This week on episode #179 of The Harsh Language Podcast, we dive into Spider-Man: Brand New Day and what its massive box office success says about the idea of superhero fatigue. Audiences clearly haven't stopped showing up for comic book movies, so maybe the problem was never the genre in the first place. We break down what Brand New Day gets right, how it compares to the recent wave of superhero movies, and whether its success proves audiences aren't tired of superheroes, they're just tired of superhero movies that don't give them a reason to care.

We also talk about how Silo has evolved into a completely different show, why the world needed Ted Lasso back, and whether the ongoing Paramount situation could be creating problems for James Gunn.
