The Disappointment of Soldier Boy (Teaching Tragedy 101) 

I’ll remember all of my subscribers and viewers!!

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcast even me? 🥺👉👈

@@Centurio_Romae no

@@Centurio_Romae YOU STOLE MY COMMENT!!!😭🤣🤣🤣

His voice is so deep

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcast it is Incredibly deep

I heard Soldier Boy talk once and not gonna lie…. Kind of wanted to join the army.

“You’re that asshole from the lab” *Instantly grows beard*

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcast his voice deeper than the deep's book

I agree he was so cool

Luckily he'll most likley be back in season 4

@@KingSlayer_. do we know for sure?

@@Seasonal-Shadow_4674 he is alive tho

@@Seasonal-Shadow_4674 Jensen commented on a S4 post from one of the cast members.

I agree. It’s just such a beautifully tragic moment. So subtle so amazing.

@@vlc-cosplayer homelander never really struck me as emotionally tone deaf. More actively evil. Like the scene where he forces the girl to kill herself, he knows what he's doing but he loves it. SB aint half as sadistic

Empathy? More like self awareness. Even homelander had some.

Homelander is Kefka Levels of Evil.

Yeah Homelander is a sadist who likes torturing his teammates, while Soldier Boy is oblivious to how much his teammates hate him.

It homin time!

Absolutely. It’s insane the impact he has on the screen. Truly amazing

The most butcher cvnt move you could think of haha

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcast , exactly)

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcastfucking hatet that moment. All that hype up and than this shit

Yea it’s a great scene. I’m sure he’ll be back it makes too much sense for him not to

Thanks bro that means the world to me! I’ll remember you homie!

That brings me to the subject of Gunpowder. I go back and forth on whether I believe Butcher's statement that Soldier Boy sexually abused Gunpowder. Gunpowder straight up denies it. But is he telling the truth? Is he in denial because admitting to being a sexual abuse victim of an older, more powerful man would destroy his credibility with his super-right wing, conservative base? Or did Butcher just assume the abuse was sexual in nature? I can definitely imagine a scenario in which Soldier Boy dragged 16 year old Gunpowder to the Herogasm orgy to "make you into a real man". Soldier Boy's fighting skills, including shooting, reconnaissance and cool head under pressure suggest he really did see combat, despite what The Legend claims. It's worth noting that The Legend isn't old enough to have actually known Soldier Boy during World War II. Soldier Boy may not have stormed Normandy, but he may have seen action in the Pacific and his rant about Afghanistan seems personal, so I suspect he really did participate in black ops in Afghanistan during the Soviet invasion. The most telling scene about Soldier Boy is actually one he isn't in: when Homelander asks Black Noir what he was really like. This is a complex question that deserves a complex answer, and Black Noir isn't capable of giving Homelander that answer. One of the most tragic aspects of the show (and a great example of Vought's utter villainy) is that all the while Homelander yearned for a parent's love, Soldier Boy deeply wanted children. If Vought had allowed him to interact with Homelander, he would've parented him and Homelander wouldn't have grown up in the artificial environment. I mean, Soldier Boy would've screwed him up in other ways but Homelander wouldn't have turned out AS bad as the one in the show. But Vought created Homelander to be a product, a replacement, for Soldier Boy and not a son; just as they created Soldier Boy to be propaganda and not a hero. They are both victims of corporatism.

When referring to his love for the countess I believe he believed he loved her. If that makes sense. While it isn’t an ideal form of love I do believe he had emotional attachment and bonds to her. If he didn’t he wouldn’t have had almost cried killing her. He was pissed off everyone betrayed him but when he found out countess was a part of it. He was heart broken.

I agree with homelander and soldier boy both being messed up victims of vaught. 100% going to look at a video regarding that soon. When it comes to the gunpowder thing I think it’s more of the “be a real man” kinda thing or some kind of messed up thing we’d rather not know about. Soldier boys ptsd though has such a strain on him. Even a man who’s essentially invincible now has something to fear. Flashbacks of pain. It’s a terrifying thought

No. Soldier boy is based.

What gives you the right to talk about masculinity?

Thank you for the kinda words! I also just loved his performance. Such a manly man who draws the audience in and grabs our attention

No one is completely bad,lol Not even Stormfront

@@atanaZion still pretty fucking bad

I loved that line and I loved Sean conery haha so sad he passed away 🙏🏻

Oh trust me we know butcher getting his own video soon! Also thank you so much for the kind words! I love your name and picture btw haha

100% agree. All because bad shit happened to you doesn’t mean you don’t try to change

100% agree and may or may not have a video about that in the works ;)

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcast All here for it 👍

Yes the theme of parent hood and almost the lack thereof is powerful

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcast yep I agree. When you look at how Superman turned out through more cynical eyes you sort of say to yourself how the hell did Clark Kent avoid the pitfalls of being a "god" among men?

Thank you for the support that means a lot. I agree with that. He mentally is pretty messed up but overall just a sad story to see.

