Welcome back to another example of proof by cases. The proposition this time looks a little strange, so let's think about it. For all integers n, if five does not divide n, then either n squared is congruent to one mod five, or n squared is congruent to four mod five. Now in the last screencast, we said that before we can prove something, we need to come to grips with three questions. What are the terms mean in the statement? Why should we use cases if we're going to think about using cases? And then what are the cases? The main term here is the notion of integer congruence. So let's just recall that a is congruent to b mod five. And mod five congruence is the only thing we need to remember here. That means that five divides a minus b. Now under the surface there's another term, the notion of five dividing something. So recall again that five divides x means that there exists an integer such that x is equal to five times k. Now something that we have to think about in this problem is what would it mean for five not to divide x? Well on the surface it means that there is no integer k such that x equals 5k. But if you dig a little deeper you can get more to work with. If five doesn't divide x evenly then think back to your basic arithmetic and what does this mean? If five doesn't divide x evenly then it must divide with a remainder leftover. Now that's a basic fact of long division and another basic fact of long division is that the remainder can only be one, two, three, or four. The remainder couldn't be zero because otherwise five would divide x evenly and we're saying that it doesn't. And the remainder can't be any larger than four because in long division, remember if you're dividing by five and you end up with a remainder that's five or larger, it just means that you could divide again. So keep this notion about the remainders in mind. Second, why should we use cases in this case? Well, realize that we may not decide to use cases here. Just because we're in a section called proof by cases doesn't mean that we're gonna do it this way all the time. Let's consider the alternatives. If we use the contrapositive we'd have to negate the disjunction that's there in the conclusion and that would say that if n squared is not congruent to one mod five and n squared is not congruent to four mod five, then five does divide n. This seems complicated, but not overly so. I mean, it is conceivable that we could prove this by contraposition. But on the other hand, a direct proof would involve assuming a negative statement and this would assume involving two negative statements. So I just work with one negative statement instead of two. A proof by contradiction would involve assuming three things. Five does not divide n, n squared is not congruent to one mod five and n squared is not congruent to four mod five. That's three assumptions and that's good for us because that's a lot of information to have on our side. But that information isn't terribly informative because all the assumptions are statements that are phrased in the negative. Still, you could try to do this by contradiction and it might be a decent exercise to give it a shot. Actually, the cases come in if you attempt a direct proof. So just one thing to mention, we call this proof by cases, but it's really not any, a different method of proof. It's no different than direct proof. It's just a way that you could go if you attempt a direct proof in this case. A direct proof would involve assuming five does not divide n. Then show that either n squared is congruent to one mod five or n squared is congruent to four mod five. The cases would come in a couple of points here. For one thing, if you're proving that one or another of two possible conclusions holds, then cases could be useful. Because in each case, literally one or the other of those statements in the conclusion might hold. The other thing to mention segues into the question of what the cases are. And I'm going to give this to you as a concept check. How many cases do you think they're going to be here? What's the minimal amount of cases that we need to prove this theorem? Is it two, three, four, five, or none of the above? Pause the video and come back with your answer. So a smart way to set up cases in this particular problem would involve four cases. And those cases are based on the observation we made earlier that if five doesn't divide n, then when you do divide five into n, you get one of four possible remainders, one, two, three, or four. And so we're going to set up one case for each of those four possibilities. This situation breaks naturally into four non-overlapping cases that cover all the bases here. In each case, we're going to show that either n squared is congruent to one mod five or n squared is congruent to four mod five. Before we do that, here's how we're going to think of the remainders. If five divided n, that would mean that there would exist an integer k such that n is equal to five times k. If n divided by five, on the other hand, has remainder of one, then there exists an integer k such that n is equal to five k plus one. That plus one indicates the remainder. For example, 31 can be written as 31 equals five times six plus one, and there's the remainder. Likewise, if n divided by five has remainder two, then there exists an integer k such that n is equal to five k plus two. And so on for the remainders three and four. This is sort of like the notion of a type one integer that you looked at some time ago. So with that representation, we'll jump into the cases. So case one, let's assume that n divided by five has remainder one. And again, how we're writing that is that we're going to assume that n is equal to five k plus one for some integer k. Then we want to show that either n squared is congruent to one mod five or n squared is congruent to four mod five. That means five divides either n squared minus one or five divides n squared minus four. Now if you look at n squared minus one, you can substitute in n is equal to five k plus one and do some algebra. And you see that in this case, five does indeed divide n squared minus one. So therefore, n squared is congruent to one mod five as desired. Since one of the statements in the disjunction is true, we've proven the result, we do not have to deal with the other possible case in that disjunction. In case two, we're going to assume that five divided by n has remainder two. And again, we're going to write that as, assume that n is equal to five k plus two for some integer k. In this case, if we try to substitute into n squared minus one, we do not get what we want here. Let me just do the scratch work up here in the margins. Remember, we want to prove that n squared minus one is divisible by five. But if you work it out, it just doesn't happen and there's no way we can make it happen. But fortunately, remember that we don't have to prove that n squared minus one is divisible by five. Just that either n squared minus one or n squared minus four is divisible by five. So in this case, n squared minus one didn't give us something divisible by five. So let's look at the other expression, n squared minus four. In this case, if I substitute in n equals five k plus two into n squared minus four, we do the math and in the end, we get a multiple of five. So in case two, n squared is congruent to four mod five. Again, only one of the two statements in the disjunction that sits there in the conclusion needs to be satisfied. I'll just quickly move through the remaining two cases and you can pause the video and look at the text at any point you want. In case three, assume that n is equal to five k plus three for some integer k. That's the remainder three case. So putting this into n squared minus four gives us something divisible by five. And so in this case, n squared is congruent to four mod five. Finally, in case four, assume that n is equal to five k plus four for some integer k, putting this into n squared minus one and doing the math gives us something that's divisible by five. So in this case, n squared is congruent to one mod five. In each of the four possible cases, we got that n squared was congruent to either one mod five or four mod five. And so now the result is completely proven. So this proof using cases shows that proof by cases isn't really a new method. It's just a direction that we can take when writing a proof. And sometimes having something phrased in the negative such as five does not divide n, can actually work in our favor if we know how to rephrase that statement as something positive. Thanks for watching.


