The superhero movies have adapted that ole comic book industry standard: the house style.
I've stopped going to see superhero movies and, well, big blockbusters of almost all stripes for largely the reasons you listed. These types of movies usually aren't bad in the least, but in the end they're forgettable and I'd rather spend my time on stuff I actually like (and/or trying out new media to see if I like it). It's there, I know what it is, I've seen it - unless it sounds really interesting I don't have to got see the new one.
I'll see Ant Man because Wright's awesome. I'll see whatever GDT makes. After Cars 2 I'm not even making a point to see every Pixar film. I hear that Brave is okay, but I still haven't seen it.
