Hangman Page is tired of superhero films dominating the movie theater schedule.
Ahead of his big AEW Championship match against CM Punk at Double or Nothing, Hangman Page sat down with Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful to discuss a wide variety of subjects. When asked if he’s a fan of the comic book movie genre, Page admitted that he wasn’t and he’s tired of the “superhero stuff.”
“No, not at all,” Hangman Page admitted. “Please forgive me if this annoys you or pisses you off. I’m tired of the superhero stuff, man. Every movie is a superhero movie these days… Hey, if you like it, that’s cool. I’m glad you’re probably having a ball these past 20 years, but damn, like, I just want to go see something original that ain’t about flying around and shit.”
The Anxious Millenial Cowboy went on to admit that he actually fell asleep at one of the Thor movies. He didn’t confirm which one of the three films put him to sleep, but we can only assume it was Thor: The Dark World.
“I’ve watched some of them. You know, I fell asleep, I think at the Thor movie,” Hangman Page revealed. “It wasn’t bad or anything. I was just so tired. I just like got home from a trip, and I just couldn’t stay awake. So yeah, I don’t know, man. I’m tired of the superhero stuff. I feel like those big blockbusters that used to come out in the day about just random stuff. They don’t happen anymore. I know Forrest Gump is always people’s go-to but like I feel like they don’t make movies about just some random stuff like that anymore. I miss that. I’m sorry if you’re a superhero person, I’m very happy for you this past 20, but I’m over it. Sorry.”
While Hangman might be over it, comic book movies are more popular than ever. The fourth Thor film, Thor: Love and Thunder, is set for release on July 8. Check out the new trailer that just dropped below:
