Deadpool v Wolverine made 1.3 billion last yearHopefully this year will finally prove that the days of 1 billion dollar superhero movies are behind us. The genre has been exhausted like every genre that has come before.
Last year being the operative word.Deadpool v Wolverine made 1.3 billion last year
Ignoring the fact that those numbers had a market that these don't? That's something that's conveniently overlooked whenever these numbers are discussed.Hopefully this year will finally prove that the days of 1 billion dollar superhero movies are behind us. The genre has been exhausted like every genre that has come before, and now its only the die hards that are watching these, not the mainstream audiences.
And for those who are still into the DC v. Marvel, it won't catch up to Superman.
PS- for those who need talking points, I have them for you!
DC Fan- Our movie outperformed all three of your movies this year. Come at the King, better not miss!
Marvel Fan- Our three movies were Fantastic Four (never performed well), a bad Captain America movie with a new Cap, and a movie with characters almost no one knew. Meanwhile you used your most iconic character, and you couldn't even get to $600m.
I'd be quite as happy to see a return to the $10M film that relies on writing. A blockbuster is nice, every now and then but, as with emergencies, if everything is one then nothing is one.
I'm in the same boat with A24. They are the studio that continues to impress me with their innovation; they are the ones pushing Hollywood right now. Not everyone movie they make is a winner, but they have a lot of them, and they are movies that linger with me, as opposed to the disposal fare I won't remember two days later.While they aren't all $10m, I'd say that the batting averages of A24 and Neon movies are pretty good. Even their mediocre movies are interesting, and they rarely have mediocre movies.
If I know that a movie is from A24 or Neon, I'll watch it.
