It's hard to take moral absolutism seriously when you look at America's history. That same belief in one "right" way led to the horrible treatment of so many people. The violence, murder, rape, and theft were all justified by what? A sense of moral "rightness" that allowed slavery, the forced removal of Native Americans, and segregation. Absolutism has often been used to excuse awful actions, making them seem okay because they were seen as "right."
My 5yo knows that a "good guy" isn't a perfect person but rather someone who wants to be good and tries to be good, even if they stumble/fail along the way. He's 5.
The original Thunderbolts had a compelling story to them. Villains pretending to be heroes to gain access to power. But some of them liked the hero business and rebeled against their leader Zemo. Real easy, basic storyline.
@@brianm6965 As Syndrome said in The Incredibles, "Once everyone is super, no one will be." If everyone is evil, there is no evil, because there's nothing on the other end, nothing to compare it to. I get that you were probably trying to say "Everyone is flawed", but you can be flawed and still be and do good for the right reasons. This is why word choice can be extremely important.
@@Malkierian I think more nuance is needed. When you try to put everything neatly into a box and find out nothing fits, people tend to throw up their hands and assume that everything is just flat (perfect word) bad. It’s that sort of thinking that creates a character like Dreyfus’s. And we as a society has been there. Lots of people we assumed were good people are turning out to be monsters in real life. This is across the board, actors, priests, police, etc.
Yall stop over reacting like this guy We ain’t really meant to agree with valentinal, she’s not a good person and she cleary is out for her own reasons and form Other times she appears she isn’t acting like “this miss understood person”, like why are you all acting as if she is correct out of nowhere? Seriously clam down it’s just a line for tralier good god It’s not like as if this movie is gonna make it like as if reveal that “Captain America killed a kid” or “black pathner killed a whole family to stop a war”
Even if everyone is telling you that something wrong is something right. Even if the whole world is telling you to move, it is your duty to plant yourself like a tree, look them in the eye, and say, 'No, *you* move'! And that is why they hate him!
Cap’s line in The Avengers where he says “There’s only one god, ma’am” epitomises the difference for me. I’m not religious but that line symbolised the strong adherence to morals and values people held in the period Steve Rogers came from. It feels like a line Captain Kirk would have delivered. These days, the people writing these things are so dedicated to promoting degeneracy and immorality that they need to destroy any and all characters who would stand up for decency.
Who is they? Captain America was the hero in pretty much all of his movies as well as Endgame. The Earthly bad guys have been portrayed as the US government (at least in the Black Panther movies).
First comes tolerance, that then leads to acceptance. After you accept it, you will be pushed to celebrate it. Once you start celebrating it then you're expected to participate in it. And that is the basic strategy of making the intolerable common. If anywhere along that line you say you've had enough, they will have all kinds of names and labels, that aren't laudatory, to put upon you.
Which is why Hollywood used it to convince two generations of Western Civilization that, "love is love." It was wrong then, and it's wrong now. Something becoming common does not make it good.
They are using moral relativism so they can retcon all the evil characters like Maleficent, Sauron, Cruella Deville, etc. It allows them to tear down "heroes" like Captain America, James Kirk, Luke Skywalker.
It's funny how they made fun of that in the ducktales remake in the episode about the darkwing duck remake where the director is pretentious af and says but aren't we all the heros and villas of our own stories
Task master was especially bad because they not only gender swapped him, but they took a character who was so good at his job that you asked him to do a job, face him whatever he asked for, then got out of his way and let him do his thing, then turned him into a brainwashed meat puppet.
@@kyriss12 My goodness, Taskmaster was such an amazing character, who could have been the villain in an Avengers movie, just thrown to the side in a movie that most people didnt ask for and the rest had to learn to be careful what you ask for.
@@truthspreader1996 Yeah, and his entire story was completely different. In the comics, he was working for an evil company, and figured out about the bad stuff they were doing. So the company tried to kill him, and ended up killing his wife, but he survived with phasing technology he created. However, because of the blast, his body was fused to the phase technology
@@skitltes2587 tony stark's entire arc is based on the fact that he spends his life trying to use technology to take short cuts and ending wars before they start, you're right in saying that but eventually he does the right thing by laying on the wire, rather than trying to cut it. To quote the man who is the epitome of a good guy
The same "writers" would also probably say there are only good women and great women. Hence why women villains are now being painted in a sympathetic light; meanwhile, male heroes are being painted in a contemptuous light.
If there is no good and evil, there are no heroes. If there are no heroes, there are no role models. If there are no role models, you have no better self to strive to. Let the world accept you how you are, you're perfect 🤮
@@SubtleStairYou're right and wrong. No person is perfect but there is an ideal. The closer you get to the ideal the better. Having an ideal let's us know how we should act.
I concur,that plus lazy/horrible writing,the last two films that l’ve seen at the cinema,IF and Deadpool & Wolverine,it’s sad what we’re getting from Hollywood nowadays 😬

I really wish they'd tell the original Thunderbolts story. Supervillains pretending to be heroes to fill the void left by the Avengers as part of a scheme, only for several of them to decide they prefer being heroes is so much cooler than just being *The Suicide Squad We Have At Home.* I guess we just don't tell redemption stories anymore.
I don't mind moral relativism, if done well and nuanced. I just want good entertainment. If they are gonna delve into such notions, they should back it up with good writing.
Because when everyone is a bad guy, no one is. :P Disney is indeed though, extremely twisted and evil, racist, sexist (lawsuits against them) and they even gave money to the people who directly run the death camps in China so they could film their trash movie Mulan in that region. My conscience won't allow me to patronize any Disney products.