Many of you who are watching this have seen me create content consistently for months or for years. I've been doing it consistently ever since 2016, was well, 2015 actually middle of 2015, I committed to it. I started out with, you know, making five short videos a week, every week until I got to 100 videos. And then once I got to 100, I got down to just three videos a week with some blog posts and then blah, blah, blah, and on and on. Now I do one new, well two new videos per week and a new blog post per week plus repurposed content. But what I want to say about all this is that it's changed my business and it's changed my life as well. And I wish this kind of consistent discipline for more of you who are watching this. And I'll tell you why. I started, like I said, I started in the middle of 2015 flailing around, not really knowing what I was doing.  I was, you know, thankfully in the beginning already, I was already practicing being okay, making a fool of myself, which is one of the keys to authentic content is the practice of being willing to be embarrassed. Because knowing what happens is you get stronger, right? Like you think this might be a little vulnerable and embarrassing, but you still think it serves. That's the key. It's not just dumping your problems onto the world, but it's sharing something that may be a little bit embarrassing, but you believe that it will serve your ideal viewer, reader in some way, listener in some way. So I started playing around with this in, you know, 2015 middle of it. And then I noticed by the end of 2016, so about a year and a half later, I suddenly noticed, and it probably was occurring since the middle of 2016, about a year, but a year and a half later, being so consistent with it and being willing to be authentic or whatever that means for you, but for me, it was to be willing to be embarrassed, embarrassing, and every time I did that and I saw that I was still alive, not only was I still alive, people seemed to find some kind of benefit or at least entertainment in it. And I got stronger every time I did it.  Isn't that interesting? Not only is it okay, it's getting me clients. How interesting is that? So I was gonna say by the end of 2016, so within a year and a half, I noticed I had a waiting list of clients. And I haven't not had a waiting list since the end of 2016. Yeah, for years now I've had a waiting list. So it's the weirdest thing. And really, it's like I had been in business by that point since 2009. And I was always fighting and struggling to make the business work. But once I started practicing being authentically exploring my experiences and passions, gifts, interests, and also doing it in service to humanity, you might say, or at the very least to my audience, something shifted in my energy, my energy signature perhaps, you might say, have got a lot brighter and ideal clients started coming my way. So this is why I, I mean, this is only one reason. So I wanna tell you a couple of reasons why this practice of consistently creating authentic content is so important. So that's one reason. The second reason is that when we create authentic content and share it consistently, we start to find this intersection between our passion, our energy, our skills and experiences that we wanna offer the world and what the world actually wants from us. The quote from Frederick Buechner has guided me for many years, which is the place that God calls you to is where your deep gladness meets the world's deep hunger. I'm paraphrasing that. And you can also take the word God and then put consciousness or soul or higher self or the universe. So where you are called in this life, particularly in regards to your work, okay, is that intersection, that sweet spot between your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger. And another way I would say it is the intersection between your creativity and the markets wants at this time. And that circle is always shifting as society changes and as you change. So that's the second reason why we create content consistently because it is an exploration. It is the most powerful tool for exploration that I know. In terms of exploring yourself and exploring your calling, because what are you gonna do? You're gonna create in your own private room and then try to sell what you created to the world. It, as you know, probably, because you've tried it before, usually it doesn't work because we haven't collaborated enough with our audience. And that's what creating content the whole time. Another very wise content creator once told me and this guy has sold, you know, New York Times bestseller books. He said, you know, George, creating content consistently is like always having a focus group. It has that same effect. You're always testing your audience to see how. I shared these, the last 10 pieces of content that I shared, which of the 10 really struck a chord. And then the past 10 before that, which one really struck a chord? And then you start to connect, does it go, oh my gosh, my audience really likes this aspect of what I say and how I show up. And they don't connect as much with these other aspects. That's important to know too. But the problem with us creators is that because we create, this is true for all creators, we are automatically biased towards our own experience and our own creations, of course. And the act of spending time and energy writing or creating or recording or thinking through things makes that thing so much more valuable to you than it is to the person who just saw it after it's been done. That's where it's okay. So this is why we have to keep creating, keep sharing, keep sharing, keep. And then notice what works and just be agnostic to go, I don't know what's gonna work. I'm gonna share my next 10 pieces of content, you know, maybe one, two or three per week or whatever and go from there. So again, first purpose was, first purpose, a lot of you are here for us. Yes, I want more clients, please. I want more ideal clients. Well, creating authentic content consistently will help you to get there because your energy shifts. And I'll say one more thing about that. It's true that the content being shared out there does the social media algorithms and word of mouth does bring people to you. But I really believe it's not just that the content's being consumed that gets you clients. It's really that your energy shifted because you are willing to practice authenticity really creating from your own voice and your own experiences. And in my case, being willing to make myself a fool, to make myself embarrassed whenever needed in order to make mistakes as often as I need to, publicly, publicly in on video, especially even or in writing typos and all because something about the energy shifts that I think there's, I know I'm not an expert on subtle energy, but there's some vibrational change perhaps that suddenly people wanna work with you more than before. It's a weird, you could say you've built this a level of authentic confidence or the depth of authentic expression that makes you far more attractive to your ideal clients, not to attractive to everybody, obviously, but to your ideal clients. And I think that's why I've had a waiting list since then. So clients, number one, number two, calling. Some people might think it's even more important than clients. And number three is creativity fitness. So I'll seize here, clients calling creativity fitness. I want to live a long and fulfilling life, don't you? Or at least as fulfilling a life as I can while I'm alive. I'll say that, so I'll say it that way. And over the years, nothing has made me more fulfilled and more proud of my achievements than knowing that I am building this creativity fitness muscle, which comes through authentic, consistent creating. And yeah, I feel like ever since I've been creating, I've gotten smarter, I've gotten better at communicating. I have just basically kept my mind sharp and kept my heart alive and excited for what's next. And I think it spills over into other aspects of life and business as well. So creativity fitness is like physical fitness. When you practice, you stay fit. When you don't practice, you lose that fitness. And also similar to physical fitness, there's a stamina issue, there's a stamina question, meaning you don't just go, I've never run in my life and I'm gonna go and run a marathon now, then your body will break down, you'll despise the act of running forever or something. No, but if same thing is, oh, I'm not consistent in creating right now. So I'm gonna now commit to every day for a year. You might make it maybe, and but then you might also collapse and burn out and despise creating for a while. So there's a stamina issue of like building up to it. You have to build up to build up many reasons, build up to just the act of showing up at the computer. I mean, just building up just, there's many things that you have to build up your stamina for, just being at the computer, for example, that's how most of us create anyway, or however you create using your phone or whatever. There's the act of like wrestling with ideas and like wrestling with a blank page and being okay with that until something happens. And that's the stamina there that you have to build up. And then blank page or blank or not knowing how to start the video or whatever, however you're creating.  I'm used to the feeling of pressing publish and wanting to run away and like hide or get therapy. Publish and then get therapy, like that's what, it's all these reasons we need to build up our creativity fitness. But when as you do, you start noticing just like with physical fitness, you look at yourself in the mirror and go, yep, I'm seeing the muscles or I'm seeing myself, getting into the shape that I want to get into. Same thing with creativity fitness. You can proudly look at your consistency and you go, my goodness, how did I get to a hundred articles? How did I get to 50 videos that I've made? Let's keep going. I have so much more and that's the last thing I'll say is, you will find very importantly that as you create, you'll have even more ideas to create with. Like today I have many, many more ideas than I have ever time to action or create and to put into place as those of you who have been following my stuff know, like I'm always launching this and launching that. Well, that comes from a creative being creatively fit. That's what I want for you as well.  So I hope these reasons are inspiring for you and good enough for you to wanna commit to the process of consistently creating authentic content.  And you build up your creativity fitness, which has so many cascading benefits in your life and for your health as well. So go for it. Let yourself begin the process of consistently creating authentic content. And for those of you who would like support from me and the community for doing this, I have a program called The Soul Gym. Just look at the video, look at the notes below the video and whatever the program is called at this point. If someone may be watching this years down the road, click on the link and there you'll see the community of support coaching program that helps you to stay consistent with creating authentic content and teaches you how to do so over time.


