Know It All - Superhero Fatigue: Why Are We Still Watching?

In this episode of Know-It-All, CCBC Professor Eric Cotton explores our complicated relationship with superhero movies. Despite dominating the box office for decades, superhero films have never won the Academy Award for Best Picture. So why do audiences continue to flock to them? About the Host: Eric Cotton is a professor of Chemistry at the Community College of Baltimore County. He holds a PhD in Computational Chemistry, loves science fiction, and admits that he probably works too much. When he does have free time, you might find him playing video games or watching soccer with his wife. Music Credit: Intro and outro music: “Soul Groove” by Josh Woodward.
