I love ruffalo and think he's had an incredible and well-deserved career even long before marvel movies came along but I also love snobbery and high(er) art so.... I win either way :)

the 'sell-out' debate has been happening since the very first commercialisation of art, this is no different. I can understand why auteurs don't want their movies muddied with the obviously corporate offenders (disney). I don't think it's a personal thing. the idea of their being a social punishment for selling out is the way the scales can be balanced more in favour of those with less money/power. a bit like cancellation originally being a response to institutions not taking accountability because they would be harming their own investments. I think it's really interesting, even if it's a concept that can't universally be applied to art right now (particularly most musicians).

I'm sure his money will comfort him in his darkest hours.

lol this. I do think Mark is quite talented tbh but I’m not gonna feel that bad for him and the “stigma” if he’s sitting on Marvel money.

As Michael Caine said about Jaws-The Revenge: “I have never seen it, but by all accounts it is terrible. However, I have seen the house that it built, and it is terrific.”

...when was the last time he was in a Marvel movie? Endgame?

[eowyn]

He was in the She Hulk series. I don't know when that was though. it feels like a decade ago lol

Are we sure it's someone that's not in Marvel? Because this sounds like something Benedict Cumberbatch would say.

[qaladriel]

lmao actually, it does sort of sound like a salty actor who considers what they do prestige and used marvel to bolster their name, but I think he would've said that if so as 'proof' or something if so

[magzness]

lmao didn't he say something like this to Brent Spiner about Star Trek

[britt_m_89]

Yes which made me think Mark was talking about him.

I don’t think much of Jensen as a person but he is just stunning to look at
