Stringer's problem was that he was Jimmy but only in the dope game!! Jimmy's problem was that he thought he was smarter than everyone else!!!

Stolen content. Someone report him

A man’s world podcast is where you got this from

Growing up in the kind of environment still has two choices. I was never interviewed for my background when we started filming. I grew up in a more watered down version of Baltimore in Washington DC. In the Martin Luther King Jr. riots, I lost my first friend at 7 years old when he ate his dads gun, left on the dresser. I would shoot my mothers 22. rifle out the back window. When she found out she moved it out of our rat infested apartment. I grew up shooting BB guns and .22s. We had riots where half my neighborhood was dead or in prison by the time I was 19. I didn't have the heart to be criminal in a big way, but grew up around Transsexuals, Transvestites, homosexuals, pedos, dope dealers, dope users, I had a butcher knife at my throat at 14. I was an altar boy so I saw dead bodies all the time in open caskets at funerals. I knew, pimps, prostitutes, murderers, people with guns, dynamite and accessories. We hung out in abandon buildings and we would brick busses from rooftops. It could have gone either way. Either you have the heart to do it or not. Not all of us lacked education. When we filmed The Wire, I was casted as Burrell's aid. I was with Frankie Faison and John Dohman for the better part of 3 years. David didn't know my background and I wasn't really given a chance. The guy who played Chris, was casted as different people and kept looking at the camera all the time until they coached him and gave him the role as Chris. We had at least 6 film crews at any time. I would be at the least 3 to 4 characters on The Wire, over 4 years. I even did stand in work for Frankie and worked with the crew that did the wire taps in the wire tap room where Sonia and the others worked. We filmed in a re-staged Sam's Club where we set up shop with the wire tap room and mayors office. We had a two story building built in there. I never got to flesh out my character but I still got paid well and worked constantly so much so I have to temporary relocate to Baltimore until we finished filming. I miss it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/haDOk4GghtuVZ80

Invincible is a deconstruction. If you actually read the comics, Mark is a failure as a hero who loses every fight he’s in, helped a cynical villain destroy a portion of the population, then left and gave up, even Atom Eve states “Superheroes are shit” sorry but no it’s a deconstruction

I dont give a shit, just watched the finale of the wire s3 and that shit is better than bb ending go fuck yourself if you disagree

at least put the real content creator information in the video.

YOU STOLE THIS CONTENT. FRAUDDDDDDDD

That was some really thorough analysis & the observations with some of symbolic use of camera shots were good spots. Kinda surprised that you didn't point out the parallel with Colvin & Stringer both using the "get on with it motherf**ker" line, but otherwise. Great stuff!

Wire the writing of the charecters is flawless The 5th season can be fotgiven, because it's the last season!!! and at least they ended it right, and its not even bad, its the other seasons being so good.

There is also the fact that The Boys is about the celebrity and not necessarily the superhero. It is more about how celebrity culture can corrupt a person rather than a deconstruction of superhero media. Superpowers, as you stated in your video, is an allegory for their influence and how they can misuse it for their own twisted gain

Can you do who is more evil, Stringer Bell or Marlo Stanfield? If so, thanks.

I think there is also a deeper connection between chris and marlo, the way chris brutally killed the rapist(michael's father) I think chris may have been s3xually assulted, and marlo as well, possibly by the same individual or individuals, thats why they share such a tight bond.

I know he was a killer but he genuinely cared for and defended Michael at every opportunity. I’m glad he went to prison but I’m equally as glad he survived. In the show my heart broke for Dukie more than anyone else. He was more deserving of having Namond’s life with Colvin. The kid had no one & he was so lovely & intelligent. Truly heartbreaking.

Chris had money. His wife and her house proved that. Nobody knows why he decided to be a killer.

At least the music fits

I think Chris is a former cop for the same reasons you believe he was a soldier in the military.

Remember the story of free way ricky dealing with the CIA without even knowing it? I mean they was slinging crack and dope so maybe Chris was from the CIA........... I mean it would add up wouldnt it? Marlo probably didnt even know Chris was CIA...

you kno slim Charles did try to help all of them if u think about it

Of all the hitters on the wire, Omar is the only one who actually stuck to a code. And he ended up dead. Chris, snoop,webay were all down to take out whoever. Omar is the only one who stuck to a code… It may be slim Charles.

