Brightburn (2019) KILL COUNT 

If that did happen I doubt any other kill count could top 7+ billion

That's exactly what I thought was gonna happen

It would have 7 billion if the planet blew up

that would've be sick lmao, i thought the same when he said that

Is your entire profile a jojo reference

but then he couldn’t play it off because I hit his head perfectly

@@dam1an_frags He could say he doesn't have great aim, if the child didn't know about his aim

@@cooperramos2700 but it'd be worth the risk

That doesn't make any sense why would the father even be pointing a gun at his son which showed his intention was to shoot and kill him, especially cuz it hit him perfectly in the back of his head. The father was screwed no matter what he did.

Does the kid seem very rational? Also, why would he believe him?

I agree 100percent

I didnt even think about this. Thanks for bringing it up. I totally agree

Lol imagine lgbt superheroes 😂

@@accurategamer7085 Northstar does deserve a little more attention yes.

@@angrytheclown801 Watch The Boys. There's like an evil superman character there that's very well written. And superheroes abusing their powers is one of the main themes of the show.

mitzuru kosa you actually have a point but the ship said “take the world” once he hit puberty

Fair point I like it

Feel like that would be a better way to do it. He is supposed to be like evil Superman, but while Jor-Els messages had some effect on him in some versions. Superman is a Hero because his environment rather than because of some messages from the ship.

So basically you hate horror movies?

@@logansmith8147 not really hate

Well personally thats what i think makes a grounded horror. I think you mean dumb decisions for the sake of convience like the mother here refusing to acknowledge how messed up her kid is. My favourite horror is Strangers Prey at Night (unpopular I know). I thought all the dumb decisions made sense in that film like the son losing the gun because he placed on the table so he could bandage his sister's arm and then the killer rams a truck through the trailer knocking the table down and the gun is someone amongst the carnage but they dont have time to find it due to the killer. Dumb characters are a core team in horror but they have to have an understandable reason of why they do stupid things.

@@j.murray5656 well it's the mom fault to adopt Brandon

"And if that don't work, use more gun" -Engineer

Well, what else would a kyle know to do?

Yes it was so totally dumb to kill a murderous kid with superpowers and a intent to kill

@@chuckjohnson393 LOL

Chris' Channel Him never bleeding doesn’t mean he can’t die. I mean have you ever heard of a drowned victim? Oxygen starved victim? How about people dying in bed? Organs can be shut down. Sure the kid can’t bleed but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have regular organs that work like anyone else’s. So as best as the father could do he tried killing him with a bullet. As we the audience know that won’t kill him the father doesn’t and that was his best shot at trying to kill him. What else was he supposed to do? Just let his son kill or have his son just kill him without trying to do anything. What would you have done in that moment without any of the knowledge you have over Superman? He doesn’t even know he got cut by the meteor thing either so that’s out of the options. Even Xenomorphs are susceptible to bullets. The Father was most likely hoping that he could still kill him by shooting his brain, I mean have you ever heard of shooting someone in the head? Yes he can’t bleed but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have organs functioning like our own. Remember the audience knowing things doesn’t mean character choices are stupid because they don’t know said things. Lastly the father knows a gun can kill and he’s killed with it before. He’s not going to go all Tcm on the boy because why do that when you can have a gun that works even better with a better explanation to why he has a gun instead of a chainsaw. He knows guns can kill and that’s all he really has to use so it’s like a last stand situation.

@@Someguyy867 damn bro it's just a meme

Right? I was expecting some fucked up pre teen assault shit. Thankfully it was just murder

Thankfully he only brutally murdered her mother...

James Samson "Thankfully"

Ok but she should have at least questioned it a _little bit._ There's a big difference between the child you gave birth to and the one you plucked out of a red glowing spaceship/meteor. xD

It's all just motherly instinct. She desperately wants to hold onto the idea that her little space baby could just be a normal kid. She DEFINITELY knows somethings up but just keeps giving him the benefit of the doubt

@@NicolaiAAA No, not really. A mother is a mother, they're still capable of loving a child just as much even if they didn't give birth

@some kinda guy You're acting like people haven't loved weirder things

@some kinda guy If someone fell in love with the Eiffel tower, a women desperate to have kids can love a child falling out of a meteor

People have said they would've preferred if he wasn't a sleeper agent but honestly that's the most unique thing Brandon has going for him compared to other evil supermen. Outside of maybe Homelander being a lab baby.

