The Discourse

The Phenomenon of Superhero Fatigue


Listen Later

Welcome back to THE DISCOURSE, a podcast about film, entertainment & culture.

In this episode, Tony & Carl dig into the concept of 'Superhero Fatigue' in relation to the recent box-office under-performance of films such as SHAZAM: FURY OF THE GODS and ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA.

Is there such a thing? Is the comic book bubble finally bursting? Or is there another explanation?
