News culture It’s official, Aquaman 2 is one of the worst launches in DC history in the United States
Superhero movies are starting to seriously bore viewers. The beginning of this feature film says a lot…
Given the omnipresence of superhero films in theaters, it’s not very surprising that viewers are becoming fatigued. This type of feature film is not necessarily renewed, which makes the audience less and less loyal. Being extremely productive, many no longer take the time to go to the cinema to see one work among many others. Keeping track of the Marvel timeline is becoming increasingly overwhelming for some people, who have come to prefer the creative quality over the quantity of a powerful franchise.
The year 2023 was also marked by many celebrities expressing their vision for this type of feature film. Martin Scorsese, for example, considered it necessary to save cinema from this type of production, which is similar to the work of artificial intelligence. James Cameron, on the other hand, said that superhero films lacked depth. In short, more and more celebrities are voicing their opinions on these ubiquitous feature films, and the trend seems to be changing.
Recently, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom hit theaters and audiences don’t seem to be convinced. Few bother to watch the rest of Arthur Curry’s adventures. It seems that not only DC Comics is in danger, but also feature films in the genre that no longer hold the interest of viewers.

A bad start for Aquaman 2
Even though “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” finished ahead of “Wonka with Timothée Chalamet,” it failed to achieve a satisfactory result at the American box office. It grossed only $28 million in its first weekend, which is very low compared to the $67 million when the first work was released.. It certainly starts better than Blue Beetle with 25 million, but doesn’t beat Shazam 2 with 30 million and The Flash with 55 million. So at the cinema premiere of this film we almost witness a shipwreck. It’s hard to say it will do better at the box office over time…
