Anthony Mackie defends wearing Doom green to the #Marvel presentation at #ComicCon:
"I'm already on the dark side. No, I mean, it's Doomsday. That's the whole point. Just like on Taco Tuesday, you eat tacos. Around Christmas, you open presents. On Doomsday, you wear Doom green."
One of the storylines this week has been Alex Bowman's decision to retire after the 2027 season. Here is teammate Chase Elliott's reaction to the news of someone he considered a "good dude" and a solid teammate: @NASCARONFOX

Robert Downey Jr. Reveals What It Was Really Like Becoming Doctor Doom
Q : "Robert, considering you're playing Doom, what noticeable similarities are there between Doom and Tony Stark?"
Robert Downey Jr. : "There's the science thing, they're both considered pretty brilliant guys. Tony had the trauma that turned him into a hero."
"Doom's got the exact opposite. It takes the prowess of all these folks to go up against him."
"It was a joy to behold. It was really weird being on the other side of a bad guy mask."
"It's such an isolated vibe. I'm seeing them all socializing and stuff and I'm the enemy."
Stephen King got tired of directors like Kubrick “screwing up” his books, so with zero experience, he directed Maximum Overdrive himself (Turns 40 today). He scarcely remembers making it because he put half of Bolivia up his nose.
He later disowned it as a “moron movie”.
One more race. One more incredible moment.
Hendrick Motorsports is loaning me the No. 48 for my final Cup Series start in the 2027 DAYTONA 500. I’m beyond grateful to Rick, @Alex_Bowman, @TeamHendrick and @AllyRacing for making this possible.
I never imagined this could happen. It’s a gesture I’ll carry with me forever.
Charlie Sheen reflects on the emotional toll Apocalypse Now took on his father, Martin Sheen, and the heartbreaking moment he realized something had changed.
Apocalypse Now damn near killed the cast and Francis Ford Coppola. Typhoons wiped out sets, tropical diseases and parasites tore through the crew, Sheen had a near-fatal heart attack, Hopper was lost in a fog of drugs and alcohol, Coppola had breakdowns and seizures… delays, chaos, and madness for over a year. The production itself became the war. Any Apocalypse Now fans?

Chris Evans says Marvel pitched him a dozen times over to return until they told him Robert Downey Jr. was back
Chris :"When we finished Endgame in 2018 Lou and Kevin took me to dinner and said we'd love to keep doing movies with Steve Rogers as Nomad...They showed me a pitch but for whatever reason it just didn't feel right at the time"
"over the course of eight years I probably heard at least a dozen pitches...They were all wonderful but It just never quite felt right"
"And then I got a phone call from my team saying there's a rumor Downey talking to Marvel and I was like it felt right this time"
This The Dark Knight scene was one of the first action sequences ever shot in IMAX. For wide shots, Christian Bale was actually harnessed over 100 meters above ground, assisted by Hong Kong stuntmen, insisting on doing part of the stunt himself.
