Superheroes are often as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians, and sometimes even as revered as gods. But that's when they're using their powers for good. What happens when the heroes go rogue and start abusing their powers? When it's the powerless against the super powerful, the Boys head out on a heroic quest to expose the truth about the Seven and Vought, the multibillion-dollar conglomerate that manages the superheroes and covers up their dirty secrets. Based on the comic book series of the same name. - Фільми й анімація
You can tell how lazy he's gotten with his fighting. It's been so long since he's been challenged, he resolves every fight by just looking at the bad guy
Is it just me or did he kill hostages that were just trying to escape?
I don’t think there were any hostages, just a whole ring of drug dealers
@@carsonwood3041 he did 💀!?.. show me the timeline
@@Bertmon1872 1:27
He's not just lazy but sloppy. When Superman (DC) or Cyclops (Marvel) use their eyebeams, they are precise down to the centimeter for what they want to do. Homelander constantly over or undershoots targets leading to the scoring all over the place.
When you're in late game in Elden ring and found a low level area you forgot to explore
😂😂😂
Basically season 1 and 2 homelander in a nutshell
exactly 😄
Or getting revenge on the lobsters plaguing Liurnia rather than just running from them?
Too funny I just got started in Elden Ring
imagine being a criminal in this universe 💀
It doesn't make any different
Unless if you have super powers
Homelander is a criminal, and he feels himself just fine)
@@ntinosaggelopoulos6718depends on the crime, if its like terrorists the seven always come to execute them
Very easy, Supes are criminals
That smile at 1:54 as he crushed the guys head. It's so nice to see people enjoying what they do
🤣
Ayo?! 💀😂
When you love what you do, never stop doing it, wise old man once told me that
Very few of us get to work a job we're passionate about
Wholesome vibes
American who served in Syria here, I can confirm homelander came down from the sky and eyelazered everyone in that building
So ur happy invading others country to destroy their ?
"Served"
@@iankummer What's your problem? This guy, regardless of whether you approve of the war, risked his life and served his country.
@@CMT_Crabbles and why should I care?
@@iankummer for second there I just thought the word 'served' should be capitalized
I'm not usually a fan of low-light scenes, but it actually works really well with this scene. When most of what you can see is Homelander's glowing eyes, and occasionally being lit up by bullets that just bounce right off him, it really sells him as this malevolent and almost unstoppable force. The music too, when you hear him being referred to as a boogeyman.
Those demon eyes are insane.
It’s very Darth Vader at times
@@humanwavetactic2668more like reverse flash eyes
I'm disappointed that we haven't seen a scene where his eyes are glowing in the dark since this.
It's kinda funny, because the song itself is talking about boogey men (men who like to boogey). Rock The Casbah by The Clash. I assume this is a Syrian cover of that song.
You can see the subtle terror in the soldiers when they saw Homelander kill these guys.
Yes, I see the subtle terror in the subtle, too. 😏
USAF 2W2 and 2W1 here. That was a bit of fiction. Almost all of them wouldn't be reacting this way. He did their job efficiently due to being a God.
@@janus3555 efficient? Homelander caused a whole lot of collateral damage with a lot of his missions, he's a loose cannon
@@mohammedsarker5756 Superman technically caused more damage, death and destruction in Man of Steel. Most Super Heroes have as well.
Targeting him primarily because you don't like him, or you're envious means nothing.
Yeah because they know that if Homelander wanted to kill them that they couldn’t do anything to prevent it.
These guys trained for this mission and crept through muck and darkness for who knows how long, just to wait outside and listen to terror go on in the building caused by someone who had not a care for any of them besides peddling the compund v
Well I bet this is still better option for them then actually go there and risk being wounded or killed
@@Afdog this might be a foreign concept to you, but these guys actually would've probably been disappointed to not get to conduct their mission. Trust me, I'm a combat vet. Soldiers, especially special operations, genuinely enjoy doing stuff like this.
@@real_reZmi so if you go on a dangerous mission you may be killed but in the last moment they tell you that you’re not needed there you would’ve been genuinely disappointed? Huh, indeed, never thought about that
@@Afdog may sound crazy to those who haven't been in combat arms, but it's true.
