Didn't watch the video, but JK Simmons definitely has to be in the "Best" section for his casting as J. Jonah Jameson.

That Gordon vs. Jameson movie would be a better movie than Batman vs. Superman.

I knew somebody would elect Michael Douglas which is BS considering we haven't seen him in the role yet.

I can understand why some are upset that they are going with an older Pym. I get that. That's a different matter than who they cast for the role. If they chose to go with an older Pym (though there will be a younger Pym as well), I think Michael Douglas is an excellent choice to play an older Pym. He's a fantastic actor.

I thought Chiklis did a solid job as well.

@ Jollem

In all fairness, you may be right. Maybe it was the costume/make up I hated.
