creepy stalker longpost about why he loves capeshit I know how most people here feel about capeshit, but if you haven't watched Peacemaker you're missing out

Peacemaker is a one season tv series on HBOmax (renewed for a second season based on the popularity of the first) that's a pretty fun spin-off of the whole superhero genre.

It's dirty, often vulgar, lots of cursing and sexual innuendo, some gore. It would be r or ma rated if it was a movie. It's more of a comedy than a superhero series, and it's not child friendly, but it's pretty good, and a pleasant twist on the whole genre.

In the final episode of the first season, the "Justice League" (Superman, Aquaman, Wonderwoman and the Flash are summoned at the end to help with the final fight but they don't get there in time after the Peacemaker and his rag-tag group have already handled the situation and

"You're late, you fricking peepeeheads!" John Cena's Peacemaker yelled at four members of the Justice League—Superman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, and Aquaman—before singling out Aquaman. "Go frick another fish, butthole!"

Jason Mamoa made a cameo for just this last part of the episode.

If you find yourself bored and looking for something funny and irreverent to watch, it's actually a good show. You can stream it here:

^This website is safe, although I recommend adblockers. You can also find practically any movie or tv series you'll ever want to watch on it. And it's safe.

Side note to add: In this series, the Peacemaker has a tagline, that he will make peace, and he will kill anybody to achieve that end. And he has a pet eagle, whose name is Eagly.

It is really stupid, but yet it's not. That's why the show has garnered the popularity it has. There's a deeper storyline than just the superficial stupidity of the perceived genre.

They can do a touching scene right after like five minutes of fart jokes and still have it work. Can't wait for season 2

Found it

Btw peacemaker was great. That's how James Gunns stuff is. He does ha ha wacky funny basic bottom of the barrel humor that's the same level as fart jokes then will do the emotional gut punch that isn't even deep. It's just easily understood empathy. The dude even did it when he wrote for troma which was super duper twisted and based. Still his shit for them had a real basic emotional feel to it. The dude says awful stuff about kids and most likely is a p-do but he does know who to write a simple basic story that touches you on all levels.

Btw when ghost dad showed up I knew there'd be a season 2. I still would have been completely fine with the bloody undignified death and limited series we brought up too though. They could have even had it inspire the others to finish the job.

I have watched all of peacemaker and it is shit. The jokes are lame, not funny, and juvenile. The story sucks. The writers have never met an actual racist and tried to write a grand wizard type character anyway. Capeshit being good is actually impossible. Look at some actual art instead of a product.

I watched the maltese falcon the other day on hbo max which is interesting since it is old and influential for film noir. I think it is just a step above being 1940s capeshit though. I saw the tragedy of macbeth a couple weeks ago in theaters and that was really good. You will definitely appreciate/understand it more if you like Shakespeare but it is a great film regardless. Planning on seeing drive my car next time I go to the theater. It looks really good.

I tried to watch it but literally after the opening the first scene was with a blob BIPOCs lesbian talking to her lesbian wife about having kids or something…. Then they go to this restaurant and talk and talk and talk and talk.

It was pozzed and boring sry but glad you like it.

If you want to watch something not pozzed and actually interesting watch Yellowstone and 1883.

Gets more pozzed. The same fatty runs 50 yards without keeling over then murders 5 superhumans in a row. Also a big climate change/Trump angle at the end

I still had fun with it though. John Cena and 2 other guys were actually really good in it

Me and @The_Homocracy's profile picture@The_Homocracy have been dming about this for like 3 weeks now. I despise James Gunn but I can't deny the guy does good basic lowbrow comedy with some actual emotional moments. It goes back to when he was a troma guy and the gross out lowbrow humor was even worse. The whole thing with him being an irredeemable shitbag in the suicide squad is pretty much the main theme. He knows he is and he hates himself over it. Also fun fact the actress who plays Harcourt is James Gunns co-molester and you can tell what episodes he's directed because there's these long lingering shots of her and they're use really nice filters and angles.

When I was a kid, I never read any comic books and wasn't "in" on any of the lore of any of the superhero shit. But, I have to admit to that I have enjoyed some of the modern MCU stuff. Of all of the MCU stuff, Logan is the best one in my opinion and that is probably relevant to why I prefer Peacemaker and Logan to all the other types of the genre.

Oh I read the shit out of comics in the 80s. This show is a big time reference to how batshit the stories were in DC back then. Kinda surprised you watched it I know I was going to suggest it to ya. Watch black mass and arcane (yeah it's a cartoon I know) on Netflix next. Also if you've never watched the venture bros this is pretty similar to that. It's wacky funny shit with lore but it's main theme is regret. Venture bros is literally my favorite show of all time.

From what I've gathered from this post and comments, it's a capeshit that's edgy, it has shitty jokes to make sure it can always hide behind not being serious, the first episode is shit, it has a bunch of annoying shitlib nonsense in it, When are you going to start listing the good qualities?