Some of the biggest blockbusters implements Christian themes, like redemption, forgiveness, goodness. We shouldn't be surprised that Hollywood is trying to erase those things.
@@phvisser13 I know right. Even the story of Christ originally didn't come from Christianity. It was ripped off from Horus was appeared around 1200 BCE who in turn was taken from some mesopotamian deity.
I mean... the "heroes journey" resonated with so many people for a reason. That despite being the same thing over and over ad infinitum, people still tuned in, bought tickets or read it.
@@jackburton1455except Horus was fake and Jesus is real. His name shows up in the Roman census in first century AD and the Shroud of Turin even has pollen granulates from spring flowers from Judea.
@sungleong The problem with that is The Winter Soldier is the name of the brainwashed assassin. They removed the brainwashing, so he's no longer The Winter Soldier. He's just Bucky, though he does still have the skills he had as the Winter Soldier.
@@DavidMartinez-ce3lp Yep, without the brainwashing, he's just the noble WW2 vet we saw in Cap Am 1 except now with boat loads of trauma. He's not an anti hero, he's just a damaged hero. And thus shouldn't be in the Thunderbolts. Technically neither should Yelena since she also got brainwashed.
Puss in Boots: The Last Wish showcased clear good and evil. It also had three types of villains: the sympathetic/redeemable antagonist with Goldie Locks, the force of nature and horror type antagonist with Death, and the irredeemably unsympathetic and pure evil antagonist with Big Jack Horner. 2 out of those 3 were able to get past their initial goals, with Goldie realizing she didn’t need a new family and realized she had everything she wanted, and Death being able to forgive Puss for cheating and mocking him and finally giving respect to the concept of mortality thus giving up his angry pursuit of him and no longer breaking the boundaries of his job as the grim reaper thus returning to being the embodiment of the universe’s concept of death who just collects already deceased souls instead of literally murdering them. The only person who could not change was Jack. He was so obsessed with believing he just needed more and disregarding anything and everyone else in his selfish ambition to steal all the magic in the world believing it would make him special which resulted in his demise. He got what he freaking deserved for all the terrible things he did and horrible acts he committed. Letting everyone’s lives but his own be forfeit. His uncaring behavior towards his subordinates and lackeys. His arrogance of not listening to the advice of the cricket. He like all evil doers got his well deserving punishment as evil ultimately fails and he who could not change was therefore punished.
You made a great point. However, I don't think Death was angry or breaking boundaries. That's what I love about him embodying the concept. All the way, he's pretty calm and chill, and if you look well, he never really tries to kill Puss, even though he could have done it easily. His goal was merely to frighten him, to force him into braving his fear, and respect life again. Wich he ultimately accomplished. It's not that he "forgive". He actually got exactly what he wanted.
@@benjaminthibieroz4155 yes. Although he seemed kinda pissed at first at puss’s sudden change in personality and perspective, after the long dedication he gave to stalking Puss and it amounted to it being almost like a waste of time. Idk just imo what I got from their last conversation. But yes, Death like I said is a force of nature and not necessarily good nor evil. He is instead a embodiment of mortality and was trying to teach Puss a lesson that he shouldn’t think life is meaningless and something to take for granted even for a creature who had 9 lives initially as life regardless should still be considered important and a life should be considered important to you and everyone around and close to you.
I would say only 2: death isn't "evil", its just nature. The point of the movie being that it is one's own Fear of death that is self-sabotaging and destructive.
I like it, but I can offer many counterexamples of bad men creating great art, including two of the biggest, Michaelangelo and Mozart. Bernini in his autobiography confesses to some grave sins, but his art is beautiful.
The original Thunderbolts comic had this cool idea where we were introduced to this new group of heroes led by this mysterious hero known as Citicen V. Then, surprise, it was revealed that Citizens V was Zemo and the rest of the “heroes” were actually old Avengers’ villains. It was a cool concept that made you wonder what these villains were up to. Furthermore, once they started to masquerade as heroes, you started to have some villains reconsidering whether they wanted to continue being villains. All of that cool stuff is gone and we are stuck with Marvel’s version of Suicide Squad featuring Earth’s most B list villains.
You nailed it! Their inability to simply just adapt great comics are infuriating to me. Then, i watch this trailer, and wonder; fuck. Are they brainwashing Barnes AGAIN???
@@allendean9807you don’t know that, I don’t know that we don’t know why he’s begin like that, the tralier isn’t mean to answer everything And heck it seems like they are leaning to “yeah there are just the B list” characters Like shit did you read the symptosis of this movie?
@@speedflashanimations221 All i made was a comment, and you decided to get butthurt, and climb onto a hill to die upon. Read comics. Forget the films. Get a marvel online account, and enjoy stories written by legends of fiction and superheroes. Film corporations will always change great works to suit what they think will make them the most money. This is the same cash grab as always. They have nothing new to tell us about Barnes, except that he was brainwashed, because they’ve already screwed up making him the new captain america, so fuck it. Lean on the hits. It took them 25 years to put wolverine in a fucking costume. They dont care about the comic books. So i dont care about the films. Enjoy your hill.
Yeah, when I first heard of the movie I was so excited since I loved the original comic series. Heck, I guessed they wouldn't do that version, but maybe one of the newer versions. But instead we got something that is only the Thunderbolts in name. It's quite disappointing
how the absolute blue fuck does a regular Human stop a Super Soldier with their strength? Marvel forgot about the whole new Captain America having the Super Soldier serum didn't they.
Also, the "super soldier" was that he was at the absolute limit of what a normal human can possibly achieve, so there is NO possibility of a normal human being stronger, maybe a good fraction of his strength but never equal or above.
Modern writers hate the very ideas of canon and continuity, that's why they can do stuff like pretend the Harley Quinn from the arkhamverse was always like Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn from the SS2 movie.
I was watching Superman 2 with my son this morning. It was colourful, properly lit, positive, heroic, all-American and had a clear sense of good vs evil. Pure cinema, pure entertainment. The superhero movie peaked there folks.
@@SharreIWright it wasn't actually. I did watch the Donner cut a while back - so maybe this is nostalgia on my part, but I personally prefer the Lester version on the whole. Louis shooting Clarke seemed a bit mental!
This issue exists because Hollywood insists on hiring young writers who are mentally stuck in junior high school and were bullied by their peers. They view the heroes as the "in crowd" (the popular kids) and the villains (their group) as the "misunderstood" or the "oppressed".
@@skitltes2587 Well I don’t watch woke trash shows, how am I supposed to know that. I was just taking a guess, you’re telling me me a character actually said that line? Word for word? lol 😆
