  • This is a compilation of all the clips containing General Modula, the main antagonist of Sym-Bionic Titan, a show that aired on Cartoon Network in 2010 and has unfortunately since been canceled.
    I do not own any of the footage used in this video. All clips are owned by Turner EST and the show itself was created by Genndy Tartakovsky.
    If you do like the show, please support it legally to encourage the creation of a second season.
    Also, if you would like to learn more about the show, I suggest watching this video here: • WAIT... Remember Sym-B...
    Thank you.

    I like how he started out not killing any of his subordinate's who failed him but as the series goes on and his frustration grows he starts killing them left right and center.

      I mean, that's annoying either way. It's such a lame way to make someone seem intimidating. It worked with Vader because he only killed those he tasked with very important things and was supposed to basically be a "don't fuck this up or you will be replaced and there won't be second chances" sort of thing.
      Now people just use it as a cheap way to intimidate.

      God, man, I dont really remember symbiotic titan too much cause I was kinda getting tired of cartoon network at the time (growing up sucks) but watching the part of him killing that one loyalist with his bare hands made me think of how absolutely insane it is to not let people who may have a good vision for a series actually make what they want due to censorship or fear of backlash blah blah blah.
      One of the best cartoon series ever, Batman TAS, was full of violence and dark themes and death....AND KIDS LOVED IT!!! Kids understand what goes on in the world to an extent, they arent stupid, they WANT to see good writing and get sucked into the drama, the emotion, the storytelling.
      God, it just saddens me that NO cartoon producer now would EVER let something like that scene fly, and its only been a decade since this show aired...

    I like how Modula acknowledges at times when he's told that he will be stopped or is mad by saying "Perhaps" or "hmm, someday, maybe, just not today." I like a villain that knows there is always a chance of defeat even if things are going well at the moment.

      It is the mark of the most dangerous of villains. Arrogance is the villain killer, for when you see no chance of defeat you make no true effort to win. Someone who knows what it means to fight on the back foot though, they are a villains that fight the longest and most bitterly.

    I have a theory that Mondula is actually dead and that hat of his, isn't actually a hat but some sort of brain worm that is controlling Mondula's corpse into some sort of queen hive. Having a hat that can cast tech magic and move where Mondula goes feels strange but familiar? If the show got another season, I'd expect Illana to accidentally knock the hat's disguise off while battling him and see the gruesome parasite teeth-deep in Mondula's head-meat. If our human-alien duo are physiologically similar to us humans, that must mean Mondula is susceptible to the same limits of us humans?

      Or it could be a technical introduction into his brain, we were not just told that the conspiracy against the monarch was being prepared for a huge amount of time, perhaps behind the resurrected Modula there are forces much larger, we have already been shown other enigma in this story. Perhaps they wanted to make a cruel tyrant and dictator out of him in order to conquer all worlds and instill fear and despair in everyone, because before that his character was completely different, but he became arrogant and cruel, but in fact he is only part of the plan and only one of the tools. Perhaps behind everything there are not even aliens, but the upper classes of their state, the military and imperialists, eager to redivide the universe, destroy competitive ones like us, and other goals. It is terrible to imagine that his consciousness and memory have remained the same, but technical intervention completely changes whether he wants it or not and he only has to succumb to his new nature of a tyrant.

    I would argue that, based on the personality change from what he was like when he was younger, it’s likely that General Modula, as we see here, is not the same Modula from the past; as if something - or someone - has altered him.
    It’s likely he did “die,” in a sense, but was brought back to life in some form and altered to be less “Modula, the loyal general to the King” and more “The Tyrant Modula.” I wouldn’t doubt that he is, in truth, in a symbiotic relationship of his own with some form of creature that has been feeding the negative emotions (that of anger and vengeance) in exchange for keeping him alive.
    It would be rather fitting for a show built upon the idea of symbiotic relationships for the antagonist to be in such a relationship. However, where the heroes are in a positive symbiotic relationship (one that is mutually beneficial), the villain is in a negative symbiotic relationship (one that is malignant or outright parasitic).

