CoolioD1 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 (edited) someone should do an edit of Godfather so it's Kevin Feige christening Ant Man 3 a billion dollar hit or whatever while Scorsese, Coppola, james cameron are being gunned down by tom holland stan accounts.

infamous5445 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Which GOAT of film making will be next to bash Marvel movies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alli Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 If you've seen one, you've seen them all... I have not read the article. Are Marty and Copolla only referring to Marvel movies or all comic book movies and they singled out Marvel because they are the most successful? Wasnt Scorsese supposed to be a producer on the new Joker movie? Is he blasting all comic book movies, including Nolan's batman? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nero Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 (edited) I think people should just let it go. It's a opinion of what bunch of people's. Does it really matter to you? Also superhero have been popular in US and they are idolised and are icons the directors who are making these marvel movies are just trying to accomplish what comics did. These movies are not cinema , these are same old movies repeated we get it , but they are enjoyable nonetheless. The most important thing if only what these bunch of people who "Make real cinema" how many people would watch their movies? How many people would be entertained? Movies essentially are made for the Entertainment and enjoyment!!!! You know most of the General audience doesn't even care for this stupid stuff. So just ignore it guys.

This isn’t by all means an ageist comment, but this is mostly a battle of generations thing. Of course that old timers back when films like Star Wars, Superman and even Batman ‘89 were released didn’t think those films were cinema. Eventually, virtual reality films will be a thing, and people of our generation will say that that isn’t cinema either. I don’t take Scorcese or Coppola’s opinions seriously when it comes to this subject because anyone in good faith can tell that they are hilariously wrong, so when I see people seriously arguing about this I just roll my eyes and move on. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also aware of The Godfather’s box office prowess back then, but my 2 cents on this whole "thing" is right above. The world has changed. Cinema has changed, and it will keep changing and evolving. And that’s a good thing. This is no different than old timers claiming that the current music landscape is not music, which is hilariously wrong.

lorddemaxus Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 A lot of people seem to be missing their points that Coppola and Scorcese are pissed not because Marvel is making money but because they are (as in blockbuster films as a whole) are pushing smaller films out. And anyone who thinks that they are only speaking about Marvel is probably just thick as hell. I guess people are only whining cuz its Marvel. But only if people here watched the films Scorcese and Coppola are trying to defend. 9 minutes ago, Zatt was right said: The Mighty Thor has spoken, and I see no lies. Worthy Portmandaughter is. Yeah, Portman is gonna criticise Marvel when she's starring in a Marvel film. But she's right, there's room for all types of cinema. The problem is blockbusters are taking too much space, especially with how many theaters they are getting. Like I'm sure the top 2 of this weekend would have made the same amount of money with a lower theater count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdsacken Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 See the thing is if you say Marvel sucks and is not cinema then the original superman is trash, Batman is basically dlist, Batman Begins and TDKR suck, and Spiderman 1/2 are horrible. I disagree I love all of those and Wonderwoman and Aquaman. Are they for everyone? God no but nor is the god father. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breaking the mold and evolving is what cinema has been doing since the old black and white silent films. People too attached to nostalgia get bitter at that, but that will never stop cinema from evolving, old geniuses liking that idea or not.

Alli Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Scorsese mad there's no space in the cinema for his movie and he was forced to go to Netflix. What is Coppola doing these days? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGlass2 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Quote Marvel is the biggest brand in the history of Hollywood. It has produced the highest grossing film of all time, an Academy Award nominee for best picture, and achieved many other feats. This is so impressive after 25 movies.

lorddemaxus Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Just now, Zatt was right said: Evolution is evolution. Breaking the mold and evolving is what cinemas has been doing since the old black and white silent films. People too attached to nostalgia get bitter at that, but that will never stop cinema from evolving, old geniuses liking that idea or not. But blockbusters films taking up more screens and making up more marketshare isn't evolution. Most of the evolution in cinema has happened in terms of the way we watch movies and the technical side of things (mostly film equipment). I really don't get your evolution point. Change doesnt mean evolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