@Theseus9-cl7ol she says "there bad and there's worst people" basically saying there's no good people. And if you don't watch woke shows and movies then why are you watching a video about a woke movie
@@skitltes2587 To find out about the show, I’ve been watching Computing Forever for a long time, I like his vids. That doesn’t mean have to sit down and watch woke garbage content. No way.
I've definitely been noticing this for awhile and it's far more direct now. Villains are now given backstories so we are made to sympathize with their evil decisions. The Devil had his own show as a detective, people sympathized with Thanos, the wicked witch is made to look like an misunderstood person - these are just few examples. Its crazy!!
Yea cause the point of watching a movie is to watch a protagonist change, the protagonist of a movie doesn't have to be a good guy they just need to have a character ark
The most satisfying villain protagonist stories the villain realises they are wrong and changes. The kinds of stories these writers seem to want to write (and a disturbing amount want to read/watch) is where the villain was right (‘everyone *is* just unfairly against me! They *are* all wrong and I *am* correct in everything! What everyone needed *was* for me to be in charge and just force everyone to think like me! Uh, I mean… the villain in this story I’m adapting…’). That fits for their self-insert purposes but highlights the utter lack of self reflection.
@@nonope1715a good example of what you said at the beginning is despicable me. Gru starts off as a villain, but then develops a soft spot for margo, edith, and agnes. At the end he ditches villainy to become a full time dad and a secret agent for a organization literally called anti-villain league. Shadow the hedgehog is a morally ambiguous character done well. Despite wanting to live in piece, he does some bad things and does not get rewarded for it. Like in sonic adventure 2. In sonic x shadow generations, black doom, an actual villain gives shadow new powers, but he uses them for good. Those are villain protagonists and morally grey characters done well.
The Captain America super-soldier formula worked like this according to its creator. good becomes great; bad becomes worse. The story of Steve Rogers confirmed that. The message that there is no good, just shades of bad and worse, is factually incorrect. Yes it's morally poisonous, but it's also just plain wrong.
*Standing, flipping, applause* sir. I am heartened to hear someone highlighting that there is, in fact, right and wrong; there is not "your truth" or "their truth", there is only The Truth. GBU sir.
I am not a religious person, but I understand your argument and I agree with your points. There seems to be a concerted effort to undermine established virtues and morals.
@@GH-ub7qz most of Hollywood is owned by a small group of people, and they decide what's being made and what isn't. So it's not that hard to imagine it's all a bit planned out.
I didn’t even finish the trailer because I’m so sick of trailers using well known songs and dramatizing them. I don’t want to be reminded of a Marvel trailer when I listen to a song I like.
i know what you mean,....... in every movie or series of them, they kill part of our childhood and will not stop to do so. i know if i never have seen there stuff ever,... i would be a happy man!
They don't go in opposite directions tho, they intertwine a lot. Like when you have to steal food to feed your family or have to kill someone to protect others. These are evil things being good for the greater good. To think that anything in this world is absolute is to close yourself of from reality
“Sometimes to find the light, we must first touch the darkness” is an amazing quote and is very true. There can be no light without the darkness…. To unlock your true self means confronting the evil that lays within you. I mean that’s the story of Tony Stark. Darth Vader, Bucky, I could literally list 250 characters real and fictional that all had to touch their own inner darkness to become a better person. The fact this is somehow lost on you is mind boggling. This is black and white thinking at it’s most dangerous. The roads of good and evil almost always start on the same path, that’s where the quote the road to hell is paved with good intentions comes from. I beg everyone that believes in this black and white thinking to please use critical thinking, even if for the first time in your life.
It's misandry. If ANYONE dared write a protagonist in a movie that said "there are no good WOMEN, only bad worse and nothing else," then half the internet would lose their shit.
I dont think so. things have changed. cancel culture, shaming, namecalling they have lost much of their power. its like toddler crying. eventually you just dont care if they want icream or not also freedom and change require sacrifices. they aways have
That's perhaps what was intended, but I interpreted it as meaning mankind, i.e., humanity. If it really is just misandry, then it's even more stupid than Dave gave it credit for. (On another note, as it says in the Bible, "There is no one righteous, no not one," but that's definitely not the context they intended. I'd be surprised if they even knew the verse.)
Just like every superhero ever, it's about people reaching their lowest and having to come out of it. These guys have just been at a low point for a long time
@@skitltes2587 yeah but they say it in a trailer to float the idea out there but dont show the villain say it in the trailer it is their way to get that message out there unassoiciated with the villain before people see the movie
Personally, im tired of the writers brain fucking Barnes. In the comics, he is winter soldier, breaks free of Hydra, hooks up with Romanoff, and BECOMES CAPTAIN AMERICA….. He doesn’t keep getting brainwashed, over and over and over. Hes not the mind control whipping boy, dammit. Barnes was BUCKY. He was, and IS a hero. Dammit. I hope hes not mind controlled again in this film.
none of this is correct. there are additive, and subtractive models. light is additive. Wavelengths. Adding light, creates white light. no light is black. hue is color, saturation is the AMOUNT/purity of color. black is the absence of light. Grey is all wavelengths in balance. Tv's/monitors use red, green, blue phophors to short hand create all colors. its not really, but the EYE's CONE cells come in 3 forms. red, green and blue... and pick up those colors, and our brains fill in the rest. now, paint is subtractive. paper is white. for subtractive pigments, color is mostly the literal material. adding black paint is called shade, adding white paint is called tint. adding grey to grey, just makes grey. Adding BLACK to something makes it black. and if you want pure black, well.. just use black, nothing else. as adding black to say red, will just make a dark red. here is where the primary color's of red, yellow, blue comes into play.(or cyan, yellow, magenta, and K(Key, aka black for print) mixing those for purple, orange, and green. so, grey is either just a grey base, or shaded white, or tinted black. putting all the colors together here, creates brown.
@@Cassandra112 putting all the colors together here, creates brown.- good analogy. so if you combine all the colors of the rainbow of LGBTQ+++ it will turn into brown which is same color of a meaningliss lump of feces hence why a piece of art or media laced with DEI/identity politics turns into a souless piece of sh**
Good point about the color palate. I wasn't a huge fan of the Wolvie/Deadpool film but I have to give credit that both leads had great, bright colors to their costumes and I'd like to see more like that in superhero films.
Humans justify evil, their sin, all the time. You see it in the defense of John Walker's murder of that terrorist who wasn't fighting back and Walker murdered him in revenge.

