You know who else I've gone off? Fricking Wolverine. Like, I kind of love him still but he gets soooooo much attention. There are some way cooler X Men!
I used to think Wolverine was the absolute man. Hell yes, razor-sharp claws that can cut through anything, a badass "Screw you I'll do what I want" attitude, and a mutant power that makes him almost unkillable.
Recently, it's begun to dawn on me that Wolverine is obscenely overpowered. In addition, his backstory is the first example you find in the dictionary when you look up the word "Clusterf***."
Marvel recently killed him off, but they've already just come out and said that they're eventually bringing him back. I wish they'd let him stay dead; his character has ceased to hold any intrinsic meaning, becoming essentially a caricature of the 90's stereotype of the "Arrogant Doesn't-Play-By-The-Rules Guy."
As for Superman, I would be all but entirely turned off of him at this point if it weren't for one Mr. John Williams.
It's a fact of existence that there is no piece of music that says "Superhero" more effectively.
You can't really not like Superman, if there is any of the child you once were left in you.
Not liking the newest movie is entirely possible, however, since it's (as I understand) very off-putting to many fans. I may never know, as what I've heard gives me no desire to see it.
