I remember sixty years ago when Superhero movies were rarely made, and if so, were given the cheapo film treatment, low budget, B&W, released on the bottom half of a double feature like Hercules and the Amazon Women at a drive in.

Now they are given the top budget and great special effects, and repeats, more repeats, and still more repeats.

Our youth today truly live in an age of fantasy.

DC promised big-budget movies of Superman and Batman, years and decades, respectively, before they happened.

Superman: The Movie was a major cinematic event, both for the film and the score. It set the stage, literally, for what followed.

Budgets and technology have made them the bread and butter of major studios.

I still like some of them, but as the leftist propaganda more and more takes center stage, I will be boycotting.
