Bob Iger just debunked the idea there's superhero fatigue. He has stats and comprehension way above you so he knows what he's saying here.

Bob Iger just debunked the idea there's superhero fatigue.
I agree with him. People aren't tired of Superhero movies, or adventure, or sci-fi, or animated princesses. Disney movies just suck.
pretty obvious that disney is doing as so many companies have done, blaming the audience for their failure
you can only say that if you've been repeating the successful formula. they have not.
He can frick around and find out, it's his money
Which other companies have done this?
This. Iger is right, the problem Disney has is simply making bad films, Cape media still does well when it's well made. MCU just can't ride the coattails of brand recognition anymore and actually has to start putting in effort again.
He's also the one ultimately responsible for letting a constant stream of mediocre to bad films get released.
I mean
He's not wrong though
I would still go see a genuinely good superhero movie
But my definition of good is not the same as yours or his
his lips says that, his pen delayed lots of projects and scrapped others
It's hard to make a good product when you're pumping out crap at a rapid pace.
You don't need to be smart or exceptionally informed to know that people will go to movies in common genres if they look good. That's how the industry has always worked.
while correct i do think the current slate of actors/heroes is a little bland and it needs to be cleared. get through this kang anthony mackie brie larson stint and start anew. clean slate.
I hate Nolan
Because it's not superhero fatigue. It's the fact that they been producing nothing but low quality movies that no one is interested in post-Endgame.
>Doesn't name a single Marvel film that made money post Endgame to prove that the fatigue isn't real
Is moronic? There has been at least 3 Marvel films that almost made a billion after NWH.
>Is moronic? There has been at least 3 Marvel films that almost made a billion after NWH.
Those were sequels and all of them made less than their previous movies. The only one he might be able to swing is GOTG3, which only did as good as it did because it had really strong legs, but Black Panther and Thor had pretty damn bad holds.
Sorry OP, after the 47th second chance I had enough of Bob.
Gwenpool kino when?!
hopefully never
After She Hulk underperformed so badly they're probably going to keep Deadpool as the only "meta" character.
Gwenpool powers are made to work with comics
Live action would just be time travel
she ruined a good game
Which one?
Gwenpool would be the way to get the trans Gwen effect out of the Spiderverse, if they're thinking of calling women and girls and selling toys, Gwenpool would be perfect for that, she should be in Deadpool 3, but they'd have to have vision for that and you guys know they hate feminine women
>If you make good movie, people will like it
No shit, first name Sherlock.
>good films
I’ve yet to see a good Disney capeshit film. And Iger having the gall to call Oppenheimer a superhero is funny
>Iger having the gall to call Oppenheimer a superhero
What's funny is how moronic you are.
>And Iger having the gall to call Oppenheimer a superhero is funny
You don’t remember when he accidentally irradiated himself on the test site and turned into a naked green dude?
Or was it a blue dude?
>uses a non-superhero film as an example
I genuinely don’t understand how Iger hasn’t been removed in a palace coup yet.
He’s cost the company billions of dollars in profit through horrendous decision-making, is hemorrhaging money through out-of-control production costs on movies that are extremely unpopular and usually undersell, constantly has public feuds with his own customer base, has actively damaged the park brand through declining quality of service whilst simultaneously making it unaffordable, and has been caught lying to investors at least once.
He’s a nincompoop with a toxic personality who’s driving his own company to financial ruin and he needs to go.
Everyone under him is just as bad or worse. We need a clean break from the corporate nobility, because at this point they will genuinely bring down the house.
i would be happy to see that
He's paying off the Disney descendants to protect him now. Abigail Disney hated his guts a few years ago, but now she's defending him against Peltz/Rasulo.
Three reasons.
First, Iger pushed out everyone who was capable of taking over his job. Chapek was promoted to be the fall guy during the pandemic, ironically for him to take the company's stock to its highest price point ever. Iger misread the pandemic, and when he realized this, he forced his way back in right as the pandemic receded. So he fricked up twice. This is basically buying high and selling low.