100% agree. The bro wasn’t a good guy but doesn’t change the fact that no one ever took his feelings into account. Bro was a side character in his own life

Exactlyyyyy

For redemption I believe that means his past acts can be forgiven however unfortunately with soldier boy it’ll be very hard for him to get to that point. He’s a villain and ruthless murderer for a reason. I’d like to see it but he’d have to go major good guy mode to see even a possibility of it happening

He's probably going to be a loose Cannon if he escapes from stasis or cryo since he wouldn't like butcher and the rest and definitely wouldn't like vought since they replaced him

@@username.exenotfound2943 that be hype tho. I hope that happens

In my eyes he is Redeemed somewhat He was string minded and would have killed Homie if Butcher didn't interfere

Thanks man! I know the video is a little misleading but he even says himself that the word defines him

I’m not saying he as a character is bad. He’s an S tier character by far. Like so amazing. I’m saying within their universe he as a person and as a hero is a disappointment you know?

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcast oh okay I understand the way you’re looking at it

He does. They actually changed the actor of Ryan from season 2 finale and season 3

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcast I think you mean Season 1 Finale

Thanks man that means so much to me!

Thanks man that means a lot! Love the support!

Thanks bro I appreciate the support!

Thanks man! Always appreciate the support!

Thanks bro that support means so much. I’m glad you feel comfortable and welcomed watching my video. Welcome to the fam and your support makes my day even better 🤙🏻

He should. The theories I’ve seen y’all make are amazing. Tbh might make a video about that

Why? Why would they bring him back after frozing him again?? At least they could have made the arc having an open ending

Thank you so much for the kind words!

I am him. I'm batman

Thanks man appreciate the support and love the name

Thank you so much! Welcome to the family! You’re always appreciated here!

Haha thanks dude happy to have you join!

Thanks for the kind words! I haven’t seen Hannibal. What’s it about and would you recommend I give it a watch?

Haha thank you so much! Fingers crossed we get there🤞

Maybe just to fuck with homelander. That’d be funny to see haha

100% agree I wanted solider boy to do his thing. Bro just radiates coolness

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcast I go back and forth on him, when watching the show, I pitied him and was disappointed how he was disposed of in the season finale.I can understand him when it comes to be betrayed and plus Jensen Ackles acting. However while Homelander is worse, Soldier Boy isn't a saint and some of the worst I have seen of people IRL up close I see in Soldier Boy which makes it unnecessarily complicated

Massive Redflag

Exactly. But remember that scene where homelander talked to himself in the mirror and cutting that toxic human part of him out? That’s what solider boy did. He cut out the part that cared. He killed the last thing that made him human when he killed crimson countess. Cause he killed the only thing he loved

He don't see himself at Homelander and either feels bad for himself, if anything he thinks Homelander is ridiculous cause Homelander isn't more like himself

Thanks man! I can’t wait for us to grow as a community too. We are in this together!

I agree! Also I’m gonna start better call Saul here soon actually! I’ve heard nothing but great things about it! Also thanks for the support and kind words!

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcast Also, excuse my poor grammar:p

@@Ecumeneinc great profile pic dude, pink floyd all the way🤘🏻

@@finger3306 Thanks bruv, Animals is one of my favorites

Great idea. I’ve been meaning to watch the rest of the x men movies anyway. I also love the amazing spider man. Great ideas I’ll definitely look into it and see what original takes or videos I can come away with it

Thank you for the support!

More on the way soon!!

Thanks brudda

Thank you! The piano is Antonio Vivaldi winter

That means the world to me. You have no idea. I hope you find happiness and success in whatever you pursue!

As a character I love him so much. His acting is incredible. He’s the definition of a badass. Bro is a walking stud. I loved his character ever since he first spoke

Thank you that means so much bro!

Haha thanks man I appreciate it! I always trying to improve so hopefully I keep growing!

He crankin up. Bro Soulja boy did it first

Thanks man I appreciate you so much!

Everybody seeks approval. That’s okay. We just can’t let the approval of others triumph the approval of ourselves. We are our own success. If you’re going through something I hope it gets better!

Yea I agree 100% a bro is his own mistakes still

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcast With the power he had, he was spoiled and had a huge ego and a bully. He thought he can do whatever he wanted without facing consequences. If he had face Superman and Captain America, both heroes would show him who the real heroes are. If he had Omni Man, Soldier Boy would be in a body bag.

Bro the fact that you commented that quick made me so happy bro 😭😭

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcast no problem

Haha thanks man. The boys is an amazing show and I truly do love it. Also love your name!

Idk I’m sure he will. He didn’t die and he’s pretty important so you never know

Yea bro that one got me too

Thank you! I appreciate it so much!

Thanks man much appreciated!

I could smell it from here

Thanks bro I hella appreciate that. Soldier boy the man bro. He’s my favorite

I would say that he wasn’t wasted at all. His explosion helps Maeve get her full arc and develop. It also now leads into huge cliff hangers on how he will react to hating the boys and homelander. He for all we know could be the “hero” of next season wanting to kill both and end supes

@@Sports_Questionmark_Podcast Why bringing him back again aftee putting him in the box? Why didn't they just let the ending open if he survived or not?

Thanks man I appreciate that so much!

Solider boy makes captain America look like a baby

And why would you think this?

@@atanaZion Because America is him. Arrogant, oblivious to everyone around him either hate him or laugh at him, violent, believes he is good guy while in reality everyone wants to get rid of him because he is so toxic, but he has some redeeming qualities, but in no shape or form it will ever be enough for bad things he is done.

It’s all on his wiki page. There’s a link in the description for it. Full website for the boys show and it’s characters

Background stuff in MM's notes.

Thank you!

This wasn’t talked in a episode but found on his official wiki boys page. The link for it is in the description and has lost of insite on him and other characters

I agree. The bro deserves his own show or movie at this point

Oooo definitely will give it a look!
