We know that it is fictional and made up. But there are some positive points why we should watch superhero movies.
Superhero movies usually have at least one important lesson to be learned, and that forms the basis of the movie. Here are a few things that you might get from a superhero movie.
1. It is motivational
Motivation is one thing we need on a regular basis, irrespective of the situation you are in. If you’re in a pool of debt, facing issues at home, unsatisfied with your job or just trying to achieve some kind of goal, motivation is important.
To find motivation, we do a number of things and watching movies is usually on the list. With many options, you can be sure that many movies will be motivational, while some others will be best for entertainment only. In this case, superhero movies are a safe option to get motivated, Rocky movies would be my second choice.
2. It teaches us that we should never give up
It is possible that things might go wrong at times and you might think that the best alternative you have is to quit. In this situation, think about what your favorite superhero would do. Superheroes never quit, and they keep fighting till the very end.
Quitting is easy, but if you choose the difficult path of fighting till the very end, you’ll be the real (super)hero.
3. Realizing the power of one
We often doubt ourselves, assuming that we are alone and a task cannot be completed by a single person. Superhero movies stress that one person can change the world and it is a fact. Look at success stories, and you’ll realize that many entrepreneurs have relied only on themselves, managing to convert the worst scenarios into the best ones.
You can be one of these superheroes and at least change your world, if not the whole world. There is no need for you to be dependent on someone else to take the lead. You can take the lead and let others follow.
4. Fighting Evil
Superheroes do what is right and they fight evil forces till the end.
What would you do if you see someone stealing an old person’s wallet? Helping them get the wallet back would be the right thing to do, but many of us turn a blind eye on the incident.
It might be difficult to save the world without superpowers, but we can at least try to do what is within our powers.
So, pick up your favorite Superhero Movie and start watching it today. If you do not have a favorite here are a few of my favorites.
