NATHANIEL R in Directors, Martin Scorsese, Marvel Studios, Parasite, Regina King, Twitter

 All anybody on twitter has been talking about of late is Martin Scorsese vs Marvel (which was very funny until it was sad but some good tweets came of it) but before we get to the auteurs vs the "oppressed" corporate product (lol) some Parasite enthusiasm and other random topics...

The best sexts I’ve ever gotten are friends sending me #Parasite raves after they leave the theater

TERMINATOR DARK FATE not giving us an ass shot of Gabriel Luna (the first time traveller not to get one in the franchise) is homophobia. pic.twitter.com/5bR2hgcxGl

Dear Filmmakers, Please. I beg of you. Stop making your Awards films so darn long. Us film critics are going hungry & dehydrated, all for the sacrifice of doing our jobs properly. Love, this starving, thirsty & sleepy critic

Never forget that even though she fell to her death the Ice Princess in BATMAN RETURNS still managed to do her damn job on the way out—she still lit that Gotham Christmas tree, dammit. A real pro.#WaybackWednesday #batmanreturns pic.twitter.com/mo83vJvniB

Tired: Marvel movies aren't cinema

Wired: Marvel movies need to be sexier

Ken Loach, who is EIGHTY FUCKING THREE, just made a film about the gig economy & zero hour contracts. He is a bigger hero than Captain America. He is literally using his art to fight for you. If your response to his opinion is to bag him out, you've been fucking brainwashed.

Assuming Martin Scorsese, whose World Cinema Project is preserving and restoring underseen masterpieces by directors of color, is racist for not liking Marvel, which has had 22 out of 23 films so far centered on white people, is certainly A Take

Nothing that any director has said about a Marvel movie is nearly as mean as Gwyneth Paltrow's refusal to remember which ones she's in.