LORD willing, all humans may commit sin of almost every kind (gay, straight), and that's wrong, and all humans sin, as God tells us through the The Holy Bible, "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." The Holy Bible also says, "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.", "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." and, “For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."
Did dy and Ep Ste In go all the way to the top. If only people really understand just how bad things really are behind closed doors. Ezekiel and Jesus has spoken. Too bad churches don't teach what they said.
No, that's a reach. The tone is a lot more serious and they're not going to kill off anybody, at least as a joke. You're just seeing slightly similar premises and making that leap. Also SS was also with D-list characters, besides Harley. That's not important.

Echo Chamberlain just released a video about why Disney keeps making villains sympathetic and I think it ties well with everything you said here. Worth the watch.
I do not think moral greyness is a problem because the complexity of life demands nuances. MCU/Disney's problem is their writers are simple-minded folks who could not tell the difference between grey and black.
I find it rather problematic since most “moral grayness” in stories I encounter isn’t something like a good or well-intentioned person has done bad things, characters choosing the least-worst option, or villains going after a good goal the wrong way. Instead, intentions justify horrible actions, the protagonist is always right, or doing bad things to “evil” people is okay. Life isn’t morally gray at times because most actions aren’t morally gray. People are. For example, stealing is wrong. Historically, that’s a pretty universal belief. Stealing because you have no money, jobs are scarce, and you’re only stealing food or money that is only spent on necessities, however, is easier to forgive than stealing because it’s supposedly an easy way to make money or to get nice stuff for free. The former makes for a potentially interesting character. The latter is one of the henchmen that gets beat up in a superhero movie or show.
@@John-fk2ky I agree that intentions don't justify horrible actions. Let's take WandaVision for an example. While torturing the entire town was atrocious and unforgivable, Wanda had done a brave thing by bringing down the Hex and forgoing her happiness with two kids and Hex-Vision. After putting on her hoodie, had Wanda left Westview without saying a word, I think many people may have even felt sympathies for Wanda. Instead you had Monica's infamous "THESE PEOPLE WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND THE SUFFERING YOU WENT THROUGH" which showed that Disney writers' simple-mind cannot comprehend that being sad is not an excuse for torturing people FFS. These sociopath writers cannot tell the difference between grey and black.
It’s definitely an issue considering these are superHERO movies. Heros are supposed to be good guys. They can’t be bad guys. Otherwise they’re just another character. That’s what’s so boring and awful about these movies. No one is interested in evil people just being evil with slightly more evil people. What’s the point? It destroys the genre and what makes these characters lovable.

Hollywood - and evil people in general - love philosophies that excuse their behaviour because someone else is worse. They are *_relatively_* good, despite doing evil. It's all on a spectrum, greys instead of black and white. John Durrill's song 'The Good Guys and The Bad Guys' nailed it over 40 years ago - it was used in _Any Which Way You Can_ (1980) - with 🎶 The bad guys always claim / both sides are the same 🎶
It all comes down to writing. Thunderbolts, The Joker, The Penguin, and even Suicide Squad are all examples of Hollywood having a very warped idea of right and wrong.
PLEASE, you, and EVERYONE, if you haven't already, embrace the One True Only God YHWH Jehovah, Only One Jesus Christ His Only Begotten Son and Lord and Savior of our souls and the Only One Holy Spirit. God is good. God is love. Jesus IS coming. Your soul depends on it! I have seen God act in my life. He saved my soul, changed my heart, changed my mind, helped people through me, took care of people in my life, people I hurt before I found God. God is the only reason I was able to reconcile with my dad before he died. God worked through Jesus Christ to save our souls. Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins. Believe in your heart and confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and that God raised Him from the dead and you will be saved. Be baptized in The Holy Spirit, and if He wills, water as well. Repent of your sins, accept God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit into your heart, that Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins. For God so loved the world that He gave His only Begotten Son Jesus Christ, that all who believe on Him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jesus Christ is The Way, The Truth and The Life. No one comes to the Father Jehovah God but through Him. Not long after I got saved I prayed to God for help understanding the Holy Bible, and that same day someone knocked on my door asking me if I wanted to understand the Bible. The Holy Bible says, "love thy enemy", "turn the other cheek", "If your enemy is hungry, feed him", "if he is thirsty, give him a drink", "pray for those who persecute you", "do not repay evil for evil" LORD willing, all humans may commit sin of almost every kind (gay, straight), and that's wrong, and all humans sin, as God tells us through the The Holy Bible, "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." The Holy Bible also says, "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.", "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." and, “For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."

I've always enjoyed your videos, but this is the best one you've had yet. You've encapsulated the reasons I hate the trend of glorifying the villains and making them look fun and entertaining.

raise a generation to think good and evil is purely subjective it makes it easier to commit heinous acts with no one speaking out.

