@@tailgunner2 nah man it wasn’t a nuclear warhead, it was an avengers line, all the characters got hurt on their left…. Bucky, Gollum, lightning lad… all left side When you know you know
Did you watch Oppenheimer's interview before this? They did an awesome job with the sound effects. There's a lot of attention to detail with this one. You can see the mushroom cloud in Oppenheimer's eyes when he said "I got that fissile material." The "split U like 2 and 3 from 5" is a major bar! U235 was the Uranium isotope used to cause the chain reaction in the atomic bomb. Split you like 2+3=5 is obvious. In the comics Thanos was obsessed with the personification of death (Lady Death). She didn't want any of that. He did the snap to win her favor. She "swiped left" on him & wanted Deadpool. Lol Nearly every line was a reference. Glad you finally watched it!
The interesting thing between these two is that Oppenheimer is famous for quoting the Hindu scripture with the line “Now I am become Death, the Destroyer of worlds.” Oppenheimer is a real guy who created a devastating weapon meant to cause death, and viewed himself with regret ad a metaphorical destroyer of worlds. Meanwhile, Thanos is a fictional character who was legitimately in love with Death, and used a devastating weapon to become a literal destroyer of worlds. So, a fake guy who really did it in his fake world, and a real guy who was afraid he’d metaphorically done it in the real world. These two were meant to be enemies, so they were perfect to oppose one another in this rap battle.
Hell, that split second shot after that “Terran who never learned to love his bomb.” Line. You can see the dispare in his expression and that little pipe shake.
Not gonna lie the "the only thing you're good at wrecking is a home, you slept with your friends wife, right there in your friends bed, got another married girl pregnant... you should have gone for the head" might be the coldest line of them all. BUT Oppenheimer's first verse might be my favorite verse from ERB ever.
JAJ: Oppenheimer was the leader of the scientists who developed the A- Bomb . His look isn't tired; it's guilt over the A-bomb's destructive force. J.Robert Oppenhiemer by a nuke-slide!
I think he would eventually lose his status when he refused to help develop an H (Hydrogen) Bomb. If you get a chance look at what that thing did. It made the A Bomb look like a cheap firecracker.
I'm a fan of Thanos from way back when he and Gamora used to run around with Adam Warlock and Pip the troll. So I love the comic book references. I still give it to Oppenheimer. Savage bars + great delivery wins every time.
I think the bigger of a comic book fan you are, the worse thanos' loss becomes. Those were some DEEP cuts he was taking and they only got worse for those of us who got the references.
@@kdailey4315 I thought Eastwood/Lee was fairly close until that last line that hit like a dummy round fragment to the chest...was that too far? I was actually a huge fan of Brandon and The Crow, the studio really f'ed up by not calling the prop master in that day saying he wasn't needed, probably to save a few bucks or possibly a last minute change by the director to use the gun in a scene. The fragment that struck Brandon would most likely have been noticed missing from the dummy rounds that made the gun look loaded on camera when they were swapped with blanks to fire it. The actor who pulled the trigger stated before he died in 2016 that he had never gotten over the incident...what a tragedy...
They made several references to Thanos from the comics, not the MCU. Being born of Eternals, how Death swiped left on him, being beaten by Squirrel Girl. That's all in the comics.
"Here too split U like 2 and 3 from 5!" That might be my favorite line ever :) "U235" is Uranium-235, the fissile (fuel) for the first atomic weapon (they used plutonium in the later ones) 😁🤓🤓🤣😂🤣😂😂
Oppenheimer's most famous words were 'I am become death' upon seeing the first atomic test at Los Alamos. Here, the best line, upon hearing Thanos' bars was 'I am become deaf'.
It's like they say, the more you learn about this the more you realize how devastating Oppenheimer was. And then you learn that "Tinky Winky" was the purple Teletubby.
Maybe I'm reading too deep, but wasn't the controversy over Tinky-Winky around the idea that he was gay? (I believe he carried a purse) It definitely puts the Ant-man line in a different context...
@@42Mrgreenman That's the first I've heard that angle, and I think it does read too much into it. I've never heard that the Teletubbies are "gay", they're children. It's just that they wear bizarre costumes, look goofy and give off creepy vibes.
Unfortunately, a Senator back in the day tried to get TeleTubbies canceled from TV for that very reason. Around the late 90's or so. Supposedly, the purse carrying Tubby was thought of by Conservatives as Gay. Just more hateful B.S. that folks don't talk about anymore...
