Director John Landis (best known for the likes of National Lampoon’s Animal House and The Blues Brothers) was recently put on the spot to give his thoughts on the current state of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and he did not hold back on his true feelings.

“I’m just… truthfully, I’m bored shitless with the Marvel Universe now,” Landis told entertainment.ie. “All the superhero movies tend to be interchangeable, you always have these mass destruction of cities and huge computer-generated extravaganzas to the point where you could take a reel from any of the Marvel superhero movies and put it any of the others and nobody would notice. They’re very well-made, it’s just they’re the same thing over and over again. But, I don’t know, people are showing up. One of the reasons Wonder Woman has been received so well by the critics is that it doesn’t destroy cities! (laughs) Even the superhero stuff is on a very human scale, it’s the gods! We’re not seeing skyscrapers tumbling! (laughs).”
