Stephen Dorffis not afraid to speak out negatively about modern superhero movies.
In a recent interview withThe Daily Beastat theSundance Film Festival, Dorff, 49, said most modern mainstream movies are “all stupid to me” when asked if he finds it difficult to find roles like in his new filmDivinity.
“I think film festivals are, in a way, kind of silly, with the exception of, it brings filmmakers and people together and gets an audience to see your movie and you can launch it and sell it there,” Dorff said. “But in general, most of the movies are selling to streamers anyway, so it’s not really about cinema.”
Dorff noted that he thinks major film studios should “look for the next [Divinitydirector] Eddie Alcazar, because that’s the future.”
“Not makingBlack Adamand worthless garbage over and over again,” he added to the outlet.

“But all this other garbage is just embarrassing, you know what I mean? I mean, God bless them, they’re making a bunch of money, but their movies suck,” he laughed to the outlet. “And nobody’s going to remember them.”

“Nobody’s rememberingBlack Adamat the end of the day,” he speculated. “I didn’t even see that movie, it looked so bad.”
The actor added in the interview that Marvel Studios “is used to me trashing them anyway.”
1998’sBlade, which saw Snipes, now 60, take on Marvel’s titular vampire superhero character, spawned two sequels and a television series based on the character from New Line Cinema.
