Wich one is the last superhero movie that have you seen? How would you describe the psyche of the
hero himself?
According to this question, the last superhero movie that I have seen is The avengers. It is a Marvel movie
which exposes the trouble in gathering extraordinary people with the mission of protecting the humanity
from unexpected problems such as alines ivasion or battling gods. I think it is some kind of commercial easy
to understand by everyone, but you can also see beyond the surface of the film, a true conflict between
distinguish between evil and good. There are 5 superheroes acthing in this movie: Tony Stark Aka. Iron-Man;
Hulk; Captain America; Hawk-eye; Thor; and Black Widow.

In my opinion the most interesting characters are Tony Stark and Captain America.. Tony Stark looks alike a
narcissistic and millionaire scientific icon, while Captain America is an “old-school” hero with 40's
mentality, whom is surprised with the new era that he is living in after being frozen for almost 70 years.

The new heroes psyche is more interesting than the old one because everyone can feel reflected with it
because its more “human” and usual than the another one which is cap-based. Even though heores has
weaknesses they don't stop them, giving them a reason to become stronger so they can overtake them. I think
this movie philosophy is way better than the other one, but i think it's pretty overused nowadays, so people
can get used to it giving as a result, a general reject to this kind of movie guion, like it happened before with
the old one. To prevent this result, super-heores movies should be less predictible so they can surprise the
spactators. For example, they could break the tradition and make evil win over the good sometimes, instead
the same battles where our beloved hero suffers a lot before he wins with a last blow to the powerful villain.

Anyway as the american psyche keeps evolving, heroes will evolve either, and they will because they are
important in the culture. They are a good example of the western moral and ethics which are commonly
being judged, and having high standards like heroes are useful to support this culture.

In conclusion, superheroes like Iron-Man are good examples to everyone by showing that although you are
not perfect, you can keep improving to be a better individual
