Is it real, or a figment of our imaginations?
>>154607199Yes and noInvincible's streaming show, Dispatch, Spider-Verse, etc shows the genre itself can still be popular however a saturation of mediocrity makes people sickThe MCU isn't just struggling because of that, it's also because it's struggling under the weight of its own continuityToo many things to keep up withToo many shows to watch, hours to spend
Its very real and only fools think it is not. Its only going to get worse as time goes on as well as we see with Supergirl bombing so hard that it won't make 80 million domestically. Marvel and DC will either have to make huge budget films like Deadpool and Wolverine and create these event films where everyone sees them or make smaller budget films to turn a profit. Either way Capeshit is definitely weaker then it was in the 2010s.
What you're really seeing is mid movie fatigueWord of mouth has quietly been the story of the last few years with Sinners, Weapons, arguably even going back to Top Gun Maverick and it's only now that Hollywood is starting to listenSome IP still have power, but throwing a toy from the 80s or a C-list superhero into a movie and slathering it in post-ironic humor is about 5 years past its expiration date
>>154607199Not really. But people don't want to have to put up with massive and shitty extended universes like Disney was trying to do with all their shitty shows. Simpler one offs or simpler just movies work if they're at least decent.
>>154607199I don't understand the dismissal of superhero fatigue as cope, do you think the genre conventions will be evergreen and never fizzle out like westerns or noir?

>>154607938Go to any comic con in the country and you'll find 90% of the cosplayers as anime characters Capeshit is dying with the boomers and rightfully so
>>154607199People have blockbuster fatigue, if anything. There's also the fact that you don't have to wait to stream a movie anymore, so people are more likely to wait the month to just rent it for 4 bucks on streaming (or stream it for free depending on the movie and service), rather than spend upwards of 20 dollars to see it in a room that's probably far more likely to have a bunch of screaming children in it.
>>154607199It’s real in the sense that it is a a waterfall effect.Too many products, most of them mid or shit wtittenPeople getting frustrated the more and more crap is released by these out of touch “directors”The flew good products are (rightfully) put on a pedestal, yet they struggle to do well financially as they used go be since less people are interestedLess people are interested into consuming new products since most of the time are bad
>>154607199Superhero movies trend ended long time ago, now everybody is interested in video game movies.
>>154607199I’ve tried to combat these claims and argue against the idea of superhero fatigue but as long as retarded clueless faggots like James Gunn are in charge, they’re gonna run it into the fucking ground to where after the DCU, we’ll just go back to getting nothing but Batman stuff again for the rest of time.

>>154607229>it's struggling under the weight of its own continuityDCU has little continuity as of right now and yet it still fails. No one watched Peacemaker, CC, or Supergirl, and Superman was only a moderate success at best.

>>154607199He's got a point but unfortunately they may never rise above mediocrity again
>>154607229>Spider-Versemade novel by the artstyleif anything MCU has made capeshit a staple, and the public has a lot of reference point now. not only do they have to make quality in plot and props, they also have to make sure to avoid tropes that would otgerwise be dine a decade ago
