    TBH, I tired of super-hero universes after the 1st Avengers movie, and Spiderman was never a favorite anyway. I'm just not all that interested in time travel, alien kind of movies, so I lost interest fast. Now its more of a curiosity to see how far Disney can milk this particular cash cow lol

    Though I've never truly been all that interested in super heroes or sci fi in general. I've seen a few movies over the years, watched a few episodes of a few TV shows (though I acknowledge that the only reason I watched a couple of Babylon 5 episodes was because of Bruce Boxleitner :D ), read a couple of books, but I just couldn't really get into the whole aliens and space hopping genre. I tend to prefer historical period pieces up through the American Old West - which might be why high fantasy appeals to me, as those are usually set in a medieval type world.

    You might like FireFly than even though it's Sci-Fi.

    I’ve been told that by several people and I’ve seen clips. It’s on my “to watch” list for sure!
