A lot has to do with life changing(wife/kid, different priorities), but more so, I just don't care about comic book movies or shows anymore. There's just way too many and it all looks the same to me. Not to mention with all the CGI, they just look like cartoons to me.

I know there's plenty of good ones being made and they're finding ways to keep it fresh, but I'm just talking about my level of interest. Virtually none at this point.

Think I've been to 1 movies in theatres in 2017(IT). I used to go to 3-4 a month easily.
A lot of this extends to the current movie making process. I'd agree that movies have become more formulaic, with very few movies offering anything different. This extends not only to the story but also to the way they look.

One of the biggest issues for me is that orange and teal hue that every movie now seems to have. The weird color pattern with muted greens and blues, instantly makes me lose interest.