@@real_reZmi that’s indeed sound crazy, as I can relate with the situation when people are ready to take risks for something bigger, but if that’s not needed than I don’t really get it
But you’re correct - I wasn’t in direct combat so I don’t have such experience and don’t know what these guys feeling. But despite their feeling - it’s still better option as the mission is completed and they completely avoided any casualties, right?
Lasering feet then stepping on the head is probably gonna be his fatality in mortal Kombat
That's actually a really cool idea
His other one is simply staring into their eyes as he lasers through and just crushes the head
Huh? Homelander in Mortal Kombat?
@@JohnDoe-id5ihhomelander was leaked to come to mortal kombat 1
@@lifeisberserk9566 isnt that just Kano's fatality?
Love how even the Soldiers are genuinely disturbed by Homelander, they don’t cheer or praise him for his violence, they simply look at him with fear and disgust but his ego is so big that he can’t even see the genuine disgust those soldiers had in that moment for him.
Not only that but this operation probably took weeks to plan and prepare all just to end in some dude with powers blue balling you by doing your job. Imagine training for a fight for months on end and then at the last moment they bring in Mike Tyson to fight for you
Homes probably knew, he could probably tell by the smell of their sweat or their heartbeat or something
I think he just didn't care. He clearly has a penchant for scaring people shitless
Crazy you say that because those soldiers were just about to do the exact same thing to those people inside, kill them and whatnot so idk why they have the luxury to be horrified.
@@tomotomi2182 because for them it would've been self-defense. Homelander murders those who can't even physically hurt him, Therefore it is NOT self-defense in his case. He even goes out his way to cut two fleeing women down with his lasers. At the end he bisects a man he could have apprehended and let the soldiers interrogate. They just recognize that he is a genuine psychopath.
@@cyr2097 You're so clueless. They attacked Homelander first like idiots, grabbed their guns and started shooting despite knowing that they couldn't do anything, it was their fault to begin with so everything he did to them was self defense no matter how strong Homelander is, you don't lose your right to self defense just because you're a superhero. Oh and for your information Homelander has a lot of sociopathic qualities and not psychopathic, so get your facts straight because you can clearly see that he's not a psycho if you have a shred of knowledge on that stuff.
Homelander clearly acted in self defense
self defense is only valid if someone poses a threat. If a 2 year old hits me so I slam him onto the pavement as hard as I can I'm going to jail for aggravated assault, child abuse and murder
@@YannisKarageorgiou I very much enjoyed visualizing that in my head so thank you

2:18 The writing on the wall says "Homelander is racist"😂
lmao nice
How that's possible, he hate everyone equally
@@professorflash3278 he loves himself more than anything considering he is white he can't see anything beautiful in something non-white so yeah he is a racist
@@professorflash3278The thing is, he doesn’t. Also, no one does . 🤡 momento.
in the woke universe every white man is racist
No fighting skills and no hardwork whatsoever
Homelander simply breaks in and kills out simply by staring into the enemy
works for me
and thats is why he almost died twice in season 3,,when he had to fight solider boy and suerum Butcher...
@@FULANODETALh its mentioned that soldier boy is almost as strong as homelander
yet homelander destroyed both in a 1v2 until hughie arrived to help, they still got overpowered and homelander successfully fled without a single blood on him just a punch mark
this shows how strong HL is
Also "no fighting skills" yall didnt see him fight? it was pretty good maeve vs him and him on a 1v3 at episode 6
This no fighting skills stuff is getting old since more people keeps seeing what happened to homelander in the lab, he was fighting people stronger than him
@@jamaltyrone69 indeed Homelander is really powerful and has some good fighting skills
@@jamaltyrone69 my friend, soldier boy kicked his ass before butcher because he is the only hero that vought actually TRAINED.
1:25 I love when we can just see Homelander's eyes glowing in red in the dark.
Boogeyman!!
That pair of glowing red eyes in the dark is a visual tip off to the audience that this right here is a good guy.
I love the way the dark accentuates the red eyes. He legit looks like a demon at 1:18
It looks badass as hell too.
Homelander wouldn't dare pass up the opportunity to murder 50 people legally.
I love how none of the soldiers are buying homelander's superhero facade. They see him for what he truly is, a monster.
They see him as a monster yet they were gonna do the exact same thing he did? How does that make sense?
@@tomotomi2182 1:45
@@tomotomi2182seems like you don’t know the meaning of the words „exact same thing“.
