Will Ferrell Shares His Thoughts On Comic Book Movies!
The star of the animated superhero spoof, Megamind, talks about whether he thinks there are just too many comic book movies being made which will eventually result in audiences becoming bored...
The actor was asked whether the fact there are four major superhero movies - Green Lantern, Thor, Captain America: The First Avenger and X-Men: First Class - coming out next summer means that audiences will become bored of the genre. Here's what he had to say:
"Well, who knows? Hollywood probably will at some point wear out the audience because that's the tendency. I don't know, maybe that genre is evergreen in the sense we're all looking for a hero. It's escapist type of entertainment and hopefully that's always going to play with people."
What do you think? Are you glad that all of these characters are making their way to the big screen or do you think Hollywood are overdoing it to the extent that regular movie goers will eventually get bored? I for one am glad to see all of these adaptations (apart from the ones from Fox, lol!) and don't see even non comic book fans getting fed up when we have amazing looking movies like Thor and Green Lantern on the way! Be sure to share your thoughts about this in the usual place!
