Transcript
- 0:00What's up, everyone? This is Evolution. I am Brandon Fogle.
- 0:04I'm going to dive in today just to recap of the movie Thunderbolts.
- 0:08If you have not seen that movie, you should definitely go out and check it out.
- 0:12We went and saw that this weekend, and it was so good, I had to talk about it.
- 0:17It was so good, I had to talk about it. It was surprisingly good.
- 0:20First of all, I saw Tim Poole had actually tweeted about this,
- 0:25that he went and saw it, and he gave it a, he said it was a very good movie.
- 0:29And he said he gave it a seven out of 10, which for me, my books,
- 0:33seven out of 10, I don't know if that's a very good movie, but I mean,
- 0:35everybody has different scales of what they're working with and how they rate movies.
- 0:40I would at least give it an eight. The movie was, for me, surprisingly good.
- 0:45It was surprisingly good. I did not have a lot of hope built up and expectations
- 0:49of it, but it was very good, very good.
- 0:52So I would highly recommend go and see it. but I did
- 0:54want to just talk about it had a very surprising message
- 0:59something that I don't know if
- 1:01a lot of Marvel movies have these types of messages but
- 1:05I'm not a Marvel maniac I'm not a Marvel maniac
- 1:08and I would be upfront and honest and tell you that I'm not a
- 1:11Marvel maniac we go to these movies and the I call them a cult it's a little
- 1:16bit of a cult you know these people that they go to these Marvel movies and
- 1:20they're Marvel maniacs and then they wait to the very end they watch the whole
- 1:24movie and then they sit in there and they're waiting for something that's going
- 1:28to happen at the end of every Marvel movie.
- 1:31So you Marvel maniacs that know what's going on there.
- 1:34We have not really done that. I have not really done that.
- 1:37And to me, it's now a pride issue. I just get up and walk out when I'm the only
- 1:42one walking out of there.
- 1:43Just not, you know, but but either way, it was very good. It had an awesome
- 1:47message in it. I don't want to I'm not going to spoil anything.
- 1:50If you know me at all, I am like the king of non-spoilers that I don't even
- 1:56want to hear anything about a movie.
- 1:57I don't even want to see a trailer about a movie if I'm going to go in and see it.
- 2:01But I had to talk about this one because it had such a good,
- 2:05uplifting message for anyone, anyone that's out there.
- 2:09And there's so much that goes into it, but it has to do with just,
- 2:13I would say, loneliness and feeling that you are alone in this universe and
- 2:19just blackness, just like the darkness just overwhelms certain people.
- 2:24And it does. It overwhelms a lot of people and filling that void.
- 2:29And there's some really cool moments in it where somebody's talking and somebody else is talking.
- 2:35I'm not going to say no, but somebody's talking and they're saying,
- 2:37you know, you got to take that void, that void that you got in you and you just
- 2:41got to bury it. Bury it. Don't even...
- 2:46Don't even talk about it. Don't bring it up, you know, and all that.
- 2:49And there's a lot of truth in that.
- 2:51There is a lot of truth in that. And I had to talk about this because the more
- 2:55that I have come along talking about all your feelings and getting on,
- 3:01being on the therapist chair or whatever.
- 3:04Bed, whatever those couch, the therapist couch, maybe might not be the best thing for everyone.
- 3:10We don't, I don't know if we need to unearth everything that is deep down inside
- 3:14of us. It's just like, sometimes you just got to like, you got to just not let
- 3:18it see the light of day because it can almost bring out some more darkness.
- 3:22You know, sometimes, I don't know.
- 3:24This is the, this is my perspective, my perspective.
- 3:26And just like saying, like, if you make, if you put yourself in a position,
- 3:30I'm going to be sad about everything. It's easy to be sad about everything.
- 3:34If you allow yourself to think you could be depressed and you're thinking that
- 3:38whole mindset, you're going to be depressed.
- 3:40If you start getting just where you can't breathe and you're just in your thoughts
- 3:45and they can overwhelm you. They can overwhelm you.
- 3:49And it has to do, in this movie, there's a lot of, it brings it all together
- 3:53that you need community. You need people.
- 3:56Everybody needs people that they can rely on, people that they can look to.
- 4:01And I would ultimately say the only thing that's really going to fill the void,
- 4:05truly fill the void that everybody has is God.
- 4:09Now, but that's for, either way, this was, it was extremely funny.
- 4:15There were so many funny parts. It was, it was not boring at all.
- 4:18Some of the, some of the scenes, I, I, I, I, I guess I, I'm not,
- 4:25I'm not in the whole, like, I don't want to give away anything.
- 4:28I'm, I'm, I have to be, I want to be super careful. I don't want to give it
- 4:31away anything, but it was very good. If you have not seen it,
- 4:35you should definitely go.
- 4:35I mean, I'm not even getting paid for this. I'm not even gonna pay for this.
- 4:38I'm saying, go, go see it, go see it. It's a really good one. It's a really good one.
- 4:41You should go check out Thunderbolts. I had to talk about this,
- 4:44but if you are searching and you do feel like you are lonely in this world that
- 4:48you don't have anyone you can rely on, you do. You do have people you can rely on.
- 4:53There's always someone there and everybody is going through this.
- 4:56We are all thrown into this lump of mess that is our world and is our life.
- 5:00We did not choose to become, we did not choose to come into this world,
- 5:03but we're all here. We're all here.
- 5:05We're all figuring it out and understanding that there's commonality between
- 5:09everybody and everybody you're going to run into today.
- 5:13Everybody's going through something and we can all lean on and rely on each other.
- 5:17So I just wanted to talk about that. So I hope you can take it for what it is.
- 5:22I hope you go see the movie. It was awesome. All right. Peace, everyone.