@@caifasvaca9451 yes I do
@@pilkers2 those people im there still would've been dead at the hands of US soldiers
Makes the fight between homelander and the trio even more amazing how well homelander held his own, after all homes had never a true chalange, nobody was even near on his level so when they teamed up, having close strenght he really did a good job defending himself, fighting them off and even managing to escape before they take his powers...
I m pretty sure Homelander got nerfed.
@@emperortime2356nah not really
@@emperortime2356If anything, durability wise he got buffed.
It's not surprising he knows how to fight, besides being experimented on and tortured his entire childhood he was trained in combat with other supes at an early age
@@aled845 but he's still not as experienced as black noir or queen Maeve like take away the compound v if any of them had a one vs one fight homelander wouldn't stand a chance
Always liked that when homelander was telling people that they’re the real heroes technically he was telling the truth
laser eye power is more suited for villians and mass murderers. This show does a really good job at proving that
1:17
That shot is amazing, just his red glowing eyes lighting up from the darkness. so sick, it reminds me of the terminator's red eyes protruding from it's metal eye sockets
this whole sequence is clearly reminiscent of the Terminator movies, the way how he walks down cutting everyone to pieces so casually and effortlessly
You can see how Black Noir is the only one who tries.
*THE DEEP* is the wisest and greatest superhero of all time
@@blackdynamite_5470 *The Peak
@@JackTal0s ☝💯 facts
There’s only 2 supes killing foreign terrorists, probably cus HL and Black Noir are the strongest ones. So HL doesn’t gotta do shit to try but Noir is best suited with Stealth.
This scene makes me feel relived this guy doesn't exist in real life. I mean I would be fucking terryfied if a man, capable of flying with lasers and the strength to kill you with a slap, existed
That's why 99% of people are afraid of him except Butcher, Stan Edgar etc
I wouldn't even wanna be near him. He could kill you just by looking at you at any moment, he could slap and kill you. He can hear, smell and see anything. He can fly anywhere at top speeds. Honestly I'm surprised the Boys have managed to survive going up against a guy like this
I can’t explain why but I love the shots of Homelander descending/landing on the ground. Seeing his boots and cape just make me feel instant grief 😅😅
its called a sense of dread
@@mergat2970 Nightcore - Ken Carson
0:56 that's one way of greeting a mere villain if you're too strong for them 😂
You know a lot of Superman media likes to do the "dark scene and Superman's eyes begin to glow red" thing when Supes is about to go off on someone, but I honestly the small detail here where Homelander isn't expressing any emotion when his eyes light up. Superman usually is pissed as hell to play up the coolness of the scene, but here Homelander is this violent, unstoppable force with no regard or compassion for his victims.
Homelander makes you truely appreciate how broken laser eyes are in a way superman never could. Probably cuz he's a complete psycho
The violence was scary but what I found most frightening was his stepping out of the building, looking up, and breathing a sigh of contentment. He relished that he got to cut loose and kill without consequences. Then had to put on his smiling facade again when meeting the soldiers. He wishes deep down to go about and cut down anyone who opposes him.
The song is *Rock El Casbah by Rachid Taha*
Those marines found out what homelander really is like
no disrespect man but those are army soldiers
@@henrythe2thyeah?
Wdym yeah? Marine and army are different.@@Walthu_99.5
@@Walthu_99.5meaning they would of killed those people as well just with their guns. HL did the same just with the weapon he has. Lazer eyes
@@theboy1625 they don't know if they'll be killed or survive. So no, they couldn't have done the EXACT same thing by themselves. And i replied "yeah" to that guy because he's acting like army soldiers is not just another name for marines
There's something unsettlign about seeing Homelander's glowing red eyes in the dark..
Now i find it bittersweet the fact that Homelander's catch phrase is paying homage to soldier boy
Fun fact. Soldier Boy was a nickname given to Antony Star in the series Banshee
Man what they did with soldier and homelander was brilliant cause I should have saw the father son angle coming but it didn't dawn on me until a few seconds before the reveal.
You guys. You are the real heroes.
There are some Hancock vibes in that line
Goo duh jer buh
Good jooob
When compared to him? They absolutely are.
