The visual cuisines for this night are the first two episodes of the Boys season 4 and a Pokemon movie. The Boys is a show adapted from a comic book that parodied mainstream superheroes and the show is widely considered a flat out improvement from the comic.

In the world of The Boys, superheroes are the result of a corporation injecting children with a drug that has a wide range of effects. They generally then go on to be managed by the corporation as entertainers with all that entails, ranging from covering up murders to outright staging events for the supes to roleplay as heroes. It’s pretty much what if superheroes existed with capitalism.

The protagonists are a group of vigilantes led by a man with a personal vendetta against Homelander, the most powerful manchild in the world that’s a sort of Trump stand-in with an american flag for a cape.

The show has frequent shock/gross-out humor with bombastic, graphic violence. The first few minutes of the first episode of season 1 will give you a general idea of what the show is about.

After that will be a Pokemon movie. Another one: Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution (2019).
