That’s a winner

Net profit of $414 million.

I think this person just took a stock market sentiment chart, and put some movie labels on top of it. So the fact that marvel is a box office success is " part of delusion".

Where this doesn’t work, is movies aren’t financial securities. They’re not traded above their utility, because of movies utility is the entertainment people get from it. People vote with their dollars, that is the measure of a movies utility.

I could see this argument working for boredom. You have your core fans, and they can get oversaturated, and lose interest. And you have the hangers on who only do what’s trendy, and they have zero attention span. But they follow with some delay. So there’s a window between your core audience losing interest, and overall society losing interest. That’s probably a 2 to 5 year gap. It’d be interesting to see sentiment analysis along those axes.

If you are a franchise That’s still successful but lost its core audience, you really got to work hard to find a new core audience before you lose public Goodwill
