“This is an unprecedented Marvel box office collapse,” says David A. Gross, who runs the movie consulting firm Franchise Entertainment Research.”

Put a chick in it and make it lame.

The first Captain Marvel had a chick in it and made over a billion dollars. How did that happen when the chick made it lame?

 

Here’s the thing - the warnings over the drastic oversupply of MCU film and TV content have been sounding loud and clear for some time now. It has nothing to do with work and everything to do with an audience that can’t possibly keep up with everything being thrown at them so as a result just doesn’t care about any of it anymore. 
 

But it’s very telling that you personally can’t imagine any film being made with a female lead except as an exercise in woke social engineering, and that you personally don’t think any film with a female lead could be worth watching on its own merit. It’s a really fucking ugly side of your personality.

The folks who like 'comic book superhero movies' say it's really good.

The rest of the world is kind of done with the genre.
