Seriously, this kind of stuff is what makes most superhero movies/content so dumb. When they’re getting tossed through buildings and causing literally trillions of dollars of damage every fight, while magically not hurting innocents or getting the world pissed at them, it completely removes it from any chance of being even realated to the real world.
Some of the best super hero content is great specifically because they at least attempt to keep things grounded in mortal reality. Unfortunately, the only one I can think of right now that exemplifies it well is the blatantly obvious The Boys.
Hopefully others know of way more/better ones. I know some content creators understand this problem, so there has got to be more than a handful.
I think this is what The Incredibles does very well. It throws you into a world with super heros, makes you think they’re cool, then shows you what would actually happen to them when they start “saving” people and smashing up infrastructure. Probably one of the best super hero movies out there.
