MagnusX 08/11/21 12:51:44 PM #15:	Absolutely. I don't give a fuck who plays what character or if characters are recast - especially now that ~~Loki visibly broke open the multiverse and we're likely to see multiple Spider-men~~ - I just want an entertaining movie with a rich interconnectivity to the rest of the MCU. If fact, I almost always prefer an unknown to be cast as I have a hard time separating a famous actor from their previous roles, aside from gems like Gary Oldman and Daniel Day-Lewis. <cite>MagnusX posted [p:956985988] in Can Disney...

bigblu89 08/11/21 12:57:00 PM #16:	sktgamer_13dude posted... Good movies and good stories. WandaVision and Loki were amazing. Exactly. WandaVison wasn't really filled with "big name" actors, at least not on the level that the other MCU movies are. If anything, their involvement in the MCU is what turned Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany in "big name actors". No one really says "Elizabeth Olsen? The lady from Wind River?".

bigblu89 08/11/21 2:33:24 PM #24:	ViewtifulGrave posted... Don Cheadle, Jeff Bridges, Terrence Howard, and Gwyneth Paltrow? I was more talking about the actor/actress that was the "starring role" in the film. None of the movies they were in were movies where them being in it is what sold the movie. Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Jeremy Renner, Brie Larson, etc. Those were established actors, but not necessarily the cream of the crop as far as box office appeal goes until they were a part of the MCU. Every single one of those roles could've been played by a virtual "no name" or fringe level star, and the movies would've been just as successful. I see it similar to Star Wars. Most of the actors in The Force awakens were fringe level stars or virtual unknowns. The Star Wars name is what sold the movie, just like the MCU umbrella is what sells those movies. People are going to see the story continue, not going because Chris Evans (for example) is in the movie. --- It takes zero effort to be a good person. <cite>bigblu89 posted [p:956988992] in Can Disney...