This is my all-time favorite ERB. It's not even close. There is no close second. Peter's performance as Oppenheimer was absolutely flawless. And my personal favorite line: I cause chain reactions when I'm lyrical, because I've got that fissile material.
Even though Thanos is one of my least favorite performances, this is my favorite ERB.. all because of Oppenheimer. Everything about his set is epic. The beat, the flow, the bombs, the visuals, the brilliant performance. This is power on another level.
This is my favorite of their works. I wasn't sure how they were going to handle Oppenheimer because he's such a quiet and reserved person when he speaks in the recordings we have of him. The famous recordings of Oppenheimer are all after the creation of the atomic bomb when he was haunted by the sheer scale of death he had enabled. They really blew me away with it, though, starting from that haunted man and giving such a strong twist on his famous "I am become death" reference. Thanos started strong, but this quickly became one sided. Not as badly as Shakespear vs Dr. Seuss or Miley Cirus vs Joan of Ark, thankfully, but there was no coming back for Thanos. I would have liked to have seen the Thanos Copter be used against him rather than such a weak line from himself, but they really had to include it somehow.
Oppenheimer was amazing but it also made me a little sad, because they nailed that traumatized, guilt-ridden look. He hated the nuclear bomb he'd helped create, and that phrase - "Now I am become death, destroyer of worlds", when he says it in that interview, wow. That sounds like a destroyed man.
Man don't miss out on more erb on nice Peter's page. He's the one who played Oppenheimer. I think before they had the eeb channel the battle raps were being stored there 👍👍
Split you like 2 and 3 from 5 is an absolutely insane line. Oppenheimer is the father of the atom bomb. The first bombs they created were fission bombs, which split atoms, releasing an extreme amount of energy. The type of atoms they split were Uranium 235. When he says he'll split you like 2 and 3 from 5, he is referencing splitting the atom, the isotope used (235), and even noting that 2 and 3 add up to 5. So the math of splitting 5 into 2 and 3 works out. This is one of the most clever lines ever.
It's the "tinky-winky" line which killed me the first time I saw this. Straight up called homeboy a teletubby - well, that's it, it's over, turn off the cameras, pack everything up, go home folks - it's over.
You mentioned the look in NicePeter's eyes at the beginning of the Oppenheimer verse, there's a reason for that. If you look at what pictures exist of him in the early 30s, you'll see a man with life behind his eyes. Then if you look at him in any pictures after the end of the war, he's got that 1000 yard stare, and he keeps it from 45 till his death in 67. Man spent 22 years haunted by the fact that he was directly responsible for the slaughter of 226k people, most of whom were civilians, in (talking instantly in Hiroshima and Nagasaki) literal seconds. I'd probably have some severe PTSD after that.
Agreed with everyone here ( and this coming from an old mom who dislikes rap, except for Hamilton and ERB)... Oppy was overwhelming and the clear winner, even a noob like me could see it. What gets me is that Thanos is supposed to be a nightmare made real, but it's Oppenheimer's dead eyed look that is honestly scary. Standing ovation ERB. Loved your reaction, Jamal! Please do Tolkien vs Martin, another great battle.
Both the darkest and my favorite ERB. When I first saw it, had the rough movie version knowledge of Thanos - not much on Oppenheimer. Watching just the short "I am become death..." interview clip ahead of time as recommended in the comments, and then watching this; sells the diligence and dedication that was brought to this ERB. Ace-high straight flush! The Joker Vs. Pennywise got 5 aces, but I'm pretty sure that's only because one of them cheats at cards...
Just wanted to pop in and comment on how cool it is that you built up your reactions audience BEFORE dipping into the pool of ERB, which is where I've seen most reactors start as there's such a huge built in audience who swarm for new reactions to the ERBs.
“Pencil pushing Terran who never learned to love his bomb” is a reference to the movie “Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb”
Fun fact: when they first went to detonate the first atomic bomb, they were afraid that the detonation might ignite earth's atmosphere and incinerate all life from earth, but they still did it anyway, for science.
the way Oppi is played is perfect for the man he was/became... Oppi became Planetary-Level out of necessity and the weight of that creation never left his shoulders.
