there is a lot of room between superhero blockbusters and art films, a wide middleground that i would categorize most of scorsese's work under, and it is a valid point that comic book movies, love them or loathe them, are pushing out not just the ultra indie but that traditional mainstream release from theaters. i'm not offering a solution nor a condemnation; if the public wants to go to the multiplex to see a comic book movie but stay home for a drama, comedy, or even an action film without super powers, then there's no sense fighting reality. the rest comes down to taste.
