Look! Up to the sky! It's a bird! It's an aircraft! That's a spoiler Warning for both Superman and Fantastic Four: First Steps ".

It is a good time for superheroes. For a while, a series of annoying, poorly written, hastily produced films gave the genre of fatigue and threatened to bring down the entire cinema -industrial complex of superhero. This summer, however, is different. Although not every movie was the winner of the box office (We failed, "Thunder*"), we have seen the most sincere and sincere superhero films for years have been going out in a short period of time. Although many fans would like to think that DC and Marvel are polar opposites, more often than not, they reflect each other. At the very least, this is the case with Jameseshes Gun "Superman" and The new, more hopeful, optimistic and cosmic takeover of Marvel's first family In "Fantastic Four: First Steps".

Although both films are very different - one starts its Chinese universe, the other approaches it to allegedly reset - they still have more in common than you think. Both are restarting the iconic superheroes - Superman and reinvention of human torch and the first DC and Marvel superheroes - which are very important for the history of their comic book publishers, and everyone has been in poor and unsuccessful films for the past 20 years. But their time in the sun came finally.

Like the Jamesei Gun movie "Superman", the new movie "Fantastic Four" throws us from the deep end and in a fully realized world of heroes. At the beginning of the film, a fantastic four has been active for four years (three in the Superman case) and the film spends a lot of time researching just how much it has changed because of their influence. Well, it seems that the fantastic four are the only individuals with power in this world - unlike Superman For centuries it has been inhabited by metahuman - But this is still a world that has already seen a lot of great stories about the superhero. The film begins with editing that explores the history of the heroic family and each of the many villains who have defeated them over the years-from the funny mole to the red spirit and his super-songs.

This means that proper film can focus on the heroes who face a major personal crisis that interrogates their place in the world, rather than just showing them that they are learning ropes. Everyone has complete control over their forces, and the tension comes from them must face the first threat that they can not only fight. Similarly, when we first meet Clark Kent in Superman, he has already earned the world Loveubeub and admiration and he is very confident in his abilities. That the film begins just minutes after his first defeat at Wei means that the character is going through an existential crisis and thinking about what his place in the world is, especially after he learned that his parents wanted him to rule over the earth.

Indeed, both films throw philosophical questions to the heroes through their own dynamics of characters. In "Superman", we see Lois and Clark argue on whether Superman should interfere with foreign affairsWhat authority does the superhero really have, and whether doing well exceeds the appropriate protocol - and the tension created by these conversations has an impact on their romance. In "Fantastic Four: First Steps", Sue and Reid argue what their "family" has to do with the world and whether that responsibility is more important than their commitment to each other.

At that moment, both films have a great focus on showing their heroes' influence on everyday people and showing that everyday people communicate with heroes. This is something that is only missing from the genre of superhero. Back in many, very early days of the Marvel film universe. This was an important part of the films, as we saw that the heroes save regular people all the time, attracted them to security and offered comfort as their worlds broke up around them. Today, it's almost completely lost, with the stakes so high that there is simply no room to care for individuals - that's why it's the reason "Thunderstorms*" felt so refreshing and emotionally fatal.

"Fantastic Four: First Steps" continues that with a big focus on the connection between the title group and the public, with a crowd gathering on the streets to cheer on the heroes when they leave the country to find a way to stop Galaktus or wake them up when they fail to do so. We see more of them, in fact, they save people during the story than they really beat the villains (in no small part because of the galcolus simply being too big a threat to beating, literally). Also, the whole "Superman" we see Clark goes out on the way to prevent any damage from coming to humans, saving children from rubble, saving a dog, and even the squirrel being destroyed by space Kiaiu. This approach makes the heroes look and more accessible and also truly heroic.

One of the best sequences in all "Fantastic Four: First Steps" includes Ben to be welcomed and mooded by a group of children who want him to raise a car (and then throw it). Meanwhile, a Superman citizen was honored when the "Big Blue Boy Scout" stood out of the food trolley for some delicious dishes. Forget about the fight against the big bad man, this is what it means to have superheroes.
