Segura noted Marvel movies often feel like a “carbon copy” of previous MCU films, adding “you’re never taken somewhere you don’t expect.”

“My only axe to grind is they’re the only things that seem to be made,” Tarantino said. “And they’re the only things that seem to generate any kind of excitement amongst a fan base or even for the studio making them … So it’s just the fact that they are the entire representation of this era of movies right now. There’s not really much room for anything else.“Part of the Marvel-ization of Hollywood is you have all these actors who have become famous playing these characters,” he added.

We want to see that guy [keep] playing Wolverine or whatever.
