In response to "but post Endgame, Marvels are also just down generally across the board (other than Sony’s Spidey stuff). not sure you can count on them to return to " by hollywood big shot

Definitely not, and Marvel won't get to those heights again.

Making more Marvel movies won't help studios and theaters.

Making a quality Pixar film people want to see might.
Making a quality Disney animation film people want to see might.
Making a few more mid-ranged films for Disney might.
Making a few more mid-ranged films for 20th Century Fox might.
Making a few more mid-ranged films for Universal might.
For Paramount.
For Sony.
For Amazon/United Artists.
For Warner Bros.

A lot of those things are happening in 2023. So, we'll find out if more films helps. I think it definitely will. But some amount of theaters will close eventually.

That's a LOT of pressure you're putting on Disney as the top four there. -- nm - David Dec 6, 11:28 4
- Elemental and Wish are wildcards, but not necessary for things to improve. - Inigo Dec 6, 11:49 3
  - Oh, 2023 pretty much has to be better by default, but the fundamental erosion isn't going away. - David Dec 6, 12:06 2
    - thank god Tom Cruise and Paramount never bought into this snake oil. theatrical will certainly continue to erode if you stop putting all your features - hollywood big shot Dec 6, 12:17 1
      - Oh, that's a good point. We've got one film skewing 2022 domestic box office by 12%. So maybe 2023 won't be that much better. -- nm - David Dec 6, 12:42
