Every mega star has had his misses, that doesn't mean stardom is dead, it is simply becoming less common.

DC's failures since MoS have to do with their incompetent creative team. If Marvel can make a bunch of C-list characters like Ant-Man and GotG headline profitable blockbusters movies, they can too. Investing in those properties is only throwing money down the well if they don't know what they're doing.

Well that marvel success proves my point, its the age of properties, not superstars.
No one is opening big on just who is staring anymore, its been that way for a while.
The last superstars were Cruise and Will smith and now even they have lost that good will

Alden Ehrenreich Playing Han Solo is Proof That Movie Stardom is Dead

I'd say dicaprio is truly the last star left. Word to the Revenant

Tom Cruise knows it, that is why is back to genre films and going with franchises.
There is a reason he is doing Top Gun 2 now, staring in a reboot of The Mummy and went back to Mission Impossible.
Oblivion and Edge of Tommorrow were flops.
Reacher was his success and it only budgeted for 60 mil.
His superstar days are over, industry has changed..

Leo doesn't really have any big blockbusters smashes. he has a lot of critical darling films but no huge trendsetting movies to his name outside of Titanic.
Hell after titanic the best movie he had was with Tom hanks in Catch Me if you can.
I somewhat agree with your point about cruise going back to franchises. But then again MI is a franchise he pretty much created.

I feel some type of way when people call EoT a flop. It still made 100 milly domestic and 370m ww. I get marketing costs but still

Dicaprio just did 526 million WW with the Revenant. No one else could have done that. It's even more impressive seeing as its the type of movie better suited to have come out in like 1992 instead of 2016.

And Inception did 825M. And was a blockbuster
:umad: Inception haters

Movie stardom still exists, it just isn't as dominating anymore as it was in the old days. And the article makes little sense of general principle because Harrison Ford himself wasn't a star when he was cast as Han Solo. Sure, the role became iconic but that doesn't mean only a star could play it, in fact, a "star" may just take away from the role.

EoT is a flop, didn't make its money back.
Revanant didn't break even at the theater.

Yeah Inception did big money, but while I dislike the movie, I think it had more to do with the Nolan brand, just like Intersteller, than Leo.

:ohhh: The female fan base is going to go wild for this. They been asking for a solo flick for a minute now.

Marvel Studios 'Committing' to a Black Widow Solo Movie


:ld: I think its a little late for a Black Widow movie (would've been interesting after CA:TWS or before) considering they've already used the character so much, and :pachaha: at the female fanbase, I never seen women rocking BW gear.

But I understand somewhat, we got an Antman movie who nobody wanted, so Marvel don't have an excuse.:wtb:
