Welcome to The Extras! A daily dose of all the smaller movie related news, clips and just plain cool stuff that you might have missed!

You may recall how two weeks ago it was reported that Vin “I gargle with” Diesel was contacted by Marvel for some unspecified super secret future project. At the time, Darryn was convinced that Diesel’s basso profondo throat pipes would be perfect for Guardians of the Galaxy’s gun-happy anthropomorphic animal, Rocket Raccoon, while I aimed my speculations a bit higher on …

As a bonafide comic book geek, I say this with the utmost respect: Hawkeye is stupid. This is a character who hangs out with gods and godly men, and all he brings to the table is “I done shoot arrows, real gud!” And yet, Jeremy Renner completely sold me on the character in The Avengers.
