Why the hell should Chris Evans & Jeremy Renner apologize for having a bit of relaxed, humorous banter?
Because people today are just so bloody, god damned, inanely overly sensitive. Somehow along the way, we as a people let it be an okay thing to do, and let people feel like they’re entitled to be “offended” by every little thing in life. Specially when it isn’t even directed towards you at all!
They’re talking in jest about a fictional character for Stan Lee’s sake and how it seemed at one time Black Widow would be with Hawkeye, then Captain America but ends up being keen on Hulk essentially playing the other two.
There’s a difference if they were on camera talking seriously about how much they feel Scarlett Johansson is the dirtiest slut on the planet, but that’s not even close to what is happening.
Check out the below video for this ground breaker, earth shatter-er, stain on the humane.
Now let’s looks at a couple ridiculous tweets that followed.
Really people? Really? If THIS is all it takes to get you riled up and up in arms in the morning, then your life must be pretty damned fantastic! I don’t care if this is from an interview, or from what movie they’re promoting. If anything this piece of “choice wording” has given the film more publicity, not that it needed any.
Situations like this are what really keeps me away from the internet, specially the forums and comment sections of anything. There are ALWAYS plenty of people amongst them to give me reasons to /FACEPALM about my connection to humanity.
Thankfully though if you read further enough you find some normal, sane, collected and well minded people. See below.
I can breath a slight sigh of relief. It is a reminder for me to stay away from people on the internet comments and forums for the most part as I am guaranteed to find a mass amount of dense and narrow minded souls that inhabit this planet, however unfortunate.
I for one love Chris & Jeremy’s retorts and chortled quite elaborately as it exactly along the lines of what either myself, or my friends would have said. Which is awesome as it just shows how much they are just like you and me, normal guys talking shit. It’s great.
Both actors have since, probably while rolling their eyes and \facepalming, apologized in statements which you can read below. Although, Renner seems a bit more cynical. See his tweet image at the end.
Chris Evans:
“Yesterday we were asked about the rumors that Black Widow wanted to be in a relationship with both Hawkeye and Captain America. We answered in a juvenile and offensive way that rightfully angered some fans. I regret it and sincerely apologize.”
Jeremy Renner:
“I am sorry that this tasteless joke about a fictional character offended anyone. It was not meant to be serious in any way. Just poking fun during an exhausting and tedious press tour.”
Everyone, get over yourselves and get a life.
Uncle Chunt, out!
