Wife and I have been watching The Widow recently and are halfway through. It's been pretty decent so far.

I've not seen it yet, but its on my list simply because I like Kinnaman. Haven't seen the original movie, but i' ve been wondering if i'd get more out of the show if I did beforehand

The Boys show looks better than the comic book. I lasted 12 or so issues before pulling the plug. Ellis' hate for superheroes wasn't even subtle or ironic. It was just an attempt at shock.

They cut out a ton of the pointless filler BS that was in the comics, but they also diverged way too far from the plot. Not sure where they're going to take it without it being dragged out.

There are so many great little LOL moments in this show. Fantastic casting overall as the Banshee guy makes for a really good villain. It's just so much more fun when the corrupt villains are the ones with the superpowers.

I really liked the movie, and I think the concept is awesome... I got quite far into the TV show before giving up. It started out great but then slowly devolved into a teenage drama about dating and friendships etc. It was kinda like starting out watching an HBO show and then realizing 8 episodes in that you’re really watching The CW.

Ya, I get that in the middle episodes for sure. I think it ended fairly well and got back on track. Looking forward to see where they take season 2.

The Boys is awesome, first time I've binge watched a series since the first season of Stranger Things.

Yeah +1 for The Boys. Just getting into it but it’s been pretty wild. Absolutely over the top gore (but somehow not too hard to stomach, maybe because of how lightly everything gets treated).

The Boys is ridiculous. The kind of ridiculous that sees you coming from a mile away and is ready for you when you get there. Prepared and punctual. Just the way I like it.

(also the name of my sex tape)

I can count the amount of comic book/super hero movies I've watched on one had (including Dolph Lundgren's version of the Punnisher).

However I just watched episode one of The Boys, and will likely finish the first season by morning.

Your sex tape is named “the Boys”? Dude. I’m calling the FBI.
