In the movie business, you have to be able to work with others to succeed. Unlike other professions, if you have a bad personality type, nobody will work with you. For example, he understands that you need to give creative liberty to the filmmakers. If he was stubborn and said no the CGI should be like this, he would be out of the job

@Drake Barnes I know I've seen all their names but none of them stuck with me. He was a seriously underused character because he should have been fighting with hulk or at a minimum with Thor. The first fight with iron Man and Spider-Man was cool but then we don't see him again until wakanda and he doesn't really do anything until the hulkbuster armor. That should have been the part of the movie for Hulk to get his payback.

Totally agree. I live here in Welly and have been a few times. It's excellent! First place I lived after moving here from Canada was the suburb of Kilbirnie - in 2002, I would walk this little pathway next to my house over to a big "WalMart" style store nearby, to buy cheap crap ... and I'd pass this series of non-descript looking metal garages, all side by side (with no windows), and one had a small sign on them that simply said "Weta". It was their first studio setup ... when I learned what Weta was a bit later, I was all "WHOA!" They got their much larger studios of course for LOTR, but still ... seeing the original 'sheds' they worked in so close to my house was awesome.
