In the 1960s we had epics.
In 1970s we had the Western.
In the 1980s we had the buff muscle man, action flicks.
In the 1990s we had the disaster/end of the world type action thrillers.
In the 2000s we had a mix between action and superhero films.
2010s it was a Superhero explosion…
What will come along and replace Superheroes as the next big thing?

Nothing. I think it's here to stay so long as movies continue to exist.

The 60s were more westerns and epics and the 70s were disaster movies and cop thrillers.

This. Exactly. When the theater dies so will superhero movies as we know them now. They will be too expensive to make. |

I wouldn’t mind a Batman film where it’s a dark thriller and he’s more of a detective trying to piece together a puzzle. Maybe have Riddler as a villain. But grounded in reality. Perhaps he’s a serial killer like “The Zodiac” Killler and they call him “The Riddler” because he leaves puzzles at his crimes that give clues to who is next, and who he is. Batman works with Gordon in tandem to solve the crime. Maybe have Joker in Arkham like “Silence of the Lambs” when she works with Hannibal. Maybe Batman has to talk with Joker for help solving the crime. It wouldn’t cost much. You don’t have to throw 200 million dollars at an over bloated CGi mess to have a good superhero film. |

Video game movies. They’re getting better but not quite there yet. However, once Hollywood cracks the code like with comic book adaptations, it’ll be a gold mine.

I guess my point is, I think the superhero bubble bursts due to streaming. As far as genre goes, maybe young adult fantasy? It's already pretty big now. |

I was kind of hoping that is what we were going to get from Affleck when he was writing the script for and directing The Batman. Sad he couldn't make it work. |

Did people think theaters were gonna die when VHS and DVD’s came out too? |

They'll always be popular regardless of what format they're released in. |

I think nothing is going to replace it, the world is a joke.

Cartoons. Seems the younger generations are not maturing emotionally until later in life and cartoons have become more popular than ever, and they are getting better.
