Yes I think people are getting bored of them now, each film seems to follow the same template.

I only watched this on opening day because I was off.

Disinterest seemed to have started after the 2nd Lockdown with the Black Widow release.

Also not helping is the plethora of the TV shows and what annoyed me with the recent Dr Strange and Any Man films was the fact that characters from the TV shows were appearing in the films and considering I've never seen a single TV episode, I was wondering who they were in relation.

I do believe that the films and TV shows aren't going to be integrated as much now as this was a common complaint. But I maybe wrong about that.

TBH, it needs a significant break, make us miss it.

The Marvels has flopped big time grossing only $47 million in the United States.

It's already being labeled a potential box-office bomb.

Personally i'd like to see the end of Marvel and DC for a few years or decades. Get Hollywood to make some proper films again.

Totally agree,
For years we’ve been dominated by
Marvel/ DC
Remakes
Reboots
Prequels
Spin off
Sequels
Universe
That type of thing.

Also imo I don’t quite get all the hate for films like Talk To Me, that try to stand on it's own merit, it wasn’t fantastic it wasn’t as bad as ppl make out and at least it’s a film that tries to be different instead of all the above,
Tbh not much grabs me at the moment and hasn’t for years, but one film I got around to watching a few month back that I did really enjoy was last night in soho .

It's the fact that I needed to see 2 TV Shows (That I haven't seen) to get the full storyline and characters that's made me think that Marvel Films aren't for me now.

It's a thing that Disney now realize and may rectify.
