Was a lot of fun to make this, pulled from a lot to make it all come together, hope you guys dig the video, and if you do maybe share it around :D
in your opinion do you think marvel should recast Tchalla just asking
Could you tell the background music name starting from 6:14?
@@konarkaron7139 I dont know the music, it was downloaded months ago and the file name is not the name of the actual song
I love your video, there is heroes from the world of anime.
Heroes should be more than just gods they should be more about moral conflict and personal issues
Which comes my take of a hero i want to play involving a rockstar who's arch enemy is not a supernatural entity but a supernatural force who operates within nature entirely
Why not tell a story about nurture vs. nature in that the hero is saving himself to save others whereas the villain is centered in nature and his goal is to engulf the world in darkness because of how people treat themselves and one another
“Everybody loves a hero. People line-up for them, cheer them, scream their names and years later they’ll tell how they stood in the rain for hours just to get a glimpse of the one who taught them to hold on a second longer. I believe there’s a hero in all of us, that keeps us honest, gives us strength, makes us noble, and finally allows us to die with pride, even through something we have to be steady and give up the things we love the most, ever our dreams.”
- May Parker, Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 2
One of the best movie speeches
"Cynicism is not wisdom and optimism is not naivity."
THANK YOU, PERFECT.
Cynicism isn't wisdom, but optimism is definitely naivete, to believe in a future without sufficient capacity to bring it about, is delusional.
@EugenTemba Respectfully disagree. It's more of so being *blindly* optimistic rather than being just optimistic. I believe optimism is incredibly healthy and positive for both yourself and others around you if kept in check while also allowing yourself to mature.
A hero, for me, is someone that saves lives, no matter whose they are.
I always saw characters with the no killing rule as heroes because they stopped the villain from hurting someone without needing to resort to killing, not because it was easy but because they believed it was right.
A hero seeks to save ALL lives, both of the innocent and the guilty, so they can still live and hopefully change for the better. I believe that is why most of the heroes that are defined or originate from the trauma of someone's death prefer not to kill. This character saw someone's life taken, all the possibilities of dreams, change, feelings and memories that could be disappeared in the blink of an eye.
They may seek vengeance at first, but those who decide not to inflict the same that was inflicted to their loved ones know that life matters and people can change.
oh yeah.....THEN WHAT IS AN APPLE!?
We ESPECIALLY need them now, more than ever, since my faith in humanity has been dwindling as the years pass.
Bro 💀😂😂😂😂😂
Me too brother, humanity is getting really hard to empathize with lately
Agreed
Facts
But isn't that's why we need God and faith? God gives us an idea to strive towards; a moral standard to follow, a holy figure like Christ and the persistence of the apostles and old testament prophets. Faith because faith is long suffering, patient, and ultimately triumphs over evil in due time. Especially, now in these cynical, real times
Great to see someone talking about why Heroes are important. Lately it feels like everyone is giving up on Superheroes and giving into cynicism and just bitching about the misery of the world. We need optimism and hope and Heroes represent that. Of course Heroes are not limited to DC and Marvel.
Anime, video games and films have so many great Heroes that represent virtues I respect: honour, dignity, empathy, compassion and kindness.
It doesn’t help that marvel and dc seem to have fallen in the same cynicism and bitching
They antagonize both the fans and there own colleagues
And it shows in there story
And that without even talking with everyone obsession with deconstruction even if they don’t even know how to make a good one
I really hope one day super hero’s returns to there glory
Exactly. I especially love redemption arcs, like Zuko. It inspires hope that no matter how much you messed up or how bad you were not only is there still good in you but you can still change for the better.
I have been depressed for a past 6 months after full online class. I dont feel like i have friend, I hate group project. I was super narcissistic and cynical. I don't feel down anymore, but still have depressing thought daily. But after watching the vdo, I recognized that why i have to intentionally choose to live in the world that make me feel down. I don't have to care. I am inspired to improve upon myself. If I act like them, one day I will be a hero. I can be a hero like those inspired me. You vdo opened my eye, and for that I thank you, Carl Jung and Superman.
The need for control is what makes a villain. To Para quote Alfred from BvS... "That feeling of powerlessness that turns good men cruel"
Nothing has ever summed up heroism than With Great Power comes Great Responsibility. It brings even more questions about what is Power and what is Responsibilty.
Also it's just great life advice
Power doesn't corrupt people as some would think. It just reveals what's already there.
