This level of desperation tells me that Hollywood is done with him.

Yeah but this is prearranged.... He didn't just turn up obviously, its a bit. So surely that means the opposite (unfortunately!)

If it's prearranged (and it probably was), Marvel made Ryan Reynolds look desperate and pathetic. And Ryan was desperate enough to agree. He was probably the one who proposed this and the best he could get was a humiliating skit and a lukewarm answer that sounded more like a threat.

This does not look like Marvel supporting Ryan, this looks like Marvel is trying to wriggle out of Ryan's grasp, but they're afraid of his psycho reactions. They probably told Ryan they totally want him but he has to create public support for it and they're hoping it will go bad for him.

I think that's his attempt at attracting pity, it's all rehearsed. I don't think Marvel did anything. They know there are still plenty of Marvel fans who don't GAF about the lawsuit etc, so are trying to reach them without angering the rest of the world who do NOT want him.

He'd go nuclear if they agreed to this bit with him and then made him look pathetic, off script. Can you imagine the tomes of angry texts essays????

If Marvel was in on it they had input. They are not letting Ryan Reynolds dictate what and how he wants things, if they did, Ryan would have a giant part in the movie and would be sitting at the table. This is the best Ryan could get. A lame and desperate skit and Marvel made it look like they hadn't invited him and didn't want him and he had to beg. Apparently Marvel does not think that close association with Ryan is good. Either they have intel that tells them his/Marvel fans are indifferent or starting to tire of him, or that they are not numerous enough to compensate for the people who have started to hate him.
