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.

And most of it wasn't even in the comic. The rampage Nolan goes on while fighting Mark doesn't turn out that way. Any human deaths are a consequence of the two literally flying through buildings and subway station structures, not literally through people face first as the cartoon does. Or grabbing a pilot and exploding his head in one hand.
The whole thing is just Amazon wanting their own version of The Boys which is hilariously tragic since that itself fucked up adapting a comic which would have been far better if done faithfully. But then that's never going to happen.
still feels kinda woke to me.
Because it is, see why in my reply to Smith1980 below.
