The new Fantastic Four movie (that is actually in line with the MCU) dropped 80% from opening weekend to the second weekend. Don't think it's the end of the MCU, but the drop is interesting to me (archive.is)

Re: 4.

Nah, people are sick of shitty movies. We're three/four generations into superhero movies and they are still popular when they are good. It's that last part is just rare now, but when they are even half mediocre, they still sell.

In case anyone brings up the fall of Westerns: lookup the "rural purge."

American audiances NEVER tired of westerns. It was the pedowood execs who tired of making movies with moral men doing moral things, and they spent an entire decade trying to retrain the public into wanting something else.

It's the same thing with "Capeshit," people still want to see movies about moral men doing moral things against immoral villains. Only redditors and pedowood disagree.

Public is soaked after 8532328 superheroes

I don’t think that’s the issue. I think the issue is that there’s 8532328 superhero products and they stopped being good about 2844109 projects ago.

Deadpool and Wolverine showed it's not superhero fatigue, it's just shit writing fatigue which most superhero films are ending up as. Conversely the problem of 1 success to 9 failures is that the 1 success can do so well the 9 failures don't matter from a money POV, so they can be written off and filled with THE MESSAGE and other crap because the studio doesn't care as they make up any losses on something else.

Nobody cares about post-Endgame storyline

I think the biggest reason why this might be the case is because it took so damn long to integrate the actual X-Men into the MCU. Like the entire reason why they bought 21st Century Fox was to do so, and it took until Deadpool vs Wolverine to actually get it done, which is insane.

No it's because the solution to endgame objectively sucked ass, and there is no coming back from having the option to fix everything and only fixing half of it, because reasons. Then trying to shoehorn every single property after into the same fucked up timeline of "the blip" to the point even finally having X-men and F4 is pointless, because this timeline shouldn't even exist.

The timeline also happens to be woke as fuck, so who actually cares about it anymore?

A movie that actually resets "the blip" and brings all the white male heroes back, and erases all the woke, would make billions.
