Post Martin Scorsese’s Criticism, Filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola Calls Marvel Films ‘Despicable’

Marvel Cinematic Universe has an enormous fan following all over the world. This year, MCU’s film Avengers: Endgame turned out to be one of the blockbusters in the world. A few days ago, Martin Scorsese criticised Marvel films. Now, filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola thinks Marvel films are despicable.

In an interview with Yahoo News, he said, “When Martin Scorsese says that the Marvel pictures are not cinema, he’s right because we expect to learn something from cinema, we expect to gain something, some enlightenment, some knowledge, some inspiration… I don’t know that anyone gets anything out of seeing the same movie over and over again.”

The veteran filmmaker added, “Martin was kind when he said it’s not cinema. He didn’t say it’s despicable, which I just say it is.”
