I have already explained it to you multiple times how the scene is set up, what the scene is trying to tell you, and how the point is undermined. Not sure what else to tell you. At this point you are refusing to even acknowledge those points and what they mean to the audience and what the show is either trying to say or inadvertently says.
The entire scene at the bar is set up because before it's obvious Peacemaker wants to have sex with Harcourt. He IS attracted to her. The reason he goes to the bar after seeing her is to sleep with her. That is his goal. Inside the bar it is established that she doesn't want to (violently too), and that he's a complete asshole for even trying. He then looks over and sees someone who will sleep with him. Now. Please. PLEASE. Tell me what reasoning was there to even demonstrate to the audience that Harcourt doesn't want to hook up with a stranger and especially not Peacemaker? Like, these scenes have purpose. They help tell the story. If the point of Harcourt beating up a bar bro and telling off Peacemaker as he makes his very offensive proposal then what is the point of it all? Why have her there? Why not just have him go to a random bar and sleep with a person? That would fulfill everything already in the story because Harcourt being at the bar doesn't impact Peacemaker at all it seems because he literally brags about fucking that woman even though he was almost killed by her.
I think you are digging way to into this. The scene was mostly just to establish that Harcourt is a total badass and that she really doesnt like peacemaker as a person. She even admits she finds the man handsome, but it is the person that offends her.
I could think of many ways to make Harcourt appear badass and none of them involve that. However, it is hard to really believe this, though, because after the bar we next see her walking in her underwear through her hotel room because that was 100% necessary and the lingering shots as she walks outside, and on the mission she is knocked out pretty fast. For the show trying to show how badass she is, they also wants to show some other things too if you catch my drift.
The character craves a physical connection and upon being rejected by someone he was interested in, drowns out his sorrows by forcing a connection with a random stranger. After their sexual encounter, he tries to spark a deeper connection but then things turn sour. The entirety of Episode 1 Act 3/Epissode 2 Act II is Gunn riffing on the inherent unfulfilling, and sometimes awkward, nature of random hookups.
So women can't be badass if they aren't wearing a shirt. Got it.
On the other hand, the first few minutes into the show we're treated to John Cena's bare ass so it evens out.
I mean, the actor is literally hooked up with Gunn currently. I don't think he's going for whatever it is you are thinking of (women are weak looking naked?). I mean yes, she didn't need to be in her underwear, but, it's also quite harmless. "In underwear" is how a lot of people sleep. If I got a call in the middle of the night, I'd be answering in my tighty whiteys. The woman has a rocking body and they probably just wanted to add the "eye candy" in the show if you will, I don't think it was any kind of statement . You can't pretend watchers at large don't like beautiful people hardly dressed in their entertainment.
Why does Jennifer and Gunn being a couple make it more reasonable? Does the audience know this behind the scenes fact?
I think that's kind of part of it. Gunn is going for a sort of "equal opportunity" nudity in this show. He's not going to hold back regardless of the sex. In The Suicide Squad we got a dick flash, in this show we got a vagina flash.
Unrelated to the discussion, but did anyone else think it was hilarious that this guy stormed off to cry to his buddy who then returned with a "She said what???"
I'm pretty sure there's plenty of folks out there who are hot for Cena
My partner is a nervous driver and needs music to calm her down.
That guy is absolutely going to be trouble in the future. At first I thought he's just a clown but he seems to have some skill to back it up
yeah, i hope they do something with him later
Yup.
watch the third episode skip to after ends credits and it pop with a play next episode(hope that helps)
