Everyone has a dream of being a superhero. At some point in your life, you’ve imagined yourself saving the world from destruction with the help of some super power only you can control. What makes this fantasy important, is that no matter your background, you’ve felt it was possible (at least in your dreams).
This is what has made comic book team up movies so successful. In the past not everyone could envision themselves as part of herioc efforts to save Earth. In today’s environment, everyone is represented and in multiple facets. Whether you’re disabled, rich, poor, black, white, male or female, every person has an important role to play. Because of this, new comic book movies are making big bucks. The Avengers has racked in billions alongside movies such as Suicide Squad, Guardians of the Galaxy, and others.
As story lines expand so to do characters and the investment we as an audience put in to them. No matter your age, these new films are a representation of you. No matter what type of story line you’re in to, from small scale neighborhood heroes like The Defenders, worldwide heroes such as The Avengers and The Justice League, Intergalactic stars like Guardians of the Galaxy, magical players such as Doctor Strange, or if you like bad guys such as Suicide Squad, there is an option for you to sit down and enjoy yourself.
