I keep reading about the worry over Superhero fatigue, but I don't see any real signs of it. I think we get bad movie fatigue, but I think we actually cut these movies a bit more slack than we do with normal movies, because we're walking into the theater ready to suspend disbelief.
I think this one will have to make its money from word of mouth more so than a lot of the others, though. |

The Spiderman films have a sort of "sameyness" to them. Posted via Mobile Device |

I do think most people would love to see what Marvel could do with Spiderman and X-men, but |

Might see Edge of Tomorrow, depending on the reviews.
Ditto for Gone Girl. Definitely will see Interstellar on November 7th. |

They're doing what makes genre entertainment work: they're making every movie a little bit different. Thor had heavy science fantasy elements, Thor 2 was completely off the wall, Captain America was a period drama, Cap 2 was a political thriller. Etc.

The reason we're not seeing superhero fatigue is because of Marvel, plain and simple. Now that Nolan's trio is over, and with the possible exception of the X-Men films, every other studio that's making superhero movies is sticking their foot in it.

I am so pumped for this flick, and what it means for for the future. Marvel could blast out super hero movies for the next decade and be nowhere close to the bottom of the barrel. |

I really hope this does well. It just seems like a hard sell to the unwashed masses. Even if it's great.
