If most of what you read is sci-fi or fantasy, it's possible that your entire life revolves around escapism, which isn't good for your mental development. I have found maybe two fantasy novels which can combine the real personal struggles and moral quandaries of regular human beings with fantasy themes and captivating writing.
Superhero movies can be emotionally deep or thought-provoking, but the vast majority of them are designed not to stimulate your mind, but to get you to keep buying buckets of popcorn for $15 and action figures. The one thing we don't need more of is mindless entertainment that coincidentally reinforces our biases and problematic thinking.
