Samuel L Jackson who essayed Nick Fury in The Avengers hits back at Martin Scorsese who called the superhero franchise 'theme park'

Samuel l. Jackson
Martin Scorsese received flak for comparing Marvel's successful superhero films to "theme parks", suggesting that they fail to capture the true essence of cinema. His comments didn't go down well with those associated with the projects. After Marvel filmmakers James Gunn and Joss Whedon, actor Samuel L Jackson, has broken his silence on the matter.
Not mincing his words, Jackson pointed out that not everyone happens to be a fan of Scorsese's films either. "I mean, that's like saying Bugs Bunny ain't funny. Films are films. Everybody doesn't like his stuff either. I mean, we happen to, but everybody doesn't," Jackson said at the grand opening of Tyler Perry's new studio in Atlanta. "Everybody's got an opinion, so, it's okay. Ain't going to stop nobody from making movies."
