Superman 2025 & Fantastic Four FLOP – Well That's AWKWARD...

Two of the biggest superhero movies of the year – Superman (2025) and Marvel’s Fantastic Four – were supposed to dominate the box office… but instead, they’re both falling short of predictions. In this video, we break down the numbers, compare them to past DC and MCU hits, and expose why the excuses aren’t holding up.
From Superman’s massive “Barbie-level” marketing budget and record-breaking trailer views, to Fantastic Four’s underwhelming performance compared to post-COVID Marvel hits, we dig into what really happened. Is this superhero fatigue, bad marketing, or something else entirely?
We’ll also debunk the “COVID excuse,” look at how certain regions like China are showing clear comic book fatigue, and highlight how recent blockbuster successes like Lilo & Stitch, Jurassic World, and Minecraft prove audiences will still show up for the right movies.
This isn’t just a numbers breakdown – it’s a reality check for the state of superhero cinema.
