This article discusses five superhero films that, despite their creativity and potential, failed to gain the recognition they deserved. It highlights the regrets of having been overshadowed by more successful entries and the importance of finding the courage to make unconventional choices within the superhero genre.
We are in a day and age where you can't take a step in the entertainment field in any direction without stumbling into a superhero movie.
Whether that's Jared Leto's atrocious 'Morbius,' or the latest iteration of Superman (à la James Gunn), the superhero fever in cinemas doesn't seem ready to die any time soon. As someone who's been sick of that in the past 5 years or so, I get just a little bit of satisfaction when I see a run-of-the-mill superhero flick underperform at the box office — and a lot more when it's one that actually deserves to fail miserably and should've never gotten made in the first place (see 'The Marvels' or 'Joker: Folie à Deux').
On the other hand, I'm genuinely disheartened when an ambitious, daring, and atypical superhero film doesn't get its due, as viewers dismiss it and fail to appreciate its inventiveness or outside-the-box approach
