Bong Joon-ho says he'll never direct a Marvel movie: "I can't stand people wearing tight-fitting clothes"
In the exhausting ongoing debate over the value (or lack thereof) of Marvel movies, one man has emerged as the voice of reason: Parasite director Bong Joon-ho. The South Korean filmmaker behind one of the best films of the year has broken his silence on the senseless controversy that is threatening to destroy the very delicate fabric of Film Twitter’s reality. During an in-depth interview with Variety, Director Bong was asked to weigh-in on Martin Scorsese’s comments about Marvel movies, and he offered perhaps the best and most reasonable response yet. “I have so much respect for Scorsese and Coppola, and I grew up studying their films,” said Director Bong. “So I fully understand the context of their comments and I respect their opinion.” However, he went on to note that he’s an admirer of films like Guardians Of The Galaxy and Logan, which have “great cinematic moments.”
