#crying actually worst nightmare#the way everyone was like “how tf are they gonna adapt the boys herogasm storyline” is me with this#how was this actually greenlit and what will the rating be lmao#basically the second most disturbing piece of media ive consumed#when it focuses on the human reaction it sometimes has somewhat good storylines?#but I think the ridiculous violence for the sake of shock value just undercuts it all#it’s like watching just the last few scenes of devilman when the humans are losing it but constantly#Garth was like hm the boys had very meaningful violence…now let’s do something with all the violence I want without having to have purpose#I’m aware there is purpose and interesting themes to crossed but fuck man overall it’s dogshit to me :)#if you like it then good for u#ur getting a movie#it’s just polarizing to me bc I don’t think media like this should have to limit its violence to comfort people#but it kinda shoots itself in the foot by never giving you time to ruminate on the actual themes#always to busy shocking you by killing off the most interesting characters in the worst ways possible#imo#garth ennis#the boys#the boys comics#crossed comic#crossed badlands#avatar press#violence#gore#trauma#jacen burrows
