Steven Spielberg recently spoke to The Associated Press, making an update to remarks he made two years ago about the movie industry's predicted implosion due to an over-reliance on summer blockbusters. The publication quotes him as follows:
"I still feel that way. We were around when the Western died and there will be a time when the superhero movie goes the way of the Western. It doesn't mean there won't be another occasion where the Western comes back and the superhero movie somedays returns. Right now the superhero movie is alive and thriving. I'm only saying that these cycles have a finite time in popular culture. There will come a day when they mythological stories are supplanted by some other genre that possibly some young filmmaker is just thinking about discovering for all of us."
