I’ve seen all of those movies except “Joker” and they’re largely drivel, certainly of lower aesthetic and intellectual value than the films Scorsese cites. And I’m a huge comic book fan and illustrator. These movies are primarily IP cash-ins on work stolen from writers and artists through shady work-for-hire deals and other predatory arrangements.

- devnulloverflow 7y ago> shady work-for-hire deals Is that the kind of deal where you work for an employer and they pay you? Kind of like the deal most software engineers take.
- mindslight 7y agoNo... more like you go work for an employer, and they lay claim to all of the existing code you've written on your own.
- diminoten 7y agoThis reads like it was written by someone who has never had something they've created criticized at any real level... Edit: Since I'm rate limited, my point is that his is an unexamined dismissal of someone else's creative effort that only comes from never having your own work glibly dismissed out of hand.
- catalogia 7y agoIs your point that he shouldn't criticize anything unless he can do better, or that he shouldn't criticize something because it might hurt the feelings of the creator?
