LOL I know but superman is supposed to be all sunshine and roses . they are ying and yang type characters not anymore now there both all moody .
To quote a horse
"No sir, I don't like it ." .
yep
,
heroes acting good and liking each other isn't dramatic enough. they have to be moody and throw punches and do destruction and kill in order for people to like them these days.
I've been watching a lot of classic he-man lately...where characters are happy to work together to solve problems, don't fight each other, and everyone is on equal footing no matter who they are..
if He-Man where rebooted for today, it'd look totally different.
teela wouldn't be allowed to be saved, or carried off as injured. she'd walk on a broken leg and cause it to get worse just to appear independent.
Skeletor would have a yellow/blue face to appear diverse.
Man At Arms would be Woman At Arms.
The He-Man Teela romance would be a thing of the past and turn more into a competition..
there would be no king and queen, only a queen.
orko would be taller, not float, less annoying and more dignified like the most interesting man in the world ;o)....
Cringer wouldn't talk at all, because, now that would just be goofy, wouldn't it? he'd be a non character...
ugh....same goes for superman.
Superman works best when he's a beacon of light as he was created to be. change him into something else and he might as well be batman with powers.
if you try to turn billy into something he isn't might as well not do shazam at all.
