re: Jason Statham takes a shot at Marvel

A lot of the modern action movies you see, Marvel comic sort of things, I just think that any guy could do it. I have no ambition.

Dude has made a career out of being an action star in shitty, cheesy action movies. That is firing a gatlin gun from a glass house.

They’re relying on stunt doubles, and green screen, and $200 million budgets,

so he's mad that the movies that he is in don't have big budgets? shite on them all you want, they still print money when they make them. They could put a 800 million dollar budget on the next Avengers movie and still clear a billion.

To me, it’s not authentic.

frick him. Like getting a bunch of 60 year olds together to make a fricking action movie about them doing ridiculous shite is authentic? How about jumping a fricking supercar through two or three buildings? Not authentic either. Name something that Statham has done that is actually authentic.

All that said, I do agree with him to an extent but that is also the point of comic book movies. They aren't set in the real world with real world limitations.
