Okay yeah, true enough. Maybe it would be more accurate to say that people are now much less likely to go see a mediocre to bad superhero movies. To give an example, the first two Thors and Iron Man 3 weren't great, but they were still box office hits. I have to wonder if it would pan out the same way if they were released today.
