..to combat some threat to the world, and they defeated that threat, and just wanted to go back to their regular lives, do you think that the world would accept them? Would you?
I ask because I've seen something in the X-Men movies, and I'm just getting around to watching the Avengers movies tonight, and there is a running theme in these types of movies that some people distrust these people with extrahuman abilities. They just saved the whole durn world, and you think they're bad and dangerous? Need to be monitored and controlled? Must be liberals saying that in the films.
These are films that are derived from the comic books of my youth. If it was in there, I don't remember any backlash against the superheroes. I just remember the superheroes.
But as I think about it, I can see how certain sectors of people in our nation would feel threatened by people who represent Truth, Justice, and the American Way.
