Coincidence that Joker is basically a 2019 Taxi Driver/King Of Comedy? Scorsese was actually involved with that film at one point, and its clearly one of those exceptions that prove the rule.

They are literally films based on comic books...art...

At this point it becomes an argument about semantics. I mean 'art' as a pure (or relatively pure) creative expression as opposed to a tacky money grubbing exercise.
There's a difference between the way a comic book is written and the way a studio movie is written. Even so, superhero comic are a formulaic starting point and are pretty adolescent in tone.

I will admit that the Batman movies are the exception...

There's a difference between the way horror and comedy is written, same with drama or sci-fi...and for them to be so adolescent in tone, they ain't just making money off kids when the source material from some of this stuff dates back to the 1930's and some of the genre defining films are rated R/not geared specifically toward children. Not every adult at these movies is dragging a 10 year old behind them.
Look who rode in on a high horse
There's art in big budget, blockbuster movies. Like any movie in any genre it depends on how well it's done and the care put into it. There's "high art" movies that suck so do they deserve to be valued more than a great spectacle? There's action movies with incredible fight choreography and that's art. The T Rex scene in the first Jurassic Park is art. Get Out is art. T2 is Art. Winter Soldier is art. The Raid is art.
There's different levels depending on the ability of the artist creating the product but it's all art.
Directors are not interchangable on a big budget movie. You want proof of that just ask them Coli DC boys about Snyder vs Whedon
. Why is everyone mad at Rian Johnson?Never knew there were so many pretentious people in here
Also, I don't think he's worried about anything. He was asked about them in an interview and he gave his honest opinion.
Again:
“We have to fight back at this practice of overwhelming the market with the blockbuster. The – how should I put it? – the regular film, that’s being edged out,” he said. “It has to go someplace because you know why? There are people that are going to continue to make them.”
The 76-year-old, who has not had a film financed by a major studio in 10 years, will also release his much-anticipated, $125 million (£98.6 million) mafia epic The Irishman in the fall after the streaming giant was the only studio prepared to finance it.
“No one else (wanted to finance it). No one else did,” he insisted. “We decided to make it with the understanding that it’ll maybe never be shown in theatres. They said, ‘You would have a time in theatres’ – a few weeks or whatever. I said fine.
Martin Scorsese: 'The blockbuster is edging out regular films'
You have one of the greatest film makers of all time, who can't get his movie made at any major studio being forced to take his sweet sweet cinema to Netflix conceding to the fact that it might have extremely limited theater showing if at all.
Sounds like he's plenty aggravated, even worried about the prospect that movie studios aren't going to hand people 175 million dollars (bigger budget than some of the most successful MCU films) for an art piece that ain't gonna bring in billions of dollars in return.
But yeah...just an off hand opinion, not him 'fighting back' or campaigning against anything.
