Spider-Man is also the only one that really got a "real" theatrical release. Right around the holidays, at that. While the others did have some time in theaters, it was during a time where theaters were struggling pretty hard and the average movie goer was discouraged from going out. If I remember right, Shang-chi was technically the highest grossing theatrical release for awhile just because there were only like 3 other movies to compete against. Spider-Man is not only a big name, but it had huge nostalgia marketing by also advertising itself as a quasi sequel to two other series.Without watching the stream, I'm just going to assume that it's them doing the "go woke go broke" cope again or something like it.
I don't know about Tom but the other two Spider-Men are Jewish. Also, Spider-Man has always been a big character. The other characters have always been supporting characters at best. Plus, no one knows how to make a good movie anymore. Not even a lot of Asians want to see an Asian guy go on some shitty CGI filled adventure with "strong women"
Black Panther 2 will likely make a shit ton of money and the next Thor and Guardians will too. The main issue, they are no longer using A-tier comic book characters and are using their shitty bottom of the barrel "diverse" characters no one has ever heard of, yet alone gives a fuck about.
I think Marvel is still at the point where they're freely printing money. Even if a movie ends up being underwhelming they never really bomb. Plus, they still have some big draws. If Shang-Chi 2 throws a Loki cameo in the trailer, people will want to see it, and I'm sure an Avengers titled movie will still pull in crowds.
