It's like comparing apples and oranges though. I think a far better comparison would be comic book movies are this generation's Slasher Genre, or Westerns, Mythology genre.

Star Wars was an original (albeit hybrid) story, told over 3 movies.

Comicbook movies (even if you want to be specific) Marvel - is a collective of independent movies, that may or may not be connected to the overall story. These characters have also existed for decades, so they bring in an existing market. Also, most casuals don't know the difference between Marvel Studios, Marvel, and hell, DC/WB if you want to keep it 100.
This.
Star Wars was a different animal in it came out 1977

Still there is a type of movie that is the lead representative for each category. Clint Eastwood movies for Westerns, Freddy or Jason for slasher movies, and Star Wars for sci-fi. Right now it's Marvel reppin' for superheroes.
And I don't know the exact % breakdown but MCU movies have a lot more die hards than others superhero movies.

Darth maul >


Palpatine had the greatest rise to being the top villain. nikka was a sith scumbag politician who used people that probably could've easily killed him if they weren't weak minded.
:wow:

Live nikka Rap
Think about it

Real nikkas don’t give a FUUUCK about no cac Wars bullshyt .. critics and them old ass cac fucc boiis gon continue getting hard ons over that dumb glow stick bullshyt when clearly no one cares bout that no more

This is the AGE OF SUPER HEROES *Gal voice*

:wow:

“I’m about a Batfleck & Vibranium, what the fukk is a dark side”

GotG already doing space shyt better than them cac Wars nikkas

Wait till the Deathstroke film comes out, real swords not no bullshyt Glow sticks

Black Order >>> p*ssy ass Vader squad

Another case of nikkas thinking them and their circle of friends is a reflection of the whole globe. The billions of dollars spent on movies, toys and other merchandise in the past 5 years proves that every thing you just said was wrong
Plus comparing one series of movies to a whole genre is.....not well thought out :dahell:

Uh there have been three movies since TFA.
rogue one and TLJ thats 2, solo aint out yet.


While I agree that the MCU is this generations star wars rumours of star wars demise are greatly exaggerated. It seems fans bytch and moan online and in reviews but will still see it multiple times anyway I am guessing just to make sure the its truly shyt? I mean rogue one gets talked about as boring and that still made a billion. TLJ gets criticized for shyting on the franchise again a billion. Until solo pulls a JL lets just chill on the talk SW is done. Their fans seem to be wolves in sheep clothing
