They're still making Marvel movies? Didn't they get the memo that nobody cares anymore?

All the people I know who would have seen this are boycotting Disney. I don't think the punisher fans who never read the comics were keeping superhero movies afloat. I think it was people who liked it when "good" won, and Disney is not on that side, not that they were in the past either. My local comics and games store has pride flags up year round and they are doing great. I think the capitulation to Trump is going to hurt a lot of brands more than they thought.

I was going to counter with Fantastic Four making money but it had a 65% drop in the second week.

To be fair, the Deadpool movies were outstanding. But aside from those, everything since End Game has been forgettable.

Which sucks because I was 100% on board with the MCU. And I kept watching and watching but it's not been the same. It just seems like one pointless CG battle after the next.

I feel exactly the same. But after Iron Man died, I lost all interest.