You guys can put your hands together for Sabrina and she's going to come to the front and she also has a testimony from last Sunday with a guest speaker who was praying for healing. So can you begin to tell us what was the problem that you were having with your body? I had scoliosis and my back, my lower back would hurt a lot. What would that bring into your life and how that affected your life? It affected my legs. I had my left leg longer, my right leg is longer than my left leg. And how did that affect your life? I would have a lot of pain on my lower back. It kind of became normal for me. It was a way of life. That's how I was. I didn't let it define who I was even though I had scoliosis. Scoliosis is when your spine is curved and kind of crooked. And how did doctors begin to treat you or what did they say when you went to doctor? I didn't know I had scoliosis on paper, medical paper. I had a car accident maybe 15 years ago with severe whiplash after having x-rays done, I was diagnosed with scoliosis. And how did you begin to receive your healing? I came last Sunday and came to the front and I knew I had scoliosis and I knew I had one leg longer than the other and I explained my problem to the minister with power of healing and I explained that my pain was worse after I had my epidural last year when I had my son. My pain just became horrible. I mean if I would stand for long periods of time it was just really bad pain. Going to bed was horrible, tossing and turning at night. Not comfortable at all.  How did you begin to feel? I was, I felt normal and then he told me to sit down and I was expecting my calf to feel weird because I knew my leg was going to grow. I was about a half an inch shorter than my right leg and he prayed for me and I started feeling it up here, my upper leg and it felt if it was weird. How did it feel? Can you kind of describe the feeling? It's undescribable but I can just, my muscle was moving inside and it was not a tingle. It was a movement, like growth. It was growth. And how did you begin to feel afterwards when he was done praying for you? He said later God's power is going to work throughout the day. So just be aware of that for the day and a half or two. It felt a little sore but not the bad kind of sore, the good kind of sore after you work out kind of sore. And it felt, it was weird when I left because I made myself normal. I didn't think I had a problem. I knew I had the problem but I didn't let it define who I was. So it was weird leaving being normal because I wasn't used to being normal because I was normal before. But now I was normal to the other normal people and so it's kind of complicated but when I got medically diagnosed 15 years ago because of that car accident, my chiropractor, he's now retired, he told me you're going to wear tennis shoes the rest of your life. You know, your right shoes, just put it on, left shoe, doctor's shoes, gel pad, stick it in there. You're going to be good.  So I would wear heels, I didn't let it define me like I said. I wear whatever I wanted and I worked through my half inch problem because it was only half an inch. I'm five foot three, half an inch wasn't a problem for me. So I continued life. How do you feel today? How has it been because it's been a week? I'm still in disbelief because like two times a day I'm like, okay, I sit down against the wall and I ask my husband or somebody there, can you measure me? Measure my legs please. And so, but I'm blessed, I'm happy and I'm just happy. You told me that you went home when you began to work on a leg to make it painful. What will happen? I'm still in the process of moving into our new house and if I would stand for long periods of time, especially after the epidural, I would feel pain on my lower back. So I would aggravate it and I was doing anything possible to kind of work against it to see if this was real because I couldn't believe it was happening. And nothing would, the only pain I would feel is me aggravating it because I would keep tapping it and I kept hitting it and nothing would happen. I had no pain and yeah, I would sit against the wall and check if one leg was longer than the other.  How is your back? It is good. And I still have the length. No, I don't. I don't have pain. Let's put our hands together for Jesus Christ. You told me that this was not your first supernatural healing that you have had in your life. One of them you had 15 years ago when you went to Mexico and you attended this crusade where there was this minister who had a healing ministry. Can you begin to happen? What happened to you there? Yeah. I was around 16 years old and the man of God said, hey, can everybody that has feelings in their teeth come up please? And whoa, I said, I have three, I'll go up. So he would pray individually kind of the same way this gentleman did the past Sunday and throughout that prayer, he mentioned platinum and gold belongs to God. In your body, if you have any artificial metal, that was going to turn into gold or the fillings. It wasn't a flamboyant gold. It was beautiful, it's a diluted gold, a subtle gold and my teeth, my three fillings turned to gold. Fast forward 10 years from then to five years ago, went to the dentist for my regular routine and he said, cosmetic purposes, do you want to, you know, I'm already giving you another filling, do you want me to take those out and you don't do them all right? I declined for those three fillings and he asked me where I got my fillings and I told him, if I told you, you wouldn't believe me. I declined the fillings and in that same crusade, my uncle had the same healing that I did this past Sunday, but I didn't know that I had scoliosis. So 15 years ago in that crusade, fast forward to six months, we had a car accident and that's when I was diagnosed with scoliosis. And so I felt like I missed my opportunity with that man of God to get that healing. And so comes Sunday, what is your advice now that you've received your supernatural healing? What do you want to tell people when it comes to healings? Well, first of all, I was sitting back over there with my kid because he's always crying, as you guys know, but I almost didn't come up because I thought, oh man, that's weird, you know, or I'm uncomfortable or I'm really not going to have that healing. So I'm like, you know what? I am going to have that healing, junior, here, hold the kid, I'll be right back. And so I came up and I had my healing and people that, it's a good thing to not let it define you, any sicknesses, any disabilities. It's a great thing to not let it define you. But I'm having a hard time accepting my healing, but that's because I was, I'm still at that point where like, is it normal, is it not, I'm coming back to normal, but I thought it was normal, but don't let it define who you are when you get your healing. So I'm healed and now I am normal. Amen. Amen. Let's put our hands together for Jesus Christ so you can go sit down.


Hey, it was good every one it is behavior here for another episode of just my opinion I really do appreciate you tuning in and today, you know, we're gonna be talking about this Avengers Infinity War box office results for the opening weekend I did a little video yesterday for the The estimated amount, but of course you got to wait some Monday for the actuals and also if you're looking at me right now, you notice that I am not in my Studio or my bedroom where I have everything set up. I am out of town right now I'll be back in the coming weekend. That's one reason why I shot the video yesterday So if the camera work is a little janky or the audio, I don't have all my equipment I'm using a camera that is in my laptop right now And I don't know I've never used that before and also to my right. I'm also recording on my phone just in case You know things don't work out I can have some type of backup or whatever. So and a couple of videos ago.  I was like, you know, I can trust my friends. They're like my brothers and nobody gonna break into my house And even if they did we got people there But anyway guys, we are here. Oh also at the end of this video. I'm gonna talk about this is a spoiler review No, this is box office. This is box office results for opening weekend for Avengers Infinity War I'm also gonna touch on Black Panther, but I'm also going to discuss spoilers for Infinity War as well They just may come out. So I'm just letting you know that if you have not seen Avengers Infinity War Please cut the video off and then subscribe go check out Avengers Infinity War come back And then we can party and dance in the comment section and all that good stuff And I got a little surprise for you guys at the end. It's not really surprised I guess but I'm just gonna do some little difference if it works if we like it. Hey, that's great If not, you know, hey, we just gonna keep it moving but the box office results for Avengers Infinity War is in yesterday It was estimated at two hundred and fifty million dollars. I told I was like, okay It's gonna make two hundred and sixty seven million opening if it meets everybody's expectations So it was like two five zero zero zero zero zero, of course, you know, it's estimated amount, right? And so then like what I was gonna do is I was like man when I get off because I'm a perfect work And in the north I was like man or north of Texas I was like, man, I'm not even gonna look during the middle of the day in the afternoon I'm just gonna turn the camera on and this is gonna surprise me But I was like I couldn't wait so I looked and it said 258 earlier and I was but it still said estimated I'm like, wait a minute. Why did it go up eight million dollars? But it's still saying estimated but now when I refresh my page and I'm setting everything up the official amount For a Marvel Studios Avengers Infinity War for box office opening weekend, baby is 257 million dollars 698 thousand 100 I messed it up two hundred and fifty seven million six hundred ninety eight thousand 183 Dollars that is what's up. So guys this breaks the record. It breaks the record in 2015 December 2015 Where Star Wars the Force Awakens, which was already a colossal amount that it broke It broke that a lot of people just saying no, it's impossible You know Star Wars is you know generational this and all generational that and we haven't had a movie in ten years Since the prequels and yada yada yada, but no it looks like Avengers Infinity War has taken that crown and I could not Be any happier So that's the domestic one right now. It's looking at 630 million worldwide And you know, that's cool too.  