The Inevitable Manti Te’o Movie
“Up” was too real of a movie man. I wasn’t ready for Disney to hit me with that.
When i first saw it, i started off thinking, “aww happy times. good times with disney. This’ll be a fun a movie.”
Next thing i know; Death. Dude without a wife. Lonely AF.
I haven’t seen the movie since that first time for these reasons.
It was too real.
had me teary eyed n stuff
Robert Downey Jr.'s 'Avengers' Pay To Reportedly Hit $50 Million
Downey’s “Avengers” co-stars stand to make a fraction of his earnings, in part because of a savvy deal the “Iron Man” lead reportedly renegotiated, under which he would receive a portion of Marvel’s revenue from any future film in which he plays Tony Stark. He allegedly rejiggered the deal when the first “Iron Man” film dialed up $585 million in 2008.
Though Downey’s deal is not unheard of for the rarefied circle of Hollywood’s biggest names, it’s a great deal more than any of his “Avengers” cohorts. Sources say Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Jeremy Renner and Mark Ruffalo will each ultimately make $2 million to $3 million from the film.
Marvel has a history of cutting sharp deals. Terrence Howard, who starred with Downey Jr. in the first “Iron Man” film, was reportedly faced with a 50 to 80 percent pay cut for the sequel after the studio learned director Jon Favreau planned to limit his role. Howard’s agents smarted, and though it’s unknown if he walked out or if Marvel decided to go a different direction, Don Cheadle replaced Howard for the sequel.
Seriously though, all of them arent their character. RDJ is Tony Stark

At the Summer Box Office, a Battle Between Two Ways of Filming
This summer, Hollywood’s blockbusters are engaging in a high-stakes format war between cutting-edge digital technology and old-fashioned, photochemical film. Digitally photographed thrillers like The Avengers, Prometheus, and The Amazing Spider-Man will be battling it out with equally epic movies shot on film such as The Dark Knight Rises, Men in Black 3, and Battleship. Indeed, no summer in recent memory boasts so much variety in terms of how films are photographed and exhibited.
Yet with studios looking to trim costs on increasingly expensive “tentpole” movies, traditional celluloid film—easily the more expensive of the two formats—may be on its way out as the cinema’s medium of choice. Still, advocates of film continue to make compelling arguments about why theirs is the more enduring medium, even as both sides pull out their biggest guns this summer in an effort to prove definitively the commercial value of their respective formats.
