Scott Mendelson: "It's a damn shame that the MCU has come to represent the root of all evil in the theatrical movie industry"

It's a damn shame that the MCU has come to represent the root of all evil in the theatrical movie industry, because they really are, on the whole, better than most of what we once considered "blockbuster fantasy action movies" that came before and after.https://twitter.com/ScottMendelson/status/1438612159240409100?s=20Watch BATTLESHIP & PRINCE OF PERSIA to see why Marvel "won" the blockbuster arms race. The "problem" is that MCU's rise correlated w/ audiences seeking out far fewer non-tentpole movies in multiplexes. Marvel became the best at the only thing (most) audiences wanted in theaters.https://twitter.com/ScottMendelson/status/1438612162293862416?s=20 via /r/movies https://ift.tt/3CwhvPk