This dude definitely stole this content

I HATE HE KILLED THAT LADY

Didnt think the military thought x cop

I’m an Army,served in Iraq…You are trying too hard to attach him to the military,most people in the military are not like Chris.

Invincible is one of my favorite comics because it is a genuine superhero story that is shows the characters having consequences for their actions, doesn't retcon past events, and follows the same vein as Spider-Man where being a superhero doesn't solve one's problems, only adds to them. The Boys comic, on the other hand, shows a cynical world where superheroes are corporate products and the worst outcome is not just possible, but a guarantee. The Boys themselves are sometimes no better than the superheroes. And in the comic, they are even worse than the show. The Boys TV show, takes the potential in the story and makes it more palatable, ergo better. The Invincible TV show, being produced by some of the same people who produced The Boys: Amazon, Seth Rogen, and Evan Goldberg, was infused with some of the same cynical feeling that The Boys TV show had, which totally misses the point of the comic. In the Invincible comic, when violence happens, it hardly ever happens to civilians. The heroes are typically the ones who get the most violent things happen to them. In the Invincible TV show, they relish the violence against civilians. People think Man of Steel was too casual with its civilian deaths, Invincible actively seeks it out and delights in how much carnage it can unleash against regular people.

Stringer was simply blinded by greed

I feel like both are, just different types of a psychopath. Todd is the more realistic one, he's simply blatantly different from other people, entirely cold-blooded. Lalo is a more traditional depiction of a psychopath (aka what ppl imagine a psychopath to be), charming, yada-yada. One could argue Lalo is a sociopath (so APSD instead of psychopathy) but I don't recall him being hot-headed enough to be one.

I got a similar vibe. He has been inside for sure. But it is a military vibe, most definitely. Speaking as someone who has also seen both places too.

Bro you have no clue the hood believes they’re navy seals. You see squares believe the government or politicians created the world we live in today when it’s crime. They just legalized what the mafia and criminals did ❤❤❤

4:40😂😂

Please somebody stop the narrator from saying the word “now” now here is what I mean, now Chris is like this because, now I think this because, now I stop

I would say that unaliving Michael’s dad was the only non-evil thing Chris did

He is insane ! Like all of them in there !

8:40 Springer?

Stringer didn’t respect the game for what it was . Thinking it’s just business , although somewhat it is . But it’s a different kind

They aren't more mature. The characters are written that way. The kids in stranger things is plenty mature for their age. Heck, I'd lose against the KGB now let alone at age 12 lol.

Honestly, Invincible has more in common with Dragon Ball Z than The Boys lol. The Viltrumites are pretty much saiyans without Frieza, and Mark is almost like Gohan. People even get brought back to life multiple times thanks to Eve or things like The Immortal.

The difference is very simple the boys was made by an angry edgelord who hates superhero. While invincible is made by a creator who likes superhero and has a respect for the material his writing.

What I always wondered and never got the answer to was just what did Marlo do to earn a man like Chris's respect and loyalty?

He stole his whole video from " its a mans world"

This video amazing very good work 💯

Whats your opinion on Judge Holden or AM? The Judge commits acts on his sinful ways just because and AM is just a petty, hating, machine. Both fit in the Greater Evil category.

One of the only vids I’ve so far found about Snoop from the show

Thank you for helping me understand why Chris was so willing to accept life without parole.

I don’t know if I would describe showing up two hours before hitting a target as “highly sophisticated surveillance”

You ever pay attention to Marlo alway saying “our” when he addressed Chris. Mutual respect Marlo knew the drug trade, Chris knew the Game and protected thier organization at all cost. Chris was really the man in that organization.

never thought of the military angle now i cant unsee it great vid.

The jealous of Michael theory part can’t lie……I WANT TO BELIEVE IT

That’s definitely a cool way of looking at her; this is the snoop in an alternate reality if she never started acting

Reminder to make a video on snoop