And it's opening and let's just say 70 territories or 70 countries around the world. Okay, that's fine So it has those 70 openings But then the next week another movie comes out and it's only opening in 65 territories It's opening weekend and then the next weekend after that another movie is opening in 80 territories You see our films are not released at the exact same time But or the exact amount of theaters at same time So if if movie a has a bigger opening you can say, well, okay You opened it more territories at one particular time because Avengers Infinity War that open that isn't open It hasn't opened up yet. That doesn't open in China until May the 11th You know, so just don't pay attention to that But we have the the weekend actuals. Let's just go ahead and run through the top team real quick So we got a vengeance infinity award 257 million dollars a quiet place is still doing crazy things bringing in another 11 million dollars that drop was only 47% it's still in 3500 theaters the budget for that was only 17 million right now It's at 235 million dollars worldwide 148 million dollars domestically so that just keeps on kicking butt and I you know, I couldn't be happier It's a great movie. I'll feel pretty comes in at 8 million 8.1 million and drop 49% and 3400 locations right now with an Amy Schumer the budget was 32 million dollars and it's only at 29 million dollars worldwide. So that is not looking too great I don't know how this movie is gonna turn out I don't know if this movie is gonna be opening up overseas But it then again, this is I feel pretty and this is mainly about Avengers Infinity War rampage Brought in another seven million dollars and they had a big drop 64% It opened two weeks before Avengers Infinity War right now is at 335 million worldwide The budget was three 120 so you know my rule of three at the very minimum Film needs to make at least three times the production budget not the entire budget because the product This is a production budget at 120 Does not include marketing so needs to make around was it a 360 million dollars worldwide to say that it had a respectable Profit a respectable return. So I think you may get there this film should have You know got at least 100 million dollars domestically, but it's only a 78 million dollars But you know, hey, we're gonna keep it moving now. What has moved up? I think it last week It was number eight in the box office, but Black Panther Is at number five like this is crazy. It came out with February 16th. I believe So that is over two months ago guys and it is still not in the top ten But it is still in the top five. This is a surprise to me. I knew that it was still gonna be in theaters I knew it was gonna be in top ten. That's pretty much a given But it brought in another four million dollars now. There is this cat that is in my comment section I don't know your name. I can't remember it off the top of my head I may try to look at it right now, but you was debating me in my comment section about two weeks ago and I know I didn't do a Box office thing last week. I didn't you know really it just I wasn't excited about it You was a producer in a comment section. No, bro, you got it all wrong What makes you think that Black Panther is gonna go from five million to two million? It hasn't dropped this much and blah blah. I just want to say sir. You was right. Okay. You was right I was wrong. I wasn't pretending like I was some guru up here behind the camera behind the mic or anything like that But I was surprised It did it only drop what? I lost my spot. It only dropped another Shit, wait a minute. That can't be right four percent. Wait a minute. Let me let me go here real quick weekend for Black Panther, so Yeah, so the April 13th through April 15th Black Panther had 5.7 million And so it dropped 14% to 5.7 to 4.9 last week and so no this is right Black Panther Only dropped another 4% it made 4.9 million dollars last weekend and this weekend it made 4.7 That's what's up. That's what's up right there. So again, sir. I forgot your name I don't remember you kind of had a little attitude, but I'm not well I don't know if you had an attitude. Maybe that's just the way I took it But you was right, man You know Black Panther is still making hella book who money and we're gonna talk more about Black Panther towards the end Or quote towards the middle of this video. We're gonna keep on going super troopers I really don't cry while thought of that film 3.7 choose a dare 3.2 million blockers at number eight is 2.9 ready player one is at 2.5 and traffic did 1.6 coming in at number 10 Damn, I don't know what the budget was for that, but it only made six million dollars. I imagine that it was pretty cheap Let me just look at ready player one real quick by Steven Spielberg. Okay, so 545 million dollars worldwide. That's pretty good. That's that's really good I mean, it's not like, you know, like freaking amazing like oh my gosh But you know, it's doing much well bet the much well much better overseas Than it is doing here in the United States of the Americas 130 domestically 414 Worldwide me ready player one Production budget, I'm just curious Okay, this is a good source right here, let me scroll down production budget was we have 175 million so very expensive film rightfully so 175 times 3 I could do that. Why is not not working 175 times 3 525 so my rule of 3 525 and said 445. So hey, you know, I'm saying that's what's up right there So, let me just read this real quick audiences assemble worldwide is Disney and Marvel's vengeance and finish Well, both the domestic open the weekend box office worker and worldwide.  Wait a minute. Let me read that again because that doesn't make sense Okay And it's wait the majority of films on the weekend box office chart failed dramatically Okay, yeah, that makes sense though fellow Marvel Universe released Black Panther improved this position from eighth place last weekend And that just goes to show a point that I'm about to make and talk about spoilers Infinity War opening weekend beats the previous record of 247.9 million set by Star Wars before force awakens by just over two million dollars But it's also worth mentioning is Disney under estimated Black Panther's 202 million opening by nearly 10 million on Sunday That is true because Black Panther's four-day weekend was 242 The three-day weekend was 202, but the estimated amount was like 191 192 or whatever, you know But that's still what's up. The studio also underestimated Avengers upon performance by 7 million and underestimated Avengers Age of Ultron by 3.6 Blah blah blah blah blah blah. That does not matter to me Now additional domestic records note include the largest Saturday Gross largest single Sunday gross, you know, I don't wait a minute an internationally Internationally Infinity War delivered a monstrous $380 million 72% of the international market. The debut is the second largest of fate of the fury It had a cinema score, of course highlights for Infinity Wars International all-time 42 million in South Korea 39.2 million in Mexico. I'm not going to read all that because I'm not saying that it's not important, but you know at the same time, let me just analyze this myself This was from Brad Brevard. I'll do read his post for box office mojo But I'm finna I'm finna do this myself real quick. So that's what's up right there. Avengers Infinity War Is now I tried to look up the production budget for Infinity War and I can't find it If anybody can provide that information in the comment section, I would appreciate it You know how if you see my past videos You know, I always like to do the open the showdowns that are on box office mojo Showdowns are going to be between Star Wars the Force Awakens Jurassic World the Avengers Star Wars the last Jedi Black Panther and now Avengers Infinity War So the reason why is these this is the opening weekend showdown. These are the best the top six opening Weekends of all time. These are possibly also the top biggest blockbusters of all time, too Excuse me besides Titanic and Avatar so Yeah, so it has opening weekend also in Avengers Infinity War has the most theaters open opposed all these other ones at 4474 Now some people think that well it made more money because it was in more theaters not necessarily That just means that it's easier for you to go see it. Okay, instead of driving Five minutes down the road you may know instead of driving two minutes down the road to go to your local theater You may have to drive five minutes down the road and what I mean by that is like like my apartment in Dallas I have a movie theater literally. I'm not exaggerating guys. It's literally right next door to me, right? So I it's like a 30-second walk not a drive a 30-second