Marvel movies are very low brow, and there is nothing wrong with that. Some of my favorite movies are low brow, like Jackass 3D, Idiocracy, and Return of the Living Dead.
But there are different sorts of low-brow, obviously. With some sorts of low-brow entertainment, no fans will be upset when somebody like Scorsese says "That's not cinema." Because they know it, and they're okay with it. Everybody knows Jackass 3D is low brow, and as the sort of person who enjoys it, hearing that said would just make me wonder why somebody was bothering to state the obvious.
I'm not sure if the problem originates with the MCU itself or the MCU fans, but one way or the other the fans seem to take it very seriously and get very cross when somebody voices their dislike of it. Before Scorsese started catching flak for it, Pewdiepie similarly voiced his dislike of MCU and got a lot of very similar angry backlash. (I think the contrast between Scorsese and Pewdiepie is amusing.)
I think maybe part of the problem is the MCU is power fantasy media, where the audience frequently insert themselves into the role of one of the super heroes. Perhaps this involves their ego whenever somebody criticizes that character by way of criticizing the franchise. So perhaps in a way, when somebody insults the MCU they're effectively insulting MCU fans. That's just me spitballing though.
