Before I begin, I want to take a little time to
state my condolences to the family and friends of those victims of the Colorado
massacre in the movie theatre. My prayers go out to all of them. This heinous
act was beyond deplorable, and completely unnecessary. It’s still unknown why
this happened, but hopefully justice will be served.
As many of you who follow us here on this board
know, a popular genre of films we love to review, critique, and in some cases
criticize, are the hero/superhero archetype films. And within the last decade
or so, there’s been a resurgence of sorts, with this genre.
