I know your career shouldn't define you...but damn, a fucking mattress salesman over a Hollywood actor?

Really great candid interview. His weariness over the cap role though conflicts slightly with his other recent comments about happily playing the role as long as marvel wants him. Maybe he just needs to work more but it sounds like the marvel shoots really take a lot out of him too.

Supposedly she also turned down Tom Welling for a date on the set if Smallville. She says because he was married at the time.
That is what I mean, not that nobody will die, but the people that say it's a forgone conclusion that Cap must die because of contracts, that he is sitting out one of the films, and he is retiring after Infinity War, along with RDJ and Hemsworth.
People still talk about all this stuff like it's a fact based only on contract speculation.
Sounds Evans wants to do another Snowpiecer or direct a new movie but Infinity War has him by the balls unless he does everything this year and is free around 2017.

tbf, they just hammered out two Avengers movies in a year
Downey/Evans/ScarJo gotta be tired as fuck
They might start filming by the end of 2016. How long was BvS filming?

Doesn't conflict IMO.
What I got out of this is that the outside stuff is what stresses him out (the premieres,the business meetings, the appearances, etc.) not the acting. That also sounds like the reason he didn't want to sign the long contact initially.

I think it is? I'm probably wrong but I remember hearing that.
tbh the same kinda thing happened when they did Pirates back to back, that shit was a madhouse apparently with rewrites
And yeah Evans clearly fucking despises the publicity stuff, dude gets H A M M E R E D before all of them

Can't wait for a giant crab woman to fight Ant-Man and a 20 minute scene of Tony talking to imaginary clones of himself while in the Negative Zone.

Actually she did a lot of extra work and is friends with the actress who played Zartana. Her sister is also one of Canada's top models and is hotter than the surface of the sun.

You should be Johnny Storm then. Flame on.
If they ever show off Owen Reece... Man will it get trippy.
The title of this thread reminded me that the Finding Dory trailer was played just before this one. Ultra MEH, it's the safest retread of the original that could be possibly made. They copied lots of scenes it seems.
Tangentially related, I loved how in this movie some money shots were used against the heroes. It felt great. They managed the stakes very well.

Downey seems content with just being Tony Stark but I'm pretty impressed with how much work ScarJo puts in between Marvel shoots.
They got until November. It sounds like the Russos and Marcus/McFeely have been working on all 3 of their films concurrently too.

Why Chris Evans is The Anxious Avenger
http://www.rollingstone.com/movies/...-evans-is-the-anxious-avenger-20160504?page=2
That makes me like him more, and feel more sorry for him.
And as a straight male, that picture makes me question some things about myself as well...

And you're telling me all this, when instead you could be working towards a threesome with her and her sister?
C'mon, bruh.
Just finished watching Iron Man for the first time in forever and it's crazy to think that this scene actually signaled that they were going to make a movie universe instead of just being a one-off thing.

LOL. I'm married bro. She's actually my wife's friend.
Plans did kinda change but yep, that was spark. Also funny around that time WB was pushing for Justice League.

Actually he was the best part of fantastic four and was a great Johnny storm. Too bad the rest of the movies stunk.
Rewatching Age of Ultron, I feel like Whedon should have taken a slight step back from trying to balance everyone equally like he did with The Avengers. That was a team film with the central story about bringing together the team. AoU is still about all the members, but I think there is a pretty strong throughline around Tony/Ultron/Vision that also ties the Twins to Stark as if gives them reason to become antagonists, and later Cap is the one who brings them on board.
If just seems to me that it could have helped the narrative feel stronger if it centered a little more around Tony's story, because even the Hulk destruction directly involves him fighting Hulk. It would have set up Civil War even stronger, if they would have known that film was next, especially in the way that AoU could have/should have been a character turning point for Tony in the way The Winter Soldier was for Steve. It still was (and I assume we'll see some of that after the fact in Civil War) but I don't think people really came away from AoU thinking it was a Iron Man story, but with just a little more of the film focusing on that, could have made the AoU and Avengers story with Tony at the core in the same way Civil War is an Avengers story with Cap at the core.
Even to shift some of the 3rd act to deal with some of Tony's guilt about what he unleashed with Ultron. He seems to dismiss it at the end of the 1st act when Ultron first attacks them and tries to right his wrongs with Vision, but when there is that city in the sky and it seems like they are staring at the possibility of the whole being destroyed, it would be great to have Tony realize how bad he fucked up, or how out of control things got for even the Avengers trying to handle things on their own. He certainly deserved a one on one villain/hero scene with Ultron again at the end. Tony talks with him in the 3rd act, but it doesn't really carry the conflict. It could have used a final talk with Ultron to conclude that antagonistic father/son relationship. The ending exchange between Ultron and Vision was great, they needed some final Ultron/Stark exchange.
Speaking of which, they could also have added a personal conflict scene like that between the twins and Stark near the beginning (say before the mind control) to help establish a more direct and personal conflict there, rather than leaving that all for the scene with them and Ultron when they meet him and they explain their grudge with Stark.
Missed opportunity, I guess.

Best part in "Sunshine" too where he plays an asshole who turns out to be a lot braver and rational than the rest of his crew mates.

"you wanna do the 7:15?"
"Nah, too early for me. Can we do the 7:16!?"
"Nah, too early for me. Can we do the 7:16!?"
Kind of makes sense in retrospect why they decided to go the direction they did with IM2 since it was still before The Avengers, which made the most sense due to IM1's success.
That's why they made it so he was rejected for the Avengers and SHIELD was just keeping tabs on him in the mean time because the after credits scene for IM1 and TIH made it seem like the Avenger team was already being assembled.
"you wanna do the 7:15?"
"Nah, too early for me. Can we do the 7:16!?"
And that's just for 2D showings at one theater....wow.
It really is playing like an Avengers film.
Lower your expectations. It's better that way.

Was in the spoiler thread without realizing but luckily I didn't get spoiled on anything. 
Like 15 hours until I see it, I think. I've done a good job of avoiding spoilers so far and nearly there!
