When It Comes to Action, You Can Count on The Boys

While Amazon Prime Video is still a relative newcomer in the world of on-demand viewing, with each passing day it’s becoming more and more evident that they’re here to stay. In a bid to capture more of the market share, they’ve been aggressively acquiring new titles and adding them to their lineup on a daily basis. But it may just be their Amazon Prime Originals that truly make them a heavy hitter, and knowing that action fans are an important demographic that’s not to be overlooked, they’ve certainly delivered something worth watching with one of their latest offerings: The Boys.

Now before you go thinking that The Boys is just another show in the already excessively long line of superhero offerings, think again. In this series, heroes are the last people you’d want saving the day. Starring Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, and Antony Star among many others, the boys offers us and up close and personal look at the seedy side of superheroes. In a world where superheroes spend more time marketing than saving lives, they show their true colors and often abuse their powers more often than they use them for good. Celebrated like celebrities, more powerful than politicians, and often revered of feared like gods, these “heroes” prove to be the true foces the world needs protecting from. At Least according to “The Boys,” a vigilante group set on exposing the “heroes” and the corporation behind them for who they really are. It’s a compelling watch with all the action you’d expect and then some!

Action Novels that are Well Worth Reading

With so many titles to choose from in the world of action and adventure literature, it may be difficult to choose your next read. Here are three action novels that are well worth reading, and would make great choices for your next book.

First Blood by David Morrell. If the title sounds familiar that’s because you may have seen it at the cinema. Yes, David Morrell’s first novel, First Blood, served as the basis for Rambo: First Blood. Although the screenplay went through a decade or revisions before finally making it to the screen, the novel is still every bit as action packed as the movie and well worth the read.

Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk. Although often filled with more biting social commentary than traditional action, Fight Club is nonetheless action packed in its own way. Adapted into a hugely successful movie featuring Brad Pitt and Edward Norton among other notable stars, Chuck Palahniuk’s Fight Club originated in novel form and is every bit as gripping and compelling as the movie, if not more.

Crucible: A Thriller by James Rollins. The latests release in his Sigma Force series, James Rollins (the pen name of author and veterinarian James Paul Czajkowski) shows exactly why he’s a dominant force in the world of action/adventure literature with the continuation of his Sigma Force storyline.

Fun Facts About Fight Club

A fan favorite that enjoys enduring success to this very day, Fight Club was a masterpiece of a film with a continued cult following. Here are three interesting facts about the film that you may or may not have known.

It started as a novel. Despite a drastically different ending, Fight Club manages to stay true to the plot, themes, and progression of Chuck Palahniuk’s debut novel of the same name. The all-star cast including Brad Pitt and Ed Norton seem perfectly suited to the characters they play, and the movie (much like the novel) is nothing short of a non-stop thrill from start to finish.

Even the wardrobe was R-rated. The MPAA was rather tough on Fight Club, and as a result many scenes were cut from the movie in order for it to maintain an R-rating. That said, the MPAA may have missed a ince detail in Brad Pitt’s wardrobe, as the tank top he wears in one of the pivotal final scenes is actually made up of various pornographic images. Oops.

The movie is absolutely full of Easter eggs. It may take the most perceptive of fans to notice them, but Fight Club is full of amusing Easter eggs. For example, one scene in the movie is filmed in front of a marquee for the movie Seven Years in Tibet, which of course, stars Brad Pitt. The movie is well worth another watch for those willing to try and spot some more…