One of my favorite scenes in any movie is when Thor calls Mjolnir in Endgame when he’s back on Asgard and says “I’m still worthy.” It’s a great reminder that even at our lowest points we still can do great things when all seems lost.
I read Kingdom Come for the first time a few months ago. Truly inspirational. I’m a pretty basic dude. My favorite characters are always the main heroes. Luke Skywalker, Neo, Harry Potter, and of course the greatest hero, Superman.
I think being a hero is about a willingness to sacrifice for a greater good instead of yourself.
This is why you see multiple villains lamenting their sacrifices where as the heros are content as long as their higher purpose is achieved instead of their personal one. The green goblins tech for example could have still been valuable to humanity, it just wouldn't have fulfilled his fantasy.
I choose this trait specifically because I think its a make or break trait. Anti heros often struggle with this trait as well.
We need heroes, especially in todays day and age, because they remind us that even in great darkness, there will always be a light at the end of the tunnel, to let you know that everything will be ok
Nothing boils my blood more than hearing someone in person say Superman is boring because "He defeats his enemy easily." As if they could do the same. Power and knowing how to use it are two totally different things. Power doesn't corrupt people, it just reveals what's already there. Something Superman believes in. We must return to the way of distinguishing the simple understanding of Good vs Evil, because when you trick yourself into morally grey areas you start to lose to yourself to evil.
When they mean easily they mean in the physical sense. You have to admit he is OP, even if the point is his character, people these days want a hero that is more relatable and that can struggle. The Hercules "let me throw a mountain" type of hero isn't in favor. We want mortal men, not gods.
@@MALICEM12 That is true, he is OP, but those same people would look at Saitama and view him as relatable. Not untrue, but they aren't opening their minds enough in my book. Besides, Superman deals with foes stronger or on par like him all the time. But I get what you mean. The problem with relatability these days, at least to me, is that nobody wants to "crane their necks" and aspire to be better. Plus, they're the same kind of people who put Batman on a pedestal, when his stories are the same over the years.
Superman is the first ever superhero
@@carolenelene7631 Not really, He's the first to inspire others, But Definitely not the first superhero
I feel that you are right as power doesn’t corrupt people, they were always corrupt and power just helps reveal their true selves to the world
Truly inspiring video, and I would defenitely show it to the people who always say to me that comic book heroes and their stories are mainly for children, then why are you still reading them. Because there is something bigger behind those story, they teach us important facts about life, the best of them have important moral lessons, and almost all of them are about hope and good eventually winning because his/her determination and will to never give up on fighting for the better and for others. These heroes really inspire us that we can be better even in our normal life. My favourite is Spider-Man because while he is a hero, he is also just a person like on of us readers, that making him relatable, and completly shows that we regular people can do better too, and can help the world and others. No wonder he is my favourite fictional character since I was 2 years old. Thank you for this meaningful video, and also will you make a video on Batman: The Animated Series?
As someone who was and is a fan of pop culture and mythology (mostly by pop culture) i feel ABSOLUTELY ASTONISHING how Superheroes today transformed from "nerd stuff" to be a a symbol of myth and why they inspires, why they inspire us...os like this video shows, how we just discovered (or remembered) that this are just modern myths, that they are just a pillar of humanity: stories that we hear and we learn to be better people based on the values like justice or love the myths repeat over and over again for generations...to built good people.
Thats why mostly of modern entertainment its trash...WE HAVE FORGOT WHY HEROES EXIST.
For morality...for caring about good...and truth, universal truth...not OUR truth.
We truly do need heroes.
Hero's are an escape, a way for our imaginations to run wild and make us believe that anything is possible, personally the MCU and just marvel movies in general give me this hopeful feeling whenever I watch them, they take me back to the days of being a happy go lucky kid without a care in the world. In star contrast to my 22 year old self who is trying to manage my crazy life with work and personal issues.
Spiderman especially if I could get a little personal here has literally saved my life when my depression almost drove me to a point of no return. He's a character that will forever be near and dear to my heart. I wanted the chance to thank Stan lee and Steve ditko but obviously due to circumstances that is no longer possible. And it's not just him, cap, iron Man, Thor, they've all played a part in me becoming who I am.
Are they fictional? Yeah but what's important is what they represent it's about the lasting impact they will have as years go by. That's why we need hero's.
