Marvel Superheroes

            This may just be because I saw Captain America recently, but I have been noticing that there are A LOT of Marvel Superheroes that have been made into movies, and almost all of the movies are fantastic (I admit that I havn't seen them all so I can't say that they are all fantastic, only the ones that I have seen were). Below is a list of movies from Wikipedia that have been made featuring the Marvel superheroes.

                To be fair, Marvel comics has around 7000 different superheroes to choose from but still! If a company can make this many movies about this many different things, they have got to be pretty intuitive. It makes me wonder what the inspiration is for all of these writers. In my experience, the ideas for heroes come out of a need for something good and pure, which, in today's society is sometimes hard to find. (388)
