Jay 37,372 Posted August 9, 2015 Author Share Posted August 9, 2015 It’s the worst opening for a movie featuring Marvel Comics’ characters since “Ghost Rider: The Spirit of Vengeance” debuted to $22.1 million in 2012. A C minus CinemaScore means that word-of-mouth is going to be toxic.Ouch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,318 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Hopefully it means the end of studios creating films that purely serve as setup for a franchise (and for sequels that will now definitely not happen).Just get the one film released successfully before you date its 3 sequels and spinoffs! All that talk about crossovers with X-Men looks mightily stupid in hindsight, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt C 455 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 I think Avengers 2 actually started to show the early signs of the genre-fatigue.Regardless, it means the end of all this drawn-out blandness is coming soon! Hallelujah!It was a huge disappointment. Regardless what people think of Marvel or DC movies, the first Avengers had the novelty of being a superhero crossover that won audiences over. It was like a fanfic author's dream come true. The sequel tried to outdo the first in terms of scope, but it collapses under its own weight. None of the new characters mattered, the action scenes blurred together, and the way Whedon handled characters was maddening.The real test of the 'genre-fatigue' claim will be next year's Batman v. Superman and Captain America: Civil War. If either one doesn't do as well as expected -- then yeah, people are tired of superhero overload.
