Ep07 The penultimate. The showdown cometh. The final battle is teased. There's a lot of whacky stuff in this show. I think the more I get to know the characters, the better the show becomes. And each character does have an arc, no matter how small the character. I still have to watch the opening credits dance number because it is so loopy. But I don't care for much of the 80s glam rock music. John Cena kills it in the role of Peacemaker. He must be very happy the role came along because it allows him to a surprising amount of things you wouldn't expect like playing the piano in last week's episode. Granted, he played Home Sweet Home by Motley Crue but he did actually play.

Dammit. I have now stumbled into the spoilers for tonight's final episode. Twice. The internet is the devil.

And it's over. The big spoiler was an accurate spoiler but didn't spoil the show too much. It was kind of a meh ending. And kind of challenging. There was a philosophical question posed and I'm not sure if Peacemaker made the right choice. It does set up for season two but it does wrap up season 1 which I liked. At the end of the day, I think Peacemaker needs to be more proactive in his story. Everyone around him did things while things just happened to him.

Just a saw a lot of hate for James Gunn for the big ending. People are calling him Joss Whedon 2.0. I'm beginning to think people are dumb.

Finished...meh. No likable characters. Not a fan of 80's hair metal, so that was annoying (except for Cena having a moment on the piano). Why is Peacemaker's dad so tech savvy, yet the single purpose helmets seem like a bad design.
Similar tone to Suicide Squad which I didn't like much either.

John Cena is a mensch. I hear he does this all the time. I believe he fulfills the most Make A Wish requests.
