My Super X-girlfren


She has no wing but she can fly high. She has no big ears but she can hear whispers from 10 blocks down the road. She has no muscle arms but she can easily pick up a giant shark. She is pretty she is cool. Thanks God she is not my x-girl friend.

I went to watch a movie today regarding a girl with extraordinary power. Overall the movie was ok. Not particularly hilarious. Not particularly touching. But it was rather entertaining. It is one of those movies where you would chuckle a little when you remember some bits of the scenes.

I am thinking, why does Hollywood always portray superheroes this way? Look at these comparisons: Clark Kent and Superman, Peter Parker and Spiderman and Nelson and Mr. Incredible. It seems like all superheroes must either have no fashion sense like superman (you know, wearing red underwear outside and all), a nerd like Spiderman or a loser like Mr. Incredible to disguise themselves from being recognized. There must be a better “secret identity” for our superheroes, don’t you think? Maybe not for batman though, Bruce Wayne is pretty cool... hm... but wait, batman doesn't have any superpower... hm... my first conclusion is still valid.

Maybe Hollywood should consider making a cool person a superhero. This person can have great fashion sense, straight As student, successful entrepreneur and save the world all in the same time.

Yeap, I like that idea...
