Hiddleston said that he had played Loki pretending to be Cap, and Chris Evans watched the tape of it and modeled his performance on it, so what we got was not Evans playing Cap, but Evans pretending to be Loki pretending to be Cap. Which is totally different.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Well, I knew he wasn't actually playing Cap as Cap.
I know Hiddleston is really good at doing impressions, so the idea of Evans basing his performance on doing an impression of an impression doesn't surprise me, though it's still fun.
I saw Kill Your Darlings yesterday. Interesting to see a Beat Generation-themed movie that was centered on Ginsberg rather than Kerouac or Cassady. I was a bit thrown off by them showing him infatuated with Lucien Carr though; I thought they were just friends and it was Cassady that Ginsberg had a big crush on.
I want to see that one, Matt. Back in the day we would have called it "grad school trash" a la Gothic.

That's my take, but Ginsberg was so repressed and crushing on those around him, and Lucien was quite pretty.
(Note for grad school trash fanciers: Lucien's son Caleb Carr wrote The Alienest.)

Have some patience: it gets better as it goes along.
Holy shit, yeah. I agree. The first minute or so is okay, but then it's consistently awesome, and by the end, I had feels.

Zach Synder, UGH. I would be otherwise psyched to see Wonder Woman on the big screen, but I just can't with Snyder.
