This man makes movies for people who don't like movies. Scorsese was right and will always be right.
I like movies that Fiege makes.
Hooray, another gatekeeper thread.
I agree Marvel films should allow directors to break out of the "marvel style" though, in terms of cinematography. VFX is super helpful, but can also make directors lazy.
Can you explain the marvel style cinematography?I agree Marvel films should allow directors to break out of the "marvel style" though, in terms of cinematography.
This is exactly what I got out of it. He's trying to pitch to higher-ups about the value of shooting on-location and taking advantage of natural beauty.That reads like it's Feige explaining to Disney higher-ups that some shots that may be assumed to be VFX were real location photography.
That's sorta my read on it. There may have been push back from execs about shooting on location rather than just green screening everything, and he wanted to emphasize the beauty you get when using nature.Vfx can make things look perfect and pretty up imperfections. Yes it makes directors lazy.
I feel like he is just admiring the beauty of what can be captured on film without vfx
MCU properties have very little cinematographic flair not generated in a CGI studio. Chloe Zhao is way too good to be producing marvel dreck. Glad she's getting paid to do good work tho
Zhao — a fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the comics from which it originates — approached the company herself.
Personally I read it as Feige being the one in the room who needed to keep saying it cause the other execs weren't getting it.Trying to impress execs by impressing upon them that it's all real is corny but kinda whatever given, well, execs. the real thing is him not realising the director he hired to work for him had a "signature style"
Yeah, it's such a shame that she got a blank check to do something completely wild outside the usual restrictions of the MCU - and it sucks that it's going to be seen by hundreds of millions of people who will be exposed to her style, and might be similarly inspired.MCU properties have very little cinematographic flair not generated in a CGI studio.

Yeah this is the only curious part... he didn't know their signature style before hand?Trying to impress execs by impressing upon them that it's all real is corny but kinda whatever given, well, execs. the real thing is him not realising the director he hired to work for him had a "signature style"
No, they must be reminded every time they are the lesser and what they enjoy is trash and is made by trash people dammit!
OP's obvious joke isn't going to go well for a certain group lol.
But I understand what he was saying... it can be amazing what you can capture on camera that looks like CG.
The MCU being a boring sexless universe is one of the primary reasons it's uninteresting. It's a prudish conservative nightmare.
