Marvel star Chris Hemsworth has responded to those critiques of superhero movies from legendary directors like Ma🙈rtin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola.

"It felt harsh, and it bothers me, especially from heroes. It was an eye-roll for me, people bashing the superhero space," Hemsworth told . "T𓃲hose guys had films that didn't work too - we all have. When they talked about what was wrong with superheroes, I thought, cool, tell that to the billions who watch them. Were they all wrong?"

Marvel movies as "prototypes made over and over and over again to look different," with

Continued Hemsworth: "And, cinema-going did not change because of superheroes, but because of smartonones and social medla. Superhero films🌳 actually kept people in the cinemas during that transition and now people are coming back. So they deserve a little more appreciation."

Hemsworth played Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe for over 10 years, beginning in 2011. The Nordic hero was given three standalone films, and appeared in every Avengers film as a core member. 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Thor: Love and Thunder, the last film in the trilogy, was deemed by so𒆙me critics as the silliest of the 𒁏three.
