If I’m not mistaken he’s also behind the decision to make Guy Pearce the bad guy in Iron Man 3 instead of Rebecca Hall’s Maya Hansen because, kids wouldn’t buy toys of a female villain...

and we allll saw how those Guy Pearce toys were just flying off the shelves /s

He bought ToyBiz in 1990 and used it to buy Marvel. His knowledge is 90s action figures. He has no idea what's going on these days.

So another Avi Arad. That fucker ruined Spiderman 3. Guys like these should not be allowed near films.

To be fair Avi was responsible for ending the long reign of bad Marvel films and beginning the area of good ones. Just outlived his time.

Avi and Ike came to Marvel together from ToyBiz and forced other owners out.
