Before the MCU took off, the Sam Raimi “Spider-Man” trilogy was the peak of superhero movies.

Over spring break, I convinced a friend to tag along for a “Ready or Not 2” screening. I knew nothing about the movie — I still haven’t even seen the first one — but the trailers interested me, and I was due for a trip to the theater.The audience filled less than half of our showing, which I simultaneously questioned and celebrated.

According to rating reports, total viewership has declined by three percent since 2024. The number of viewers ages 18 to 49 has decreased by 16%.
