This just my feeling but I really think studios didn't think there was a market for adults in the comic movie space which is crazy when you think about it because the kids who grew up on these characters have been adults for a few decades nowRated R movies would definitely be their lane.
I always though TDK would have been better rated R
I never understood why more of these movies didn't go this route. But yeah this was good
But the general train of thought appears to be they felt they had to market toys and shit to kids like adults don't buy the same toys to collect.
Idk
