Well a broken clock is right twice a day, so by law of averages you are bound to not spout just inane bullshit all the time, most of the time yes, all of the time eh close but not quite, but trust you to even when you do say something right you then fuck it up.
Superman may have been the original big budget feature superhero film but that's not to say without it there would never have been others, the fact that Superman stood alone in that space for over a decade until Batman also got a movie, which came off the back of the Batman resurgence in the mid 80's, not the success of the Superman films which had quickly dwindled into shoestring budget films just about recouping their expenses in less than a decade.
Without Superman the foundation of the comic book blockbuster would not be what it is today, doesn't mean it wouldn't exist however, and it's never just one thing Elektra wasn't the only reason we didn't get a female led cbm for a decade it was just the final straw after the two prior attempts that failed to land with Supergirl & Catwoman.
The modern CBM owes it's success to many films, Superman for being the first, Batman for being the resurgence, Blade & X-Men for saving the genre after Batman & Robin almost killed it, Spider-Man for showing just how much potential the genre held, The Dark Knight for raising that bar then Avengers for raising it even higher and showing us what a shared universe if done right can culminate in, all these things build on one another, but also are just as important, Superman could have come out had it's run same with Batman but had we not got Blade & X-Men maybe that's where the genre dies, everything fucks with and helps out everything else, it's just how shit goes.
My bad I should have specified for the mentally incompetent like yourself, TDK raised the bar from what Spiderman set in terms of financial peak of the cbm genre, Avengers then came and raised that bar even higher and IW did it again, whilst Avengers & IW also showcased that this is what a universe can do if done right, it can bring in the fans of individual properties, which is what has greatly shaped the current movie landscape of every franchise seemingly wanting their own cinematic universe which is no more evident than in the cbm genre.
see I thought saying Spider-Man showed just how much CBM's could gross and saying TDK then raised THAT bar and Avengers then did it again it was quite obvious what I meant, I forgot people like yourself are mentally inferior and also to myopic in your bias and petty need to bash or put down others for different opinions you would just assume because I said a positive thing in regards to the MCU I must have been making such a statement you think any positive MCU comment always is, I apologise both for not taking your limited cognitive capability into consideration but that you are such a fucking dipshit you would inherently make such an assumption, now fuck off.
