00:00Hello, I'm Phoebe, and welcome back to Feedback Friday, where every week we ask one question,
00:04go through your comments, and use your suggestions and feedback to improve your WatchMojo experience.
00:09So last week we asked for your favorite Thanksgiving scene in TV and film.
00:14And two things.
00:15How did we miss WKRP, and why is turkey-based humor so underrated?
00:21Anyway, let's gobble our way off of Thanksgiving and onto a topic that is very much top of
00:26mind.
00:26Superhero movies.
00:27I've fought with many warriors in my time, they were far stronger than all of us put
00:36together.
00:37Now, excitement for Doomsday is through the roof, and the amount of speculation and theories
00:41has the internet fully on board for what seems to be one of the most anticipated movies in
00:45an already successful year for the movie industry.
00:48Obviously the reception hasn't been the same for all superhero movies, looking at you Supergirl.
00:53I'm not freaking out.
00:54You're not freaking out.
00:55I'm not freaking out.
00:56But films like Spider-Man, Brand New Day, and Clayface are great examples of what happens
01:00when you explore new genres and fresh ways to present an already established character.
01:05You want to know how I feel?
01:09But with mergers, firings, and industry shakeups, a lot of people are worried about what may happen
01:14to comic book films moving forward, especially over at DC.
01:17So here's the question for this week.
01:20What is the current state of superhero movies?
01:23Are they so back?
01:24Have they been hit or miss, but starting to look more promising?
01:27An unsustainable model, or a boring and tired topic of discussion?
01:32Bonus points if you let us know your favorite superhero movie of the year so far, or any upcoming
01:37movie you're excited about.
