@@najarintheoverowrldermuge6568 yeah but he basically said he wanted to create an army of monsters to do who knows what and then he used an army of goons to attack a kid
Seriously, I love the art and animation in this show so much. It's probably the best looking show Disney has ever put out imo. This was animated by the same group that animated Rise of the TMNT (the creators actually sought them out specifically because of their work on Rise!) and you can definitely see the resemblance at points.
Ironically he made his own good guy it’s usually the opposite lol 😂 dude goes bad his best friend stops being his friend and leaves she runs into a guy falls in love with him has a kid the kid has a kid who becomes a superhero who tries to stop him,the villain, from carrying out his evil plan lol
Like my mama always said "Can't ignore a man with an army of interdimensional monsters." 😂😂😂😂😂bro that's gotta be one of the best lines of any show ever
Maris is the perfect marvel cartoon villain an outstanding scientist who sacrificed god knows how much of his life on a single project and then his friend and the people who helped and funded it all out of no where took it all away ended his hopes and dreams in one moment but instead of letting it go he feels broken betrayed forgotten if he can't be remembered by the world then he's gonna own the world
This plot was an interesting metaphor for how so many non-white and female scientists wrre treated. Their work was stolen or just outright deemed irrelevant
You have a point there about people of colour who have their work stolen. But I think it goes deeper than that. I did some research and it turns out there are other scientists who had their work stolen, even white and Asian people, men and women. I think it goes further than that, when some scientists do not make the invention first or cannot come up with any new ideas they end up stealing someone else's and taking the credit all to satisfy their ego because they were a part of the science community longer than anyone.
Morlak reminds me of Vlad Master from Danny Phantom. No not comparing the basic apples and oranges of romantic feelings or anything. But the fact that he wasted all his time being bitter. And yes, given what he had been through I am not blaming him for being even a little angry. But to hear him saying IF HE MATTERED. That was as if saying all these late and long nights with Mimi were never enough of a reward. Mimi had to start over just like Morlak did. But even though she never got the thanks or the credit she wanted she found something better. She met her husband, had a wonderful son, and a brilliant granddaughter and got a healthy relationship of a family. Morlak is so stuck on what he wanted instead of finding what he needed. My mom always taught me: “Be grateful for what you have, not what you want in life.”
You know this kind of reminds me of King andrias when he was betrayed by leaf when she stole the calamity box and that led him never trust someone again
I don't blame the guy for being mad about being erased or forgotten. I would too if some one took credit for my work. Non white and female scientists or in any profession would agree. And have this guy seen Stranger Things?! Opening up portals to other realms lead to bodies and minds completely fucked! And those who where sent through the portal years ago might be long gone
I can understand where Maris is coming from but that doesn't excuse him for hurting Lunella, Devil and Mimi and for what? Those people that tried to take all the credit from them are gone! So there’s no need for any of this
At that point, I think he was doing it more for himself than anyone else. More than the dead assholes who erased him, he wanted it to be known in SOME way how good he was~
Yeah those people must have died by the claw or teeth of those things by now! It's been what 60 + years since that experiment went south and he would have a better life if he just let go
not to mention the enclave as a whole was equally responsible and he just made them his goons, he could have changed them or something in all this time but they are still the same cold merciless monsters they were in the past
So instead of building devices that would actually help people and get him recognized…. He decided to open a portal to some random dimension and unleash a monster army….
Morlak reminds me of Munson from Up. Only twice as tragic. Both great minds victimized by closed-mindedness, but Munson was only disgraced while Morlak was erased, reduced to a coffee maker by racists.
I can't even imagine the amount of stress and mental anguish a person would have to go through to go from a plucky young scientist wanting to change the world for the better to a cartoonish meglomaniac wanting to control it just for the satisfaction of of being treated like their work matters in any capacity by the world at large.
They actually worked for the Enclave, but I thought it was A.I.M as well given the design of their troopers and the bee logo, and A.I.M poses as a legitimate business to mask their tech terrorism and theft.
I wonder if the whole portal could be used to introduce aliens such as skrulls, annihilus, thanos or the kree....kid kree was a bit relevant in the moon girl comics at some point....also it would be interesting see Lunella face the supreme inteligence.
I don't think that his mother really said that? Also monsters are monsters and I don't think that they lesions to him any ways. So he dooming earth for his selfish reasons and he to stupid to see that. At least Mimi is smart even to see that unlike him
Watching this got me to thinking: where is Blue Marvel in all of this? Like that guy innovated portal technology and discovered the Negative Zone . . . oh wait. Just remembered all that was kept a secret, assuming of course the guy didn’t came out of his retirement like Jessica Jones and Sentry
Good monolologue by the bad guy here. Validation is important to people. Easy to give so give it. Don't be a jackass or you will get super science world conquering madmen. A complement a day saves the world today
I didn’t get it at first but then it hit me that they erased of the project because of their race. If I had that happen to me just because my skin didn’t match with another (yeah I’m white, I know it could still happen this world is still screwed up), I’d be pissed off. Now I wouldn’t go psycho, but I would sue their asses for it and make their lives hell. Who cares what race you are? It’s the person’s character and who they are that matter. I don’t care what race someone is, if they’re being a twat I give them what they deserve
What I dislike is that Mimi doesn't see it from his point of view. This is all he has. He worked his entire life for that and it was all taken and then she destroyed it and ran. She can't understand hum because she got lucky and made a family, if he went out he'd probably live the rest of his life miserable, slowly dwindling away after what could have been.
She tried at first (at least that's the impression I got from the fact she did not focus on what Morkack did to their former boss when trying to talk him out of the project). But the man simply did not show any interest in making the machine safer, only how he could harness its power. Is that someone you would trust such a powerful project with ?

