Excessive release of superhero movies?


Is it just me, or are there way too many superhero flicks being made nowadays? It's reached the point of being downright sickening. The plots are always so unimaginative and shallow. A film can't solely rely on special effects. Enough with the superhero movies.

I agree, there are too many of these films. They are being made possibly to distract people from all the crap going on in the world.

Way too many comic-book, action, super-hero, violent, animated, gimmicky movies to keep track of

It's not just you. But tbh I hate it but I also enjoy it. Like, it's geek heaven to see comic characters interacting in large groups on screen. But it also seems like Hollywood is in a rut. A lucrative, money making rut, but a rut nonetheless. They're creatively stunted about how to make good films that make bank that aren't superhero ones. And the thing is, they're kind of right.

No one is willing to take any real financial risks nowadays. Even if a superhero film fails, the risk doesn't feel great because the next one will make money anyway.

I'd be ok with them if they made them all like The Dark Knight and Logan.

The Joker looks amaze...can't wait for that.

Despite my disliking for superhero films nowadays, I'm really looking forward to the new upcoming Joker film. It just looks so interesting.

I never liked superhero movies. They're just not for me.
