Marvel’s Ironheart hadn’t even premiered when it was already under fire — not from critics or audiences with genuine concerns, but from a brigade of online
You don’t think it’s telling that the big example you gave for people still liking Marvel was a movie that shit all over the MCU and made fun of the boring, convoluted mess it’s become?
No. That’s why I referenced 2022 & 2023 to show that 2024 wasn’t a rare exception. Looking at 2025 it does look like we are starting to trend downwards. While the two current MCU films are in the top 10 box office their numbers probably won’t let them stay there by the end of the year. However July gives us the comic book film Superman, but also the MCU film Fantastic Four. If those bomb horribly then yeah, maybe people really are getting sick of comic book/superhero films.
Besides Deadpool 3 made one joke about “this being a low point”. Jokes about the multiverse have been happening since the first Deadpool movie when it was just the Fox universe, so once you have access to everything, you of course make fun of everything (although even then most references stuck to Fox properties).
