DIRECTOR'S CUT: Villain Therapy: THANOS (Patreon)

How do villains justify their motives? How does parenting affect your mission in life?

Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are tackling the villainy of Thanos from the MCU. While many people therapize Thanos himself, as a family therapist Jonathan focuses on the relationship Thanos has with his daughters, especially Gamora. Jonathan explains the purpose parenting serves in Thanos’s mission, and they both discuss his parenting philosophy. Alan describes the process of creating a completely CG character and why Thanos works so well.
