Simon Pegg: "Comic Book Movies are kind of dumbing down Cinema"

Quote :

Simon Pegg pulled no punches when said that the recent slate of comic book movies are “kind of dumbing down” cinema.

“Because it’s taking our focus away from real-world issues. Films used to be about challenging, emotional journeys or moral questions that might make you walk away and re-evaluate how you felt about… whatever,” Pegg told the Radio Times. “Now we’re walking out of the cinema really not thinking about anything, other than the fact that the Hulk just had a fight with a robot.”
The actor, known for his roles in the “Star Trek” franchise and cult hits like “Shaun of the Dead,” also said in the interview that movies used to have a more artistic bent.

He just mad because his friend didn't direct the comic book movie he had been working on for years.

- "I don't think comic book movies are that good."

- "You're just butthurt!"

- Mecha-logic.

Anyway... I'm still looking forward to Suicide Squad and Batman V Superman. Here's to hoping they'll reach my expectations.

More like Marvel is dumbing down cinema if anything. =/

At least DC movies try to be a little deeper.