walk to the theater Down the street about a block is another theater right there. So What that means is is where When a film opens and more theaters or less theaters that and if it's a big opening like Avengers Infinity War Those two theaters that are in one block between each other It may be both at those locations But in some cases it may only be at this location B or this location a or something like that So I can still get to either theater, you know So I just you know because sometime people just I see in common six and they were well Of course it made more it had more that does that's not necessarily the truth right there now when we break When we do the opening weekend showdown We're gonna do this by the day now Black Panther on Thursday night had a 25 million dollar opening Which is great black Panther had a 39 me not no black Panther had a 25 million dollar Thursday night preview Avengers Infinity War had a 39 million dollar Thursday night preview, which is great That was the most out of any Superhero comic book films of all time is force Thursday night previews now the force awakens had like 55 57 million something like that on Thursday and then like one of the Harry Potter movies So now if you don't know the Thursday's numbers are included in Friday, okay? So Friday the force awakens had one hundred and nineteen million dollars the Avengers Infinity War had 106 and so out of Jurassic World the Avengers in 2012 the last jot on black Panther none of those Fridays It was over a hundred million But the force awakens 119 Avengers Infinity War 106 Saturday comes around the force awakens has 68 million dollars Black Panther has 82 million dollars. So I believe that is the highest Saturday of all time. I could be wrong It's probably what I kept probably that's probably that's why I was reading this thing I was wondering why I was reading this thing and also on Sunday, which is this was an actual number is $69 million now What it is far too early to tell right, but so the force awakens had an opening of 247 million dollars, right and Me personally, I enjoy infinity war more than the force awakens much more than the last Jedi The last the force awakens ended up making like what nine hundred and thirty six million dollars domestically Yeah, nine hundred and thirty six million dollars domestically could Avengers Infinity War make them less domestically. It's possible But I don't know People are going. I mean, I don't I hear more people talking about going to go see Avengers Infinity War Twice more than once than I did the force awakens. But again, that was two and a half years ago I really don't remember but man it could I mean it's it's it's tracking it Beated on Saturday and Sunday. So the word of mouth in my opinion is better than it was on Friday So, you know, I can't go any further on this showdown because it just opened this weekend You know weekend here. Yeah at one and you know, I can't do the week either So, let me see if there's anything else that I want to talk about real quick on the showdown Other than out of the six biggest openings of all time This was two hours and 36 minutes. So, you know, Alan Horn the the head the the head guy over film at Disney a Bob Iger the CEO and all the other executives Okay, just because the movie is long does not make me and people are not gonna go see it And I will touch on that in just a second. So let me go ahead and close this window out right here Let me I just feel like there's something important right here that I'm missing as far as Infinity War having the best Saturday of all time. I mean, I want to quote that correctly Looking ahead it received the ace in the school audience for a 58. What is what is affinity war right now on? Rotten tomatoes. I just want to see because of course that has to do with money too I mean if if something is doing gangbusters, okay, 84% On on rotten tomatoes average rating was 7.5 out of 10 Come on, I need to get this working right out of man 279 reviews 235 fresh rotten tomatoes 44 now guys help me out with this on Basas box office So I do reviews on YouTube of course and I also do them on my website But I have not written reviews since Black Panther because honestly, nobody reads them Not know it's probably my fault. Maybe they're not good enough. I don't know and I I applied to rotten tomatoes September of 2017 because I wanted to Contribute to the tomato meter. They didn't reply back to like end of December beginning of no beginning of January And it was like basically not big enough You know right for somebody else you have a lot, you know, anyway Since I brought a rotten tomatoes help me help me I go bookmark my website I go like my Facebook page as a link to all that description box. It'll really help me out But let me let me see let me go back here real quick, too Is I'm trying to find out if infinity war is the largest Saturday of all time. Actually, I can just go to all time real quick I'm okay all time. They got all time open the weekend. I don't think I have no all-time Saturday Maybe they do I'm just scrolling guys. Thank you for your patience. Sorry that this is not completely okay all time Yeah All time for Saturday So Star Wars the Force Awakens has the record for all time Friday The vengeance infinity war has the record all time Saturday and all time Sunday right now Black Panther has the all-time record for Monday now black panther still may hold on to that because that was president's day weekend So people was off work. Yeah, I'm tripping this thing this thing right here.  So that's cool in the game right there Let's see here. Let's see. I don't want to talk about next real quick Alright Let's let's let's close this out right here And let me close this out right here. Now. Let me talk about my baby black panther real quick You know, I'm saying they move from number eight to number five on the drop But that's I'm surprised right? Okay. So right now.  Okay, so domestic right now black panther is a 688 million dollars 688 364 thousand nine hundred seventeen dollars right just a little under twelve million dollars away from Met hitting seven hundred million dollars. I just wanted to do this so bad I don't think it was but looking at these numbers now and it on the drop in four percent.  It might do that like right around me. It may if it drops I mean, yeah, it may do that Let me look at this real quick Actually Okay, I know I should have I shouldn't have closed down the showdown thing real quick so When my showdown when I look at the weekend, I really can't go off this because black panther is It has a chance. I don't know. It's gonna.  It ain't going to black people. Yeah I know that but I you know, I money don't go to our community. No way. We only own like one point Since the brain I think at the end of the Civil War black people in this country Like 1.5% of the nations know one half of a half percent not even a 4% I think that's the same now. It may be a jump up to like 2.4 or something like that. So I'll make another video about that.  Oh, I'm sorry. Here we go. Oh, I'm sorry guys. My my computer is not acting The way it should be. Okay. So when I look at all 19 films and the Marvel Cinematic Universe The Avengers Infinity War is still beating black panther domestically when you ingest for inflation That panther's a 688 and Marvel's the Avengers is 704 You know, but and it's right now. Yeah, number three It's the third highest of all time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and something that I just want to look at real quick guys If you look at the all-time Worldwide I'm also gonna look at it just for inflation for the message All-time worldwide black panther has moved from number 10 to number Nine number nine that it just passed all wars the last Jedi the last Jedi had one billion Three hundred thirty two million right now black panther has one billion three hundred and thirty three million So that's what's up right there Number eight spot comes in at one billion three hundred and forty one million black panther is going to be that Okay Worldwide I feel It comes out on blu-ray. I think May 18th. It comes out on digital May 11th Of course, I'm gonna be getting a copy. Man, I can't wait I cannot wait to look at them special features the deleted scenes them feature is that commentary of my gosh Whoo, I cannot wait Anyway, so I think black panther is gonna end up being number eight, right and then For now and then a vengeance affinity war is gonna come and it's gonna knock black panther to number nine and then when it Fingers affinity Avengers 4 comes out. That's gonna knock it down again to about number 10 So at the time so may of 2019 or the end of the run I am unless I don't think the Solo unless it's the best Star Wars movie of all time. I don't think the solo is gonna catch it And I don't even know so let's gonna make a billion dollars It might it looks good. I wouldn't care about it at first, but So at the end of Avengers 4 a vanity run in the top 10, we're gonna have One more was the Avengers of age of Ultron black panther And then the two Avengers film five of those films are going five Films in the top ten of all time worldwide are gonna be MCU films Two of those are gonna be Star Wars films of Disney's winning, you know, still not being Avatar and Titanic and things like that So that's what's up. And lastly what I want to look at is the Is the domestic for black panther Injusted for inflation Okay, and right now. Oh, it is at number 30 right there at top 30 is $688 million Marvel's The Avengers is at number 29 at 704 Titanic is still up there at Number five man. I mean 1997 1.2 it would if movie tickets in 1997 were the same price