Marvel are obviously dominating cinemas right now with the movies, and the next few years will see Fox get in on the action with X-Men: Apocalypse, another Wolverine movie, and spinoffs starring Deadpool and Gambit. Warner Bros. are also hoping to establish their own Cinematic Universe starting with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad in 2016. Warner Bros. chairman and CEO Kevin Tsujihara isn't worried about moviegoers getting bored with superheroes though, and he had this to say at Wednesday's Morgan Stanley Technology, Media & Telecom Conference. "The key thing is that the movies and the television shows and the games, everything looks very different …you have to be able to take advantage of the diversity of these characters." How will they differentiate themselves from Marvel then? "The worlds of DC are very different," he added. "They’re steeped in realism, and they’re a little bit edgier than Marvel’s movies." Do you agree with that assessment? Share your thoughts in the usual place.
