Quentin Tarantino recently appeared on The Howard Stern Show, wherein he opened up about Martin Scorsese's controversial comments on Marvel movies. The Pulp Fiction director mentioned that Scorsese wouldn't be interested in superhero movies, saying,

''He's an old man. You think Scorsese's gonna be into Ant-Man vs the Wasp?''

During the interview, Tarantino also spoke about his love for comics and explained why he thinks Scorsese would not like superhero films. Back in 2019, Martin Scorsese said during an interview with Empire Magazine that he doesn't think Marvel movies are ''cinema.'' He further went on to compare them with theme parks, saying,

''I don’t see them. I tried, you know? But that’s not cinema. Honestly, the closest I can think of them, as well made as they are, with actors doing the best they can under the circumstances, is theme parks. It isn’t the cinema of human beings trying to convey emotional, psychological experiences to another human being.''

When Howard Stern asked Quentin Tarantino what he made of Martin Scorsese's comments on Marvel movies, the director said that Scorsese is ''an old man'' and won't be interested in superhero movies. He said,

''I don't think he would have been into that at 37, forget about however f***ing old he is now, alright? That's just not his thing.''

Tarantino then spoke at length about his love for Marvel comic books and said that he'd have been excited about the superhero movies if they came out in 1986.

The acclaimed director also spoke about the use of special effects in cinema. He said that he doesn't typically use them in his film but mentioned that if he thinks the movie demands special effects, he would add them.

During the same interview, Quentin Tarantino said that Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is his best movie. The movie, set in the 60s, tells the story of an actor and his stunt double. It features many storylines and references to iconic pop culture moments from the 60s.

The film features Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, and Margot Robbie, among many others, in major roles. It was a huge commercial success and received widespread critical acclaim, with some critics rating it as one of the best movies of 2019.
