Prediction: superhero movies/comics will become unpopular and go through something of a recession/winter due to covid. They won’t bomb, but they’ll underperform and be a somewhat marginal genre for a decade. Why: straightforward extrapolation from WW2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Age_of_Comic_Books#After_the_war …

That said I predict Wonder Woman 2 will be a hit since it happens to also be an 80s nostalgia movie. So might the stand-alone Nick Fury. Interesting to try and predict which periods will be most popular nostalgia-wise. I think 80s because X’ers. Older = boomers = tainted.

I'd argue that MCU already operates in this area. A lot of its successes have been about adapting classic Hollywood staples into its comfy, inoffensive mold.

It's a good point. The acid trips of the late '60s were followed by the gritty realist dramas of the '70s in the wake of Vietnam; there will be a need for people to process their emotions through art forms, film will be one.

Two people in a room dramas? Only for masochists.
