2018: Superhero Underperformance/Peak? Or Complete Domination?

[YM!]

I think both Black Panther and Animated Spider-Man will explode like crazy.

Unfortunately, I think 2018 may be the beginning of superhero fatigue. I have never believed in superhero fatigue until I next years line up was released. 6 live action films based on Marvel properties in a year, 5 of the films being released in a span of 6 months? Casual fans are going to get burnt out. I'm a die hard Marvel fan, so I hate to admit it, but I think 2018 is the beginning of the Superhero fatigue that some have been talking about for the last decade+.

I agree about Black Panther, but I think animated Spidey will do Lego Batman numbers.

I do not think I might be able to see all of them especially if one of them turns out to be shit. It just so much.

I'm definitely not going to be able to see them all in theaters. My first born child will be born in November.

I think they all do fine. Today's audiences like franchises. So they imbrace them. Franchises are everything today from fast food, sit down restaurants, hotels,  to stores.  I think the for the next ten years there will be at least 5 superheroes blockbuster films a hero.

Wait, your child will be born this November?

 

The same month JL comes out?

 

The same month Superman is reborn?

I hope I'm wrong, I really do. I just think people that aren't huge fans are going to start to get burnt out. That's a lot of Marvel films in one year, not to mention the competition from other films. If there are 3 MCU films every year and 3 XCU films every year, I see some drops incoming.

Take your boy/girl to Animated Spider-Man for their first movie.

Lmao, yeah, I didn't even think about that. Due date is currently November 10th. So I'm probably going to have to wait until Blu Ray for a lot of movies coming in fall and winter. Thor 3 looks like the best Thor film, JL looks like the best DCEU film, and SW8 looks great. I'm going to have to avoid spoilers like the plague this fall/winter haha

That would be cool considering Spidey has been my favorite since I was just a kid.

Congratulations @cheesypoofs For your first child.

Films are getting bigger worldwide. So they are pretty much will always turn a profit.

Holy fuck you are young. That was my first free movie I saw since I started my job at my local theater. When I was 17 years old.
