    When you realise one of the greatest movies that
    1. Exploded the MCU
    2. Gave RDJ his comeback
    3. Set a tone for future superhero movies/shows
    Was basically an improv 🤣🤣🤣

      The tone part is the issue honestly because instead of borrowing the team's process Marvel tried to strictly script in the results, quips included, regardless of film.

      Also to say it didn't cost any extra is disingenuous. Paying crew for time they aren't actually working while you fumble around trying to create a script isn't exactly cost saving lmaooo

    They're dancing around it, but usually when the script is being "written on set" that means the studio is butting heads with the filmmakers. Changes and compromises are being made. It's not that the script wasn't written beforehand, it's more that it's being adjusted throughout, which is actually very common.