"From my view it is the jedi who are evil"
It's hard to take moral absolutism seriously when you look at America's history. That same belief in one "right" way led to the horrible treatment of so many people. The violence, murder, rape, and theft were all justified by what? A sense of moral "rightness" that allowed slavery, the forced removal of Native Americans, and segregation. Absolutism has often been used to excuse awful actions, making them seem okay because they were seen as "right."
"Truly, whoever can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities"
My 5yo knows that a "good guy" isn't a perfect person but rather someone who wants to be good and tries to be good, even if they stumble/fail along the way. He's 5.
Good kid 👍🏾
All I’m hearing is that you’re a good parent
Share advice on how you raised your kid cause it sounds like you're doing a great job
We need more parents like you in our society to raise children with a strong moral foundation.
This makes so much sense also.
The original Thunderbolts had a compelling story to them. Villains pretending to be heroes to gain access to power. But some of them liked the hero business and rebeled against their leader Zemo.
Real easy, basic storyline.
Exactly. And if they had a plan or any sense Marvel should have executed that storyline immediately as a follow up to Endgame.
@@jkd1975 it would have been the perfect storyline for that 5-year Gap
This would be fun
Perfect storyline for between Infinity War and Endgame.. they blew it.
@jkd1975 it was set up in 2020. It's their own fault, taking 5 years to follow up on it. If Tbolts came out in 21, for instance, it could have helped.
Evil is always the first to tell you “There is no evil.”
I didn’t take the line to say there is no evil. Just that everyone is evil.
Which by no means is a justification to not try to do the right thing.😊
@@brianm6965 As Syndrome said in The Incredibles, "Once everyone is super, no one will be." If everyone is evil, there is no evil, because there's nothing on the other end, nothing to compare it to. I get that you were probably trying to say "Everyone is flawed", but you can be flawed and still be and do good for the right reasons. This is why word choice can be extremely important.
@@Malkierian I think more nuance is needed. When you try to put everything neatly into a box and find out nothing fits, people tend to throw up their hands and assume that everything is just flat (perfect word) bad.
It’s that sort of thinking that creates a character like Dreyfus’s.
And we as a society has been there. Lots of people we assumed were good people are turning out to be monsters in real life.
This is across the board, actors, priests, police, etc.
Yall stop over reacting like this guy
We ain’t really meant to agree with valentinal, she’s not a good person and she cleary is out for her own reasons and form Other times she appears she isn’t acting like “this miss understood person”, like why are you all acting as if she is correct out of nowhere?
Seriously clam down it’s just a line for tralier good god
It’s not like as if this movie is gonna make it like as if reveal that
“Captain America killed a kid” or “black pathner killed a whole family to stop a war”
“The greatest trick the devil ever played was convincing the world he didn’t exist”
Keep in mind, they think Captain America is a “bad guy” simply by not bending to their will.
Even if everyone is telling you that something wrong is something right.
Even if the whole world is telling you to move,
it is your duty to plant yourself like a tree,
look them in the eye, and say,
'No, *you* move'!
And that is why they hate him!
Cap’s line in The Avengers where he says “There’s only one god, ma’am” epitomises the difference for me. I’m not religious but that line symbolised the strong adherence to morals and values people held in the period Steve Rogers came from. It feels like a line Captain Kirk would have delivered. These days, the people writing these things are so dedicated to promoting degeneracy and immorality that they need to destroy any and all characters who would stand up for decency.
Just like Vietcongs, Soviets and Cubans.
@@dreamcastfanCaptain Kirk did deliver a line like that. “Mankind has no need for gods. We find the One quite adequate.” Season 2, episode 4.
Who is they? Captain America was the hero in pretty much all of his movies as well as Endgame.
The Earthly bad guys have been portrayed as the US government (at least in the Black Panther movies).
The purpose of moral relativism is banality; to slowly condition you to tolerate the intolerable.
This is in fact a classic trick of psychology. You don't have to force your enemy to move if you can trick them into slowly moving an inch at a time.
First comes tolerance, that then leads to acceptance. After you accept it, you will be pushed to celebrate it. Once you start celebrating it then you're expected to participate in it. And that is the basic strategy of making the intolerable common. If anywhere along that line you say you've had enough, they will have all kinds of names and labels, that aren't laudatory, to put upon you.
Truth, well said.
Which is why Hollywood used it to convince two generations of Western Civilization that, "love is love." It was wrong then, and it's wrong now. Something becoming common does not make it good.
Why do we assume that Julia Dreyfus being a moral relativist is going to be portrayed as a good thing when the movie comes out?
They are using moral relativism so they can retcon all the evil characters like Maleficent, Sauron, Cruella Deville, etc. It allows them to tear down "heroes" like Captain America, James Kirk, Luke Skywalker.
It's funny how they made fun of that in the ducktales remake in the episode about the darkwing duck remake where the director is pretentious af and says but aren't we all the heros and villas of our own stories

I still hate the gender swaps for ghost and task master. That was unnecessary with all the female characters in Marvel comics.
Technically, it's Task Mistress now
Task master was especially bad because they not only gender swapped him, but they took a character who was so good at his job that you asked him to do a job, face him whatever he asked for, then got out of his way and let him do his thing, then turned him into a brainwashed meat puppet.
Wait, Ghost was a male in the comics!?
@@kyriss12
My goodness, Taskmaster was such an amazing character, who could have been the villain in an Avengers movie, just thrown to the side in a movie that most people didnt ask for and the rest had to learn to be careful what you ask for.
@@truthspreader1996 Yeah, and his entire story was completely different. In the comics, he was working for an evil company, and figured out about the bad stuff they were doing. So the company tried to kill him, and ended up killing his wife, but he survived with phasing technology he created. However, because of the blast, his body was fused to the phase technology
There are only bad guys and worse guys, said by a character in a universe that only exists because a good guy died to save it.
But that good guy did very bad things and brought about horrible moments. Sure he's a hero but he also has done bad things
@@skitltes2587 tony stark's entire arc is based on the fact that he spends his life trying to use technology to take short cuts and ending wars before they start, you're right in saying that but eventually he does the right thing by laying on the wire, rather than trying to cut it. To quote the man who is the epitome of a good guy
The same "writers" would also probably say there are only good women and great women.
Hence why women villains are now being painted in a sympathetic light; meanwhile, male heroes are being painted in a contemptuous light.
@@skitltes2587 making mistakes doesnt make you a bad guy
intentionally doing bad things makes one a bad guy
And now you see why Hollywood demonize Superman.

