Martin Scorsese Explains Why He Keeps Dragging Marvel Movies
Guess what? He still doesn’t like them! Martin Scorsese hates them so much, he wrote a lengthy op-ed for The New York Times about it. Marty is like The Hulk; except in this case, he’s smashing the keys on his keyboard while screaming, “Aaahhhhhh this is not film!” Whether or not he was sitting at his computer shirtless in a pair of ripped-up jean shorts is still to be determined.
Martin Scorsese Continued His Crusade Against Superhero Movies
Founding member of the high school Foreign Film Society and captain of the chess team, Martin Scorsese, is still trying to get a rise out of the dumb jock prom king, Marvel, who continues to be the more popular, if less likely to go to Harvard on a scholarship (mostly because it’ll probably get in as a legacy). Not long ago, Marty, who is doing press for his sure to be Oscar nominated film The Irishman, proclaimed that Marvel’s superhero movies are “not cinema”, and likened them to “theme parks”. And I guess since Marvel didn’t just throw in the towel immediately and start researching “jobs for jocks who can’t reed gud”, Marty doubled down on his criticism.
Marvel Movies Aren’t Cinema, According To Martin Scorcese
In an interview with Empire (via The Guardian), venerable director Martin Scorcese decried Marvel movies as not being “cinema.” Scorcese has the résumé to be snotty about movies but he obviously missed the deep symbolism in movies like Ant-Man. Past and present Marvel directors like Joss Whedon and James Gunn were unhappy with Marty’s pissing on their work. Impeachment inquiry what?
Kit Harrington Is Joining The Marvel Cinematic Universe
UPDATE: It was announced yesterday that Kit will be playing “Dane Whitman” in Marvel’s upcoming Eternals movie starring Angelina Jolie, Richard Madden and Salma Hayek. Dane’s normally a hero called The Black Knight so look for swords and not Wolverine claws.
Even you horny hos who hate superhero movies probably aren’t going to turn your boners (lady or otherwise) up at Jon Snow in a lycra bodysuit. Deadline reports that Game of Thrones star Kit Harrington is going to be in an upcoming Marvel movie. Which character he’s playing hasn’t been specified yet but chances are it’s not Spider-Man.
Stan Lee’s Daughter Is Siding With Sony In The “Spider-Man” Debacle
Stan Lee‘s daughter apparently has some words about this whole Spider-Man thing going on. Now that Sony and Marvel are in a pissing match about who can make more money off of a narrative universe that neither of them are even remotely responsible for creating, Joan Celia Lee (called JC because no one wants to be called Joan Celia) has decided to raise her hand with an opinion. I mean, she’s the daughter of the great Stan Lee who actually was responsible for the creation of the character of Spider-Man–so she must have insight, right? Well… maybe… maybe not.
