The tech is just getting there where we can actually mimic the action we see in comic panels. And to be honest, Spidey, Supes and Batman were the only mega movies in the past that dominated movie theaters. Out of recent ventures Iron man and 300 have been the only ones to make money. The spirit, dark city, 30 days of night, punisher, watchmen, electra, daredevil, either never made serious cash or just never caught on.

Besides I see comic movies as adaptions just like book adaptions. It’s just hollywood drawing ( no pun intended ) from another source. As long as people feel it’s original and done well they’ll head to the box office.

But I seriouly hope there will be other movies as well (other Blockbuster-type movies). If Superhero movies take over the Blockbuster/”summer movie” realm it will either have to split into divergent genres or people will get sick of it all.
