And now we commence the plea copping from people who won't even watch his shyt more than once
oh shyt....im trying to remember if there's any rock movie that i've watched more than once on purposelike if I see one on TV i might just stay watching, but I don't fire them up on my own though...wow.
Truth be told, damn near all of those iconic characters/movies you mention happened by luck:
- Stallone did commentary on 'First Blood' saying nobody wanted to do the film and even he thought it would flop while filming.
- All the major studios turned down Terminator and nobody believed in James Cameron.
- Bruce Willis was told not to do 'Die Hard' and nobody thought it would blow up like that.
It happened even recently with 'John Wick' which nobody really saw coming. Moral of the story is, you can't always predict what's gonna be a classic or an actor "picking the perfect role"...it just happens when it happens.

Shazam was not a flop movie only costed close to 100 million and made close to 400 million worldwide.DC
this speaks to his poor role selection, DC is very hit or miss. and Shazam was already a flop. Dude should've went to MCU.
The superhero era has killed new franchises ... ( John Wick & Taken are anomalies )
Captain America, Iron MAN, sUPES, Batman are todays Rockys and Rambos

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
It's not so much Superhero films killed new franchises, movie studios want films that have built in fanbases already established.
They rather sink 100-200 mil in something that's gonna return 400-600 million globally than something that costs 20-50 million and is only gonna return 70-80 million.
Its simple business, people don't go to the theater anymore in droves for movies unless it is blockbuster status. They wait for it to come on TV unless it's that rare Get Out or Quiet Place film that gets people going.
There's too many other options out there for potential customers.
Dwayne Johnson has his name. . . . The Rock
This is exactly what Marvel has done ... if comic films didn't exist
It would be movie stars fighting each other for the summer slots like the past

Yeah, but comic book films just have the ball now. It was disaster films before. Period-action dramas before that. And before that it was action sci-fi films.
There's always a genre that kills everything else commercially. The difference now is, there's so much other entertainment options available, movie companies invest only what will sell.
No one goes to the movies quite like they did. Evidence of that is Gone with the Wind being the biggest movie all time BY FAR when adjusted for inflation and like 9 of the other 10 of the biggest movies of all time are 30 or more years old.

Spider-verse cost more made less = SuccessDC

Shazam cost less made more = Flop
That's HIS most popular character, but what in the blue fukk are you talking about.
Spider-verse cost more made less = Success
Shazam cost less made more = Flop
FFH cost less made more.
I wouldn't call Shazamm a flop as much as DC films in general a fukking flop.
He outchea trying to steal the FF franchise from Diesel and friends while him and Bautista guard the galaxy.
If a wrestler not even half as iconic can get a role in the MCU, he could have easily stepped to them and said find me something to do.
