Avengers: Thunder (Unexpected Musical) — PattyCake Productions music video
youtube
Few movie franchises have had a greater impact on the film industry and online fandom in the 21st century than the MCU, particularly when the first Avengers movie brought together heroes from across the Marvel universe. So when PattyCake wanted to match the bombast of this Imagine Dragons banger, they turned to the larger-than-life characters from the silver screen.
Details:
title: Unexpected Musicals — Avengers: Thunder
performers: Jeremy James (Tony Stark / featured vocals); John Wright (Thor); Leah Lowman (Black Widow); Erich Dale (Captain America); Tony Flaherty (Star-Lord / featured vocals); Jackie Stressman Isham (Gamora / featured vocals); J.None (Black Panther / featured vocals); Skeet Karsgaard (Spider-Man); Billy Celiz (Iron Man double); Jason Tibbs (Black Panther double); Eli Jacobson, Tony Wakim, & Layne Stein (additional vocals)
original songs / performers: "Avengers theme" from The Avengers (2012); "Thunder" by Imagine Dragons; "Pray for Me" by The Weeknd, feat. Kendrick Lamar from Black Panther (2018)
written by: "Avengers theme" by Alan Silvestri; "Thunder" by Dan Reynolds, Wayne Sermon, Ben McKee, Daniel Platzman, Alexander Grant, Jayson DeZuzio, & Frederick Hansen; "Pray For Me" by Abel "the Weeknd" Tesfaye, Kendrick Lamar, Adam "Ging" Feeney, Jason "DaHeala" Quenneville, & Martin "Doc" McKinney
arranged by: Layne Stein & Tony Wakim
release date: 8 June 2018
My favorite bits:
reworking the Marvel Studios intro, complete with page-flip sounds
positioning Stark as the ♫ "young gun with a quick fuse" ♫
of course Thor gets the first iteration of ♫ "lightning before the thunder" ♫ as he should
Leah recreating Natasha's iconic landing pose
Star-Lord's little characteristic smirk
the slow bell chord under the end of Gamora's section
integrating the repulsors and blasters into the percussion
J.None spitting those Kendrick bars in T'Challa's accent
that unmistakable horn line under the choruses
sneaking in a nice animated Hulk silhouette















Trivia:
○ This video features a combination of familiar faces and new ones, but most are friends from the Orlando theme park performance community. Of the folks who hadn't appeared in previous PattyCake projects:
John and Erich are both longtime actors and stunt performers at Universal Studios.
Skeet is a costumer and special effects makeup tech.
Tony F. has performed in several vocal groups at both Universal Studios and Disney World. He was also a member of a cappella group Echo, who were VoicePlay's backups for their annual residencies in Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party at Disney World.
○ Although Tony Wakim usually makes all of PattyCake's costumes, this time he had help from some members of the local Guardians of Justice cosplay and volunteering group. That included Skeet wearing his own custom Spidey suit.
○ Several of the other superhero costume pieces and props for this video were created by Dynamic Duo Fabrications in Boston, another small business run by passionate geeks.
○ PattyCake had produced a handful of videos for groups from Jeremy's company, Entertainment Central Productions, so it was only fair that the guys pulled him into one of their own projects.
○ J.None kept his costume and used it for a kid's birthday party shortly thereafter.
○ This video is part of a loose pair celebrating Marvel and DC comic book movies with tracks from the latest Imagine Dragons album at the time. Its companion piece, "Batman: Whatever It Takes", was released a few weeks earlier.

