Scorsese has earned the right to criticise in this subject, I'd think he has a good idea what he's talking about.

Everyone has the right to criticise but his standing doesn't mean his opinion is beyond reproach.
I also think that Marvel films could end up being studied because, after all, they are technical feats and Thanos alone will probably be a benchmark for people learning about CGI in cinema. The social relevance of Black Panther could also lead to it being a film that's highly valued down the line, especially from a historic point of view.
His criticisms of Marvel films are not much different then the criticisms he got when he was a young director in the 'brat pack'. Every generation is bemoaned by the one that came before it.
