It probably felt a lot less like selling out and more like making it in 2014/15 joining a MCU cast and before getting a decade of those checks from Disney. Not saying all MCU movies are bad, but there is an obvious commercialism to them downplaying the more artistic subversive and counterculture history from comics. I don't think it would make sense to hold that against anyone though, plenty of actors and directors take on a mix of more commercial and artistic projects.
If someone tried to chat me up about what I do for money, I'd be fortunate to be so gentle about shutting them down.
Weird fetish stuff, huh? I get it...
On the sliding scale of capitalist whoredom, my line of work is far less salubrious than were I a gigolo; I work in maritime claims.
I’m surprised Marvel/Disney isn’t making their stars sign a ”non-disparagement clause” at this point, considering how many of them keep shitting on the entire concept of these movies.
Is the quoting in that headline hard for anyone else to follow?
So weird that she feels/others feel she needs to prove *anything". Marvel movies, Oscar winners, reality TV... Who really cares? I think most people consume a wide variety of media. I have my highly acclaimed things, but I also have "junk food" shows...
No shame in admitting you used the gig for a sweet payday. Most people don't see the MCU as nothing more than your average B-grade horror flick. It exists. We consume it and move on. It no longer has any semblance of quality that makes it memorable in any way whatsoever.
