Christ in Avengers:Endgame and other Summer Movies with Jim Papandrea-CMAW066

What You'll Hear: Listen to the first interview Episode 51 where we talk about how to analyze SciFi movies and the extent to which they deviate from the true story of Christ The highest score from the book was Dr. Who, the lowest score was Star Trek Star Wars: The Last Jedi - Luke Skywalker varies in terms of being more or less Christ-like Spiderman starts out as a regular guy and becomes something greater but gets a higher score than most because his powers are of a kind that are a bio-enhanced human and not anyone can wear the suit, but with Into the Spider-Verse anyone can wear the suit, but good and evil is present in every universe Black Panther is a complex story, it does not over-simplify good and evil, it doesn't glorify violence but values reconciliation over revenge, it goes against the idea that you fix chaos by creating chaos Aquaman was bad, it was very cliche, the Trident was a rip-off of Thor's hammer, it had a heavy handed environmental message, it raises rules but doesn't say who makes the rules, and Aquaman is not really the hero With Avengers: Endgame was a good movie, but more is not better, there isn't enough for all of them to do, Captain Marvel could have done it all herself, the moment where these stories are most powerful are when the individual is redeemed, beer-belly Thor was very funny, why is Captain America worthy if Thor is a god?, why couldn't they save their friends with time travel? Check out The Time Machine with Guy Pierce and The Time Signature book where the time machine runs on music The Hulk combining his two natures could elude to the wrestle with the flesh and the spirit Under all of these stories, especially those more in the realm of fantasy is a question of who runs the universe, since there is no acknowledgment of one God, but rather suggests the universe itself is a god The women are the heroes in Endgame, Natasha is a Christ figure as well since she sacrifices herself Leeloo in the 5th Element is very close to the Christ figure, she descends to earth, there's an incarnation, there's a sacrifice, she's not one of us www.DrJimsBooks.com, look for "Star Wars to Superman"
