!
I really am enjoying this show.
Well I think he a lame ass character but the show was better than most marvel shows... Minus daredevil an punisher shows on Netflix season two of daredevil some the best marvel made
You AF !
Who was the guy who picked up his father in the truck he looked familiar ASF
YESSSSS! MORE PEACEMAKER! 🤭
You had me at 5:20 🤣🤣🤣
everybody loves dyebeard, jamil & the neighbor (who is not given a name, for some reason)
You know and I heard him say that vigilante is under educated but then in a way he's like really smart too I mean when you listen to him he'll say some real stupid stuff but then like he was able just to look at his dad's armors like pinpoint its weak points so yeah that
If we learned everything from the Joker it’s that the more sad and depressing your life is, the goofier you get
they killed Murn, my 2nd favorite character.
I barely enjoyed Suicide Squad but this show is a golden goose.
Why do you keep saying the show happened before the suicide squad when it's what happened after it