“Till all are one”
Optimus Prime
honestly this video just helped me come out of a writers block I've been dealing with. A lot of the topics and questions brought up in this video really got me thinking
And this is why superman & Spiderman were my guys growing up, teaching me about hope, morals and responsibility that I carry with me to this very day. Villains may be glorified nowadays, but superheroes are always gonna be my go to & icons.
9:30-9:50 My thoughts exactly!
I think the best explanation for the nature of power comes from Dr. Erskine's description for the effects of the super-soldier serum from the MCU: "Good becomes great, bad becomes worse." If you hand somebody power and they end up going off the deep end, odds are good that they were already inclined towards that kind of behavior to begin with, it just wasn't as noticeable because it was on a much smaller scale. The only thing the power did was make them believe that they were above consequences.
Regarding the end, I wouldn't conflate heroism with altruism.
WE CAN ALL BE HEROES
in these desperate times, a hero is needed. Super Sentai taught me that despite differences, we all have a common goal. Kamen Rider taught me about despite what happens, the human will must never be dissolved. And Finally, The Silver Giant himself, Urutoraman made me hopeful and have a better outlook on life... even restoring my religious faith
Thank God for heroes.
How come this amazing video only have 3,7k views at the time i am watching , I always liked your content and found it very fun and well written , what a shame this video has so lilttle views.I can say that this video-essay is really good, well written again and really tought provoking , I sometimes stay in my room and question myself why do I love superheroes and why do we all need good heroes and in this video I saw an amazing point of view of one of my favorites in this platform.Keep up the good work!
I have always believed that superheroes and the stories told of them are modern day myths equivalent to Hercules and his 12 labours or Jason and the Argonauts or the story of the Labyrinth and the Minotaur. They tell us a story and they make us believe in heroes and villains and good and evil and the gray Inbetween.
The world does need HEROES right now not just the heroes from fiction but real life heroes who are willing to give HOPE to the little guy
Nietzsche not only spoke of how "God is dead," he also spoke of "will to power through violence". Then when a mad man in the early 20th century read his words, he believed his people--his race to be the ubermensch, and through violent "will to power" he started a genocidal crusade. Nietzsche is not an example of how heroes work.
Hitlers reading of Nietzsche and his ubermensch is the problem here
Blaming a philosopher for someone else's interpretation of their work? That's not Nietzsche's fault. Furthermore Nietzsche was addressing the problem of nihilism. A problem that has only gotten worse since his time, it's one thing to complain it's another to offer a solution. What is your solution to nihilism? Superman comics?
As much as I enjoy the mythos of the modern hero like Superman, Captain America, or Spider man in our cynical, gray world this highlights why we need God and faith. God gives us an idea to strive towards; a moral standard to follow, a holy figure like Christ and the persistence of the apostles and old testament prophets. Faith because faith is long suffering, patient, and ultimately triumphs over evil in due time. Especially, now in these cynical, real times...
Also to me what makes a hero is someone persisting in the face of great evil, struggle, and hardship. Someone who is willing to be extraordinary, and special in this world; a light in the darkness...
Amen!
I think if we had heroes the world would be and feel much safer for anyone people would have other ways to hope for the hero to appear and save the day no matter in what physical way the world would just be much more positive if we had that.
The quality of this video is so good I’m surprised it doesn’t have at least 100k views. The amount of time and effort this took to edit all together is astonishing. What editing software do you use?
I Agree the world still need heroes more then ever.
I found your channel not too while ago and you, immediately, became one of my favourite youtubers.
Could you make an in-depth video essay solely about the character of Green Lantern? He's my favorite superhero lol.
I would absolutely love to see that. I have recently been reading the Geoff Johns Green Lantern run, and I am now a big Green Lantern fan I am amazed at how much fascinating lore, characters and settings there are in the Green Lantern mythology. Seriously, Green Lantern (Hal, John, Guy, Kyle, Alan, Jessica and Simon) and their stories have become some of my favourite comic book stories, and I am shocked that this character and their history isn't more appreciated (most likely due to Warner Bros and the live-action film). Green Lantern honestly has as much world-building and character development potential as Star Wars does now.
And if @SUPERFRAME doesn't have any plans to make a video essay about the character and his history and mythology then I love to make such a video if I could
Whenever SUPERFRAME uploads, it's gotta be a good day.
But on all seriousness, this was a really cool video. Keep up the good work.
