It made him feel like he genuinely believed that he was fighting for a good cause no matter the means.

I knew Thanos was perfect when 1. He DOES NOT lie, as bad his plan is, he knows it’s evil, but undertakes the task in a “noble” way in his own eyes. He is honest about it to himself and others. 2. He has NO CONTEMPT for the “avengers” specifically. He even lets some of them live, and some he even shows respect towards. He has no personal quarrel with them, they are simply an obstacle. As soon as he sees his task before him as greater than himself, he transcends the avengers and their little lives and motives. He is bigger than they are, more purpose-driven. His mission even transcends his OWN life.

His plan doesn't make sense to anyone with their sanity still intact, but it does to him. At least, that's the only explanation I could find for his plan making no sense if you think about it for more than a minute.

The surprised look on Thanos's face after he snaps his fingers make me wonder if he included himself as a possibility in the random killing and he happened to survive. Or maybe he was just shocked that he finally managed to accomplish his goal. Either way it's an interesting scene.

@felixfeliciano7011

5 жыл бұрын

The surprise he had after the snap and the vision of a young Gamora within the Soul Stone world, seem to suggest that not only was he a potential target, but that he was chosen and something about the gauntlet saved him. In the comics, when Thanos loses the gauntlet, Nebula picks it up and starts using it, despite being a near mindless zombie at the time. She reverses everything that had happened - including the snap - and proceeds to be assaulted by the remaining heroes and the combined might of the Celestials. However, Thanos notes that while she may have the gauntlet, she lacks the will to use it to its full potential, and that she is reacting mostly out of instinct. Because some of the gems are even sentient, he suggests that the infinity gauntlet itself was protecting her from attacks that would have otherwise easily defeated her. In the comic line "Illuminati" the group of the same name assemble the infinity gauntlet. Reed Richards is wearing the gauntlet at its completion, and everyone is holding their breath for what he might do, not having thought of the consequences of fully assembling the gauntlet in such a situation. For a moment, there is just strained confusion on Reed Richard's face before he finally says that he can't do it. He cannot will the gauntlet and the infinity gems to simply cease to be. The assembled gauntlet simply wont let it happen. The stones in the MCU are definitely less powerful than the gems in the comics, and the gauntlet itself seemed nearly destroyed by the act of unleashing its full wish-fulfilling power. Even so, if he really wanted to be preserved, he simply could have made it so. However, after having just watched a video about good villains needing good motivations, the motivation to preserve himself is quite lacking. Does he have a massive ego? Yes, but it was definitely taken down a notch after murdering the one person he loved the most in the universe. Does he think he is a god? Possibly but I doubt it. A god doesn't need an all powerful tool to do what he wants, and that smile at the beginning of the film to Loki's taunt wasn't one of "I will be a god, you can count on it" but more of a "you really have no idea what I really want, do you" sort of look. He doesn't clarify or argue, but then again, he rarely does for anyone he is outright going to kill. He doesn't argue with Loki, he just crushes his neck. He doesn't try to convince Gamora that he truly loves her, he simply bites back the pain and does the sacrifice. Interestingly, he even gives a soft and even reassuring speech to Tony Stark, who somehow received a non-lethal stab through the gut. Similarly for Wanda Maximoff when he consoles her for her sacrifice of Vision and yet despite clearly being the biggest threat of the entire team, he only swats her away AFTER she attacks him first. I would argue, to get back to the main point, that Thanos would have been very unlikely to have spared himself from the snap, mainly because the character we are shown throughout the movie isn't the type to do that. Indeed, he is more likely to do the reverse, seeing that preventing his own demise would fly in the face of his goal (that it is random, impartial, merciful, which to someone who has suffered as much, he would consider it mercy to be wiped away). The belief that he is utterly right in his goal, that level of ego, would prevent him from excluding himself. However, the icing on the cake is such, that as high as his ego is, it is not so high, that he doesn't have remorse or doubt, both shown brilliantly after the snap, when he shows genuine surprise at surviving, and genuine remorse at all of the sacrifices he had to make in order to get to that point.

That doesn't make any sense. Increasing the resources *INCREASES* the standards of living, not the other way around. More resources equals less time and effort needed to obtain said resources, thus more time spent on the quality of life. Also, according to Endgame, the universe originally had 10 trillion souls before the snap. Our solar system can support over 10 *QUADRILLION* people and their standards of living would be *LEAGUES* better than the richest people on Earth. Assuming that a habitable Earth-like planet exists around every star in the galaxy and you spread those 10 quadrillion people across those worlds, they would populate the entire galaxy several times over. There's no shortage of resources anytime soon. Or he could just change reality so that resources work infinitely or make everyone immortal, but no character brings that up in the movie because the story would fall apart instantaneously. Thanos has all this power but he ends up underutilizing said powers in the worst way possible.