Progress is to expand the chess board to include more and more pieces, by forcing them to struggle to earn a place, be it through the creation or destruction of factions among them. And individual acknowledgement is key, for every thought can ensure growth and more progress. Men like Morlack's former boss judgement of others isn't based on merit.

I feel bad that Morlak and Mimi’s friendship’s went down the drain because of the stolen project. They really did make a great team.
I was wondering if they could've been together if he didn't get so power hungry
I’m not because lunala exists now because she escaped lol
I can't blame him for being mad at the erasure, but the following megalomania seems like a step too far.
He got screwed the credit for his life's work. Then the person he thought would trust and understand his feelings betrayed him too so he couldn't even recreate it.
@@najarintheoverowrldermuge6568 Second betrayal was after the megalomania from what I recall.
Yeah I feel like he sort of skipped a few steps.
@@najarintheoverowrldermuge6568
yeah but he basically said he wanted to create an army of monsters to do who knows what and then he used an army of goons to attack a kid
When you realize that he’s the original Blade
The animation for Morlak's facial expressions alone is some of the best stuff I've seen in children's animated content
Seriously, I love the art and animation in this show so much. It's probably the best looking show Disney has ever put out imo.
This was animated by the same group that animated Rise of the TMNT (the creators actually sought them out specifically because of their work on Rise!) and you can definitely see the resemblance at points.
It hurts more when you know these happens in real life
Yeah, it feels like this is a metaphor for how real like non-white scientists were often treated.
Really?
Black people being pushed around by a society dominated by white people, surprisingly dark/mature topic for a disney show.
What do you mean it happened in real life?
Racial discrimination, prejudice, etc.
And what the villain didn’t realize that he lost the person who always saw him…The love he could’ve had too. Typical of bad guys
he really did fumble a baddie
Ironically he made his own good guy it’s usually the opposite lol 😂 dude goes bad his best friend stops being his friend and leaves she runs into a guy falls in love with him has a kid the kid has a kid who becomes a superhero who tries to stop him,the villain, from carrying out his evil plan lol
Like my mama always said "Can't ignore a man with an army of interdimensional monsters." 😂😂😂😂😂bro that's gotta be one of the best lines of any show ever
Indeed! I really wanna meet Morlak's mom now.
Maris is the perfect marvel cartoon villain an outstanding scientist who sacrificed god knows how much of his life on a single project and then his friend and the people who helped and funded it all out of no where took it all away ended his hopes and dreams in one moment but instead of letting it go he feels broken betrayed forgotten if he can't be remembered by the world then he's gonna own the world
I mean, I don't think is humanly possible to let something like that go, dude like Walter White except with no cancer
So he’s basically Walter White sans Jessie or Meth.

Yeah but…none of them wanted to make a monster army. Is it wrong that I’m a little ok with him being erased?
@@redrasegarden Hey now, we don't know this for sure. I sure would have liked a monster army.

When you realize that the voice of Maris Morlak here is the reason why Marvel is even where it’s at to begin with
Morlak reminds me of Vlad Master from Danny Phantom. No not comparing the basic apples and oranges of romantic feelings or anything. But the fact that he wasted all his time being bitter. And yes, given what he had been through I am not blaming him for being even a little angry. But to hear him saying IF HE MATTERED.

Whise words i live by
The Cool part about Mulok is that he's played by Wesley Snipes AKA Blade
Snipes is still killing it like he did as Nino and Simon
You know this kind of reminds me of King andrias when he was betrayed by leaf when she stole the calamity box and that led him never trust someone again
If things had woked out differently, Lunella would probably be calling Marris "grandpa".
That flew over my head 😮
Kinda sad.😔
I don't blame the guy for being mad about being erased or forgotten. I would too if some one took credit for my work. Non white and female scientists or in any profession would agree. And have this guy seen Stranger Things?! Opening up portals to other realms lead to bodies and minds completely fucked! And those who where sent through the portal years ago might be long gone

Yeah on paper forgiveness and forget seem easy. But hurt people hurt more people .
True…but he wanted to be seen, to be ACKNOWLEDGED!
At that point, I think he was doing it more for himself than anyone else. More than the dead assholes who erased him, he wanted it to be known in SOME way how good he was~
Yeah those people must have died by the claw or teeth of those things by now! It's been what 60 + years since that experiment went south and he would have a better life if he just let go

This is also not the first time Woodard and Snipes have worked together. 😀
Down in the Delta was the first time they worked together in 1998!!
Expect a portal like this has already been invented both by science and magic.
So instead of building devices that would actually help people and get him recognized….
He decided to open a portal to some random dimension and unleash a monster army….
I don't condone him but I understand him. He reminds me of Magneto.
I really hope Moon Girl has more episodes that deal with racism, while still be integrated into the story driven narrative of this show.
they do deal with the topics with more grace, seamlessly blending it into the story.
It would be funny if his mom had acually said that thing about ignoreing someone with an army of monsters 😊
Its like Maya from Proud Family, except his actions are actually viewed as villainous.
Maya never did anything like this.
Penny did call her out. It just never stuck.
@@Jayday12345678910she did try to steal a panda 🐼 in the first episode
@@kaykay8855 And she was rightfully called out on in said episode.

You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become a villain.
