    Marty said this s*** almost 2 years ago and it's still living rent free in these people's minds. Gunn is legitimately delusional if he believes what he's saying in that quote lmao

    “Here's the thing, I make movies so people can reflect on them. And you actually watch it. Go to the barber shop, you see them watching it. You know, go to the movies, and tickets sold out. It's playing everywhere—it's called great film. It's called movies that actually have real passion. Not no amusement park s***” -Scorsese

    real nigga s*** if he actually said that

    Nah, I get what he was trying to say. That marvel keeps churning out formulaic movies, treating the whole thing more like a business / no real artistry / etc etc.

    But still, he's competely discrediting the audience's value. He basically asserts these movies are meritless from an egocentric perspective. There are tons of ppl who have found profound meaning in them - and to flat out deny this is what I'd call pretentiousness, and completely contradictory to what "art" should stand for.

    Yeah that's a good way to put it I agree

    Also, Gunn is feeling himself since TSS is getting rave reviews, GOTG3 is around the corner, Peacemaker is coming to HBO Max, and he may be developing future DC projects. Don’t blame him tbh

    there is truth to his comments tho. Like Marty got wayy more press from the Marvel stuff than anything related to the actual film he was promoting.

    But the quote frames it like he intentionally said those things for press, which I don't see him doing.

    Like dawg I love guardians of the galaxy series but nothing gunn has done comes close to touching martins classics.

    If you're not on Scorsese's side I don't know what to tell you, dude is a top contender of for greatest living filmmaker, has more classics than most directors have 'good' movies, if you're siding with a multi-billion dollar corporation over one of the most consistently great artists of an entire medium then we're literally not speaking the same language

    Not to mention all he's done for film preservation and bringing world cinema to a wider audience, Scorsese is a net good for the industry in so many ways, all Marvel does is put money into Disney's pockets and make distinctive directors produce broadly similar product, every movie's a cog in the franchise machine

    Wow, I never knew anything about this guy besides he's in the MCU. He just gained me as a fan though, he's real as hell for this

    Just because he’s a GOAT in his field doesn’t mean you have to agree with every take or opinion he has.
