Interesting, their first Muslim superhero is a female teenager, and she doesn't have her hair covered. An odd way to gain popularity with the male-dominated fundamentalist Muslim world.

Here's a totally non-spiritual topic...rant, really. Am I the only person in America sick to death of superhero movies? They're loud, bloated, poorly written (almost zero dialogue), violent, and manipulative. And, not only that, some of them (the awful Man of Steel, for example) mess with the mythology of the characters!

I never cared for any super hero stuff  :(

 

I only have one Hero and He's my Lord - the God Almighty!  :)

This past weekend, we got a couple of real life superheros in arizona. A 2 yr old girl fell into a septic tank. Two men jumped in after her. When they got her to the surface she wasnt breathing but was revived and is recovering in a hospital. One of those two men was just released from prison.

quite the contrary, I love superhero movies. My favorite, are the newest batman movies (batman begins, the dark knight, and the dark knight rises) I find those particularly good, because I think they show mankinds ability to choose right from wrong, even under difficult circumstances. They do have a strong plotline, and I really appreciate the clear line between good and evil (unlike so many other movies out of hollywood these days) I also enjoy Thor and iron man but not as much as the batman trilogy. I didn't mind the latest 2 superman movies, but they werent exceptional. I enjoyed the first 3 spiderman movies, for much the same reason as the batman movies-good plot, clear lines between good and evil, and shows peoples ability to choose right from wrong. I didn't much care for the newest, but I wouldn't call it bad.

Why, Why, Why???? Why do they always leave batman tied up to die and then leave before he is dead????  He always finds a way out just before the dynamite blows him sky high.   Are they not able to figure that out after all this time?  :lightbulb2:

People there just movies. I won't go out of my way to see a superhero movie, I like movies that are historically accurate to the era that they are portraying.
