    Maeve is easily the best modified character from the source material without being outright, completely changed. Complex and conflicted, layered, multifaceted. She truly is Brave Maeve, precisely because of the fears she faces, unlike her comic book counterpart.

    Maeve was such an awesome reluctant hero. From the very beginning she did what had to be done, even when she didn't want to, always being there when people really needed her -- even while pushing them away. I love her weary, jaded characterization in contrast to someone like Starlight.

  • @drunkeldian3150
    @drunkeldian3150 2 ปีที่แล้ว +44

    In terms of all the trauma the characters go through, I think the most pertinent example for me is the plane scene and how deeply it effects Maeve and defines her arc going forwards. How she goes from someone who begrudgingly goes along with everything Vought does because she's lost all the passion and hope she used to have to fight the good fight, to being so traumatised by that event that she gradually starts opposing Vought more and more, helping Starlight and the boys out in season 2. And ever since the plane scene, besides Butcher I think Maeve is the character who's had the most anger towards Homelander and how the drive to see him fall from grace or die is a big motivator in her helping out since she wants him dead more than anything.

  • @GeneralGrievousCIS
    @GeneralGrievousCIS 2 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    I liked watching Maeve realize she was A LOT stronger relative to Homelander that she had thought she was. She earlier said she thought the best she could do, even with training for months to try to fight him, was "distract" him for a few seconds. She anticipated she would die quickly, like Noir did.
    That moment when she sees she's made him bleed (something no one else on the show had done) and smiles gleefully really hit hard. His look of rage as he realizes, his ego now bruised, that he's vulnerable to someone (also telling he then immediately resorts to heatvision, his go to killing move).
    Maeve was emotionally beaten down for so long in life, mostly by this man himself, that she developed a deep cynicism. That seemed to apply to herself, and her view of her own strength, more than to most things. She underestimated herself completely, and watching her realize that in the fight was awesome. She made Homelander bleed TWICE... she proved to herself that she could hurt him.
    Kripke said that they de-powered Maeve, at a writing level, because they needed Starlight to have some time next season without her Guardian angle there to protect her from Homelander. So her struggle going forward would feel really high risk and like she was truly threatened. If Maeve still had her powers she'd just bail her out again, and it would reduce the tension. He also said we'd be seeing her again though... looking forward to that :)

    I don’t think that last look between Starlight & Maeve was “I wish you didn’t have to do this” I think it was Starlight being apologetic… saying goodbye. She thought it was over, but Maeve was quick-thinking and took out Soldier Boy. That’s why Starlight looked so surprised - she didn’t expect there to be a solution.

    Throughout the show I could see how Maeve is genuinely someone who is selfless and enjoys helping others. There are such people around the world and I like to see myself as one. Maeve probably started out as a genuine heroin. Having to deal with Vought and Homelander and having to go against her instinct and moral for their benefits probably tortured her greatly.
    Also a side note: I don't think Homelander told Maeve to stand back because he thinks she's below him. I think he really didn't want to fight & kill her in his own twisted way.

    Really Homelander isn't that much stronger than some of the others but no one bothered to try and find out because they're too scared but then Soldier boy comes in who is clearly not scared of Homelander and then maeve worked up the courage to fight him. Basically Homelander is not stronger than nuclear bombs like people claim they just think he is

    While Maeve's sacrifice was noble and heartbreaking, it felt as though the writers didn't quite know what to do with her. She was sidelined for most of the latest season, spending most of her onscreen time in jail, until being rescued by Starlight. I wish that they'd utilised her more.

    Ugh Maeve. Always one of my faves. I think the writers could have utilized her more. That being said, this badass went one on one with Homelander for a long time and was pushing him back before she had to air mail Soldier Boy out of the building. Let me tell you, that shove she gave to Homelander before she collected Soldier Boy, I felt that in my soul. It was like, “You’re no longer my priority. I gotta go deal with something right now.”
    You could see Homelander felt that in his face. For Maeve to switch up like, prioritizing something more noble after finally pushing back her abuser and oppressor and sacrificing a golden opportunity to take him down, rare you see something like that that translates so well on screen, and I cheered when I saw it.
    Maeve said, “There are no heroes” but she is one. (Edited for typo)

    I admit after seeing your video on Black Noir (which was excellent by the way) I thought we would not get one on Maeve so let me start by saying just how happy I am to have been wrong.
    For me I really loved that scene when Maeve managed to make Homelander bleed and you saw both reactions, you could taste the sheer shock in Homelander and the absolute elation that Maeve felt. You could tell that whatever happened next, Maeve felt it was worth it just to know that not only could Homelander bleed, she was the one to prove it. I can not imagine how empowering that must have felt since I think we can safely say she has lived in a near constant state of fear of Homelander for the better part of a decade at the very least.
    I confess, I am not sure how Maeve survived her fall but I am willing to put that aside to be happy for her.

    I think a moment that's also worth noting, is when she stabs Homelander in the ear. A) If she'd put it a bit further in she possibly could have flat out killed him but also B) Shows she still thinking and strategizing through all of this, she might not care if she lives or dies but she's smart about doing as much damage as she can. Also follows that she's the only one of the Seven we've actually seen training to fight.

