Josh Horowitz might have stood up for Tom but now Marvel is the size of Thanos wearing the infinity gauntlet. His “protest” won’t get further than his cubicle

I just meant that during the interview, when he did (reasonably) cast doubt on the notion that Idris Elba ages, he might also have said that if Tom Hiddleston ages, it is only the way a great wine does. Of course that would have had no effect on any decisions made at Marvel, but briefly shaming the Russos might have been nice.

as for the “tom too old to play loki”

not surprised it comes from the same people who gave us this useless fatphobic moment

not only does hemsworth look 1. much older than 34 (i’m not judging it’s whatever) 2. older STILL with thor’s new beard 

it’s kind of okay if they don’t look like they’re in their early 20s 

they are ~1500 years old and they’ve been through hell 

it’s okay if they look a bit tired 

still, can’t believe they actually fucking said it 

it’s just rude

poor tom for having to actively promote this shit 

Why did Josh Horowitz not object? He did object (rightly) to the idea that Idris Elba is aging, but I thought he might have stood up for his friend.
