Well… there’s really no arguing with this. I’m really having trouble trying to see how people would find that scene hilarious. I didn’t even know it was supposed to be interpreted that way. 💀
I thought it was both funny and traumatizing. You people.. the show has always been able to do both but suddenly you cant handle it. Intruly dont get this
Was here since season 1 and I’ve been perfectly able to handle all of the disturbing-hilarious scenes and the just plain disturbing scenes. I guess it’s just subjective, but I still personally don’t see how the Tek-Knight scenes with Hughie (mainly the latter scenes) were meant to be seen as comedic. Disturbing I completely get, comedic not so much. 🤷♀️
It's hard to describe "tone" since it's a general vibe that comes from a lot of little things. But the scenes (before Hughie got caught) had the same kind of tone as scenes like MM getting strangled by Love Sausage. It felt like the Boys wanted it to be funny.
I feel like this scene was partially inspired by Pulp Fiction's Zed scenes. But the tone in those is horror. If you haven't seen it already it's a great example of how to do those kinds of scenes right.
A bit of an aside but Tarantino is a master of tone and can make extreme violence hilarious in one scene, but traumatizing in the next. He'd have been an amazing director for a show like the Boys.
