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.
No but seriously, I find Black Panther a bit redundant. Maybe the MCU will represent him a little better though. Before I scrolled down to see the entire first page smothered with Superman hate, I was going to say I watched Man of Steel last night and it changed my mind a little bit. His cape was still a little ridiculous, but at least they explained everything else. I can't really see how Batman is going to tie into the universe though, and I can't see myself saying "Oh boy I'm glad we got Ben Affleck instead of Christian Bale".
If you don't have to be polite about your jokes, I don't have to be polite about mine.
Sorry for late reply, I didn't see this because of the forum downtime. I have no idea how you could interpret my post as mean spirited (or impolite) in the slightest. I figured the intentional bad grammar/typos and poorly thought out jab would have been clue enough.
I actually have no problem with Super Man. I don't consider myself a fan or anything, and I've read a few comics that got creative with his origin story, but past that I am just kind of along for the ride.
