Why not both? Many film fans will be asking this question after Martin Scorsese has commented on the state of modern cinema. The director is calling for fans to ‘fight back’ against blockbuster franchises and instead support people like Christopher Nolan.
It’s an odd comment given that many who would listen to Scorsese are likely fans of cinema generally and would opt to watch both the latest Marvel blockbuster, as well as films likeOppenheimer. It’s unlikely that a die-hard Marvel fan who only watches the latest release would even lend ears to Scorsese’s latest remark.

While urging fans of cinema to ‘fight back’, theGoodfellasdirector also stated that ‘manufactured content’ wasn’t cinema. While he might have a point in use of the term ‘content’ to suggest that superhero films are an act of checking off a list of tropes, all film in some way is manufactured. Unless you go right down to true indie cinema made on minuscule budgets.
Again… why not both?
