It'll make great news, let's go. Quote

BloodyHell Posted April 20, 2023 Posted April 20, 2023 It’s a sad story, because he’s a great actor. Completely destroyed what would have been a storybook career because he couldn’t control himself and his temper. 2 Quote

What BloodyHell said is more or less accurate, with the qualification that stress response(s) can be similarly amplified when someone is on a cycle, or coming off one without proper post-cycle therapy. With that said, it is more common to see "roid rage" like tendencies from select derivatives like Tren, as opposed to pure testosterone, which can be a meaningful distinction, as there are some whose steroid use is largely limited to supraphysiological doses of testosterone. It's become increasingly common with growth in the TRT sector. From what I've read so far (with no comments on the accuracy of the reporting), it sounds as though Majors is just an asshole. If the stories are true, then he would be more the type for whom the steroid usage amps up aggressive tendencies in general. Quote

I agree with both of you, my wife and I have been watching him since Lovecraft County and he's been killing it ever since as an actor. He was easily the best part of Ant-Man 3. Also the bodybuilder movie he's in is called Magazine Dreams and it's supposed to be pretty good - I'd been looking forward to watching it.

Kal-El814 Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 Forgetting anything in the MCU where filming has already wrapped, this take on Kang would be one of the easiest characters to recast from a plot POV. If multiple Lokis can look different, surely different Kangs can as well. EDIT - not that they NEED an in-plot justification of course, just saying that it's right there with Kang specifically. Quote

Quantumania spoiler (I haven't seen it yet but saw this mentioned somewhere): Spoiler Apparently some of the alternate universe Kangs shown in Quantumania are straight-up aliens so yeah if that's true then absolutely zero reason there can't just be a human Kang that looks different. I guess there's some stuff with Kang having statues of himself that have Majors' face on them but I guess that's only a problem if they're planning to try to do reshoots/digital actor replacement (a la Tig Notaro)/CGI updates of material he's already in? Like I agree no need for an in-universe explanation of a different-looking Kang in general but it'd be weird to have a different-looking Kang have a bunch of statues of Majors Kang. Quote

The only thing I’ve ever personally noticed was an a slight increase in aggression, never the rage that’s widely believed to be standard. I’ve also never seen it in any of the people I’ve known who’ve juiced hard. Mood swings are possible if you don’t come off your cycles correctly sure but I doubt that steroids are the cause here. Consider it like alcohol, just manifests the underlying mood. Quote

I agree, though I feel compelled to point out that it's also sad because he's been abusing people! I'm sure you agree, but I think limiting the description of why it's sad to how it affects his career and our entertainment can be alienating to people who have suffered abuse. 1 Quote

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted July 1, 2023 Posted July 1, 2023 Yeah, and that’s a lot of smoke for there to be no fire. Love all these chuds on IGN defending him. They always bring up Johnny Depp, as if that validates all their notions that women are always lying to hurt successful men. I didn’t even really follow the Depo case closely enough to know if he was really a piece of shit or not. Quote
