She isn’t calling the MCU “bad.” She’s calling the current phase bad. Not exactly a hot take, I think a lot of the fans would agree that post Endgame has been very hit and miss. She doesn’t need to apologize for this. I will be glad to take an apology from her about the Borderlands film and her role in it, though.

They literally say it in the most recent MCU movie. 😂
Yeah. I doubt very much Borderlands will be good, but I’ve been wrong before.
If a trailer is supposed to sell it, it’s gonna flop hard. Cause the trailer didn’t make it look good.
It looks like it was made by someone who has not played even a single Borderlands game before.
Even if she was the only person in the world thinking this she shouldn’t have to apologise for her opinion. It’s not as if she insulted individuals or something.

When Martin Scorsese said “Marvel Movies Aren’t Cinema.” He’s right. Yes, it’s a motion picture, and it’s entertainment. But superhero movies are a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, but in the end signifying nothing. They have plastic, unrelateable characters that are there solely to be cheered and booed with some pseudoscientific mysterious nonsense that stands in for the gods and devils of mythology. If CG wasn’t used to produce mind-numbing effects, the movies would look ridiculous and absurd. At least some older movies (like Superman I and II in the '70s) had Superman learn about the limits of his power and his ability to be a hero.
The same problem is with Star Trek. The TOS, TNG, DS9, and VOY were about the characters and ideas. If the story is too tied up in the treknobabble or speculative technology, it becomes boring. It’s about working together and growing from experience. Once it became about battles, speculative technology, petty squabbles and soap opera dynamics between characters, it became boring and unexceptional, just another expensive mediocre spectacle.
Scorsese is wrong. Bad art is still art.
He didn’t say the MCU is not art.
“Cinema” is what movie snobs call movies that achieve a certain level of snootiness that the snobs consider “art”. By saying the MCU isn’t cinema he’s saying the mcu isn’t art. He is incorrect. Their quality is debatable, but they qualify as art simply by being movies.
Where do you get that from?