Oh, so it's more like "What if Goku did end up fulfilling his mission to subjugate humanity... and also had Superman's powers."

no, no, not take over. to TAKE it. as in destroy.

Also in the beginning of the movie when his Biology class talks about the difference between bees and wasps and Brandon gives a long explanation about how some sorts of wasps lay their eggs in other insects nests so they would be raised by them and after growing up they take those nests for themselves it was a huge foreshadowing for his fate because that seems to be exactly what his kind does

I think this movie fails to capture the nuance this type of story requires I would've liked it better if he wasn't a sleeper agent but just a kid with godlike powers doing whatever the fuck he wants because nobody can stop him or hell have him have a bad upbringing anything is better than the severely overused sleeper agent plot

Agreed, not the biggest fan of the use of mind control or possession in most stories. It just seems much more interesting if characters act of their own beliefs and volitions

While that is true, I think it’s more than that. I like the story “Irredeemable” for this because it tackles an evil superman very well, it was the influences and upbringing that defines everything about an individual. Superman’s heroics are only second to the heroism that his parents gave to him, I think that it’s a better story if the parents were assholes and so this god grew up to be one too

Nickolaus Afon yep and they raised a supervillan

So is his Brandon could have easily been a hero or something if it wasn’t for the way he found out and the way the characters dealt with it.

@@mysticalspace2596 It certainly depends, but it is very likely that him being a hero is off the table if he is indeed a sleeper agent. It's in his DNA to subjugate the planet for whatever reason, so him being good just does not work ...

The only way his parents could have survived, is if they'd accept that their adopted son is a mass murdering alien with superpowers ... instead they betrayed him ...

@@BestAnimeFreak *Cough* Goku *Cough*

@@OrangeAceGaming Goku does not have it ingrained in his DNA though. Sure, the nature of Saiyajins is violent, but that is not comparable to being a sleeperagent that gets activated.

How he was a sleeper agent

Im not going to say that they were stellar parents, but they were by no means bad. In fact, the Dad was actually pretty realistic. He did figure it out quickly, even if he could have done something else to avoid the eventual disaster. The Mom was as you expect a mother to be, that being stubbornly hanging on to hope that she didnt raise a monster, but she did also find the actual way to kill Brandon. Thing is, she was too late. Their main problem was that they didnt communicate. If the Mom had accepted that her son was up to something wicked, maybe she couldve reasoned with him before he went too far, perhaps even sit him down and tell him straight up about his origins rather than tell him spur of the moment when he is on an emotional roller coaster as it is. Failing that, she couldve told the Dad that the evil space ball thing managed to cut Brandon and make him bleed, especially since the Dad had mentioned that Brandon never had right before this. He could very well have melted someone that down into a bullet and actually succeeded in killing Brandon when they went hunting. The biggest failing everyone had was not communicating. That goes for the Aunt not telling the Sheriff as well and the Uncle not talking to the Aunt before speeding away and then dying.

have you watched the movie....

@@imapopo2924 I mean, wouldn't the uncle and aunt both die if the uncle went back to the house? The uncle would have alerted the aunt which would of made Brandon kill both so nobody knew that he was evil

Still this kid was a sociopath

This is pretty much if Superman has to deal with the numbers.

The thing that sucks is the film feels unsure what to do with it The movie plays with the whole “sleeper agent” concept but there’s also the idea he’s always had this ability and his parents just raised him poorly (that scene talking about birds and the bees)

There was so much wasted potential in this movie. I thought Brandon would become a sympathetic villain like Andrew from Chronicle, from the unfairness of the world around him because he was being bullied and no one accepts him, that stuff. But no. And the parents are terrible.

Dude - that's literally the PLOT of Brightburn. He's bullied, nobody tries to understanding him - instead, disregarding everything about him and betraying him. The ENTIRE plot was him being mistreated.

Bruno Souza exactly it shows how it affects him, essentially turning him into a murderous psycho
