This guy has completely hit the nail on the head. These big Hollywood companies spending dumb money to bring back A list actors for iconic roles when they could easily bring in some new and upcoming hungry actors who actually care about the roles. This trend is repeatedly being shown all over Hollywood and it needs to stop.

But they don't know what created A-list actors in the first place. They started out small, until they had their breakout hit, but instead of just playing that role over and over again, they were cast in roles that challenged them to actually act, and for the most part, it paid off. Nowadays, "big" actors get one breakout role, and every role they're cast in afterwards is subservient to that role. Examples include Chris Pratt, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and now Pedro Pascal. Like, when was the last time they played a character that wasn't a wisecracking loser, or a parent/guardian of a special child or a beefed up hot dog who's too cool for school?

I don't think directors are the ones forcing the characters to take off their mask... Darth vader was to iconic to make directors do that... Before I thought they were doing it because they don't know how to make a character act real without showing their expressions but the more i think about it, the more a mask would be gold for any director to slap on their actor's face for easy edits... I think it's the actors putting this in their contract for fear that they might have a killer acting expression in a scene and no one gets to see it because of the mask... Plus they might end up creating a well love character but no one gets to see them do it with their own face and it won't look good on their IMDb page... Thoughts???

When I think of Doctor Doom, I think of how Stan Lee wrote him. He is dramatic and speaks in big words. He has a real sense of presence despite the fact that he can't really emote. As soon as he appears, you know it's a big deal. Despite barely being in it, that's how he was portrayed in Avengers EMH. Even the unreleased Fantastic Four film had a decent Doom. But this casting does not give me any of those vibes. I was never even that big a fan of RDJ as Iron Man. He was good, but my favorite Tony Starks are Robert Hays (from the 90's cartoons), and Eric Loomis (from Avengers EMH). Although much of that is the writing.

Especially his villains that you mentioned that can match the Hulk’s strength. Abomination, BI-Beast, The Wendigo and Absorbing Man. Having a Red Hulk is dumb. Ross was better when he was a regular human as a Hulk villain.

7:19 yes and no. The Thunderbolts were initially a team of minor supervillains recruited by Baron Zemo during the Heroes Reborn event to fill in for the displaced Avengers as part of a world domination plot. They ultimately revolted against Zemo when they preferred the hero life. The team more or less was scattered to the winds after a while and once the Avengers returned. The Suicide Squad interpretation is an invention of Warren Ellis. He made a new Thunderbolts team led by Norman Osborn to hunt down anti-registration heroes during Civil War. This run was super popular and it’s become a defining aspect to the team since then. This era of Thunderbolts also led to the Mac Gargan Venom and Iron Patriot of Dark Reign. Post-Ellis, the Thunderbolts became kind of a cult classic heroes type book. The kind of comic that has characters that have small devoted fanbases yet said characters are almost always killed off in events for cheap drama. I believe Fred Van Lente and Greg Pak oversaw this era. Anyone else is free to fill in the blanks or correct me. I haven’t read Thunderbolts in many years and I’m probably more than out of date.

I'm at my Pedro Pascal fatigue stage where I am getting tired of seeing Pedro show up in more movies. That and he does not look anything like Reed Richards. And don't get me started on female Silver Surfer. I know little to nothing about the Thunderbolts. I'm just curious to see how they'll fuck up Sentry. Captain America 4 is DOA. Nuff said.

I remember when I met the red hulk concept in the event comic avengers versus X-Men I remember being confused and then rationalizing that the avengers accept this guy on the team because they wanted to have a hulk that is under control. No idea if the actual books rationalize this decision since I don’t see why they will want this guy on the group.

I don't think directors are the ones forcing the characters to take off their mask... Darth vader was to iconic to make directors do that... Before I thought they were doing it because they don't know how to make a character act real without showing their expressions but the more i think about it, the more a mask would be gold for any director to slap on their actor's face for easy edits... I think it's the actors putting this in their contract for fear that they might have a killer acting expression in a scene and no one gets to see it because of the mask... Plus they might end up creating a well love character but no one gets to see them do it with their own face and it won't look good on their IMDb page... Thoughts???