that they are today Titanic would have made 1.2 billion dollars domestically. That's just freaking the same right there And so, yeah, I'm so super duper excited that Avengers Infinity War opened up now I mean broke the record. That's what's up now. I will also say that I want to do this now make a separate video I'm just gonna touch on it real quick briefly This movie while I loved Avengers Infinity War. It still should have been longer. Oh Excuse me. I do know that the executives and stuff They look in it. I mean, of course, they want to make money does this is a business But my philosophy on this is if making money is always your number one goal Even if it is a business and you try to make a problem if that is your number one goal is to make money Yes, you're gonna make money But if your number one goal is to make a good product You will make even more money than you initially would you know even so The reason why I say that is is they got these executives and these big wigs in these studios They're looking at like, you know, you know, it's gonna turn people off if the movie is too long People are not gonna want to see it. Also, if it's too long, you can't you can't have so many showings playing per day That is true in my opinion to an extent, but More people would have saw this film if it was even better than what it is I mean the Avengers Infinity was a great film But one of the main complaints about it even while everybody is university praise and everybody loves it Is they felt that it was too much going on and that the film was rushed. I do agree I don't know. I don't feel that it was just too much going on, but I do feel that it was rushed We should have got more Captain America dialogue like rallying the troops We also should have got more black Panther to Chalice have a bozeman dialogue rallying the troops like and remember I said this for spoilers so when Captain America Black Widow Falcon Vision and Scarlet Witch show up at the Avengers facility with Rody war machine and General Thunderbolt Ross was there in the hologram And then Bruce came out that was fine There should have been much more dialogue and those scenes right there to connect all the dots And then when they got to what kind that thing was just rushed all the way through which makes no sense to me And somebody in my comments that I'm gonna So What I don't understand is Black Panther came out right?  Everybody knew it was gonna be successful, but nobody knew it was gonna be dick successful, right? so so since it was so successful and You know during the first few weeks of Black Panther It just seemed like a lightbulb should have went up like damn everybody knew Black Panther was gonna be good But we know it's gonna be a this big of a hit Majority of the film does take place in Wakanda in affinity war the film this the scenes that we already did shoot Let's go ahead and make sure that that stays in the movie and off into the finish. Hey, uh, we're my phone and I'll go I can't always right here. We're gonna use the remote as a phone. Hey Russo brothers Joe and Anthony, uh, I know y'all I know we was trying to cut down on time, but this Black Panther's a hit Let's make sure we put as much Black Panther Wakanda in Avengers Infinity War So we can just make more money. Okay, you know, just you know Make sure you know, you can do it Just make sure that the child is in there and Baku or Korye Shuri Put them in the movie because people are going to go see this 10 11,000 times. Okay. We good. All right, you know See you in May or see you in April 27th. I don't understand that now something in my comments section was like well Brandon They were not able to do that they're not able to edit that fast Yes, they are what you don't know it see what it would be there. I would agree with you if you were saying They had to go do more research. No, no, no, no, I'm not talking about that. I know for a damn fact I don't know for a fact I'm for damn sure that there was a ton of Wakanda stuff on the cutting room floor that we did not get to see in this theatrical Release with Avengers Infinity War and when they are editing these films guys Sometimes they come the editing comes down to the last minute not every movie But that's why I like to listen to commentary so much and I like the special features because you learn so much behind the scenes Like for example when you saw Black Panther at the very beginning of the movie where they had the the CGI story where the In the Jaka Kill Margaret was like father. Tell me a story or tell me about home. Y'all know that was killing my kill marker talking to his father and jubu And then they did the graphics were a long time ago The vibranium thing came down and crass and you know, it told you a story Sometimes things like that or put together literally 24 hours before the deadline before they have to send the film off To the studio there's some time they're editing these things at the last minute So it just doesn't make sense for me And when I was watching one of the interviews a feature is with Joe and Anthony Russo the Russo brothers They won a soldier Civil War and Avengers Infinity War.  I mean, thank you for the product you gave me but that just lets me know I know it wasn't taking Kevin Feige and it wasn't our problem either because Kevin Feige don't have to report to him anymore. This was either Alan Horn, Bob I got some of these executives like I Know you want to do your movie, but can we can we cut some things down, please? Can we make a two hours to 30 to 30 to 36 or whatever?  They will go see that hole. They will I will everybody will they don't care And you have if you don't have any proof of that I can understand but you have proof you have Titanic Titanic was over three hours, and it's one of the biggest movies of all time Nobody yeah, it was three hours, but the move was freakin badass And you need to go see it and it's not like it was a surprise everybody knew that the ship sank You know I'm saying I'm just so passionate or whatever about this Same thing with Avatar Avatar's thing was longer than the vids of the finish war $2.7 billion if the movie is amazing People go see all Marvel films don't need to be two hours and 30 minutes long I get that but when you have a thousand billion characters in the film and you doing this combination thing That's just something that you have to consider Okay, because instead of it being an 84 right now right tomatoes It could be a 94 instead of making two hundred and fifty seven million dollars open the weekend You could have made two hundred and sixty nine million dollars open the weekend. I saw a Thursday and Saturday I would have saw it again Friday or Sunday, but I had to prepare for my trip and also all IMAX screens was sold down. I'm like, you know anyway But I think y'all give my point how long has this video been going on Hold on is this thing not recording oh shoot No, okay, I'm recording Man My bad, y'all. Okay, so what I want to do real quick guys is I just decided to do this today Also guys right now. I'm a 4871 subscribers. I'm almost at 5,000 You know, please subscribe to my channel. Let me get to 5,000. I really appreciate it But what I want to do right now is I'm on my own YouTube page I'm looking at my vengeance affinity war video that I uploaded yesterday and I just want to go through and read some comments Because I just think that's kind of fun. I just want to respond to you guys this way If I don't reach a comment don't take offense You know, I'm you know, I'm trying to make yeah, yeah, don't take offense if I don't read your comment You're easily my favorite. Okay. I'm fluffing on myself. Thank you very much Brandon the East Arche writes Brandon my king T'Challa Black Panther is gone. Yo, I can't I can't Emoji crying face. I feel you my brother, but he is coming back Omo Shun nine four six or two writes. I had the way a hawk acted It was just not him only person I fell sorry for was spiderman because he technically still a child And he really didn't want to die his scene was sad. I agree with you whole heartedly on The spider-man thing that was sad I do watch John Campia's podcast and things like that He was saying that he was disappointed in Tony because Tony's like dude, this is a child. You having him fighting the war and things like that That's not how I played in the film. So, you know, I like how they did that. I did not I do disagree with you I don't hate how the Hulk acted.   I mean he came through just wrecking shop I loved it I really feel like they're gonna be doing that for the Incredible Hulk or Hulk and Avengers 4 if they don't do it I'm gonna be angry like oh my gosh, but you know, like I really feel like I really just want to see a Hulk come through there and just This man's the hell out of everything, you know, just like Like world breaker hope to work after he beats the bad guys He turns on the Avengers because he does not have control over it.  We will see what the final numbers is Monday morning I think what a mouth really help infinity war I told every person know to go see it this weekend to avoid spoilers plus many big people are gonna see it multiple times Keep up the great work. I've been busy. I haven't seen review yet, but I'll check it out. Well, yeah, uh, you know I'm not in my background now that background if you're talking about it after taking the video That's just cuz it was a comic book movie. I'm gonna switch it back to my other stuff Yeah, okay, I was man AP rice I was mad at Thor for not getting Thanos before he took out a stone from vision Yeah, you know, you could look but you know He was taking down ships and all that stuff right the last shot before so, you know, I'm not too upset about that but with Thanos now but Okay, she responds to the comment, but with that I was not happy when time anyway No, no matter what door came after him Once he had the time stone.  