In my opinion something has shifted, the superhero and franchise reboot films are struggling, after some bombs like the Flash, Shazam and disappointment Ant Man 3, and not even the leftists caring about the Secret Invasion show, you can just kind of feel it that it's over for superhero. Movies like Barbie and Oppenheimer took its place in terms of building anticipation on social media. After a summer of disappointments these films took advantage by blowing the doors off this weekend. I predict a bad winter for Captian Marvel and Aquaman sequels and maybe some stuff breaks out in its place like the Napolean movie or something.

In my opinion it never made sense that Marvel could make so many movies in a row with the same tone and taking NO chances for 15 years and people wouldn't get tired of it. It breaks the rules of how it's supposed to work. My explanation for it was that there was something going in connected to overall mind virus-ness of this generation, that led them to flock to the Marvel movies like sheep to fit in with everyone else.

And yes Barbie is probably still plenty woke, on the whole, I think this weekend blowing up probably still represents that something has changed for the movie audience, like a spell has started to lift. This is encouraging as it means that perhaps, there is movement inside the hopelessly woke, Marvel fanboying, Netflix show watching, NPC catchphrase tweeting, etc. person, if the Marvel fanboying part of that package can heal, perhaps the woke parts of it can too.
