Superheroes - A Documentry On Real Life Heroes

[ApocaRUFF]

So, it's no surprise, with increase of live-action superhero films coming out lately, especially the hit film "Kick-***", that people have decided that they can make a difference, especially if they are wear a costume.

A journey inside the world of real life caped crusaders. From all over America, these self-proclaimed crime fighters, don masks, homemade costumes and elaborate utility belts in an attempt to bring justice to evildoers everywhere.

This documentary is pretty bad ***. Especially if you were a fan of the film Kick-***. It gives you a look in to the lives and work of people who decide to put on a costume to make a difference in their community. It follows a wide range of 'heroes'.

From the anti-heroes, to the crazy old men, to geeks in costume, to people who just wear a mask while doing community service and helping the poor.


Here is a trailer:

I'd like to point out this "real life superhero" thing was actually a thing before live action super hero films became the "hit thing" for hollywood. It's just now they're getting more exposure.

Indeed. But it's been on the rise for quite a while. I remember watching news reports and such from back in 2006 on it. And I am pretty sure that there have been guys doing it since the 80's. That's just an assumption tho.

God, when I first saw that "superhero" stuff coming to the Germanz speaking area, I soo from the depth of my heart hoped it would be a fad that dies a horrible death, before everyone talks about it. Man was I dissapoint.

First I was thinking; How can you guys even mentally digest that garbage?

Now this just tops it off...

@this is only now getting attention;
Not attention from me. It's being pushed on my plate. I don't blame those dudes for doing what they do, but I am astonished by how much the everyday guy is a sucker for something like that.
Like "Dude, on Mad Man, they life such awesome lifes".
No shit Sherlock. They do because they don't waste it watching other peoples lifes one TV. (Sorry to say "waste", but really, I know more than enough people who have nothing else to talk about at all, nothing, like "how are you doing" gets the reply of "Man I found this new game/show/movie" every time; So that's how you are doing? Wtf...)