No I am the real hero
I don't know what would be the most scary to see in the dark, the glowing red lightsaber of Vader or the glowing red eyes of Homelander
Both mean death
Glowing eyes
@@firebottle8402 at least Vader will kill you in most effective way, not tortured like this
Getting killed by Vader in battle would be an honourable death. Getting killed by a man-child like Homelander would be nothing short of a shameless death.
i prefer vader.
When you're coming back to the first level of a game you mastered.
1:28 he also killed the hostage blonde American woman with laser😂😂
Homelander could have won the war on terrorism by himself. Like him or not, he is not to be fucked with.
Yea but of course the US GOVERNMENT don't want SUPES in the military for some odd reason
@@Jeffey1975 vought isnt good at cover ups
plus the supes have killed so many innocents
@@Jeffey1975they are to powerful and unstable
The thing is, wanton killing creates more terrorists.
He could not. Terrorism is not a threat. It is a part of business model. Damn they even show you in the movie how they pumb up terrorists with superstuff to get an excuse for military contracts and political power. I mean, can that metaphor be even more blunt? lol if you want to end terrorism, you need to hit the source - places like Washington
2:09 It's crazy because you'd think homelander would've been able to hear the guy's heartbeat and him running away from the start, he just did that for show
The only unrealistic part is when the soldiers look disgusted. Trust me, those guys would be laughing and enjoying the show.
What do you mean?
Im glad to finally meet someone who knows that 😂
@@koleszgdanska7149 What do you think about that?
@@Dress737 its quite common in people, nothimg weird
Soldiers aren’t monsters mate
Homelander just teach Clark how to make laser eyes be more convenient.
UA-cam commentators, you guys are the real heroes.
homelander perfectly represents America
1:32 this will be his fatality in mk1 mark my words and noir /madelyn kill combined into the second
1:19 Person with bright color shining eyes in the dark moments like these are usually cringy. But Homelander looks terrifying
The red eye glow while he marches through the pitch black of the hq reminds me of the flashback scene in Terminator 1. Where the T800 infiltrates a resistance base, throws off his cloak, and just walks through the base killing everyone with a gatling laser, and his red glowing eyes shine through from behind the organic eyes. Soooo eerie.
Rock the casbah playing in the background makes me laugh.
Homelander arrives at Al Mazrah (2023)
If there's one thing everyone loves and hates equally, it's this guy. He's so hateable but so relatable it's honestly insane.
I love Homelander. He's the best.
Exactly
The best what? Person? Or character?
@@amigodavizinhanca7562 Best character. Supposed Nietzschean ubermensch riddled with modernist doubt and self insecurity.
Can imagine planning an operation to a tee, run simulations, you know how many are inside, intel that needs to be collected, HVT’s that need to be captured and so forth…then this guy shows up and heat visions everyone while you’re sitting outside and watching, asking your teammates “Wtf are we even here, guys?”
The infantry going through the swamp is the most realistic thing ever.
when you cant be bothered to bring the suit back to the dry cleaners the same week
I think homelander would be a good spy or an investigator considering how he doesnt have to worry about being killed and how impressive he is at coming in quietly
he looks like a literal demon with the red eyes in the dark. love it.
Come to think of it, the show really hasn't been able to catch how evil Homelander was since season 1 :/
??
"if looks could kill" never sounded so literal😁😁
“God bless America….. 💥 👀” 😂
Indeed
the only character who actually uses his lasers
Superman used them alot wym
Homelander is so lazy. Just spamming one move
@@emperortime2356 There is no need to exert yourself anymore than that when you're impervious. You act as if you wouldn't do the same.
@@JackTal0s he could have easily incapicitated those terrorist with his speed. But becuz he is a massive a-hole he use his laser eyes instead to kill them
@@emperortime2356if it works you spam it until the enemy knows how to counter it that’s the rule
the arabic graffiti at 2:17 says "Homelander is racist" 💀
There should be an episode where Homelander suddenly realizes that he's lost all of his super-powers. It would be interesting to see how someone with his level of narcissism and illusions of grandeur psychologically deals with suddenly finding out that he's no longer special and is just an ordinary person.
Literally was gonna happen at the end of S3 until Butcher messed it up
Suicide
Like if they solder boy'd him?
That has to be his ultimate fate. Death would be far too simple. Butcher dies, and he lives in fear.
The finale of the show is probably going to be where Homelander loses his powers. Then he is either going to die or get arrested. Or leave and just never come back.
