As the old adage goes "Those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it" and I'm a strong believer in that saying. In today's society where the importance of teaching history seems to be at an all time low I think it's even more important that films pick up of the slack of generating interest in learning about history. I'm not saying that films should be "teaching" history but perhaps they can act as the catalyst that will drive a child or even an adult to pick up a book and learn more about a historical subject they might have not have ever cared about previously. Racism and bigotry is an important issue in American history and telling the story of the first African American military aviators is still relevant today. Unfortunately, for Red Tails the story of the Tuskegee Airmen has already been told in a much better and less cringe inducing film surprisingly called The Tuskegee Airmen.
After a rough start to 2025 with Brave New World, Marvel hopes to strike back with Thunderbolts. Featuring a ragtag group of misfits from previous MCU movies and a new character that’s insanely powerful, Thunderbolts tells the story of damaged people overcoming their trauma to become heroes. RPadTV host Raymond Padilla is joined by videogame industry veterans Paul Semel and Marcus Beer to discuss the movie and see if it lives up to its comic-book tagline of “Justice, Like Lightning.”
The three will discuss what they liked and didn’t like about Thunderbolts, including their favorite performances and scenes, as well as what could have been improved. Early reviews of the movie have been strong and RPadTV’s version of Thunderbolts (The Sparklers?!?) can’t wait to talk about the latest MCU movie with you.
Deeply disappointed that no one yelled, "Thunder! Thunder! Thunderbolts, ho!"
Good conversation otherwise, though.
The director of the new Evil Dead film wants to leave audiences physically exhausted.
Those pesky log trucks return in Final Destination Bloodlines.
