Or else I will call you names.

Here's the key paragraph in Scorsese's article:

So, you might ask, what’s my problem? Why not just let superhero films and other franchise films be? The reason is simple. In many places around this country and around the world, franchise films are now your primary choice if you want to see something on the big screen. It’s a perilous time in film exhibition, and there are fewer independent theaters than ever. The equation has flipped and streaming has become the primary delivery system. Still, I don’t know a single filmmaker who doesn’t want to design films for the big screen, to be projected before audiences in theaters.

Sorry dude. Gangs of New York is a better film than Pacific Rim, but the problem you're having is that Gangs of New York on the big screen is not significantly better than Gangs of New York on my television. Pacific Rim is mediocre popcorn fare but Pacific Rim on the big screen in 3D with surround sound is miles better than Pacific Rim on my television. I'm going to watch The Irishman, probably, but I'm content to wait for it to come to Netflix or Redbox, where my wife and I can enjoy it at no extra cost or for $2 on our own schedule. The kind of cinema you make and prefer others to enjoy does not take advantage of what the technology of cinema has to offer, and the ways in which it is superior to popcorn movies are not diminished by being viewed on today's televisions.
