FoolishJester, exactly.

And Kilroy, you make some very valid points. I guess you're right about Sony, only 1 every 2 years. But Fox will be more along 1.5 per year probably. Between X-Men, FF, and Wolverine or any other mutant movies, it might be 1 movie one year, 2 the next. And Kevin Feige has said that he'd like it if at some point in the future they could move up to 3 a year. DC will also at least do 1 a year if they ever get their act together and get serious about Justice League. What I was saying is that I think they'll be producing that many movies a few years from now, not right now. I still feel the popularity will fall off somewhere from 2020-25. Maybe a few down years and then it'll come back into popularity. I'm just not sure if the "genre" (true, it's actually a mish-mash of genres) can quite sustain itself yet for a really long haul. If Avengers 2, Batman/Superman, and DoFP all do phenomenal, then maybe I'll change my mind, but I think we have to wait to see what happens over the next 2 years. Just think, what if somehow Age of Ultron actually tanks? What if X-Men: DoFP doesn't boost the X-Men's status back up? What if Batman vs. Superman is a failure? Easily could be, with a new actor taking over Batman, and MoS not quite achieving the success DC would have liked. Although chances are none of these will happen, it still could, and if say 2 of those don't do great, I could easily see trouble ahead unless their sequels can redeem them.
