He's spot on. I'm not saying everyone has to believe superhero movies are high cinema, but it's crazy how dismissive some are towards the movies just because of what they are. The good ones were essentially this era's equivalent to the original Star Wars trilogy or sci-fi blockbusters like the 90s Terminator and Alien movies.

And there was some solid acting in a lot of them.

Infinity Saga was some great movies

 

[Iceberg_Taylor]

the conversation wouldnt even be had if some of these movies weren't great overall cinema
This whole discourse only exists cause alot of those movies in the Infinity Saga changed the convo around comic movies and how they are viewed

 

[Infamous114]

If those films were seen as a joke, they wouldn't be pulling the caliber of actors they get for their projects. Of course you'll have your exceptions like Leonardo DiCaprio but yea

A lot of the criticisms came from salty ass directors who wasn’t making money.

Niggas who ain’t had a solid movie since ‘The Departed’, but wanna talk about “cInEmA”

If Leo going buying out movie theaters waving around lightsabers n shit like a weirdo he would for sure do a superhero movie given the right circumstances lol

this shit is hilarious for a couple reasons. You shit on movies that are coming up with new tech to enhance storytelling and then go ahead and use the same tech they pioneered for your movie. Foh

Marvel is held to a crazy high standard (due to the quality they've dropped). Their biggest misses wouldn't be the worst films of whatever year they dropped. Like there's literally worse shit dropping year round from other studios

Bruh the loudest MF talking bout art and real cinema or whatever.

Made some of the most superficial shit period. It was great cinema, but superficial nonetheless.

MCU movies are visual junk food. The god scorcese is right.

How many MCU movies are on a cinema level of a Dune 2? Couldn’t be more than 2. MCU movies are definitely in the realm of Jurassic Park/Fast & Furious/etc. And it’s nothing wrong with that.

I disagree with that. People liked the dinosaurs more than the humans in Jurassic Park. Fast and Furious went from racing cars to Mission Impossible

What people like about Jurassic Park and what FF has turn into isn’t the point. I’m going off G-Dog’s point that 90-95% of the MCU and all comic book movies are visual junk food like the previous mentioned movie franchises. And again it’s nothing wrong with that. People love junk food. These movies are “theme parks” like Scorsese said. Thats why they make the money they make. I’m pretty sure a great deal of Hollywood feels the same. Numerous actors who worked in the MCU has said the same. It’s a bag. It’s needed. It’s fuels the movie industry.