Winter soldier should always be an anti hero, I hate that they make him a boy scout in the TV show.
Yea exactly 💯
@sungleong The problem with that is The Winter Soldier is the name of the brainwashed assassin. They removed the brainwashing, so he's no longer The Winter Soldier. He's just Bucky, though he does still have the skills he had as the Winter Soldier.
My God, yes.
@@DavidMartinez-ce3lp Yep, without the brainwashing, he's just the noble WW2 vet we saw in Cap Am 1 except now with boat loads of trauma. He's not an anti hero, he's just a damaged hero. And thus shouldn't be in the Thunderbolts. Technically neither should Yelena since she also got brainwashed.
Puss in Boots: The Last Wish showcased clear good and evil. It also had three types of villains: the sympathetic/redeemable antagonist with Goldie Locks, the force of nature and horror type antagonist with Death, and the irredeemably unsympathetic and pure evil antagonist with Big Jack Horner. 2 out of those 3 were able to get past their initial goals, with Goldie realizing she didn’t need a new family and realized she had everything she wanted, and Death being able to forgive Puss for cheating and mocking him and finally giving respect to the concept of mortality thus giving up his angry pursuit of him and no longer breaking the boundaries of his job as the grim reaper thus returning to being the embodiment of the universe’s concept of death who just collects already deceased souls instead of literally murdering them. The only person who could not change was Jack. He was so obsessed with believing he just needed more and disregarding anything and everyone else in his selfish ambition to steal all the magic in the world believing it would make him special which resulted in his demise. He got what he freaking deserved for all the terrible things he did and horrible acts he committed. Letting everyone’s lives but his own be forfeit. His uncaring behavior towards his subordinates and lackeys. His arrogance of not listening to the advice of the cricket. He like all evil doers got his well deserving punishment as evil ultimately fails and he who could not change was therefore punished.
You made a great point. However, I don't think Death was angry or breaking boundaries. That's what I love about him embodying the concept. All the way, he's pretty calm and chill, and if you look well, he never really tries to kill Puss, even though he could have done it easily. His goal was merely to frighten him, to force him into braving his fear, and respect life again. Wich he ultimately accomplished. It's not that he "forgive". He actually got exactly what he wanted.
yes,it was an enjoyable film,the little dog was my favorite character 😊
@@benjaminthibieroz4155 yes. Although he seemed kinda pissed at first at puss’s sudden change in personality and perspective, after the long dedication he gave to stalking Puss and it amounted to it being almost like a waste of time. Idk just imo what I got from their last conversation. But yes, Death like I said is a force of nature and not necessarily good nor evil. He is instead a embodiment of mortality and was trying to teach Puss a lesson that he shouldn’t think life is meaningless and something to take for granted even for a creature who had 9 lives initially as life regardless should still be considered important and a life should be considered important to you and everyone around and close to you.
I would say only 2: death isn't "evil", its just nature. The point of the movie being that it is one's own Fear of death that is self-sabotaging and destructive.
But Thundebrolts will be similar to Goldie locks where the characters realize that there's a better life out there worth fighting for

Evil always tries to convince you that there is no difference between good and evil. Always....
The original Thunderbolts comic had this cool idea where we were introduced to this new group of heroes led by this mysterious hero known as Citicen V. Then, surprise, it was revealed that Citizens V was Zemo and the rest of the “heroes” were actually old Avengers’ villains. It was a cool concept that made you wonder what these villains were up to. Furthermore, once they started to masquerade as heroes, you started to have some villains reconsidering whether they wanted to continue being villains.
All of that cool stuff is gone and we are stuck with Marvel’s version of Suicide Squad featuring Earth’s most B list villains.
there aren´t even good villains left.
You nailed it!
Their inability to simply just adapt great comics are infuriating to me. Then, i watch this trailer, and wonder; fuck. Are they brainwashing Barnes AGAIN???
@@allendean9807you don’t know that, I don’t know that we don’t know why he’s begin like that, the tralier isn’t mean to answer everything

@@speedflashanimations221
All i made was a comment, and you decided to get butthurt, and climb onto a hill to die upon.
Read comics. Forget the films. Get a marvel online account, and enjoy stories written by legends of fiction and superheroes.
Film corporations will always change great works to suit what they think will make them the most money. This is the same cash grab as always. They have nothing new to tell us about Barnes, except that he was brainwashed, because they’ve already screwed up making him the new captain america, so fuck it. Lean on the hits.
It took them 25 years to put wolverine in a fucking costume.
They dont care about the comic books.
So i dont care about the films.
Enjoy your hill.
Yeah, when I first heard of the movie I was so excited since I loved the original comic series. Heck, I guessed they wouldn't do that version, but maybe one of the newer versions. But instead we got something that is only the Thunderbolts in name. It's quite disappointing
how the absolute blue fuck does a regular Human stop a Super Soldier with their strength? Marvel forgot about the whole new Captain America having the Super Soldier serum didn't they.
It’s the metaphorical power of vagina over penis.
Also, the "super soldier" was that he was at the absolute limit of what a normal human can possibly achieve, so there is NO possibility of a normal human being stronger, maybe a good fraction of his strength but never equal or above.
Modern writers hate the very ideas of canon and continuity, that's why they can do stuff like pretend the Harley Quinn from the arkhamverse was always like Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn from the SS2 movie.
oh...but she's a girl boss...so she can't fail.
But she… didn’t, that’s why taskmaster had to show up and bail her out.
So, it's basically Marvel's *Suicide Squad*
Exactly 😂
No, Dave, you're not overdoing it. You're spot on 👏
This is exactly why I don’t like this. I want heroes. Not evil people masquerading as heroes.
Your radical moral views are......refreshing.
I was watching Superman 2 with my son this morning. It was colourful, properly lit, positive, heroic, all-American and had a clear sense of good vs evil. Pure cinema, pure entertainment. The superhero movie peaked there folks.
Superman I & II is the best superhero movie till this day.

