This man makes movies for people who don't like movies. Scorsese was right and will always be right.

Kevin Feige has such a shitty understanding of cinema, he forgot what cameras can do

Dude is gonna lose his mind when he finds out some of the effects on Doctor Strange 2 are practical XD
Can you explain the marvel style cinematography?
They definitely look/feel similar, but I don't really have the background to articulate/understand it.
I was wondering how absurd the ERA headline for this quote was going to be, and you exceeded my expectations. Congrats.
MCU properties have very little cinematographic flair not generated in a CGI studio. Chloe Zhao is way too good to be producing marvel dreck. Glad she's getting paid to do good work tho
This is exactly what I got out of it. He's trying to pitch to higher-ups about the value of shooting on-location and taking advantage of natural beauty.
This seems less damning of Feige than the fact that there's apparently a bunch of people he has to explain this to who apparently don't believe it
That's sorta my read on it. There may have been push back from execs about shooting on location rather than just green screening everything, and he wanted to emphasize the beauty you get when using nature.
Or he's got green screen brain damage.
Either way, the mocking tone of those tweets doesn't sit well with me.
This is such a weird "I saw a tweet and rushed here to mock it" thread. He's basically just praising practical cinematography, which isn't something you get a lot of in huge blockbusters that will often CGI in mountains and mist and whatever.
Personally I read it as Feige being the one in the room who needed to keep saying it cause the other execs weren't getting it.
When alone, Scorsese dresses up as superheroes and cries, wishing her could be loved the same way the MCU is.
Sounds less like he's dumbfounded by a camera and more that he's impressed with Zhao's eye and talent.
Yes, a camera can capture amazing images, but there's also something to be said for having the talent to actually use it wisely. God knows we, as a society, take more photos per minute now than entire decades past, but that does NOT mean they're anywhere close to actually impressive. I've seen some damned good photographers and cinematographers though and it's not just "point and shoot" and it's also not the equipment.

OP's obvious joke isn't going to go well for a certain group lol.
But I understand what he was saying... it can be amazing what you can capture on camera that looks like CG.

I mean is this at all shocking? He's a producer not a film maker, I see him more as an executive.
Yeah, it's such a shame that she got a blank check to do something completely wild outside the usual restrictions of the MCU - and it sucks that it's going to be seen by hundreds of millions of people who will be exposed to her style, and might be similarly inspired.
Completely sucks that she will basically have a guaranteed path to financing for literally anything she wants to do for the rest of her career. Just such a waste.
Yeah this is the only curious part... he didn't know their signature style before hand?
No, they must be reminded every time they are the lesser and what they enjoy is trash and is made by trash people dammit!
😁
Imagine taking a comment from someone and forcing the dumbest possible interpretation of it not because it makes sense, but because you have sacrificed your sensibility in exchange of fandom.
Uhh, I don't think the Feige quote tracks with the thread title/premise.
He was fully aware of cinematography and it was other execs he was pitching it too, like, the opposite of what's being presented here?
