Quentin Tarantino shared a few thoughts on Marvel movies recently, and those comments were bound to spark some responses. Now Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings star Simu Liu has made it clear that he didn’t take kindly to Tarantino's opinions.Over the past couple of weeks, Tarantino has voiced some of his views on the current state of cinema and what he calls the Marvel-ization of Hollywood, with his latest hot take being that Marvel actors aren’t real movie stars, instead believing it’s the comic book characters who get all the attention. That, combined with his assertion that he’d never direct a Marvel Studios film or that Hollywood is currently in its worst era, are just some views Liu had to call out.That’s why Liu took to Twitter to call Tarantino's opinion a form of “gatekeeping,” expressing his admiration for both the director’s work and that of fellow Marvel critic Martin Scorsese. However, Liu believes Tarantino and Scorsese don’t get to be so self-righteous. While admitting Marvel Studios is far from perfect, Liu expressed his satisfaction in working for a company that “has made sustained efforts to improve diversity onscreen." He also criticized Tarantino's golden age of Hollywood for being “white as hell.”[EMBED_TWITTER]https://twitter.com/SimuLiu/status/1595126266780274688?s=20&t=H74w_6M4mV5s2o4iItNhRw[/EMBED_TWITTER]Liu's statement quickly gained traction on Twitter with over 74,000 likes. However, just like Scorsese and Tarantino, his position wasn’t exactly met with universal praise, as many users pointed out these two directors, in particular, have made great strides in terms of representation, with the latter's 9 films having more non-white protagonists and female leads than the entire MCU. Shang-Chi certainly helped Liu become a better-known face in Hollywood, so it seems he and Tarantino will have to accept each other’s opinions.While it is true Marvel films have embraced a more diverse cast all across the board, especially over the last couple of years, the MCU and Disney are not blameless when it comes to perpetuating that “white as hell” image, as the company has faced backlash in the past. The way Disney marketed Black Panther in China and the casting of white actress Tilda Swinton as The Ancient One, a typically Asian role, are just two examples. In Scorsese's case, not only did he make the all-Tibetan cast film Kundun in 1997, the director created the World Cinema Project, a non-profit whose sole goal is to preserve and promote underexposed movies from all across the world.Liu is never afraid to speak his mind, and he is unlikely to be the only Marvel actor to take issue with Tarantino's comments. Perhaps in the future, it might be wiser to pick a couple of better targets.Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is available on Disney Plus.Source: Simu Liu | Twitter