@@hoisin75 that film is crap
This issue exists because Hollywood insists on hiring young writers who are mentally stuck in junior high school and were bullied by their peers. They view the heroes as the "in crowd" (the popular kids) and the villains (their group) as the "misunderstood" or the "oppressed".
*fanfic writers
Because the message is evil! And they know it
“There is no good or bad! 😡”…….something evil people like to say.
That's why the villain of the movie said it, you're suppose to be critical enough to recognize that
@@skitltes2587 Well I don’t watch woke trash shows, how am I supposed to know that. I was just taking a guess, you’re telling me me a character actually said that line? Word for word? lol 😆
@Theseus9-cl7ol she says "there bad and there's worst people" basically saying there's no good people. And if you don't watch woke shows and movies then why are you watching a video about a woke movie
@@skitltes2587 To find out about the show, I’ve been watching Computing Forever for a long time, I like his vids. That doesn’t mean have to sit down and watch woke garbage content. No way.
I've definitely been noticing this for awhile and it's far more direct now. Villains are now given backstories so we are made to sympathize with their evil decisions. The Devil had his own show as a detective, people sympathized with Thanos, the wicked witch is made to look like an misunderstood person - these are just few examples. Its crazy!!
Yea cause the point of watching a movie is to watch a protagonist change, the protagonist of a movie doesn't have to be a good guy they just need to have a character ark
The most satisfying villain protagonist stories the villain realises they are wrong and changes.
The kinds of stories these writers seem to want to write (and a disturbing amount want to read/watch) is where the villain was right (‘everyone *is* just unfairly against me! They *are* all wrong and I *am* correct in everything! What everyone needed *was* for me to be in charge and just force everyone to think like me! Uh, I mean… the villain in this story I’m adapting…’). That fits for their self-insert purposes but highlights the utter lack of self reflection.
I also blame the success of the 1st Maleficent for this.
@@AnnaDraconida Yeah, that movie probably contributed to this a lot.
@@nonope1715a good example of what you said at the beginning is despicable me. Gru starts off as a villain, but then develops a soft spot for margo, edith, and agnes. At the end he ditches villainy to become a full time dad and a secret agent for a organization literally called anti-villain league. Shadow the hedgehog is a morally ambiguous character done well. Despite wanting to live in piece, he does some bad things and does not get rewarded for it. Like in sonic adventure 2. In sonic x shadow generations, black doom, an actual villain gives shadow new powers, but he uses them for good. Those are villain protagonists and morally grey characters done well.
The Captain America super-soldier formula worked like this according to its creator. good becomes great; bad becomes worse. The story of Steve Rogers confirmed that. The message that there is no good, just shades of bad and worse, is factually incorrect. Yes it's morally poisonous, but it's also just plain wrong.
Overdone dystopia…, muddled bland backgrounds, and Denizens of Venice Beach trying to justify their relations with their gardeners.

"Shades of grey" is just another boring overused postmodernist trope stuck with modern culture since the late 1980s
i never watched shades of grey :D
Since Ancient Greece.
I didn’t even finish the trailer because I’m so sick of trailers using well known songs and dramatizing them. I don’t want to be reminded of a Marvel trailer when I listen to a song I like.
i know what you mean,....... in every movie or series of them, they kill part of our childhood and will not stop to do so. i know if i never have seen there stuff ever,... i would be a happy man!
As has been said, good and evil are not parallel paths but rather exclusive roads that go in opposite directions.
and good is there keep evil ad bay and not if we kill just the thought of being evil every one goes good or bad depending how you like it.
They don't go in opposite directions tho, they intertwine a lot. Like when you have to steal food to feed your family or have to kill someone to protect others. These are evil things being good for the greater good. To think that anything in this world is absolute is to close yourself of from reality
“Sometimes to find the light, we must first touch the darkness” is an amazing quote and is very true. There can be no light without the darkness…. To unlock your true self means confronting the evil that lays within you. I mean that’s the story of Tony Stark. Darth Vader, Bucky, I could literally list 250 characters real and fictional that all had to touch their own inner darkness to become a better person. The fact this is somehow lost on you is mind boggling. This is black and white thinking at it’s most dangerous. The roads of good and evil almost always start on the same path, that’s where the quote the road to hell is paved with good intentions comes from. I beg everyone that believes in this black and white thinking to please use critical thinking, even if for the first time in your life.
@TheDaveCullenShow Your best video yet IMO. Nailed it. A message we all need to hear right now. 👍
I think you made a great point and you articulated that final monologue very well, I always love hearing your opinion thank you
It's misandry. If ANYONE dared write a protagonist in a movie that said "there are no good WOMEN, only bad worse and nothing else," then half the internet would lose their shit.
I dont think so. things have changed. cancel culture, shaming, namecalling they have lost much of their power.
its like toddler crying. eventually you just dont care if they want icream or not
also freedom and change require sacrifices. they aways have
That's perhaps what was intended, but I interpreted it as meaning mankind, i.e., humanity. If it really is just misandry, then it's even more stupid than Dave gave it credit for.
(On another note, as it says in the Bible, "There is no one righteous, no not one," but that's definitely not the context they intended. I'd be surprised if they even knew the verse.)
To be fair "losing its shit" it the purpose of half the Internet.
"Man" is also short for "human." Pretty sure that's what was meant.
I always say: "It's called The Good Fight, not The Good Easy".

Yes, they have been creating their own feedback loop for decades now.

Biggest problem is that they are all at worst, anti-heroes. Thunderbolts are all about villains becoming heroes.
Just like every superhero ever, it's about people reaching their lowest and having to come out of it. These guys have just been at a low point for a long time
The writers see themselves in the villains and their quest for power and so can't write that as evil.
But it was said by the probably villian, if you've watched any modern marvel movies the character that said it is a clearly bad person
@@skitltes2587 yeah but they say it in a trailer to float the idea out there but dont show the villain say it in the trailer
it is their way to get that message out there unassoiciated with the villain before people see the movie

