Is Superhero Fatigue Real?

No…? Though to prove it is people typically bring up movies like Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022) not doing as well as the first movie – and financially speaking that’s true, except when you take into account that not only had the lead, Chadwick Boseman, died in 2020 and the sequel not only didn’t replace […]

The Batman – Part II!? WTF!?
