It is pretty amazing how many Marvel comics-based movies are being made these days.
A second Captain America movie on its way hot off the heels of the Avengers movie and not that long after the first Captain America movie.
Spiderman having a 3-movie chain, and already a new reboot.
This leaves me with two observations:
1) DC Comics is really getting left behind in Marvel's dust.
2) Part of me misses the days of Robocop, Terminator, Rambo, Rocky, Indiana Jones, and Star Wars. In other words, Hollywood doesn't seem to be producing Hollywood-Original Sci-fi/Action movie series anymore. And it seems obvious to me that them milking comic book franchises (and Transformers) for all their worth is the main reason why...