For me shirou emiya and Peter Parker are the greatest heroes
Those who seek power are doomed to abuse it those who don’t use their power to help those around them
I would say Goku
But he seek bettermen rather then strength
Anyone can be a hero. All you need to do is answer the call.
The way I’ve come to determine heroism from villainy is something I’ve recognised to be somewhat simple.
Heroes make self sacrifices to make improvements upon the world or to protect worthwhile aspects of it that are vulnerable if not safe guarded. They sacrifice social and personal relationships, career opportunities. They know they have the power to improve their life with ease if they abused their abilities, but they sacrifice their own personal interests and opt to do the objectively right thing to do. Where they could do so much with the power they have, they strain to restrain themselves from even taking petty retaliation in a social setting, even keeping their good deeds secret so that those they love won’t suffer ramifications of their efforts against those with wicked agendas.
Villains on the other hand use the sacrifice of others to force their will over others. To make their ideals dominate, to make things just in their eyes. Using power to bend or remove aspects of the world they find unsavoury. Be in rooted in tragedy, revenge, greed, lust, self righteousness, zeal, pride, ego, delusions of grandeur. They might have self control in certain aspects but it’s not in the question of objective morality because they will always be able to justify it. As some are secretive of their identity, it is so that they don’t suffer the consequences of their actions by the disapproving society, or they are pompous enough to flaunt their power over others because they have enough control over others who are in power, or that they are too powerful for society to defeat them, and consequences arnt even a fear.
You ask what is a hero to me that has always been the choice to do the right thing damning the consequences. The choice to be selfless and potentially lose than be selfish and to guarantee a win. To me a hero is someone who does the right thing even when the cameras aren't on. They do the right thing even when there is no reward and that they may even be hated for it they do it because it's the right thing to do. It's why Spider-Man is so great he does the right thing because he knows that with great power there must also come great responsibility
I believe that power corrupts in inverse proportion to the responsibility that the wielder is willing to accept for the consequences of exercising that power.
If there's one way I can sum up why I think we need heroes, its that if we don't have them, we'll wind up getting a world where everything is about as violent and cynical as Harley Quinn's (which is a series that's funny as hell) or the New 52 (not so funny. In fact its miserable in it)
The points you made in the video were great and educated me on how we as a society view superheroes. I'm a batman guy myself.
Heroes we need spiderman
This is an underrated channel and a great video, well done 🙂
Spoiler alert, this video is an exhibition of your superpower. All of y'all are superheroes. I know. I do this for a living.
Another fantastic video man! keep up the amazing work!
This video deserves wayyyy more likes
Wow. Incredible video. Great job, man
Thx for the video
My hero's has always been the
Bat-family and/or inc. each member is unique
From their origin, gender, age, physical,physiological, and morals
On how they view live,world/worlds and themselves.
My favorite's are Nightwing, Red Hood, Black Bat(orphan), and Robin(Damian wayne) each come different aspect of life.
This was an amazing video. I can’t find the words to say how great it is.
What we need is real live heros, all we have now are comic book characters and actors. No one can really behind someone without them being some Hollywood celebrity.
We need less comic books and more religion and men of action. But instead all we have are traitors and pretenders.
Fantastic essay!
To defend us from evil.
If you truly want to test someone give them power.
Very thought provoking… Thanks man :)
Well said man. Well said
Superheros help to strip down evil to a more simplistic form were we can recognize that without a doubt what it is and then take these experiences and use them to understand the scope of wrong wrong doings we will encounter.
This is really cool. I like it
A Hero is not someone who seeks to become an idol or be someone else, but someone who just tries to be the best them they can be.
Superman isn't trying to be Perfect, he's trying to be the best Clark Kent he could be, and that includes wearing blue clothes, a red cape, and saving the day, then he goes back to his daily job, telling the news, keeping people informed, and trying to live his life.
we most certainty need heroes just not the "super" type
I agree with everything you said in this video.
Great video bro.
We need the heros more then ever all of humanity rest in there hands the faith of are world depending on it
I love heroes.
hmm at the moment we have real life heroes everywhere thanks to the pandemic. I mean look at the doctors and nurses
This video is a masterpiece
I love this!
Simplemente increíble, saludos desde Colombia.
Modern marvel/disney would like to disagree. Well, only if the hero is male, white or straight.
Not implying whether it’s positive or negative, feel free to discuss
Well that philosophy isn’t taking them far if you look at there comic sells
Well that philosophy isn’t taking them far if you look at there comic sells
woah where is 21:31 from?