An excuse to dump the hero's journey and replace it with Rey Palpatine.
Personally, im tired of the writers brain fucking Barnes. In the comics, he is winter soldier, breaks free of Hydra, hooks up with Romanoff, and BECOMES CAPTAIN AMERICA….. He doesn’t keep getting brainwashed, over and over and over. Hes not the mind control whipping boy, dammit. Barnes was BUCKY. He was, and IS a hero. Dammit. I hope hes not mind controlled again in this film.
Here's a interesting fact: Grey is technically a lighter shade of Black 🖤 , and when you put more greys together it eventually becomes black.
and we all are allready blackend out, of their storys. they take every excuse they want and not the biggest apologie, will save us!
If you put all the colours together you obtain black
none of this is correct. there are additive, and subtractive models. light is additive. Wavelengths. Adding light, creates white light. no light is black.
hue is color, saturation is the AMOUNT/purity of color. black is the absence of light. Grey is all wavelengths in balance. Tv's/monitors use red, green, blue phophors to short hand create all colors. its not really, but the EYE's CONE cells come in 3 forms. red, green and blue... and pick up those colors, and our brains fill in the rest.
now, paint is subtractive. paper is white. for subtractive pigments, color is mostly the literal material. adding black paint is called shade, adding white paint is called tint.
adding grey to grey, just makes grey. Adding BLACK to something makes it black. and if you want pure black, well.. just use black, nothing else. as adding black to say red, will just make a dark red. here is where the primary color's of red, yellow, blue comes into play.(or cyan, yellow, magenta, and K(Key, aka black for print) mixing those for purple, orange, and green.
so, grey is either just a grey base, or shaded white, or tinted black. putting all the colors together here, creates brown.
@@Cassandra112 putting all the colors together here, creates brown.- good analogy. so if you combine all the colors of the rainbow of LGBTQ+++ it will turn into brown which is same color of a meaningliss lump of feces hence why a piece of art or media laced with DEI/identity politics turns into a souless piece of sh**

Humans justify evil, their sin, all the time. You see it in the defense of John Walker's murder of that terrorist who wasn't fighting back and Walker murdered him in revenge. Still wrong, no matter what, as The Holy Bible speaks against humans taking vengeance. You see it in porn and lust.

I have seen God act in my life. He saved my soul, changed my heart, changed my mind, helped people through me, took care of people in my life, people I hurt before I found God. God is the only reason I was able to reconcile with my dad before he died.

Believe in your heart and confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and that God raised Him from the dead and you will be saved. Be baptized in The Holy Spirit, and if He wills, water as well. Repent of your sins, accept God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit into your heart, that Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins.

The Holy Bible says, "love thy enemy", "turn the other cheek", "If your enemy is hungry, feed him", "if he is thirsty, give him a drink", "pray for those who persecute you", "do not repay evil for evil".
LORD willing, all humans may commit sin of almost every kind (gay, straight), and that's wrong, and all humans sin, as God tells us through the The Holy Bible, "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." The Holy Bible also says, "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.", "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." and, “For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."

Echo Chamberlain just released a video about why Disney keeps making villains sympathetic and I think it ties well with everything you said here. Worth the watch.
I do not think moral greyness is a problem because the complexity of life demands nuances.
MCU/Disney's problem is their writers are simple-minded folks who could not tell the difference between grey and black.
I find it rather problematic since most “moral grayness” in stories I encounter isn’t something like a good or well-intentioned person has done bad things, characters choosing the least-worst option, or villains going after a good goal the wrong way. Instead, intentions justify horrible actions, the protagonist is always right, or doing bad things to “evil” people is okay. Life isn’t morally gray at times because most actions aren’t morally gray. People are. For example, stealing is wrong. Historically, that’s a pretty universal belief. Stealing because you have no money, jobs are scarce, and you’re only stealing food or money that is only spent on necessities, however, is easier to forgive than stealing because it’s supposedly an easy way to make money or to get nice stuff for free. The former makes for a potentially interesting character. The latter is one of the henchmen that gets beat up in a superhero movie or show.
@@John-fk2ky I agree that intentions don't justify horrible actions.
Let's take WandaVision for an example. While torturing the entire town was atrocious and unforgivable, Wanda had done a brave thing by bringing down the Hex and forgoing her happiness with two kids and Hex-Vision. After putting on her hoodie, had Wanda left Westview without saying a word, I think many people may have even felt sympathies for Wanda.
Instead you had Monica's infamous "THESE PEOPLE WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND THE SUFFERING YOU WENT THROUGH" which showed that Disney writers' simple-mind cannot comprehend that being sad is not an excuse for torturing people FFS. These sociopath writers cannot tell the difference between grey and black.
It’s definitely an issue considering these are superHERO movies. Heros are supposed to be good guys. They can’t be bad guys. Otherwise they’re just another character. That’s what’s so boring and awful about these movies. No one is interested in evil people just being evil with slightly more evil people. What’s the point? It destroys the genre and what makes these characters lovable.

For God so loved the world that He gave His only Begotten Son Jesus Christ, that all who believe on Him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jesus Christ is The Way, The Truth and The Life. No one comes to the Father Jehovah God but through Him.
Not long after I got saved I prayed to God for help understanding the Holy Bible, and that same day someone knocked on my door asking me if I wanted to understand the Bible.
The Holy Bible says, "love thy enemy", "turn the other cheek", "If your enemy is hungry, feed him", "if he is thirsty, give him a drink", "pray for those who persecute you", "do not repay evil for evil"
LORD willing, all humans may commit sin of almost every kind (gay, straight), and that's wrong, and all humans sin, as God tells us through the The Holy Bible, "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." The Holy Bible also says, "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.", "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." and, “For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."
"There is no good and evil, only shades of grey."
"So, do you think that Donald Trump -"
"Hell no! He's pure evil!"
Fun fact: this idea that our stories have a moral utility to society dates all the way back to Socrates and Plato, it's actually what led to Socrates execution for heresy when he spoke out against the amorality that had slipped into the greek mythology

I have seen God act in my life. He saved my soul, changed my heart, changed my mind, helped people through me, took care of people in my life, people I hurt before I found God. God is the only reason I was able to reconcile with my dad before he died.

Excellent commentary.

I've always enjoyed your videos, but this is the best one you've had yet. You've encapsulated the reasons I hate the trend of glorifying the villains and making them look fun and entertaining. The heroes were the reason we made these fantasies and we were to aspire to better ourselves because of them. Thank you for the spiritual angle as well. Your platform is a way for all our voices to be heard even if we don't agree on certain things.
Who else will be skipping this one?
So I replied
Got to the man bashing bit and deleted my comment and now I'm with ya buddy!
Who else makes stupid comments on youtube for "relevance"
Oh, you do. 🙄
Before D&W the last time I saw an MCU project was werewolf. So that was,what? 2-3 years ago?
Not me.
Skipped the last what 15 now.
Everything is just so depressing nowadays. It’s heartbreaking. These movies are all by design to destroy the fabric of societies.
