There's a lot riding on this one for Marvel and Disney. Questions have swirled about superhero fatigue (even with Superman's decent showing) and some wonder if the brand is overexposed. #FilmSky #Marvel #FilmTrends #Disney #Movies www.movienewspro.com/more-superhe...

Netflix is still trying to be everything for everyone. YouTube, in many ways, already is, but it’s done so by handing the reins to quirky creators and AI machines. How this plays out is going to be fascinating #FilmSky #Netflix #YouTube #FilmTrends #Streaming www.movienewspro.com/netflix-vs-y...
Netflix vs. YouTube
YouTube isn’t trying to out-Netflix Netflix. It’s playing a whole different game, letting its creators call the shots.

Super Hero Fatigue? Not So Fast. While many are tired of seeing the same old superhero stories told over and over again, it is clear that a huge fan base is still there. Unless the audiences stop showing up, expect more of the same. #FilmSky #Superman #DC #WarnerBros # www.movienewspro.com/su/

With Superman officially a hit ($125 million domestically over the weekend), it's safe to say that Warner Bros. is on a roll. Much will depend on the upcoming spinoff of the company’s TV units however. www.movienewspro.com/superman-to-... #MovieStocks #FilmIndustry #FilmSky #AlamoDrafthouse

Let’s be honest: no audience member wants to sit through 20, sometimes 30 minutes of ads and trailers before the movie starts. Especially as movies grow longer and longer, now pushing past the 3 hour mark. #AMC #FilmSky #Advertising www.movienewspro.com/why-amcs-fut...