@solivagen435 While that may have helped a bit. The bad writing for his films wouldn't have done the actor any favors. What really upset me with the films is how badly written the character is and is more Iron Man Junior than Spiderman. The bad quips and the fact that he never learns from his mistakes. That's just some of the reasons off the top of my head.

@@jamesmoyner7499 It seems like a solid plan to have talented writers update the Lee/Ditko run like "Life Story," along with casting a fresh, unknown teen actor for the role of Peter Parker.

@@solivagen435 I actually haven’t seen any of the non-marvel stuff Tom has been in and when I heard they cast him as Nathan Drake I was furious because you know they only cast him because he i(at the time) was the new “It” Star and needed to cast him in stuff. Also you can bring new and different stuff to a story done before, but it still has to make sense to the characters that came before and Tom doesn’t do it as Spiderman for me. To be perfectly honest and this is just a me thing, but I just don’t like him just like Timothee Chalamet, Mark Wahlberg, or Matthew McConaughey. They just rub me the wrong way. Also the fact that Tom Holland is going to portray legendary actor and dancer Fred Astaire for film really pisses me off because Fred went so far to have it in his will that no films be made about his life and to know not only did someone of his family sign off for that to happen, but that Tom said yes to do it to play him.

@@jamesmoyner7499I highly recommend his performance as Lucas Bennett in the film "The Impossible." In my opinion, it stands out as his best role. He was also solid in "Edge of Winter," which kept me on the edge of my seat due to its stressful tone. I agree that Tom wasn't the best choice for Nathan Drake; honestly, I wouldn't have minded seeing Nolan North in that role. I understand that the film is set in an era before the games. But Tom didn't give off that rugged energy. The same can be said for Sully. But Wahlberg's passive line reading was hilarious to me. Also, I didn't know about the Fred Astaire situation. It makes sense because Lee Hall, who previously wrote the stage play of Billy Elliot, is the screenwriter of the biopic. But it is odd that Tom Holland, who isn't a fan of the corporate machine that is Hollywood, is making a product with a signed-off death wish. He is an actor, and I think his agent is the worst. However, I am not the most prominent advocate of Tom's decision. I liked Wonka, but it was still a bit corporate.

Outside of Bucky, none of the characters in Thunderbolts have any fan interest. All the other characters were in either mediocre to bad movies or shows that most of the moviegoing public never watched. Granted, that could be a benefit if they retooled all the characters, but so far from the trailers they are behaving exactly the same.

Just because it's the MCU doesn't mean they couldn't set up Spiderman's world. He has some of the most interesting stories and an iconic rogues gallery. Lots of companies and prisons and such. But nah, let's just connect it to Tony Stark. That's just lazy and not very creative. Bucky had the shield for almost a decade in the comics before Falcon. Would've made more sense to give him the shield first to continue his redemption arc. It may not be real, but I still want it to feel like Norse mythology. I want it to feel like the comics. Would you raceswap Black Panther and Wakandans? It isn't real, so it shouldn't matter right?

I don't get the switch up on Sam ive been seeing recently. Steve choose Sam for the shield over Bucky because Sam has a cleaner record. Bucky was the Winter Solider for over 70 years and he still suffers greatly from the trauma of going through that. He may check some boxes like being a Super Soldier, but he isn't mentally ready for the responsibilities of being Captain America. Sam may not be a Super Solider but he's been around Cap long enough to build a close connection with him. He's proven himself to be a good man since his first appearance in the Winter Soldier. From Steve's perspective there's really no one better than Sam since he's proven that he's constantly willing to help stand against the other side to do whats right.

You don't mention anything about how the original team was a group of villains posing as heroes to achieve their objectives... Then some members of the Thunderbolts seek redemption after being heroes for a while.....you have such an interesting premise and you go and take the iteration of the team that was like the suicide squad .. what a great choice, you have thought a lot. You should have said that they should have been introduced after End Game since the Avengers were not there... and thus be faithful to the original iteration, which is a concept that is not merely a copy of Suicide Squad.
