Part 7/10:
The disappointing numbers have not gone unnoticed in the wider financial world. Outlets like Bloomberg and CNBC have published stories emphasizing the Marvels' historic slump:
Bloomberg called it a "Marvel's flop at the box office," marking a new low for the franchise.
CNBC reported it as "the worst opening weekend for any MCU film at $47 million," and noted that Disney and Marvel Studios are struggling to reconnect with audiences post-Endgame.
Further analysis by industry experts points to a profound shift in audience tastes. While ticket prices have increased over the years, the inflation-adjusted box office for The Marvels suggests a stark decline in theatrical interest—pointing more toward audience dissatisfaction than external economic factors.