He definitely knows how to give a good performance.
1:52 Homelander is playing happy wheels
2:15 you can see the soldiers’ NVGs are just green LEDs on a prop. Clearly the prop guys didn’t tell the director not to show the inside of them on screen
You think the show runners are going to buy a bunch of PVS-14s for each actor so a few people would notice the small detail?
@@rioyr6210 that’s literally not what I said
For anyone curious: the song is Rock el Casbah by Rachid Taha
Am I the only one who thinks Antony Starr would be an amazing Terminator?
Ikr 👌👌
When you're a maxed out lvl 100 and you come back to the beginning of the game to kill the lvl 1 enemies again.
Love how they manage to get past all the gore, because of how dark the lighting is.
i hope this kill at 1:47 will be a fatality in mortal kombat 1
Well as a middle eastern i can confirm that the writing in the background says that homlander rascist 😂
1:01 I just realized the song is a cover of Rock the Cashbah by The Clash
Those red glowing eyes in the dark, nightmare stuff.
That smirk you can see he enjoyed that 😂😖
i generally love the boys, hands down the best show i have ever watched (for me) perfect cast and just everything.... gutted its ending after season 5 but.... atleast it will be 5 perfect seasons
The Soldiers looked so horrified, like what they were gonna do without Homelander was any different.
I'm guessing much, much less dismemberment and the women being spared
@@harshalshetty9865 I agree with less dismemberment, but not so sure with the women.
@@harshalshetty9865 in reality, there is an 80% chance that the woman would be r*ped so..
POW? Bro like there are probably civilians there, meanwhile Homelander just killed everyone there
The difference is they would have needed to kill them, whereas homelander with his superpowers absolutely did not.
The red eyes moving in the darkness is so badass, I love this scene
I still get goosebumps from this scene. Wooooweeee.
Homlander is just smth else
Like what would superman be if he was a villain lol😂
We got that, the injustice comics
@@reflex9238 Nah! bro he just too whippy , He doesn't hold a candle for the pure evilness ,and insanity of Homelander. Yes he kill properly a lot of peoples maybe even surpass Homelander in the number ,but if you count the direct kill hand to gut squiring people to dead playing with their corpse Homelander is a pro on that.
Give Brightburn a watch. It’s a Superman horror movie.
Homelander is what you get without Ma and Pa Kent types
You don't say
This is so satisfying to watch 🤩
You need help
I like the detail of homelander’s upper body not even flinching when he crushes the guys head with his boot. Just emphasises how he does it as easy as crushing a bug😂
He looks like demon with the red eyes in the dark and i love it looks really menacing
Not me casual watching this while eating 😂
America summed up in 1 scene
I gotta say the part where he lasered the guys head in half as he was going down the stairs and all you see is red eyes in the dark
Chills
another relatable moment brought to you by homelander
Who's here after that mk1 reveal?
He’s just pure scary in this scene
My favourite part is when he lands and says “It’s Homelandin’ time!” and then just starts lasering.
Every time we see "ACTION" music in this show is spot on...🔥
I love how after this they portrayed the inferiority of Terrorist weapons to American by creating a terrorist supe only to be killed by Noir seconds later
Makes you wonder Why Superman doesn't use His Eye Lasers more often.
A few reasons
1. Heat vision is highly destructive and will cause tons of unwanted damage if you aren't careful
2. Heat vision is one of his most lethal powers and Superman doesn't kill
3. Superman is powered by solar radiation and his heat vision drains his solar radiation much faster than any other ability, meaning if Superman uses his heat vision for too long in a short period of time he will just weaken himself.
He’s like the terminator when the lights go out
That Rock the Casbah spinoff is infectious
He sounds so sarcastic when he like “you guys are the real heroes”
I wanted to see what black noir did in the hard rock cafe in Lagos considering what homelander did to these guys.
Homelander always mentioned soliders as "You guys are the real heros" .He was a sadistic monster all the way wanted attention , unlike soldiers...Perfect writing.
Those red eyes in the dark are so… menacing.
1:53 THAT SMILE ... HAHAHAHAH
This scene alone is better than ALL of Marvel combined.
Geez, seeing only red eyes in the dark is terrifying
“Oh and you guys… you guys are the real heroes” kinda reminds me of Hancock “Good job”