    I loved the theory that the real Modula was dead, and this is actually a possessed corpse using his memories and skills to overthrow the king and take over his kingdom. it would explain why we never see his full face. it's always hidden under the bill of his hat. plus, the king keeps insisting that Modula was killed, and Modula does say, "Well, not quite dead."
    This is a corpse on puppet strings. if it was true, this would have been one of the darkest characters Gennedy has made yet.

      @muttproductions2536 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      I have a slightly different theory that when Modula says "well, not quite dead," he doesn't mean an actual, physical death. I doubt using a corpse as a puppet would be effective for long, as eventually it would wither and decay. My guess is that whatever parasitic entity is controlling Modula's body is basically fueling his negative thoughts and feelings, using those emotions and his memories in creating a more twisted copy of Modula's personality, while suppressing the real Modula so that he can't retake control, effectively "killing" Modula. But it needs the real Modula alive, just as it needs the King alive. And it's not a perfect copy of Modula's personality. Given how he winks at Illana during "Shadows of the Past," it's pretty evident that Modula had a pretty good relationship with Illana as she grew up, like a kind uncle caring for his only niece. If this was actually Modula, then why would he not refer to Illana by name when asking the King of her whereabouts?
      It makes me wish that, as the series went on, we got to see "Modula" eventually reach a point where he decides that "if you want something done, do it yourself," and launches a full Mutraddi invasion of the Earth through the Rift Gate, or conversely, we see Lance, Illana, Octus, Solomon and G3 launch a massive counter invasion of Galaluna through their own Rift Gate, where we get to see the Sym-Bionic Titan go up against the Tyrant of Galaluna.

  • @Cephalopod51
    @Cephalopod51 ปีที่แล้ว +68

    General Modula is such an awesome and unique rendition of the super robot / sentai anime villain. Instead of someone who has always been evil, the general is a a man who was once good and honorable who turned bad due to some major disaster. His origin reminds me somewhat of the General from The Gunmen Chronicles. It's still a mystery as to whether Modula is mind-controlled by an alien parasite or if he is acting of his own free will. What is certain is that Modula is not the same man as he was before he was left for dead, we never see his eyes underneath that hat, and his hat is alive. If he chose to be bad, he might've modified his body with biological alien enhancements given to him by the Mutraddi, including the hat. He certainly managed to get some of his Galalunan officers to turn traitor somehow, and they don't seem to be possessed by alien parasites.
    Whatever his origin, it's cool to see a Voltron-like villain whose motivations and origins are other than being a villain who has always been evil. I also like that he looks like a 19th century Russian officer, and fights like a superhuman martial arts master. And the monsters he sends are very creative variations of the monsters you'd see in super robot anime or sentai dramas.
    If Sym-Bionic Titan gets revived, I'm curious as to what Modula's full story would be. If Modula ever gets defeated, maybe other villains would emerge to take his place. It'd be nice to give the Titan heroes a variety of alien warlords to face if the show progresses after Modula is no more.

    In a very real sense General Modula is the same kind of character as General Iroh from Avatar the last Airbender. Both military generals of great might and renown, loyal to their government, and caring for their fellow man. The difference is that when they are tested by a significant loss at war, Iroh the death of his cherished son during the first siege of Ba Sing Se, and Modula his being marooned on a hostile and foreign planet, Iroh turns to selfless servitude of the greater good and Modula turns to selfish service of his own power and revenge. Both are men possessed of a balanced masculinity and awareness of their own strengths and limitations.

    By the fact that during a mission, both soldiers seemingly perished in an explosion, to the point of that their corpses disappeared. But will be revealed that both somehow survived, and were caught by the Mutraddi and Separatists, whom made Modula and Echo in their weapons, making them turned on their former allies of Galaluna and the Republic.

    You wanna know what makes this guy intimidating? He's quite, like some villains (espically 80s villains like Cobra Commander or Shredder) he doesn't angrily blame his minions for failing and he does except failure but instead always find ways to change his next plan.
    TL;DR = Be aware of the quiet one, they are the ones who actually think. The smarter you get the less you speak.
