    A lot of people have been asking for Matt to show me a movie that I had never seen before. Matt decided to show me the movie "Goon" over on his channel if you want to check that out. Thanks again for all the support everyone!

    • @Vanexelfan3137
      @Vanexelfan3137 4 роки тому +48

      Knock /Da Deathstroke
      As far as detective skills, you’re right. They did not emphasize that side of him or really address it at all. But the fact is that there are multiple sides of Batman. They chose to tell a story which shone light on his soul. His skill set was something he acquired, as all of us do in our lives. It does not make him essentially who he is. It just makes it what he does, what he is able to do. Not what defines him. In the comic books/graphic novels/cartoons, he learned how to be an escape artist. That does not mean that’s who he is down deep. It’s just what he does. In the films, it’s a character study of a man and what he does when the faults of society come knocking on his door at a young age and how he adapts, which is essentially the story of Bruce Wayne in a nutshell.
      As far as fighting, the choreography in the second film was a bit clunky but the first film was cool and the editing was choice. Plus, the Keysi fighting method is hard to learn, harder to master but in the end extremely effective to wield.
      As a side note, here’s hoping you and those you care about stay safe and healthy in these crazy times.

      Knock /Da Deathstroke Plus, in the Dark Knight Batman did showcase that his forensic skills are better than Gotham PD’s. So they acknowledged he does that that skill set, they just didn’t emphasize it.

      B C 08 Yeah Da Deathstroke doesn’t know what he’s talking about. DK showed off his detective/forensic skills when tracking down Joker from the bullet/fragments. Granted they didn’t delve deep into that world as much as the Arkham series games or Batman TAS but they still made it a part of his story. Hopefully Matt Reeves’ Batman explores it more in depth

Endgame didn't live up to the hype for me...I thought the time travel stuff wasn't handled that well(with the exception of Tony meeting his father and Thor with his mother). I didn't really like what they did with Hulk or Thor. The scene where Thanos attacked the Avengers HQ and everyone miraculously survives without a scratch was lame and far-fetched.

    Since you asked, I interpret Rachel's condescending phrase to Bruce, "Deep down you may still be that same great kid you used to be. But it's not who you are underneath, it's what you do that defines you."
    I take it to mean your actions matter more than your intentions. You can tell yourself who you think you are or tell others who you are and what you stand for, but those are just words. You can tell more about a person by their actions, believe what a person demonstrates themselves to be, regardless of who they claim they are.

    Nobody has gotten to the deeper meaning that the whole trilogy was getting at I think. It's about why we love superheroes. It is about becoming a symbol/inspiration for society for good and justice. Here are some backup quotes:
    Henri Ducard : No, no, no. A vigilante is just a man lost in the scramble for his own gratification. He can be destroyed, or locked up. But if you make yourself more than just a man, if you devote yourself to an ideal, and if they can't stop you, then you become something else entirely.
    Bruce Wayne : Which is?
    Henri Ducard : Legend, Mr. Wayne.
    Later, when talking to Alfried...
    Batman/Bruce Wayne: People need dramatic examples to shake them out of apathy and I can't do that as Bruce Wayne, as a man I'm flesh and blood I can be ignored I can be destroyed but as a symbol, as a symbol I can be incorruptible, I can be everlasting.
    As far as people know, batman sacrificed his life to save Gotham. All those kids in the bus will have that memory forever seared into their brain.
    Also, nobody ever knew who he was and that is the way batman wanted it. When commissioner Gordon asks for his name, Batman says "A hero can be anyone, even a man doing something as simple and reassuring as putting a coat on a young boy's shoulders to let him know that the world hadn't ended."
    If that wasn't enough, Batman becomes a literal symbol in the form of a statue at the end of the series.

    “It isn’t who you are underneath, it’s what you do that defines you.”
    To me, the point of this is that we all have this idea of who we are, and have these ideals or notions in our head that we feel drives us and defines us... but that may not be accurate to what your actual actions are, and how other people see you. You may not actually practice what you preach, but you delude yourself into thinking you’re a good person because you think about yourself a certain way. Perhaps you hide who you really are or want to be because you’re afraid to actually act upon your convictions. You might have a good heart and good intentions, but if it doesn’t actually manifest in your actions, it doesn’t matter.
    It reminds me of a Louis CK bit where he felt like a good person just because he thought about giving his airplane seat to a veteran. He didn’t do it, but he felt good because he thought of it. lol

    What I love about the Dark Knight trilogy is that each main villain represented something about Bruce. They were sort of his own inner demons manifested in the real world and he had to conquer each of them in a unique way. None of this bad guys keep getting more powerful and hard to retain interest nonsense. Scare Crow represented Bruce's fear and really Gotham as a whole. Joker represented his inner struggle between order and chaos. Bane represented the path Bruce nearly took all the back in the first movie. He was sort of what Bruce would have become should he have become a member of the league of shadows. Just an abandonment of the human spirit, in justice and in the system. That he was willing to lie to protect the system then he had to face he consequence of that lie. Great trilogy, It's up there with the Matrix for me and the Dark Knight it rightly regarded as a top 5 movie of all time.

    What I think I love the most from the Dark Knight is the line the joker leaves about a truck full of soldiers getting blown up. The theory out there being that the Joker used to be a soldier possibly even CIA which would explain why they have no background information on him, but that he is suffering from survivors guilt. All of those random stories he tells about how he got those scars could have been things that different members of his squad dealt with but slightly warped. I'm glad they never fully out right explain his back story but leaving some subtle clues as to why he is the way he is really brought the Joker from a clown in a comic book to this insane mass murderer that you could believe is possible to exist in our own world.
