Filmmakers Pushback On Denis Villeneuve’s “Cut & Paste” Criticism About Marvel Movies
Yesterday, comments made by “Dune” director Denis Villeneuve in separate interviews about Marvel Studios movies and his criticism about them sparked many emotions, outrage, and blowback online. In interviews with international media, the French-Canadian filmmaker said that the popular and profitable superhero movies are very similar, essentially cutting and pasting from other, presumably more superior, films (it should be noted, many people online often complain that journalists prompt these questions, but Villeneuve brought up Marvel himself in at least one of these interviews).