Lilith Lokidottir is done waiting for her knight in shining armor AKA her father to come and save her. He left when she was ten, her just accepted to Hogwarts and a newborn half-sister. Six years later, everyone she knew and loved but her sister and her best friend’s godson Teddy is dead in Voldemort’s Xenocide, and she deosn’t have anything to go off of but the plans her, Hermione, Ron, and Luna made in the dead of night, on the run from Voldemort controlled magical England. Like always, Lilith will continue on, and she will triumph in the end. The Girl-Who-Lived may have died, but nobody defeats the power of death. Not SHIELD, not Asgard, not anybody. Like her familiar, inherited from her mentor Albus Dumbledore, Lilith will rise from the ashes of the xenocide, and she will rebuild the world, better than it was before. Sure, there’ll be the ups and downs, c’est la vie. Because through hel and back, Lilith lives. She won’t just change the world, just touch Earth, her influence will reach the furthest corners of the galaxy, and not even chaos can stop death. Certainly not some impostor claiming to right the balance of the universe which is perfectly decent, thank you very much. Warnings in intro.

Thoughts on AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR

Spoilers.
Serious.
Spoilers.
This felt like a big comic event, where every other page turn leads to a huge splash with all the characters battling in chaos. This wasn’t just a superhero movie; It was, like the source material, an event. Characters who run their own franchises often get smaller, supportive roles in things like this. So it made sense that Black Panther serves more as a field general than a lead hero. The only hero I felt got way too shortchanged was Cap. Tony, Hulk, Thor, Strange, Gamora, and Starlord got meaningful Thanos interactions, but Cap just sparred with him a bit. As far as Thanos being fascinated/amused by characters go, I think he’d be fascinated by Cap the most, but they didn’t tap into that at all. Alas.
Most criticisms of the movie could, I think, be dispelled by the fact that this movie took place over the course of a single day, maybe two. So it’s not about plot, or a journey. It’s about surviving a train wreck. I imagine the next film will decompress a little. This doesn’t stand alone as its own movie, but it’s not meant to. And that’s okay. When we learned more and more, film by film, of what Marvel was building here, we knew what we were signing up for. This is a culmination of 18 films that have come before. The major enjoyment was in the chemistry between the characters. Those we’ve seen together before (Bruce and Tony) and new combinations (Thor and the Guardians). Yes, this was characters meeting each other for two and a half hours, but it was always great. I want a spin-off called “Pirate Angel and Sweet Rabbit.”
Thanos was great. They nailed it. Could easily have been just a power-crazed thug (a la Ronan the Accuser), but they went the extra mile, making him nuanced, sad, and compelling. He’s evil, of course, but his conviction sells it. Even when he’s getting mind-melded, or when he’s got an oversized axe shoved in his chest. I love that he expresses admiration and liking to the heroes. He likes Starlord, “ah, the boyfriend.” and leans in to tell Tony Stark he respects him (right after stabbing him, which is messed up but great). It’s sincere. I wish he’d have had such an exchange with Cap. Thanos was the hero of the movie, and that’s the most bold part of this movie. So, it’s little wonder why Thanos was so sympathetic; the movie was structured for that. He was the protagonist, facing off against a small army of antagonists. The reversal worked, and was the smart way to approach having so many characters in the movie.
Josh Brolin was so good, and I love that the animators and effects guys were able to capture so much of what makes Brolin’s face work. The way Brolin talks as he smiles is a signature of his and Thanos had that, too.
Speaking of so many characters, this was the only movie that could get away with that. They put in the work (18 films worth) that laid the foundation for all this. So when two characters reunite, or two characters meet, we don’t need all the space we might otherwise need. Natasha and Bruce could have used a bit more time. Cap and Bucky definitely needed one more scene. I mean, Bucky is cured! We should see some relief on Cap’s face. He’s weighed down by a whole lot (and he’s just always sad) so some actual good news would have been nice for him to process.
