Summer often has competing superior films, and this season was not an exception. James Gan started from DCU SupermanA few weeks later, the MCU unit released Fantastic Four: First StepsThe fourth attempt (if we return the Roger Korman movie, which was not released) in bringing the first Marvel family to the big screen. Surprisingly, Superman It rose while Fantastic Four Flopped, who reveals a realistic truth about these films: in the world of fatigue after the supernatural, the films that were built around the famous characters are likely to succeed.

The famous Marvel Cinematic University launched with what the comedy fans at that time consider the Big Champions such as Iron Man and Captain America. marvel He was forced to do this because other studios carried the rights of the film for the most popular heroes: Spider-Man and X-Men. To the credit for Marvel, they built an increasingly financial cinematic world and financial empire from the ODBALL heroes, and they eventually turned even mysterious strange like Galaxy guards In the names of families.

Fundamental executive officials have effectively killed this golden geese, and both the cinema theaters and the Disney application+ with a lot of Marvel content that seem to have everything seemed to be a boring routine work. After stirring like Etharnalsand Ant and Dabur: QuantumaniaAnd MiracleIt was clear that Disney lost Midas Guntlet. This was confirmed again by the box office failure the ThunderboltA well -written film and cash, still fails to put enough butts in theaters to justify its costs.

within Mcu This has led to that Thunderbolt It only failed because it was the story of a handful of heroes and bad guys from outside the C. Fantastic Four It will be a great success, especially with the famous PEDRO PASCAL as a leadership. Now this The first steps Bombing Superman Nevertheless, these street verafts have succeeded in facing the fact that only the largest superheroes can lead a movie from Tentpole to the success of the box office.

Types of heroes that I am talking about relatively clear: Superman, BatmanSpider-Man, and so on. These are the types of characters that have generations of fans who will come out to watch the latest movie, which is what Superman It has recently become a single successful movie that includes man of steel. Wisely, Gunn decided to use this film to launch a variety of most exotic characters (including MR. Brainy MR. Wickerfic and The Hard-Noseed Guardner) whose address has not been able to address her own individual films.

While he failed The wonderful Quartet It seems that Marvel Studios, the executives of Disney, have noticed writing on the wall, which is why the next Spider-Man movie will include both Hulk and Punishable. In the modern era of super -fatigue, none of these characters was unable to the title of their successful individual films (in addition, universal pictures still have distribution rights for individual films). By placing these least attractive characters in a movie with their most popular hero, Marvel can effectively reach their deep seat of the characters while making the new spider man look new and new.

For better or worse, this is now the future of super cinema: only individual films will be built about the most popular (marketable) characters, and more of these “individual” films will be definitely characterized by roles of other heroes. It is an approach that might save miracle, assuming that their big films are madly Avengers: Day of Resurrection and Avengers: secret wars Do not flirt. Other than that, James Gon may mourn its main hero, as the cloak of the best cinematic universe “UP, Up, and Owe” takes one of its biggest competitors.
