    I like the fact that Hawkeye always got like no attention, and shit, throughout the whole phase 1 through 4. But now that I look back on it, Renner really did an amazing job making the character grounded, relatable and to be honest amazing. To be fair, many of the members of the Avengers doesn't actually have any superpower, so he's not actually a bad addition to the team :)

      Sadly you’re mistaken. I remember watching an hour long interview British film critic Barry Norman did with Clooney in 1997 where George was asked which upcoming projects he was looking forward to making. He was making Batman and Robin at the time and said how much fun Schwarzenegger was to work with. He also mentioned Out Of Sight, so I don’t believe he didn’t want to make Batman and Robin. It’s just a shame he did as the film was crap.

Kilmer strikes me as someone who genuinely thinks he never got the breaks he thought he deserved. And while that may be true to an extent, I can't help think it was ironically his own inflated self-importance that hindered him.

Then, I might be able to muster up enough energy to have some empathy for these overpaid pretenders. I save lives for a living. They only act like they do, yet they make more in a year than I will see in a lifetime. I suppose if they don't like their jobs, they could get a degree and work a real job. Then they would really have something to whine about.

It would be the studios. No one is going to see the trash they make now. Yet, they still make millions in anticipation of drawing in a big box office crowd. If the movie barely breaks even, and the star is paid $20 million, and they have multiple high paid actors, the numbers don't add up for the "you're paying their bills" spiel. Somebody is, and it isn't just Joe Q. Public. It certainly isn't me. I'm too busy paying bills, and there hasn't been a movie worth watching in years.

    Roy Scheider didn't want to appear in Jaws 2 but had reached an agreement with Universal Pictures to get out of a contract for backing out of The Deer Hunter at the last minute. He even got into a physical fight with director Jeannot Szwarc. I read part of the reason Gable didn't want the role is they actually wanted to include how Rhett Butler was a member of a certain organization that sprung up in the south after The Civil War.

    Jennifer Lawrence not wanting to be in Dark Phoenix was painfully obvious; she was sleepwalking through the part. Plus, I suspect her hatred of putting all the make-up on (which is somewhat understandable) ended up with much fairer blue for Raven, and despite the character's trait of pride in her Mutantkind, she is more onscreen as her "disguised" self, as in, absolutely none of the special make-up, thus conflicting with the character's main persona.
    That said, since Dark Phoenix was such a dumpster fire, I can't entirely blame her for wanting to get out of it as soon as possible.
