Oto is 100% correct!
I still think the superhero genre is going to continue to die off over the next few years.
I hope that's true as I'd really like Hollywood to switch gears but Spider-verse and GOTG3 are still two of the top 3 movies for the year so far and I don't know that there's anything particularly big due to come out for the rest of the year.The huge excitement for Oppenheimer and Barbie coupled with the failure of Batman (Flash), Indy and Spiderverse 2 would tend to back that up. Audiences are rushing to the theater for something else now. Changes in cinema taste do not happen gradually. They happen in a flash in one summer. It's "pop" culture after all.
That's what still blows me away about Maverick. It came out in May but hung around in first run theaters in my area until *December* when Avatar finally knocked it out of theaters for good. When was the last time a movie lasted that long in theaters? Early 90's? Late 80's??It's not a blockbuster but should have legs (whatever that means these days -- 4 months before streaming instead of 2 months ).

That's awesome. Last time I had such an experience was for The Force Awakens in 2015 getting there 45 minutes early to secure good seats with a massive line waiting to go in with everyone buzzing with excitement. Then shortly after that all the theaters in my area switched to preordering individual seat numbers online months in advance which is nice and convenient but killed the "waiting in a long excited line" experience permanently.I don't even remember. Maybe Jurassic Park lasted that long, maybe.
Again, my experience at Oppenheimer was very 90's -- big crowds, engaging and excited audience.
That sounds really awesome…very cool.I don't even remember. Maybe Jurassic Park lasted that long, maybe.
Again, my experience at Oppenheimer was very 90's -- big crowds, engaging and excited audience. It was like we all were going to be watching that first The Phantom Menace trailer for the first time that night.
Maybe that's why theater employees stir your popcorn with poo hands, to keep the homeless from raiding the concessions, lol.That sounds really awesome…very cool.
Umm a homeless dude broke my wiper blade on the BQE when I tried to drive away.

Spiderverse 2 was a failure? $675 million worldwide compared to $385 million for the first one. I bet they hope 3 is a failure too lol.The huge excitement for Oppenheimer and Barbie coupled with the failure of Batman (Flash), Indy and Spiderverse 2 would tend to back that up.

ET lasted a year in theaters which blows my mindThat's what still blows me away about Maverick.
