How Are You Feeling About The Future of Superhero Movies?

“Shazam! Fury of the Gods” was one of DC’s worst domestic openings, and had a huge second-week drop. And on the Marvel side of things, “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is on track to be one of the MCU’s biggest box office losers. So it’s safe to say things have been a bit bleak, financially, for superhero movies. Both DC and Marvel are going through a lot of changes on the production side of things and are in a bit of a limbo. In this video, CinemaBlend Managing Director and author of “Release the Snyder Cut” and “With Great Power: How Spider-Man Conquered Hollywood during the Golden Age of Comic Book Blockbusters,” Sean O’Connell, sits down with CinemaBlend’s Head of Video, Hannah Saulic, to have an honest discussion about the future of superhero movies. They chat about how Marvel’s “Infinity Saga” might be warping perspectives, the drama between Zachary Levi and Dwayne Johnson and much more. Plus they use “Shazam! Fury of the Gods” as a case study and break down what went wrong. 00:00 - Intro 00:45 - What the heck is going on with superhero projects right now 01:30 - How are you feeling about the future of superhero movies? 10:05 - What Went Wrong with ‘Shazam 2’ 18:45 - Would Black Adam vs. Shazam, or the JSA Have Saved Either Movie? 20:35 - Summer 2023 Is About To Be A New Era Of Superhero Films 23:35 - Hannah fails to wrap a video 24:30 - Now you understand our inside joke from earlier in the video #theflash #dcu #mcu SUBSCRIBE to CinemaBlend's channel HERE - https://www.youtube.com/cinemablend For the latest entertainment news and analysis go here: Movie News:  http://www.cinemablend.com/news.php/ Movie Reviews: http://www.cinemablend.com/reviews/ TV News: http://www.cinemablend.com/television/ Celebrity News: http://www.cinemablend.com/pop/ Superheroes: http://www.cinemablend.com/superheroes/ Movie Trailers & Film Clips:  http://www.cinemablend.com/trailers/