He could have did this they could have stopped him from closing this foot His fist. I mean like the way the time stone works is it only takes time back from like a certain vicinity unless you have the power stone to Enhanced it which he did but if Thanos doesn't know to do that and then that's on him So somebody else could have sniped him from along, you know from far back or something to stop him from using the time stone You know, I don't know Even though Thanos told him chopper though. Okay. Let's see. What's my Yeah, what's my baby B-15 when Spider-Man was telling Tony. He didn't want to go. I shared a few thug tears All right, hey, Spider-Man. See you next year in the next movie. I feel you man What happened deaf rocker says what happened to one was accent very good point. Nobody knows that is a mist mystery Elaine P writes why was Thor asking Thanos? What did you do?   It would have been dope if Silver Surfer was introduced in the post-credits scene. I Disagree with you, sir. I mean, it would have been fine, but it would have been completely unnecessary and I Mean they did that with Captain Marvel, but we knew her move was coming You know, I'm saying so maybe if it was a Silver Surfer movie instead, you know, that would that would have suffice. That would suffice, but Yeah Deaf rocker also writes the trailer scene with the group with Hulk running and Wakanda wasn't in the movie I know that pissing me off the false advertising Nor nor King or New York King this movie left me feeling mad and King T'Challa for opening up Wakanda to the damn world We were good before that L a world wide to Chala why I Feel you on that I do for a number of reasons that I'm not gonna talk about in this video because I would be talking for about three hours But We're reading between the lines. I do kind of feel you there That's another reason why we needed more dialogue with Wakanda in this movie Because early we was hearing the Russo Brothers talking about like how an Featured in interviews with a Coyote talking about yeah, you know, she's a traditionalist She doesn't believe in opening up the borders But all we got is the Olympics in that Star Wars Starbucks joke boo Starbucks, you know why Anyway That's just why I feel that there should have been more dialogue because I wanted to see a scene with a Coyote Say it's a Chala man. Like it's not our fight and he's like no it is our fight It's the second the universe and I just wish we I just wish we would have had that Official final round work review sir one of the most underrated movie critics on YouTube I hope you get more subscribers and popularity so you can go get invited some more premiers. Thank you I do appreciate that Okay, Christina L you are I think you are one of the main reasons why I wanted to do this Stalard Christina L right Stalard wasn't being a dumbass. Did you watch volume to he flipped out when his dad revealed? He killed his mom if someone killed my loved one and was right in front of me I go berserk if quiz set around then they get the gauntlet and then the movie ends on a happy note and people would be If quiz set around then they get the gauntlet and the movie ends on a happy note and people will complain It was too safe. Dr. Strange could have around time, but he didn't it's part of the plan. No, um, I Dis with all due respect. I disagree with you Christina L.  Yeah, he went berserk But he had every right to it was just a one-on-one fight right there in this film The little the not the world not the galaxy because he's a garden to the galaxy the literal universe was at stake and the only way you can beat this person that is trying to erase half the universe is to get the Gauntlet off of his hand.  So what have you got everything right there? Is that gonna took the gun? He could repeat a quail.   Then I'm a viscer at you. That's just That's just ridiculous that I'm sorry.  He let his emotions get in control of him That was just that was just crazy and as far as Dr. Strange knowing the outcome or whatever that was after the fact that we found that out after he gathered Tom's tone to Tony That to me had nothing to do. Yeah, I'm gonna let Peter Quill be a dumbass and mess up our plan right now No, no, I just don't I don't see it like that Who is this Now somebody responds to that come at biggest Asthole ever STS that's his name Just my opinion reason though the OP is correct. Dr. Strange knew he had to end that way It did in order for them to win. That's why he gave Thanos the stone I understand that this version is one of the outcomes where they win before he watched every possible outcome He told me he would let him and Spider-Man died to protect after his vision if that's the case I disagree but if that's the case, then that just goes to bad writing Because they literally almost had the glove all they had to do is get it glove off and put it on then they they win They could they could have destroyed Thanos. They could have sent them over here. They could have turned them in the clay, you know, all that Musical fury freak 1991 override that is right, but I like the way Stollard reacted after Thanos got the time stone He didn't seem to know what the endgame was. I agree I'm right only Dr. Strange knew the turmoil the turnout was going to be given a time stone to Thanos So based off. Yeah, I agree with all that.  Yeah. Yeah, he risked the universe Fangled apart fangled apart Fox Mantis turned into dust to Tony and number nebula was only two left on time I must have said something wrong, but yes, that is correct Marion Solomon writes will love to listen but can't deal with all the snorting stiffening and smacking. I'm sorry I don't know what was wrong with me yesterday or the day before Dr. Strange seems only saying today Okay It's a good point right here CEO Moldale 82 the only thing that had me thinking was the infinity stones are so powerful I didn't understand why Dr. Strange and vision has so much trouble beating the children of Thanos without a stone I mean Dr. Strange was going toe-to-toe with Thanos for a minute and he had four stones But couldn't be Ebony Maul who had no stone. What do you think? That's a very good question Now as far as Let me read it. I Don't understand why okay vision had a problem fighting Corvus Glaive Because before the fight started off He just got stabbed in the chest or in the back do the chest and that was you know So that stopped him from phasing right there and he tried to shoot Corvus Glaive with the the mind stone But he was able to deflect it with his glaive or whatever his his sight or whatever was so he was an important foe As far as Thanos and having let me so many trouble with the children of Thanos see to me Dr. Strange did not have trouble fighting. Well, I guess he did. I mean he did get taken away They say that Well, Dr. Strange had the time stone So he didn't if you saw the Dr. Strange movie dr. Strange and doesn't really like going Playing with time unless it's absolutely necessary because you're breaking the natural order of law, which is what? Shit would tell edgier forest character said in that movie But this fight between Dr. Strange and Ebony Maul was pretty even but Ebony Maul is just so damn powerful To my understanding. I don't know much about him, but my little research He's this he's a his telekinesis power.  You can control everything as far as You know, I mean Dr. Strange was going toe to toe with Thanos and he had four stones. Well true Thanos like I said It's one of those things to me and this could be bad writing I could be making excuses if you don't even if you have great power that does not mean that you know how to use it You know I'm saying and that was just one of the cases You know for me and this movie with Dr. Strange Thanos because I was thinking about that too and when I was okay Thanos is this part for the ending here and there, you know good points But yeah, Dr. Strange did lose the fight to Ebony Maul in the streets. I don't think he's just struggled I think it was a good fight, but very very good question. How long we've been going on? Okay, 48 minutes guys I don't want this video to be that long and reading questions like this is pretty fun. I'm not man What I might do is I may go through it because the reason why it's taking so long is because I didn't read all these And I don't want to be going through reading it to myself to make sure it's a good question or something I didn't already answer and then going back and you know, that's just gonna take too long So I may go I may just find questions and copy and paste them into a list and just randomly You know make videos throughout the week. Let's say. Hey, I got some youtube questions You know here. I'm going to answer them. These are the best 10 the best 20 whatever Uh, but guys That is just my opinion of avengers infinity war black panther And I'm gonna say black panther infinity war. This is just my opinion of avengers infinity war spoilers Avenger infinity war box office black panther box office me wanting an extended cut of the movie and all that good stuff You know usually some graphics and things are gonna pop up, but I'm not in my normal space But guys, I just really want to thank you guys for tuning in to hear all my thoughts just my opinion on everything I really do appreciate it. Um, do you agree with me? Do you disagree with me? Uh, you know, what do you think about all these numbers or what I have to say? Let me know down in the comment section below.

