Technically we're not get ANY MCU films in 2024. With all the talk of "superhero fatigue" I'm curious how this will play out.

Currently Deadpool 3 is the only MCU film scheduled for 2024. Deadpool 1 & 2 are not set in the MCU, we can assume Deadpool 3 will bring Deadpool into the MCU.

Outside of the MCU, Sony will bring us Madam Web, Kraven the Hunter & Venom 3.

Also, Sony will bring us the 3rd installment of the animated Spider-Man Spiderverse films.

For completeness sake, DC only has a Joker sequel scheduled.

I fully expect Deadpool 3 to be delayed (to late 2024).

I think no one will talk about Madam Web.

I think no one will talk about Kraven.

I fully expect Venom 3 to be delayed (to 2025).

I hope Spiderverse isn't delayed any further, but I suspect it will be.

Which is to say, we're getting a year off, how do folks think this will affect "superhero fatigue", or perhaps more importantly do you think it will give films time to actually be good films?

I agree with others that I don't think superhero fatigue is real. Through this whole bad quality slog, I've still watched every MCU movie...once.

I've kept hoping for them to stop and reassess the production problems the pandemic caused, and I was shocked they just kept pushing out all those half-assed projects even though they clearly knew the problems.

I really had high hopes for The Marvels. It had the look, it had all the pieces in place to finally be the return to greatness, and it just wasn't.

So I really hope this break is the full reassessment and readjustment of how they want to handle diversifying creative styles with new directors and things like The Eternals while still maintaining the level of story and character engagement we got through the Infinity Saga.

I still completely believe they have it in them to do something else great. They just need to stop and make an actual plan before steamrolling ahead. It's not all just gonna take care of itself and I hope they know that now.

I still enjoyed The Marvels but I agree with you completely. They needed to either drop a story line or not edit it down to 1 hour 45 min, 2 1/2 hours might have given the the time to fully develop everything.

The villain was the weakest part, do whatever they could have done to improve that, just give her a little more to do clearer motivation.

Yes, it was too short! Important plot moments had no room to breathe. It got confusing a couple of times, and the really good emotional moments went by too fast.

That's the kind of decision making that just mystifies me. I have no idea how the studio can screen that movie and think pushing it out with such a short runtime was a successful strategy.
