This is not right without adding Black and indigenous people of color to the mix since we all wan claim "anti-woke",all 3 are the recipe for "wokeness"

As usual you refuse to believe in Superhero Fatigue.

You talk as if these people on Twitter and Reddit are not part of the so called "General Audiences" that watch these movies.

Is it not the same people who saw the trailers of The Marvels and concluded it wasn't worth their time?

Is it not these same people who memed about The Flash and gave it bad publicity and memed about bad CGI and empty seats at cinema?

The movie bombed now and you're claiming excuses. Tell me how your so-called "General Audiences" knew The Marvels would be bad.

Are these people not the same ones who saw the trailer and decided it is not worth their time?

If their opinion does not count, then how come The Marvels and many other CBM flopped?


Whether you believe it or not, Superhero Fatigue exists and audiences are experiencing it

You can cope all you want, but you cannot change facts.

Lol, as usual you begin to cry when someone starts poking holes in your logic.

Twitter and Reddit are known echo chambers and the majority of general audiences don't have their major section as Film Twitter.

Using Nairaland as a case study, majority of peeps here aren't even on film twitter and care shït for it. Some don't even know the intricacies of franchises and just watch shït as the spirit leads. Abi no be this thread if people start in depth analysis of Hollywood and filmmaking business, half the thread will start shouting "DEVIATION" or "DERAILMENT".

So assuming online nerds/enthusiasts or industry professionals on social media as general audience is a funny assumption.

The Marvels and any other films you'll want to use as examples, were they loved or supported by the fans?? CBM fans already hated these movies long before they came out sef.

There's no successful comic book movie that doesn't have the support of the fanbase first before general audience. The fanbase are the ones that are going to jump in watching this movies on early screenings, premiere night and so on. They're the ones that will create the initial Word of Mouth before general audiences now flock in to decide if it's worth their time.

The Marvels in particular was already hated cos it's Femcentric and features characters no one gives a fvvk about. Is the movie good? Is it an important character?
If the fanbase themselves don't love a project, there's no way general audience will support especially when it's a mediocre film in the first place.

So anyone lacking these context, I'm sorry I can't take your position seriously. Especially when you're a known propagator of "what-aboutism".

I'm sorry if I task you extra special to bring facts about the problems facing CBM at present. I feel someone just saying "Superhero Fatigue" as the sole reason barely knows what he's saying or just goes with the crowd; which is easier to do since almost everyone is currently shitting on it. So it easily hides the deficiencies in one's argument.

I'm too enmeshed in CBM social media discourse that's it hard to just come and drop cliché statements like CBM fatigue and I'll believe you. Just making blanket statements and I'll know you're bullshiting.

You are contradicting yourself.

You act as if the people on Twitter and Reddit are not part of the general audience.

You use the word General Audience as if they are some special group of people who have no affiliation with movie discourse on any platform.

You cannot compare Nairaland to Twitter or Reddit. Nairaland is a Nigerian forum and Nigeria contributes very little to global box office. Comparing that to Twitter or Reddit is quite funny.


You are still yet to properly explain why the "General Audience" refused to watch The Marvels, Antman Quantumania, The Flash and co"


If you say it's because The Marvels is female centric, then what about the other movies?

Even your excuse of the movie being female centric or woke or whatever cannot fly because it is these same "non-general audiences on Reddit and Twitter"
(according to you) that blast movies for being too female centric and woke...

As you can see, you are vastly contradicting yourself.



Whether or not you choose to admit it, these same people on Reddit and Twitter are part of the people who make up the actual general audiences and their views count.

Their memes count, the backlash they give movies count.

It was these same people that bashed the Netflix Cowboy Bebop adaptation that made it flop and Netflix cancel it....

But according to one abduleez1 on nairaland, they are not part of the general audiences


It is funny how you somehow think all the backlash and memes of a terrible movie and a terrible CGI of The Flash all over Twitter did not affect the box office of the movie

The fact is that even those who aren't very active in movie discussions, if everyone on Twitter is calling a movie a terrible waste of time, it affects their own perception and choice as to whether to watch it or not.


Superhero Fatigue is a real thing...it should not even be up for argument...
Until you can explain why your so called "General audiences not on Twitter and Reddit" refused to watch certain movies, then you should better admit it.


When cowboy movies and other past movie genres were dying, copers like you also said it was "bad movies" that audiences were getting tired of and not the genre...


Better stop coping and accept the fact that audiences are getting tired of your beloved Superhero movies.

If you yourself are not tired of it, other people are tired

abduleez1:


Lol, I no dey fear for these ones.

Poor Things is more than assured to get a Best Picture nomination. Saltburn also seems very likely too.

Joker had less than stellar RT score and was very divisive but was a Best Picture nominee and Best Actor winner. In fact, it was nominated in almost all the relevant categories.

I knew you would mention Joker.
I know Joker had polarising reviews, but you can't deny the fact that it was a beautiful movie. The Joker wasn't criticized for performance, cinematography, costume, score, dialogue or whatever makes a movie great. Critics who panned it could only come up with personal reasons for disliking it; conversely industry figures and yours truly (moi) were full of praise for it, and na we really matter.

At this point it's obvious engaging you in an argument would no doubt end up a reductive discourse.

