hero dotus

“Very few things hap­pen at the right time, and the rest do not hap­pen at all. The con­sci­en­tious his­to­ri­an will cor­rect these de­fects.”
—Herodotus (cir­ca 484–circa 425 BC)
 

I think the lat­est D.C. films may get bet­ter as the trend of su­per­hero movies dies down.

Al­though I like them, I can’t watch a Mar­vel movie more than once. But D.C.’s films, even the bad ones, can be parceled out like an­tholo­gies.

Maybe it’s the Mytho­log­i­cal as­pect of D.C.

It feels like Herodotus is nar­rat­ing,
Sec­ond hand knowl­edge mis­re­mem­bered at times –
Won­der Woman (2017) is a great ex­am­ple of this.

As a read­er,
I ap­pre­ci­ate how Mar­vel ref­er­ences es­o­teric sto­ry arcs. Tho D.C. is still do­ing the es­sen­tials.

I can’t pick one over the oth­er be­cause their mere pres­ence still holds nov­el­ty.

Wow, a guy that can fly.
