The longtime actor and director simply shared his “axe to grind” in opposition to Marvel flicks — and it seems he is not a very huge fan.
“I do not love them. No, I do not — I do not hate them. However I do not love them,” Quentin mentioned throughout an look on the 2 Bears, 1 Cave podcast.
Whereas he admits he in all probability can be “fucking completely happy and completely love them” in his 20s, these days, he is “not fairly as excited” about them.
“My solely axe to grind in opposition to them is that they’re the one issues that appear to be made,” he defined.
Quentin continued, “And so they’re the one issues that appear to generate any sort of pleasure amongst a fanbase and even for the studio making them. That’s what they’re enthusiastic about.”
He famous that his predominant points is that Marvel flicks appear to be the “whole illustration of this period of films” and that there is merely “probably not a lot room for the rest.”
On high of that, Quentin says he believes Marvel motion pictures are the rationale that there are no film stars anymore as a result of most individuals are going to the theater to see a superhero, not an actor.
“A part of the Marvel-ization of Hollywood is you have got all these actors who’ve change into well-known taking part in these characters,” Quentin mentioned. “However they’re not film stars. Proper? Captain America is the star. Or, Thor is the star.”
Whereas he says he is not attempting to rag on the movies, Quentin admits that it’s the “franchise characters that change into a star,” not the actors.
“However that’s…the legacy of the Marvel-ization of Hollywood motion pictures,” Quentin concluded.
