Next Screening? “The Marvels” make their bow

Has the Marvel Studios team lost its mojo? Have comic book movies finally oversaturated the market (all over Disney TV, etc.) and jumped the shark? Run their course?

Maybe. I liked Brie Larson as “Captain Marvel.” I’ve enjoyed Samuel L. Jackson in an eyepatch. Up to a point.

But none of the trailers to this annointed Blockbuster of the Fall have moved the needle for me. At all.

Lowered expectations couldn’t hurt, as this exhausted genre has transcended “entertainment value” as long-overdue “inclusion” becomes its rai·son d’ê·tre.

Fingers crossed.
