    Most superheroes.

    EDIT: SJW admins confirms that I have indeed been downvoted by Superman and Spiderman

      Same LMAO they’re neat but I’ve always been so meh about them. And there’s not even like new ones, it’s always the same versions over and over again

        It’s been 30 minutes: time to reboot Batman again! Let’s spend half the runtime of the movie rehashing his origin story just in case there might somehow still be one single person on Earth who doesn’t know what Batman’s deal is.

        That’s the worst part for me, there are thousands upon thousands of superheroes to make movies about, but it’s always about the same ones. And you know what the sad part is? That every once in a while we get a different superhero with a cool movie/TV show and it either ends up becoming overused like Batman/Superman (e.g. Spider-Man, or Iron man) or it’s completely dropped and forgotten (e.g. Jessica Jones, or Spawn)

      Personally superhero movies aremy crowning achievement as far as willing suspension of disbelief goes.

      It’s fine that superheroes have powers and/or levels of combat expertise that would be impossible to achieve at their age WITHOUT superpowers. That’s just how it is.

      That they solve all major problems by punching people and acting as less murderous COPS, though? THAT’S what I have to force myself to overlook in order to enjoy the escapist silliness I’m watching 😄
