Unknown (00:00):
So I said, I really identify with villains. I'm not
(00:06):
really a superhero individual,right? Like, I identify more
with Magneto than I do ProfessorX, for sure, hands down far and
away. The reason that I identifywith villains because they tend
to be more realist, very, veryintelligent human beings, but
(00:30):
have been blessed with or cursedwith great power, most times
more than what they want it. Andthey've been thrusted into this
space, and asked to to be niceto play nice to, to use what has
been bestowed upon them, tobetter everyone around them to
(00:54):
the detriment of themselves. Andmost villains say raw deal, not
with it. There's a great numberof villains actually, that I
wouldn't count as villains atall that have been placed in
this box of like, well, if youdon't do it the heroes way, then
(01:21):
you're a villain villain.
Nothing could be more true thanthat when you're talking about
Magneto and Professor X Magneto,not a villain. It's not. He is
just seen over and over again,how humans treat mutants and has
decided why do we need to keepinteracting with them? Every
(01:45):
time we do it, they find out ourabout us and want to kill us or
want to capture us. And likestudy us want to use us to
create weapons to makethemselves more powerful. This
doesn't seem like a relationshipthat I should be in Magneto is a
(02:08):
realist. Neato is somebody thatI can identify with. That like
every time we get into closerelationship, you do some foul
stuff. And then you expect me tobe cool with it. turn a blind
(02:31):
eye from it and keep moving.
Right like and I'm not supposedto adjust. Why am I the villain
because I don't want to bebothered anymore. Why am I the
villain because I want toprotect myself. Far be it from
me to want to live. And I'msupposed to like sacrifice
(02:56):
myself so that you feelcomfortable.
That's all Magneto saying. And alot of real ways. That's what
most villains are saying.
I saw the new Batman movie. I'mnot going to spoil it for you. I
don't have enough time toactually spoil it for you. It
(03:19):
was a three hour movie. Mypodcasts are no longer than 10
minutes. Don't got enough timeto spoil it for you. We're
already three and a half minutesinto this episode. All I'm gonna
say is maybe just maybe theriddler’s right and more often
(03:42):
than not Batman's villains areBatman is like this tortured
soul who is somehow also aneternal optimist who thinks that
everything can be better. TheJoker's The Riddler is correct.
(04:08):
In this, I believe. When you seethe movie, you will know what
I'm talking about. What I didlike about the movie is that the
Riddler was in control theentire time. And he says
something at the end of themovie that blew me away. No, I'm
(04:30):
not going to tell you what itis. Maybe I'll tell you what it
is because by the time Iactually put this out, I hope
you've seen it. He said that Icouldn't have done any of the
damage that I did without yourhelp. In talking to Batman.
(04:55):
Batman thinking that he'ssolving a crime is actually
Helping to commit the crimes.
Because without Batman, Riddlerdoesn't have the strength to
pull these things off. WithoutBatman putting the things
together and involving himself,because he has to save the day,
(05:16):
there will be no story. IfBatman went on vacation, there
would have been no movie. I satin a movie theater for three
hours to come to the realizationthat Batman needs a vacation and
a therapist. And if he had bothof those things, there wouldn't
(05:36):
have been a movie. Go figure.
Some of y'all need to understandthat. That some of the stuff
that's going off in your life,if you would take a nap and get
a snack, there might not be amovie might not be a scene to
(06:00):
create because you're not there.
Maybe you just need a vacation.
Also, maybe the villains areright. And we should listen.
It's a weird episode. Take itfor what you will. It's kind of
like the chicken fingersepisode. Whether you like it or
(06:20):
not. It happened. This has beenso I said and I just did