Wonder Woman
@@thesuperframe thanks!
Do you think the public would react positively to golden age heroism.
bro how do you not have more subscribers
If more people shared the videos then maybe 🤔
@@thesuperframe damn think I will, content on this channel is top tier
🔥🔥🔥
They're absurd. There's nothing to relate to. None of the science adds up, and magic doesn't exist.
I've been trying to understand why people are drawn to them but I still don't have an answer, when we are the heroes. We are the ones to give empathy and help out those less fortunate than ourselves, etc, etc, and in turn teaching that to anyone who knows what we did.
That homeless person earlier, we could help them, not some fantasy idealised 'hero' who flies. Your next door neighbour who's in her 90's, who doesn't get anyone visiting her, you could be her hero just by knocking and checking she is ok.
I still don't understand superheroes and people's love for them.
Woke Companies: You don't need heroes you need SJWs ( Social Justice Warriors)
Me: WTF are you doing?
For real.
Lol for real
False gods shall and only those who stand for heroism will be left standing
They may corrupted the images of our hero’s but never will they corrupt there legacy
Or what they stand for
amazing video
Because heroes, like freedom, is an illusion!
I think BATMAN is the greatest hero.
Gonna be honest here in this day and age what we need is not heroes but revolution, Batman and Superman are remedies that could not change the system no matter how hard they tried and how much they contributed, so instead of trying to constantly patch up a broken system we should look for a cure not by relying on heroes or idols and leaders but in ourselves first.
Relovutions are always based on hatred.
For the entirety of human history, we have been twlling very VERY tall tales (like religion) and trying to inspire our progeny. But at least comic heroes are entertaining and known to be false, where religion is for some ridiculous reason, belived to be truthful. Myths can be great inspiration or can create insane cults led by popes and priests etc. I love the inspiration from "heroes" in mythology, but i despise the myths of religion and the innumerable deaths and amounts of pain they have caused.
we don't
Yes, we do, we need heroes, SUPER FRAME perfectly explores and talks about why we need heroes.
@@HenryLouis21 the problem is we cling to old heros of a status quo that ruined us. We aren't getting out of this hell with the likes of Luke Skywalker or Superman or Captain America. We will need to bring about a new age, with new heros, and they will have to be ruthless. Like heros of old, not of modern times of roses and honey.
Since you wanted us to have a discussion on what it means to be good and ethical, my response to that is that concepts like Good and evil, ethical and unethical are concepts that only makes sense if someone believes in God. In theory most atheists shouldn’t be believing in these concepts but because God exists and has ingrained us with Fitra, it only makes sense. Fitra is a concept that all Muslims believe in which means that every human is born believing in God and that their parents are the ones that make him a Christian, a Jew, a Buddhist, or an atheist. Fitra aka natural disposition is why all humans know how to differentiate between right and wrong regardless of their religion. Without a concept of a creator and without a purpose, why would anyone do “the right thing”, what does that even mean for someone who has no purpose, for someone who believes that humans exist by chance or due to randomness. I know It’s a long comment, but to wrap up my point is: only if someone believes in God, he/she could make an argument for good and evil, right or wrong. That’s why I believe in God and that’s why to me it wouldn’t make sense if God didn’t exist and why we have these universal concepts of right and wrong. Reflect on what I typed and hopefully it makes sense to you. I love this channel btw. I just wanted to share some ideas that you might find interesting.
Salaam Alaikum, my brother.
I think that the argument for Fitra doesn't properly define what it is. Atheists have an equal propensity for good as a Christian, as the many problems with priests doing un-Godly things proves. I agree that, "every human is born believing in God," but I disagree that they choose to call it that. I think that people choose to rationalize what **God** is for them, using Heroes as a basis. My mother likens God to Tinkerbell, the fairy from Peter Pan, as that was how she understands His nature. I compare Jesus Christ (peace be upon him) to Luke Skywalker as that is my frame of reference for a person who resists the calls of selfishness. I think that Fitra should be the ingrained belief in the might of God's Will; hence Nietzsche was wrong for thinking that myths will disappear, and God would "die," since Fitra is that Will given a personal voice in our hearts.
God is real and Christianity is the truth. Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and believe that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved and have eternal life in Heaven!
We need Jesus,superheroes are important too but there not real their just fiction stories and characters inspired by Jesus.
We need something to believe in. Whether it is Christianity or not is irrelevant.