    Homelander's biggest mistake was telling her what he was going to do. You never lead with the worst thing. Then they know you can't go any further.
    It also showed he has no fighting experience due to his power. He is rarely fighting someone on his level.
    Also showed the problem with having too many enemeies. Maeve and Butcher and the others would never have worked together if not for Homelander. She had no time for any of them but they all agreed on one thing. He needed to be taken down. Same with Soldier Boy.

    would you consider this confronting your abuser in maeves case. cause i was watching Crimson Countess and soldier boy relationship and how it really is similar to homelander and maeve. it seems like 2 similar cases of abuse handled in 2 different ways. one confronting and taking them head on and the other hiding and never truly confronting their abuser and sending him off to russia.
    also seems like this entire season has been about bad parenting and how ones bad traits could be passed down.
    when it comes from butcher’s dad treatment of both lenny and billy, and how it translates to Billy’s relationship with ryan. then the other spectrum with soldier boy’s father never being proud of his son, saying he’s a disappointment and instilling this toxic masculinity. this then results into soldier boy’s speech he gave to homelander about being a disappointment was the identical speech his father gave him.
    this whole season really is insane with the cross references of relationships to those around you to.
    should make a video about the parenting aspect and how ones actions affects the child growing up.

    The Homelander is stronger than Queen Maeve, but never underestimate how psychology can level the playing field. Professional fighters know this all too well: the lead up to a fight is just as important as the fight itself. That's why fighters may engage in activities like 'trash talking' or 'posturing'. If you make the other person doubt themselves or loose control over their emotions, you have an advantage.

      I would personally prefer a new story to represent the modern age as LotR was meant as a mythology for Britain and a product of its time. However people liked Lion King which was inspired by MacBeth so there's precedence. I just don't want to see it "rewritten," throwing out the original story. From what I hear exceptional liberties have been taken with adapting the 2nd Age in Amazon's show. I'll reserve judgement until I see it.

    The scene of Queen Maeve fight with Homelander doesn't make any sense at all, specially because she was captured by Black Noir and putted in that jail. Black Noir was easily killed by Homelander, but Queen Maeve was able to fight him in the same level? Not even Soldier Boy fought in the same level as Queen Maeve did. And Black Noir was really scared of Soldier Boy.

    Being blind in one eye, (not from a thumb thankfully...) any scene that involves trauma to eyes always makes me cringe. As for Maeve's fight, it was exceptionally brutal but I do wonder what would be the greater sacrifice for a Super. Losing their power or losing their life. I found myself wondering if Maeve losing her powers and not her life would be viewed as a lesser or greater sacrifice. I was sort of shocked when she turned up at the end albeit very beaten, bruised and maimed. Did the show writers take the "easy route" in keeping her alive?

    So this is super off topic but I found this video from an episode of a show I used to watch called New Amsterdam. It's about the sister of a patient and how she might be a psychopath because she's the one who intentionally put her brother in the hospital. The psychologist that works there is having a one on one session with her to help her understand what she did and how she can improve. I think you'll really like it and I'd love to hear your thoughts about it. Especially since you've done a reaction to child psychopath Henry Creel.

    Hi there. Your commentary is interesting, so this isn't against you. However, I have a REAL opposition to "The Boys" franchise. In the interest of full disclosure, after reading much of one of the early books, I was so disgusted that I refused to view anything else (book or video) directly. So take me with a grain of salt. However, I admit that. Also, while I don't watch the show, I also don't watch or read the materials that are critical of it. After my initial exposure to the first book, I relied on the videos and writings of FANS of the show and books. What they describe, in a praising way, sounds like such a cynical celebration of violence and depravity, created by folks who sincerely HATE the concept of superheroes and heroism in general, that I think the creators of "The Boys" books and TV series have some SERIOUS psychological issues. Could you do a take RE the bitter cynicism of the creators of this series who seem to hate the idea of real heroes so much? I really see such cynicism as a MAJOR problem in our society.

    • @GeorgiaDow
      @GeorgiaDow  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I think that their take is that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. So I think they are wondering what would happen if people could have that much power and have to deal with that struggle. Now I fully agree that cynicism is a bad trait of society and I fully can understand how its something you avoid. I think this video sees the hope in the show though = )

      and you can be morally offended... that is up to you.
      but i think the violence in the story telling also allows a different tone of story to be told. for instance, band of brothers is limited series about world war 2. and arent all war movies essentially glorifying violence?
      do we need a specific tribe against tribe for displays of violence to be justified in ones mind?
      does the depiction and celebration of violence make an individual feel threatened? concerned?

    The basic concept at first is this: The New Jersey mobboss/Don of New Jersey Anthony Soprano starts getting panic attcks & passes out. Now this is an obvious sign of weakness that cannot be tolerated in the Cosa Nostra..."This thing of ours"
    So to help this Tony goes to visit a Real Therapist Dr. Melfi.
    It is a long show yes. Yet still very popular. It is by many considered one of the best TV -shows ever made. I mean personally I would love to hear your analysis of many of these characters. From tonys kids to his drug addict nephew, his Consigliary Silvio...It is as mentioned above all framed(at least for the first 3 seasons) via Anthony going to therapy.