J did them late last week. He's falling down the ERB rabbit hole _hard_ and says he's looking to do all of 'em! ua-cam.com/video/aFDKfDn66gY/v-deo.html
You have to know about the comics and Marvel lore to get Oppenheimer's burns. Birth from an Eternal, being beat my Squirrel Girl, Ant-Man going into Thanos' arse and expanding, just so many digs. Haha
Thanos had a few jabs in there but Oppenheimer was dropping bars like atom bombs. Plus the efforts they put into perfecting the haunted look, mimicking the sound of the interview recording, mushroom cloud in the eyes. Oppenheimer is the winner hands down
Thanos was beaten down so badly even the reality stone couldnt reverse that loss. His first verse was actually pretty darn good. Against anyone else it might have even been a winner, but holy crow was oppenheimer dishing out roundhouse kicks and haymakers with every line, and doing so with epic wordplay on top of it all. Then thanos came back in round 2 with a verse that was half good half lame. Seriously? bringing up the thanos coptor and being a fortnite character? really?
Thanos came out swinging, but Oppenheimer was dropping bombs (nuclear ones!). So many great bars (I liked the play on words "I am become death" "I am become deaf"
Hey, Jamal! You should have let the credits roll for literally one second more! There's an Easter Egg that totally might change your opinion on who won!
Oppenheimer easily nuked the Mad Titan in this battle; especially in how NicePeter based his performance on film footage of the physicist reading that line of the Hindu holy book the Bhagavad Gita "Now I am become Death, Destroyer of Worlds". I suggest you watch "Robert Oppenheimer Reflects On The Trinity Atom Bomb Test" some time on UA-cam, it's really haunting; he looks like he's just dead inside knowing what he has created.
Hated Thano's beat, and his bars are kinda weak. Opp went for the throat time after time. It does help if you know more of Oppenheimer's story but still... the iron man and butt chin had already nailed Thanos to the floor. Everything else Opp said was just there to rip parts off a dead body. And seriously,that voice for Thanos might be the worst ERB ever did.... and Opp, they nailed. Story is, Oppenheimer saw the test of the first atomic bomb and quotes the Hindu God Shiva (the Destroyer) "I have become Death. The destroyer of worlds." It gets argued if he said that, but his hatred and guilt over the atomic bomb are legendary...
He recalled it in an interview, I don't think he actually said it during the test, IIRC he said, "I was reminded of the passage from the Bhagavad Gita..." If you watch HISHE than you'll know both Thor and Thanos were incorrect...he should have gone for the arm...
Oppenheimer destroyed Thanos in this one. Thanos didn't do himself any favors by saying he had the "Thanos copter" (which was a real thing in the comics, but he's like a demigod - he doesn't need a *helicopter*.)
Thanos calling himself Fortnite's Dopest Dancer is the first time I've witnessed a suicide in these battles.
That was his best line.
Well, there are two suicides in Romeo and Juliet vs Bonnie and Clyde
That was uncalled for Uncanny, lmao
Hahahaha!! Brilliant
Oppy just demolished him so hard Thanos hit himself on confusion. Like the thanos copter bar was pushing it buddy.
The more you know, the more complete is Oppenheimer's victory.
"I'll split U like 2 and 3 from 5" might be the best triple in ERB history.

Duuuuuude, there is no doubt. Oppenheimer kicked it in the teeth. I loved his lines. So good. SO GOOD.
Oppenheimer lost his soul in the creation of the atomic bomb...so he took Thanos' in return.
This was the second Robert to take out Thanos with a snap.
Shit, I hadn't thought of that one, wonder if it was intentional...
For me Oppenheimer took it all. He had the better flows, the better burns, the better zingers, the better bars.
Absolutely, he wrecked this.
I do love the Oppenhymen line, though
Not gonna lie the "the only thing you're good at wrecking is a home, you slept with your friends wife, right there in your friends bed, got another married girl pregnant... you should have gone for the head" might be the coldest line of them all.

Known officially as "The Manhattan Project."
Hence Thanos' "Dr. Manhattan" line.
I think he would eventually lose his status when he refused to help develop an H (Hydrogen) Bomb. If you get a chance look at what that thing did. It made the A Bomb look like a cheap firecracker.
I also believe the dr Manhattan quote has to do with dr Manhattan from watchmen.
@@charmanderstarter420 Yes.
The Manhattan Project was also where he got his monicker.
A small quibble - he does look tired...but it's because of the guilt.

Story is, Oppenheimer saw the test of the first atomic bomb and quotes the Hindu God Shiva (the Destroyer) "I have become Death. The destroyer of worlds."
It gets argued if he said that, but his hatred and guilt over the atomic bomb are legendary...
He recalled it in an interview, I don't think he actually said it during the test, IIRC he said, "I was reminded of the passage from the Bhagavad Gita..."
