As another somewhat old fart, it feels like we don’t see any novel breakout titles take top spot at the box office anymore - titles that come out of nowhere; in addition to the movies you mentioned, Forest Gump, The Godfather, Goodfellas, … etc. It’s all superhero stuff. That’s all people are willing to talk about. It practically dominated the conversation.

- worrycue 5y agoI miss the “surprise” when the answer to the question, “What’s No.1 at the theatres?” wasn’t “<insert comic book>“. It also really doesn’t help that the subject matter of American comics is so narrow - at the end of the day it’s superhero vs supervillain.