Peter Quill’s freakout at the news of Gamora’s death really did mess things up, but it was totally in character. He hasn’t emotionally matured since he left Earth (notice how much he tried to deflect a serious conversation with Gamora before she literally put her hand on his mouth to shut him up). Peter has done this kind of thing before. When he learned that Ego, his beloved father, revealed that he killed Peter’s mom, Peter didn’t hesitate to start blasting away in rage. He’s emotionally juvenile and that’s his major flaw. Also kinda why we love him.
As many have posited, I agree that Strange giving up the stone to save Tony wasn’t an act of love or anything. It was a calculation. When he went forward in time to see all the possibilities, the only one that would save everyone involved complete failure, and certain death for Strange. Thanos had to get the stones, do his thing, and win. Defeat on the oth to ultimate victory. Whatever Strange saw as that one possibility, it needed Tony alive, and Strange had to sacrifice himself to ensure it came to pass. As he said, there was no other way. It’s a strategic retreat, in a way.
The acting MVP is Robert Downey Jr. The whole cinematic experiment rested on his shoulders from the beginning and it never let up; he’s been game to carry it and carry it well. And here he is at his most excellent. His rocky mentorship of Spider-Man, his reluctance to call Cap, his alpha-posturing with Doctor Strange (their chemistry was flawless), his exasperation with the Guardians (his reaction to “kick names and take ass” alone was Oscar-worthy). Three of my favorite lines came from him (perfect deliveries, all): “I’m sorry, Earth is closed today!” and “Dude, you’re embarrassing me in front of the wizards.” and “If you throw one more moon at me, I’m gonna lose it.” Tony's sleepless obsession with Earth’s protection over the past six years has paid off here with desperation and sacrifice and terrible defeat. He couldn’t stop the threat he’s been dreading. Now he’s stuck on Titan with Nebula, with no way home. RDJ sold every inch of his screen time here. I’ve always loved that Tony is an arrogant prick, but he’s always ready to go on a one-way trip if it means protecting people. No hesitation. With most of his suit destroyed he still goes after Thanos. No wonder Thanos respects him; how could you not? That’s the kind of beautiful idiosyncrasy that’s made Tony Stark such a great character for ten years.
Also, I really hope that Cap and Iron Man travel to Vormir to learn about the Soul Realm so Cap and Red Skull can interact. That’d just be a treat.
Some favorite odds and ends:
-Ebony Maw as a grandiose, self-righteous baddie. He was great.
-“Magic with a kick!”
-The silhouetted shot of Peter Quill pumping his fist to the music gave me chills. A perfect character intro.
-Thanos’ sacrifice for the Soul Stone.
-“All that for a drop of blood."
-Gamora asking Peter for the favor wrecked me. WRECKED ME.
-Doctor Strange talking to Thanos.
-Bruce getting angry at the Hulk.
-Bruce piloting the Hulkbuster.
-Bruce saving himself when Hulk refused to show up.
-Bruce when Thor shows up. “Oh, you guys are so screwed now!"
-Basically everything Bruce.
-Thanos’ expressions when Mantis was on him. And his expressions when Thor pushed Stormbreaker further into him. Thanos pushing through pain was extraordinary. “You should have aimed for the head."
-Rocket trying to buy Bucky’s arm.
-Nick Fury muttering “Mother f…” as he disappeared.
-“I am Steve Rogers."

Was that [ZOE SALDANA]? Oh no no, that was just [GAMORA], a [CANON CHARACTER] from [MARVEL/GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY]. They are [27] years old and [ARE] aware that they are not actually from Washington DC. Too bad they can’t stray from this city for long.
Character Basics:
Name:
Gamora
Age:
27
Height:
1,69m/5’6
Time in Washington DC:
8 months.
Job:
She got a job teaching martial arts at a local gym.
Other information:
Gamora arrived in DC while she was with the rest of the Guardians of the Galaxy about to come across the ruins of Asgard. She has no memories of the events of Infinity war, which includes her death and all of the Guardians’ fate. She doesn’t know what Thanos did, or that her sister was tortured and information forced out of her.
When she arrived on earth, the green hue of her skin started to fade away, which she gives little thought to. She assumes it’s just because of the earth’s atmosphere.
She’s been having a rough month completely adapting to earth, which might come across as her being crass and too direct, but it’s merely frustration.
When she got here she lost all her weapons, but she does carry some earth-produced weapons with her since she got here.
