Should An X-Force Movie Be R-Rated? Here's X-Men Producer Simon Kinberg's View...
For superhero fans, the 1990s were a troubled decade. In the '90s, comic book writers and artists seemed to fall in love with the words 'dark' and 'gritty'. Desperately seeking to mirror the tone of Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns or Alan Moore's Watchmen, they introduced us to a far more brutal superhero world.

Four Signs The DC Extended Universe Is Getting Back On Its Feet!

Are We Still Reaching for the Stars? The Decline of the Movie Star Phenomenon
There has been an awakening... well for quite many years actually. The awakening in question is that people don't go to see movies solely because of a famous actor or actress attached to it anymore. Instead, the focus has shifted more from going to see movies for their starts to going to see movies because of their link to a franchise, their source material, director, the ideas behind them (perhaps even most importantly), critic reviews and so on. Who is acting in them, has become just one of the many factors and not the most important one.
