Incinerating instantly a mere 100000 people was nothing, just a prelude to the Cold War that threatened to wipe out all intelligent life from the planet. It was him, not the germans. He led the team, he took the responsibility. He killed those people and he let the nuclear techology loose and he could not control it anymore, he could not take it back or make it stop.

    • @Anino_Makata

      I think the reason why Oppenheimer's spaced out look seems so tragic, is because you can tell he's focusing less on the battle, and more on a memory. And with his solemn and depressed expression, you can feel the pain and regret in your heart.
      That's just genius, and I think we found the act that's gonna top Pete's Austin Powers performance as his best one yet!

    Suggestions for the Thanos costume in the future:
    * A taller actor, or some kind of stilts for Lloyd.
    * Bulk up the arms some more.
    These should help mitigate the size of the costume's head, and provide it better on-screen proportions. In this behind-the-scenes footage, Lloyd looks good in the costume. In the actual rap battle video, however, the costume makes Lloyd's head look cartoonish and bulbous, in contrast to the remainder of his body.

  • @paladonis

    Congrats Morgan!
    I remember a History discussion I had when I was younger about Oppenheimer and my teacher asked us "What if Oppenheimer had thought 'I can use that to create large energy sources' instead of 'Let's design a bomb'. How would WW2 have turned out or how might the World be different?" It was a really provocative question. I always figured it would mean we might be living more like the Jetsons right now as we would be focusing on other things instead of Nuclear Disarmament. I also remember that I thought someone else would have just progressed with a bomb and Oppenheimer would have been hidden away or called out as a nut job cause big energy. Yes. I kinda had that mentality at 16. LOL.
    I don't remember the conversation much as it was like 22 years ago, but I do remember some of the questions. Today, I think we would have stopped Japan without the bombs. Russia had just declared War against Japan as well, but we dropped the bombs mere hours afterwards. Dunno what kinda outcome it might have been, but I think it could have been done without the bombs. It, to me, was more of a flex on the World stage at our resourcefulness and put us into the World Dominant Power view overnight. Feel free to chime in if you have thoughts too, but keep it civil please.

    • @enigmaticenigma7808
      @enigmaticenigma7808 3 года назад +1

      I think it was more about lives lost because the island hopping campaign was BRUTAL. The causalities were high, so what would happen when they get to the mainland of Japan?
      They probably could've won without the bombs, but all the same, Japan would not have gone down without a fight. So it's more like, should we do this that is bound to kill a lot of people and end the war? Or should we fight for another year to slog through Japan, while losing thousands of American lives and probably countless Japanese (civilian or otherwise) lives as well?
      This is all I was taught in school, so it might be wrong. Just my two cents.

      One (or two) of the problems with that is (are) this(these):
      The royalty and the concept of "giri" (respect to authority).
      The giri and some social manipulation was what caused them to provide kamikaze's consistently.
      The royalty, as royalties tend to do, did not worry about casualties overseas as long as they were not personally impacted.
      The atom bombs did one main thing to end the war with Japan: spook the higher ups.
      The emperor was actually intending to surrender after the first one, but his generals were like , "naaah, that was the only one ". The 2nd one informed that , no, that was not the only one.
      I dunno what would've happened in the alternative, but I doubt Japan of that time would've surrendered until their capital was sacked, through either allied forces or rebellion by "commoners"

    I love the approach you took for Oppenheimer. It was a super good choice, it had so much weight and was so powerful. I keep returning to just watch him.

    i just want to appreciate the work josh did on the hands. a lot of those little things that take a long time to do for a seemingly small thing make the final video so much better
