Paragone ,

All of them: I want authenticity,

and "superheroes" are fake human-meaning, engineered to push distractine power/ego-fantasy instead of actual-human development.

Read both of John Truby's books, "The Anatomy of Genres", & "The Anatomy of Story", and become much competenter in what story/movie makers should be doing,

and then consider how much is being invested in preventing realism-of-context from being known by mass-media consumers..

..and then understand the long-term consequences of deliberately/systematically diverging mass-awareness from what real meaning, real human context, is, .. through decades..

It's part of a whole-class, or whole-population, suckerpunching, but it seems to be of unconscious, not conspiracy, intent.

Pretence-programmed populations are less realistic & less reality-competent.

Bollywood & Hollywood both produce divorce-from-reality.

That isn't required, for story, or human-meaning, is it?
