Why are makers of high art so afraid and resentful of the success of low art?

hah. coppola and scorsese and lucas and spielberg worked closely together earlier in their careers and all pulled cinema in a particular direction (less artifice, more “real”, yeah lucas and spielberg too). the marvel system exposes cinema’s vulgar machinations/artifice.

if your career has been about disguising cinema’s artificiality then the blatant artifice of a network of superhero (films/games/products) undermines not just the power but the validity of your vision of cinema

Narcissism of minor differences. Coppola and Scorsese aren’t really high art. Ask Matthew Barney what he thinks about MCU

the high/low dichotomy is entirely manufactured and exists to keep boring people and/or their boring films in artificially elevated positions of capital-C Cultural power

Is it just high vs low art, or just a generational thing? Like explaining why vaporwave is popular to old folk Or is this a non-difference?
-
if nothing else it indicates the silly constructed nature of the “high art”/“low art” dichotomy itself
