The two MCU stars hit back at Scorsese’s criticism (via toofab)
"Films are films," Jackson said. "Everybody doesn't like his stuff either." But he was also gracious, allowing that "everybody's got an opinion" and that it "ain't going to stop nobody from making movies."
Obviously, the MCU continues to truck along, looking at wrapping up its most successful year yet with all three of its major releases breaking the $1 billion mark. Even if they were just "theme parks" on the big screen, Disney would keep churning them out. They do know a thing or two about successful theme parks, as well.
The Oscar-winner responsible for films such as "The Departed," "Taxi Driver," "Goodfellas" and "The Wolf of Wall Street" came under the scorn of Marvel fans after his comments about the beloved franchise went public, but for Gunn, the part of Scorsese's criticism that stung the hardest was that he appeared to be making these assertions without having seen the films.
"Martin Scorsese is one of my 5 favorite living filmmakers," he tweeted. "I was outraged when people picketed 'The Last Temptation of Christ' without having seen the film. I'm saddened that he's now judging my films in the same way.""I'm not saying religious zealotry is the same as not liking my movies, or in the same category," Gunn continued.
"I first think of @JamesGunn, how his heart & guts are packed into GOTG," he said. "I revere Marty, & I do see his point, but... Well there's a reason why 'I'm always angry.'"