First of all, I want to thank the organizers for having me here today. And as we shall be talking about new technologies, my first slide features Henry Braille, who the man who spent 700 days recording images in the caves. And in this photo, he is actually shown recording a Portuguese rock art site in the 1930s, the site to which we shall return in the very end of this presentation. Well, the study of post-glacial arts in northwest corner of Liberia is particularly interesting, for it is one of the few regions where it has been attested that two major European prehistoric art traditions actually come together. And they are partially contemporary in the Neolithic. And they are Atlantic art that spans across Atlantic Europe from northwest Liberia to the British Isles, and schematic art, paintings that occur along the Mediterranean biogeographical region up to the northeastern Portugal and the Angolithia. So Atlantic art is materialized as carvings on open-air outcrops. The repertoire of motifs include cup marks, cappern rings, curvilinear motifs, and wandering lines, organized in both simple and complex arrangements. It is placed here in northwest Liberia in the typical granite landscape of the planted facade, scattering across hillsides, spurs, platforms, and rocky hills. And it is readily accessible and allow physical movement around the rocks. In contrast, schematic art sites are mainly distributed along the bottom of river valleys or decorating quartzite crests on mountain tops in the more arid and dry environment of the Mediterranean. Schematic art painting is typically painted, and it's characterized by the representation of the human figure and geometric rectilinear motifs. And it is mostly found in rock shelters. These rock shelters are usually confined in closed, intimate spaces. And with few exceptions, they are not suitable for large gatherings. We have been stressing the idea that both traditions converge along the line that marks the transition between the Atlantic and Mediterranean biogeographical regions of Europe and asking whether it could be the case that the establishment of idol tradition in such different environments means that they were adopted by two different social, cultural backgrounds, corresponding to two different ways of living in northwest Liberia in the Neolithic. But if we bring in other prominent art settings from the same period in the same area, we find that megalithic art also presents stylistic contrast between the coast and the interland, matching to a large extent the geographical distribution and imagery of schematic art and Atlantic art towards the west, where we find it is mostly composed by abstract and curvilinear designs with some motifs recalling Atlantic art, like wavy lines, cup and rings, single circles, as it's shown on the left, whereas towards the interland on the right, the imagery found in passage grave art is clearly inspired in schematic art style. In recent decades, I've been looking at the spatial, temporal, and conceptual relationships between these various styles and traditions. So in this paper, we shall discuss how new technologies of recording relate to theorizing rock art, as the former have been primarily thought as a means of communication, documentation, preservation, and public dissemination. That is, at heart of this session, is reflective thought. Our challenge should be to think theoretically about methods and tackle two main questions. How do new technologies actually contribute to the production of archeological knowledge? And how may they help in the process of thinking and interpreting rock art? And in order to do so, I shall bring a number of case studies on the various rock art styles and traditions found in northern Portugal. And starting off with Atlantic art. From the late 1990s, our research attempted to go beyond the traditional imagery focus approach that characterized Iberian rock art research, setting an agenda that aimed to look at rock art from the landscape to the rock face and vice versa. One of the issues we set off to analyze were the characteristics of the place selected for carving. And how the way carvings were placed on rocks, condition the bodily movement and sensorial experience leading the observer to unveil further connections. For instance, at Forno dos Moros, we found that the kind of mimetic relationship between the shape of the rock and that of the mountain where he sits. With the two river valleys apparently portrayed by the two depressions shaped by running water on each side of the outcrop. Yet at the time, none of the conventional recording techniques was entirely satisfactory to show this. As the results of recording by direct tracing were the conventionally flat black and white shapeless images as Marta also showed. However, field observations show that at the largest scale Atlantic art often mimicrys landforms in the wider landscape. Whereas at the smaller scale, a dialogue between the carvings and the natural backdrop is frequently established. Our research at Montefaro showed how the molding of granite rocks assumes at times a highly sculptural effect. And there are also a large number of motifs intentionally carved on bands adhering to circle lamps or simply outlining natural convex surfaces on the rock. This use of digital recording techniques allow us to better illustrate the idea that Atlantic art materializes a particular vision of the cosmos through outward dialogues as it engages with the elements, landforms and with the natural features of the outcrop where he sits. But above all, allow us to better illustrate that the work of art should be considered as the whole, I mean, as a sum of rock and imagery. Turning now to, turning now to the schematic art tradition, we shall see how the much widely disseminated plug-in, this stretch written by John Harmon to imagine has been fundamental to accurately record the paintings at the site of Vlad Pescabreras. The majority of painted rock shelters exhibit a small number of figures, yet this apparently scarcely decorated panel was actually found to contain 190 individual motifs, some of which are very faint and only show up by photographic enhancement. It also show pardon, it also allowed us to show the evidence for succeeding phases of imagery production with different individualized sectors, sectors in which motifs were painting with different styles at different scales and multiple colors, ranging from red to orange and purple, but also the presence of different techniques of execution like fingerprint, brush painting, painting applied with a spatula, and also these rather unique motifs in orange obtained by scrapping a cryon on the surface, which makes this a rather unique site in the context of Iberian schematic art. But to show further how new technologies have been fundamental to unveil aspects of the biography of prehistoric art sites, I bring the case of the decoration of taco one, a chamber tube provisionally dated to the fifth millennium BC. It is located in northwest coast of Portugal and shares these geographical settings with Atlantic art and also shares the character of the most prominent motifs packed on one of the slabs, the set of concentric arcs, which actually was the only one recorded in the original publication of 1992. Recently, a new recording by Photogrammetry showed a number of shallower and finely packed images across the chamber, some of which seem to be unfinished motifs and they are not meant to be as visible as the main composition. In fact, in Iberian megalithic art, these shallow and unfinished motifs are often found in monuments that are both painted and carved and in which the carvings are accessory to an old pervading painting decoration. In the case of taco, as the monument has been exposed to the elements, paintings could not be preserved, but the presence of these motifs suggests that the chamber might have been painted at some stage of the sequence of use and reuse. Interestingly, in the last days of the excavation, this was three years ago, one particular finding brought additional arguments to support this idea. And this is this grinding stone, which was also recorded by, with this stretch or enhanced. This is a grinding stone with abundant remains of red ochre from the excavation of the mound, most probably used to prepare pigments. So in all, the fact that to achieve an unambiguous record was a long-awaited goal for researchers. However, because digital recording techniques generate non-interpretive images, it is important to stress that their success in archeological practice depends above all of the questions asked by the archeologists. It is true that new technologies eliminate subjectivity in the execution of site recordings, but subjectivity rests where it should be in the subject who interprets. Thus, to illustrate this last point, I'd like to leave you with the first published record of an European rock art site. It shows the arrangement of prehistoric paintings inscribed in a frame of baroque style with a Bacolic landscape scenery in the background as interpreted by the 18th century artist, De Brie. And this is also to remind us that despite the technological evolution, one of the most powerful means of translating and interpreting ancient art is still perhaps the language of art itself. Thank you.


I was really in love with my ex and we had great sex but now she's married to someone else and I am also engaged to some other girl but she's not as pretty as my ex, she's a little bit dark and her figure is not that good either and the problem is I am not that much interested in her in bed. We tried a couple of times but my penis is not giving me the same response that I used to get with my ex-girlfriend. I am worried, can you please suggest some tips for a better relationship? Now before everyone starts jumping up and down I want to say that this is a really valid question because a lot of people feel like this but no one wants to talk about it because you get judged for it and it is this silence that ruins life. So I am really happy that someone had the courage to ask this question because now we can discuss it openly. So let me start by saying that yes it's always possible to change the way that the brain thinks, you just have to learn how to give it the right instructions and here are three really simple tips for you to be able to change your sexual chemistry with your new partner. Number one, pick something that you do like about the person. It could be anything, something physical, it could be how they kiss, it could also just be the sound that they make when they are excited.  Number two and this is very important, consciously block the comparison.  So the moment that thought comes into your head, I want you to consciously block it. And finally number three, the most important one of all, introduce some fantasies or role play into the sex, get into character, get costumes, really get kinky because this distracts your attention from what you think you don't like and it helps you to focus on a whole new kind of excitement and pleasure instead. It really helps.
