I do wonder this because I have shat on super hero stuff in the past and I do think normies have completely ruined it. At the same time though could it be salvaged in some way? I was thinking in terms of some kind of 3D animated short or movie and yes I am partially floating this idea because I do appreciate simple storytelling and it doesn't even necessarily have to be super hero stuff.
Hollywood and Disney really are fucking up so hard they can't even manage to get such a basic formulae right. I bet these types of movies and shows would be even better if they were uncensored and shocker had blood in them etc. depending on what kind of super hero it was. Graphic gore and blood would probably help keep the normies away from ruining it and they wouldn't let children watch it either.
Invincible on Amazon Prime has a lot of graphic violence and blood and still feels kinda woke to me. Quality superhero genre stuff will always have a good chance of being successful but the days of it always being the dominant force at the box office are probably over. Westerns were once all the rage, and now although people are willing to go see a decent cowboy movie they’re not the cultural touchstone they once were.
I have some of the comics and I’ll read those or get an omnibus. I heard it was good but they race swapped a character
They made Mark’s best friend flamboyantly gay too.
That's mostly because the Ctrl Left can't do nuance. Mark's friend ends up coming out as gay dozens of issues down the series but the cartoon not only starts with the character as gay but goes full flaming stereotype from the get go.
