In 2019 I compared superhero films to what happened to musicals in the early to mid 1960s. Back then you musicals that not only became the biggest boxoffice hits of the year, but among the biggest boxoffice hits ever when adjusted for inflation.
"West Side Story", "My Fair Lady", "Mary Poppins", and of course "The Sound of Music". Then just a few years later, musicals were were big boxoffice failures.
The trends were there in 2019 to indicate the same outcomes for superhero films. But what happened? People only looked at the few big hits and not superhero films as a whole.
Got downvoted and even banned from r/boxoffice because the mods felt I was frightening the adults, with "13 year-olds mentality", on the subreddit.
