Unlike Superman, Batman is a hero in the dark. Due to his parents' death in maraud, Bruce Wayne started to be the nightmare of bad guys. Actually, Batman has no super power, and all he has is "Waynes are rich". Therefore, he catches bad people with cool cars and fancy technology, so he is like 007 in super heroes. Oh, I forgot... His most powerful weapon is the hate in his mind. Maybe it's just corresponding to his character, almost all his enemy have mental problems. Also different to most super heroes, his romantic history is complicated, Catwoman, Batgirl, and others... BTW, the character, Robin, is also a special point in Batman's stories.

Though Batman is going to become the super hero who has most movies, his movies never bring lots of money for companies. Those movies are much worse than the cartoon series. (The dark angel of revenge is gone in the movies...) Maybe that's the reason why the leading actor of each movie is different... (No one wanna be link with his movie any more...)

Peter Parker is much lucky than Bruce... He is the almost famous super hero belong Marvel. Of course, his movies are also the symbolic movies about super heroes in these few years, though in his stories, he is a poor photographer in a post office with sarcastic boss. However, who will care that, he has better movie producers, directors, and writers to make he become popular on silver screen. Also, even he is not going to have beautiful future with MJ in comic books, I don't think he will break up with MJ in movie... Tobey and Kirsten are always ready to have more Spider-Man movies, if it still has such box-office.

Well, about Spider-Man's stories, actually I almost only got from movies... Fortunately, unlike most movie series, the episode 2 is even better the episode 1. Depending on the great setup of stories, Spider-Man become much real than other super heroes on silver screen. People found identification from the weakness and paradox between Peter and Spider-Man and followed the stories to feel the path to become better. It's also a important reason for people keep seeing movies--Finding good things in our life.

Super Heroes I: Superman

I watched a old movie series, "Superman", in these two weeks. Though it's a long time ago when I watched those movies in the past, there're still many scenes I remember, of course, they include the time travel by rotating the Earth from the East to the West and the one with Superman become a normal person for Lois. These movies made the leading actor, Christopher Reeve, became a famous actor in the world, even after his accident. And the music of these movie were made by the most important movie theme composer, John Williams, who let people remember "Star Wars", "E.T.", and "Jurassic Park" from ears. If we talk about the special effect, this series may be incredible at 1980s, and I am very surprised that from the episode 1 to the episode 3, the movies are about 2 hours long! (The episode 4 is just about one and half hours.) They must spend a lot of money to make these movies... Even the episode 3 is actually a very boring movie... Maybe that's why the episode 4 become a shorter movie and its story is more compact...

Well, Superman is a strong, honor, loyal, and kind person. He leaved his homeland, Krypton, when he was just born, and under the radiation of our Sun, he has the super power. His romantic story is very simple that Lois is always there, and he is very lucky that he already doesn't have to keep his secret identity from the woman he loves by the writer's kindness. It may make other super heroes jealous! At least, Clark has a glasses which makes Bruse and Peter feel they are fool to wear so much... His stories are shown in many kinds of media, comic books, cartoons, TV films, movies. The 5th movie is also discussed for many years... (but it seems Batman has already gotten his 5th movie first and becomes the super hero who has most movies...)

He serves the same comic company with Batman (DC comics) for almost 70 years, but he is still the Americans' most favorite super hero... (He wears the flag color of United States...) Now, he still hides in Plant Everyday and is always ready to save the world!

人生是很有限的，
我們不會有機會得到最好的結果，
即便在上天的眷顧之下。
所以我們只能把握對自己真正重要的東西，
然後，努力不要讓自己放棄。
最後，期待在一番波折之後，
如果還保有這最重要的，那便是有福。

希望，在不完美的世界裡，我們仍能有退而求其次的選擇...
