Spider-Verse was probably the big one I missed. That and Oppenheimer.

I honestly can't think of anything for next year that I'm overly excited about either now that I think about it.

I just think I've hit franchise fatigue. I'm getting bored of seeing the same franchises being rebooted, or milked into the ground, and I'm going to make a conscious effort to watch more "new" stuff (Or new to me at least). I'll still watch and enjoy the stuff I currently do, but I'm ready for something different.

Do you really think they're saying it without cause? Do you think they aren't incredibly afraid of what a US civil war in this day and age would look like, what atrocities it would lead very quickly to?

Depends on the side saying it. One side are terrified because they know full well what it will lead to. The other side are salivating at the prospect at killing the "wrong" type of Americans.

(Although not really as they've put Texas and California on the same side, which seems a deliberate attempt to avoid being too close to current politics)

I think some of them honestly think the other side will just fold and the war will be short and inconseqential.
They're mostly deluded.
