You say that like Cameron’s benign opinion on Avengers films didn’t see him roasted non-stop by Marvel fans - even at a time when he was trying to congratulate Marvel.

it is so tempting to just post ‘ok boomer’. Like, we get it man, you don’t like Marvel movies, thats fine.
In closing, the art of cinema is a shared experience. When the lights dim, we are transported to a world where anything is possible, no dream is ever out of reach, and our collective unconscious is governed by four simple words that are destined to shape the silver screen for decades to come:
CAPCOM PRESENTS....MARVEL COMICS.
CAPCOM PRESENTS....MARVEL COMICS.
Hitchcock's favorite films were Smokey and the Bandit and Benji.
It'll be interesting to see what the future of hollywood is like. With Capitalism, industries will buy or merge with one another. Hollywood is no different. I wonder how long til there's only one or two big studios left vying for mind share.
Why is it tempting to respond to a well written and cogent argument with an ageist retort?
For you are anyone else who does not have a subscription, if you are on a laptop (i have to imagine this also works on a smartphone although I have never tried it), manually select a few words with your cursor, then do a Select All, Copy, open up your favorite text editor, and Paste.
There will be a lot of extra weird text and a ton of formatting issues, but it will be easy enough to get to the article text which should be formatted properly and easy to read.
EDIT - I should add I am on Chrome. Cannot say if it works for other browsers, but it does work on it.
What does he think about the Last Jedi
Let's see how far this train goes
Right? I mean, goddamn, what a fucking fragile ego he must have if he is THIS butthurt that a bunch of dweebs on the internet disagreed with him over comic films...
While this could be said for much of the Marvel formula, I don't think this is true for the entire franchise.
I think this does a disservice to Feige and some of the stand out individual Marvel movies.
I get what he's saying, but I would LOVE to have an interview with him back in the 60s, 80s and early 2000s and see what he thinks isn't cinema and if his views have shifted. I also think people are being defensive on Marvel and not really seeing where he's coming from.
