Comic Book/Super Heroes taking over the world?

[Apoho Creed]

Lately I've been watching loads of Tv and Movies based from Super Hero, or Comic Book characters.I mean movies like Iron Man 3, Thor 2 and it seems to me the genre of Super Heroes is taking over the entertainment business? My my..hasn't the industry changed, you know in 2000 we got to see X-Men the movie and it blew the doors of what could be done with movies based from Comic Books Heroes.Before this the industry tried plenty of movies from such a genre, Power Rangers, Ninja Turtles and they were great for their team, but it seems Directors and Writers were afraid to take a shot on such a genre from Comics after that.Now look at times, the big movies coming out these days will be from Comic Books.It's funny people used to think reading and watching entertainment based from Comic Book characters was nerdy but it seems everyone loves them now.I wonder thought what happens in a about ten years? I mean the new Ninja Turtles movies is coming out soon right.You've got X-Men Days of Future's past, Captain America 2 coming up next, following Guardians of the Galaxy, Avengers 2..will the genre of movies die out? What do you guys think the future of movies/tv shows based from Comic Books and characters?

It'll dominate the industry while the movies make hundreds of millions. Once the money train slows down, Hollywood will jump on the next fad. Let's all enjoy it while we can.

I can tell you what the next fad is. The Hoff. And The Hoff isn't a fad. Once I'm the new fad, I will be around for ETERNITY. Hasselhoff will be in every movie

Wasn't trying to be hilarious. As stated in one of my posts before, The Hoff is serious 24/7. Get yer facts straight, Jack :

I noticed the same thing and all I can say is........its about damn time! As far as whats next? I have no idea. The comic book universe (not just Marvel) has sooooo many stories to put up on the silver screen if they wanted to use them. I would like to see movies of comics I used to read from Crossgen comics called Scion and Sigil, but I doubt it will happen as Crossgen went bankrupt