Second, the bottom rank and file at Disney are dumb. They love the guy, and they don't know when he's screwing them over, such as with this tweet. He is implicitly blaming Disney's movie problems on its creatives, while putting management forward as the solution. It's a rotten move, it's unbecoming of a leader, but the people at Disney still support him because he pays lip service to their progressivism.
Third, he has protection from the largest institutional investors, who have all moved to the political left not because of sincerely held beliefs, but because since 2008, they realized that the right would let them fail, while democrats would bail them out. No big sexy conspiracy, just the most insipid and garden variety kind of self interest. As long as the majority of investors own Disney through funds and ETFs, they relinquish their vote to the institution that will keep Iger there at all cost.
Good post
Bob Iger is evil and a politician
Removing Iger doesn't suddenly get rid of the rest of the rot that's seeped in to the company, specifically in the form of diversity/sjw pandering that does nothing but humiliate, usurp, and replace white male characters/leads, replace and/or marysue white female leads, and force LGBTBBQ+ romances and plots just for the sake of having them there.
There will not be a change in Disney's movie quality until there is a change in public reception to forced diversity and representation. Eventually they'll frick up so badly that even the diehard audience will say, "You know, you guys went too far this time. This is bad." Like, I'm talking budlight levels of frickup, to the point where financial experts say you've permanently lost over half your consumers, for then to try and course correct in any meaningful fashion. Otherwise they'll simply do what they claim they're going to do currently but on a bigger scale, which is to "slow down" production on their films and essentially just hope that they can stay under the radar long enough for consoomer npc brain to kick back in and make everyone forget why they were mad at them and start eating the slop again.
What are we counting as "superhero fatigue"?
I was under the impression it was that the larger audience were getting sick of the formula and different tropes that accompany all these films.
>Bob Iger just debunked the idea there's superhero fatigue
>debunked
i´m sure you have no idea what that means, you fricking idiot.
superhero fatigue only exists in the rotten brains of film twitter.
>6 superhero flops in 2023
it would matter if it wasn't the biggest media thing ever.
Madame Web flopping does matter to Sony, not so much to the real Marvel.
>it would matter if it wasn't the biggest media thing ever.
It isn't anymore.
Superheroes should've never been milked to death by disney and hollywood
They should've remain a niche, now every normie with some taste is shit talking the entire concept and anything on the big screen related to comics. It's kinda sad to see these characters I like just get hated and be seen as slop, even when effort is put into them
is just the same as it used to be frick normalgays their opinions are whats trash
>just want good films. If you build it good. They will come.
Isn't he admitting that most of the recent Marvel's movies have been bad?
This entire thread is weirdly moronic bait. Audiences flock to terrible movies all of the time, for one thing.
Obviously one non-superhero movie becoming a cultural phenomenon people meme watched along with “Babie” of all fricking things does frick all to show if audiences actually are getting less likely to pay for superhero movies, for another. You’d have to do actual statistical analysis for that though.
Some of that seems to show people are less likely to pay for movies IN GENERAL though and the occasional cultural phenomenon outlier means jack shit there.
Is Oppenheimer joining the MCU?!
Technically he created mutants.
there is fatigue. The Marvels would not have flopped during the pre-Endgame era.
It most certainly would have because it was a shitty movie. There were underperforming MCU movies pre endgame like Dark World
No, Thor the Dark World did more 3 times the box office Of The Marvels and that was a terrible movie. People were more forgiving before.
Yes Iger, please keep using ugly old skeletal women in baggy suits that hide their entire bodies, never follow the comics, keep hiring the worst directors, like Waititi and Gunn, who always change everything and, of course, keep putting lots of lgbt stuff in all the media, you're doing a great job of making shareholders poorer and poorer You were hired to break Disney and you're doing great
> worst directors
> gunn
based schizoposter
gotg3 was marvel's biggest hit since NWH
Comic book heroines in games should always go in the style of Stellar Blade, the new Wonder Woman game will have her in the costume of the latest films, I mean hiding her ass, yes the guys at Warner are geniuses, they made a mistake in choosing Gadot and now they're going to make a game for no one to buy
Gadot is cute
