You should definitely check out Insidious though.



A lot of people feel this way about super hero movies and want them to be more than JUST a cheesy superhero movie but I'm totally fine with that and this growing need for people to have more than what superhero movies were intended to be just rubs me the wrong way. Yes they might be good movies but they aren't the same as a good superhero movie. I haven't watched Logan yet so I'm not really commenting on Logan specifically just the general attitude from non comicbook fans and certain comic book fans.
I love cheesy comic book movies, but they need to branch out more and not be as reliant on the Marvel movie formula. More movies like Logan could help to make superhero movies a viable genre that might stand the test of time rather than being a bubble that will eventually burst.
