The Goodfellas helmer thinks Barbenheimer was great.
Although Martin Scorsese continues to be outspoken in his distaste for Marvel movies, the auteur—as it turns out—is a fan of the cultural phenomenon known as Barbenheimer. According to the Wolf of Wall Street helmer, the dual release of Barbie and Oppenheimer earlier this summer was"something special" for box offices and movie-goers alike.
"The way it fit perfectly – a film with such entertainment value, purely with the bright colors – and a film with such severity and strength, and pretty much about the danger of the end to our civilization – you couldn't have more opposite films to work together," he added."It does offer some hope for a different cinema to emerge, different from what's been happening in the last 20 years, aside from the great work being done in independent cinema.
What'd Martin Scorsese say about Marvel?Doubling down on his previous comments about Marvel movies not being"cinema," Scorsese said last month that the films are nothing more than content.
