Superhero Fatigue. Real or not?

Or are we all just getting bored with internet hype? All this and more are talked about in this episode. Are you tired of superhero films?

This has been an ongoing argument for decades but it seems to be heating up. Tent pole films have become the norm and some would argue that original pictures are suffering. If that hypothesis is true, who is to blame? Is it the studio for putting out vapid franchises that make money or is it the consumer who keeps going to the theater to see it?