Seeing how naive you're I used NL as a case example. While Twitter or Reddit is a far bigger pool, anyone reasonable will know (movie section) is a minute subsection of Twitter as a whole.
Since, you need someone to break it down for you: the typical average moviegoer is termed as "general audience" not fans who follows a film right from development stage, knows the director, cast, writers and producers and some even know the storyline being adapted. THATS NOT "GENERAL AUDIENCE". They might hear about a movie, know about a movie coming out but they ain't as invested to the craft as a film enthusiast would.
These are people that find it hard to differentiate DC from Marvel. And the same ppl you cry everytime they lump animé the same as animation.
Fans of course also make up the general audience, but they're also a small minority in the entire make-up of a movie-going audience and are different from your typical moviegoer. Know the difference.

If someone said you have comprehension problems now, one would look abusive.


I've only said I don't presently believe in Superhero Fatigue cos all the said flopped movies all have peculiarities of their own flopping.
Just maybe when same fate happens to Aquaman 2 and it fails spectacularly like the last few CBMs, then maybe I might believe it.
Also, I've been hearing "Superhero Fatigue since 2019. What's to say this is any different? Y'all said this last year and the 4 out of the top 10 Hollywood highest grossers are CBMs.

Where I'll really start to feel concerned is when really good CBM films start to perform as worse as this year's films.
So in essence, it's a question of "Bad Movie Fatigue".

So what's the difference with this one— NAPOLEON?? 😁😁

I haven't looked in-depth about discussions about the movie, so I wouldn't know much. And early reactions and reviews recently just started coming in.

I figured if some have a problem with the movie or the story or historical accuracy, I feel Joaquin Phoenix would or should be in Best Actor consideration.

Make we dey watch sha.

The difference is that, those who criticized Joker rated very low, while those who praised gave it excellent ratings (reason why it had a slightly above average score). Napoleons rating on the other hand, is generally uniformed (not so great, and not really bad).
Let's watch and see how it goes sha, maybe it will pull off a Joker surprise.

As for Poor Things, I actually want it to get mad recognition due to my love for Emma Stone, but since I'm hungry for violence, I just want it to miss that best picture list, make we de on some people matter

@ Bolded..... Lmfao, dey play....

Poor Things with Emma Stone as the lead actress has a big lead as the most prominent competitor in the Best Actress category. It's a huge gap.
Based on the trades I'm seeing currently, there's no way she misses out on Best Actress nomination. She's the favourite to win it sef.

So, all in all, it still in the favour of Poor Things and it's also a Best Picture contender at present, based on the trades.

We wouldn't need to wait much sef, since in the next few weeks we'll start seeing nominations for awards bodies and the awards season will kickstart to full swing proper.

You no fit see shït to take use me do Dorime this season.

As expected, you have chosen to beat around the bush once the holes in your argument have been pointed out.


You have failed to properly explain why these so-called General audiences refused to watch movies like The Marvels, The Flash, Antman Quantumania, etc - The exact same movies that those you called "not-general audiences" bashed


You have also failed to explain why it is the exact movies with negative outlook on Twitter, Reddit and other social media have ended up bombing. You have failed to explain how everyone knew The Marvels would bomb just because your "non-general audiences" said it would be terrible and not worth watching


Several replies now by you, yet you have chosen to beat around and avoid these questions.

I can't follow you to engage in your Tomfoolery with strawman arguments.
No be me you go scam to your level.
It's like you read things and understand upside down. It's pitiful. All in a bid to desperately win an argument. 😂😂😂

Can't be engaging in a merry-go-round on a topic I've stated my opinions about numerous times here. I know you very well. I'll give you instances and reasons each one failed but you'd find a way to make nonsensical assumptions and postulaions about it all. So why waste my time?

Cos you already have a made up mind and there's no convincing it would take to change your perception. Even in this argument I've already stated a few reasons some of those films failed but you're blind to see it or you just purposely ignore and reply to things that suit your narrative.

Reddit is ultimately an echo chamber. There are multiple media I see people knocking and issues where people push for boycotts. A lot of noise but no real world response.

You can look to reddit for reviews, but the atmosphere there rarely has any effect on real world numbers.

Fvvk, this trailer goes hard!!!
The visuals remains stunning as always.

I know right. That's why I don't use that platform no more when I noticed they all live in their own reality.

What happened to ELEMENTAL that is generally loved by Film Twitter, MI: DEAD RECKONING with all the praise "saviour of cinema" talk about Tom Cruise didn't save the film from underperforming. Martin Scorsese's KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON is praised almost every Ékè market days on my film twitter, yet that film is a massive flop.
There's tons of examples to name but a few.

Then there's the Snydercut fans that clamoured and shutdown Twitter back then. Dem finally released movie and yet it couldn't even top Mortal Kombat, talkless of other top DC films on HBOMax. Then there's that #BoycottWB campaign earlier this year on Twitter. Still didn't stop a WB film from being the highest grossing movie both domestically and worldwide. 😂

You'll still explain these context to this guy and he'll still come up with another fantastical way to become clownish.

While Twitter can be a powerful social tool, when it comes to films and TV shows, that app is a paradox on its own. It's just a place to get the basic understanding of how fans and critics feel of a movie. Not a reliable metric.

Yeah, I remember but I think you have to qualify for at least one, if not all of the 4 criteria.
Most of these movies can bypass it with making up for it with their crew members if not for on-screen actors.

And there's that donation to a film academy or something like that for diversity. I don forget as I read am for one article.

Who are their so-called "general audiences". Do they exist in a vacuum or what?

Oppenheimer and Barbie had cràzy social media promotion and they performed well...
