I'm a Marvel Video #7
2007-10-09 09:29:00

It's been a while since we've heard from Michael Agrusso, the madman behind the I'm a Marvel, I'm a DC video series. Well, it was a while. I just talked to him. He's doing well, I'll let him know you were asking.

Anyway, he gave me the video below to post here on Marvel.com. Here's what he has to to say about this clip...and the questions I asked him.

Agent M: Why switch over to the villains? Do you have more fun playing with bad guys? Goblin and LL are definitely meaner and more sarcastic than most of the heroes.
Michael Agrusso: With each new video, I was trying to come up with a new spin on the Marvel/DC/Mac/PC concept. It made sense to go to the villains' point of view. I was looking forward to getting to the villains, because there's much more freedom to be meaner and snarkier.
With the heroes, it never would have felt right if they just started trashing each other (at least not TOO much). I always wanted everyone to act more or less in character. Once you throw in villains, you can have them say horrible, insulting things to each other, and it's forgivable because that's pretty much what they would do.

Agent M: Favorite super hero movie villain? Least favorite?
Michael Agrusso: Well, I loved Alfred Molina's Doc Ock and Ian McKellan's Magneto. As for least favorite...y'know I really like the recent incarnation of Mr. Freeze...and I'm sure Arnold Schwarzenegger's a good guy and all...but they were not a match made in heaven. But then, that's hardly the only thing wrong with that movie.

I....will refrain from commenting further. Lawsuits and superspies don't mix! Enjoy the video.

Written and filmed by Michael Agrusso.
