It's kind of surprising this doesn't happen more often, only other example I can think of are all the Bruce Li/Bruce Ly/Bruce Le movies

There's also The Man With Bogart's face and a movie called John Travolto: The Face with Two Left Feet.

How long until these guys get sued by Bronson's estate?

Also, who gives people money to make movies this bad? I've always been curious.

I mean, I feel like that would be a genuinely hairy situation, because they didn't make up Robert Bronzi to look like that, and aside from casting him in a role Bronson would play, they're not really leaning into it too hard. Dude is just legitimately a loving dead ringer for 70s Bronson, to the point where I did a serious double-take and thought they were using archive footage.

Nope, that's seriously just what he looks like. Like, I genuinely almost kind of feel bad for the guy, because a look at IMDB tells me he's really trying to get his acting career to take off and... ha ha. ha ha ha.

yeah, i mean it sounds like they wrote a movie for Bronson, went "oh poo poo that guy's dead" and found the closest-looking guy they could

but at the same time, they're not, like, pretending he actually is Bronson, the most they're doing is making kinda-subtle jokes about how he looks like him. which is true, he looks creepily like him.

Because it was going to be the final season anyway and pre-production was already underway. Basically you're saying "lol why didn't they just make 200 people lose their jobs instead of 1?"

Pretty much. It would be like finishing the last GoT season without Dinklage or Emilia Clarke. It's just stupid.

They're used so sparingly that theyre pretty effective in making a movie feel odd all on their own.

Hence my confusion over your "the top gun thing doesn't work in today's culture" take. What you're describing hasn't seemed to be a problem for any previous Marvel films, I don't think the audience particularly cares. I suspect there are a lot of people that do care about these things, still don't care about it in superhero films.

Have you avoided Marvel films in the past because of this? In general you seem to like a lot of action stuff, much of which is likely to be more overtly pro-military industrial complex than Captain Marvel will be. Just seems to be a disconnect between someone having a big issue with this in the trailer for Captain Marvel... yet apparently having paid to see Mile 22 in the cinema :shrug:

All MCU films are agitprop actually

quote:

Despite multiple reports of a sequel, Reilly said the plan never went anywhere. “We’ve been talking about it pretty much since the first one came out,” he said. “For most artists, sequels aren’t the most attractive thing. Fans, of course, are different. If you like pizza, you want more pizza. I understand people really getting into the idea, but in terms of having something on the table, no, there isn’t.”

Reilly has gotten used to answering this question. “If I go out on the street, pretty much every day that I’m out in public, somebody asks about a sequel,” he said. In 2017, Will Ferrell told the Daily News that he and writer-director Adam McKay had developed a story that follows the two men as they attempt to retire along with their parents, but the project never materialized. “We had some great ideas over the years,” Reilly said. “I hope I don’t age out of the possibility. It might be really sad if we’re like 60 years old and doing it.”

Reilly’s given a lot of thought to the original movie’s enduring appeal. “It’s so funny, it’s so broad, but at the core of it are these very real family issues, and I think that makes the movie really subversive in a way,” he said. “It has staying power. You know, we really meant it when we made that movie. We weren’t just trying to make people laugh. We really tried to commit to what it would be like to be 40 years old and living with your parents.”