Beautifully said. I already thought Thanos was the best villain, but my friend didn't agree. This video was enjoyable to watch because you explained perfectly why I love this character. You also mentioned something that I hadn't realized before: the peace at the end of the movie. The ending is very chilling, but you're right. There is a peacefulness to it because we know our protagonist won.

I feel like Zemo was a better villain than Thanos. His character was easier to relate to, he used no super powers to manipulate everyone, and basically succeeded in breaking apart the Avengers. The events of Age of Ultron killed his family which gives the viewer a total understanding of why he would want to do what he does. I love Infinity War, but the moment Tony Stark sees his parents killed by Bucky in Civil War makes it the best Marvel film so far.

I love how honest he is. You don't doubt for a second that he truly believes that what he's doing is noble. Also, he doesn't immediately kill the heroes. He could have if he really wanted to but that wasn't his goal. He probably understood that the Avengers were good people doing what they thought was right, so he only tried to kill them if they kept on trying to stop him because his goal was the most important thing to him. I don't think we'll ever get a villain as good as Thanos again.

Endgame was the culmination so they had a lot more to tackle in order to finally wrap the entire 11 years up which is probably why it felt so conveluded compared to IW.

What bugs me is the misapprehension that killing half a population will stop the population problem. It simply delays it ...for a SHORT while. If he tinkered with the fertility rate so growth is 0% he would have achieved his goal. And those who say “just double the resources” have the same misunderstanding of population ecology... just saying.

The top 5 best written movie antagonists (in my opinion) based on character complexity: 5. Darth Vader 4. Hannibal Lecter 3. Thanos 2. Anton Chigurh 1. The Joker (Heath Ledger) An argument could be made for swapping Thanos and Chigurh. Thanos is certainly more complex than Chigurh; Chigurh is simply an unrelenting force whose presence is omnipresent. Chigurh is written in such a way that he accomplishes this with next to nothing, while Thanos, who has everything, never quite reaches omnipresence. For this reason, I gave a slight preference to Chigurh. It could go either way tho.

Thanos in the MCU doesnt make any sense to me at all. He basically wants to get rid of half the people alive, so that there will be more resources available to the people that are left, right? And he eventually gets the infinity stones to do it, because if you have all the stones you can basically do anything. So why not just use the stones to double the resources... or even triple them ect.. instead of killing half the universe? If you kill half the universes population, they will just breed themselves back up to the original number anyway given enough time, especially with the surplus resources. All hes done is put a temporary baindaid on the problem, at the cost of trillions of lives and the sorrow that comes with it. In the comics he wants to kill half the universe because he wants to create a massive amount of death to impress Death herself, the entity he is in love with, and because hes the mad Titan. Im not going to say which motivation is better, but the MCU version doesnt really make sense.

Thanos, was not a "Villain". He was the "Antagonist". Would a "Villain" have shown mercy in so many instances that it became laughable?

And once he accomplishes his goals he rests and finds peace, nothing more. He doesn't see himself as evil, he doesn't want to destroy life.

A little late to the discussion, but another thing that makes Thanos stand out to me is that his sacrificial conviction is exactly what the heroes lack. He is willing to, and does, make sacrifices for his goals, while the heroes repeatedly pull their punches at the most critical moment, leading to their defeat. Although he's deeply flawed and definitely worthy of hate, he has an attribute that the heroes don't that could be seen as noble, depending on where you're standing. And what really drives it home is that the conclusion of the film doesn't give us any reassurances. Did the heroes earn their failure? Is their unwillingness to make sacrifices a noble ideal, or selfishly naive? Is it even that simple?

+AM Journal Disagree , the heroic archetype is strongly based on *literal , tangible* SELF-sacrifice , heroism much like love has its roots on putting the others before one-self but in a much broader way , Thanos is willing to sacrifice others for his goals , but his version of sacrifice is a more "cultural" version if you will , since he is sacrificing individuals that are very important to him , and in most human societies , that does count as part of one's own individualism. Thanos wouldn't sacrifice himself for the cause because ultimately , he values himself as much as his mission , or perhaps higher , he even states that he is the only one capable and willing. The nobility is in him sticking to the plan with or without hesitation , and not being sadistic , the nobility doesn't actually come from being willing to sacrifice others for his own cause. If anything the classic nobility that we've been completly de-sensitized from of the heros is much stronger and purer , which is why they're heros and Thanos is the villain.

