Template Name: They Called Me a Madman (Thanos)
Origin: This iconic frame is from the 2018 Marvel film Avengers: Infinity War. In the scene, Thanos (Josh Brolin) is on his home planet, Titan, showing Doctor Strange a projection of how beautiful and thriving it once was before overpopulation led to its ruin. He utters the line, "They called me a madman," referring to when he suggested a "solution" that the people of Titan rejected. In meme culture, it is the definitive visual for vindication after being doubted, proving an unpopular opinion right, or succeeding with a plan that others thought was insane.