@@juanme555 Yeah, definitely, you make a good point! I still think that the main downfall that the heroes fall prey to is their refusal to let their friends make voluntary sacrifices that may have been their only way of beating Thanos (though that's debatable, I suppose). It's a weird thing to think about, because, arguably, refusing to let one's friends die could be noble, but then, it could be selfish, if it costs the lives of others (which it does). Is it better to save the people you care about, or let them make the choice to give their life for the good of others? Which is more noble? We'll have to see how it shakes out in Endgame. It's just a shocking thing to see presented in a movie, none of the heroes being able to do what's necessary to beat the villain even when they have the chance and losing outright because of it. (Thor's failure to kill Thanos in time for instance, and I think there are several other similar moments.)

It perfectly sets up and adds a lot more weight to Gamora's sacrifice scene.

The heroes had _numerous_ opportunities to stop him--they could have killed Gamora, killed Vision, let Thor die, or even move past the grief of Gamora's death--but every single one of these actions would have required sacrifice, and that's something the "good guys" would never allow At the end of the day, Thanos was willing to sacrifice those he loved (or, the one he loved) to save the day. The heroes were not. Guess who won?

I'll add that Thanos would not want to double the resources because it defeats the purpose. He believes the universe is imbalanced because its inhabitants have a natural culture of excess that makes them mismanage their available resources. Doubling them would make this trend even worse and would lead to even further imbalance down the line. Therefore the only practical solution is the extreme one of wiping out half of life. As far as Thanos is concerned, that is the only approach that has actually worked, and therefore that is his destiny to carry it out on a universal scale.

Word! I agree to a certain extent, but I think that just comes down to the villain having relatable motives. Many villains are intentionally over the top, so it makes it difficult for the viewer to imagine their actions applied to their own life. If the villain is relatable, then no matter what the actions are, they can be somewhat sympathetic and therefore effective. Hope you liked the video, my dude!

Hey there's a monument in the middle of America that states that one of the main goals of humanity is to seek balance with nature and reduce the population of the world to 500m.... seems like Thanos is rather soft on population control compared to that.

SAME, Tho Vader is comparable

musician here: I think the greatest moment in the film is the last note in the score: the music resolves to a major chord (happy), when most of the whole score up until then was in minor (more sad). this pairs extremely well with that slight smirk he gives: even if he went through self-torment to get what he wanted, making everyone miserable in the process (predominantly minor), he has gotten what he wants; the plot has resolved, as does the music.

*This,does put a smile on my face*

I actually really liked Ronan and thought he’d be a very memorable villain if he had gotten a little more on screen development. He mentions how the Xandarians had waged war against his people and had slaughtered several generations of his family. I would’ve liked to see his upbringing, growing up surrounded by constant war, shaping him into the being of pure hatred we see on screen.

Instead of screaming for vengeance, Thanos's last moment was just looking at Tony with a face full of sorrow like he think he had failed the universe. The MCU Thanos IS the best version of Thanos since the comic books are often portrayed him as an arrogant tyrant.

He wiped out half the universe because of a Malthusian proposition which could be overcome with a little creativity and something as strong as the infinity stones (Instead of wiping out half the universe, why not just make some more planets?). Killing half the universe seems like taking the easy way out. Oh yeah, and after wiping out half the universe, he goes and lives on a planet by himself. Guess Thanos doesn't practice what he preaches.

Me too. Haha..wish is he gets resurrected or something.

The smile at the end was very well done, it wasn't smug like most villains but almost like an old man finally retiring after decades of working hard to achieve his end goal. very good video i'm glad someone put into words how well this performance was.

Both of his deaths in Endgame made me genuinely bad for him. 1st one: He has assumed at this point the universe is happy, grateful for what he’s done. He lives as a humble man farming and knows he will be blinded with power so he doesn’t become a tyrannical god. He is then killed cold blood for doing nothing but believe what he did right. He sacrificed everything, his army in Wakanda, his daughter, his main crew.It’s like working your entire life for something, something heroic, something that will save the planet. Soon to realise the people you saved aren’t grateful and kill you in cold blood. 2nd one: He has at this point knows his destiny. He knows what he’s going to do is right and nothing to stop him. He then watches his entire army vanish before him. Everything he worked for, everyone he worked with, vanish in his eyes. At this point, he’s done nothing wrong except for the fact of destroying (saving) planets. Planet by planet, to then realise what you will do will be worth nothing, the people you save won’t be grateful. He seeks to become a god over a new universe and is again killed for doing what he thinks is right.
