Which Is Better: Marvel or DC?

The age-old question. Who could possibly be better? Marvel or DC. There are fans of both, but for the most part, there is a line separating both universes. So what makes one better than the other? Or does each universe handle it's own?

To start off, Batman and Superman are very big superheroes that almost everyone is aware of. Whether fans or not, they know who these characters are. These two have had movies, tv shows, and action figures made way before the war between Marvel and DC. No one seemed to care about Iron Man or Thor, but rather indulged in the two DC characters everyone seemed to love. DC made a move years ago with their Batman and Superman antics. They were the first to be in the superhero business. That is about how far they went. They did have really great Batman movies, but if you really look at it, they are kind of repetitive. The had a chance with Wonder Woman and an even bigger chance with Justice League, but when it came to performing, they didn't meet the standards of success. So, DC made the first move, had compelling superheroes, made an amazing movie about Wonder Woman, but when it came down to connecting everyone and storylines and making the Justice League movie they failed.

Marvel wasn't the first in the business but made the most out of it. They had a plan to make the movies they did and bring the characters to life. They followed their blueprint for all the phases they were going through. The eventually brought everyone together in the first Avengers movie, and from then on, it was all history. They made all their movies part of history and made each better than the last. One downside is that they are trying to make all their movies friendly for families, so it doesn't have that dark edge that DC movies have but Marvel makes it work.

So overall, it is up to the fans. They will connect more to who they grew up with, which heroes they like, the storylines that are interesting. They will make their choice. For my favorite, I have to forever and always chose Marvel. What's your preference?

Five Family Movies That Will Bring Your Family Closer (Ezine #2)

Going to the movies can take on many roles, some of which are a bit more important to others. While most people might think that a movie being a cultural phenomenon or a movie of a generation might be pretty important, nearly everyone will discount how important family movies can be in general. Depending on who you ask, this may be more of a commentary on how society is changing, but it might just be that family movies are made for only some members of the family. Think about the last time you sat and watched a movie with your spouse and children. Was it animated? Were the parental figures just a bit too out of touch to seem real? Did the CGI overload make it hard to even look at the screen? As time has gone on, what makes for a family movie has really been more about making a movie that keeps a kids attention long enough to give Mom and Dad a breather. Whatever happened to the type of movie that made the family feel closer to each other? You know, the kind of movie that taught an

Edward Norton vs. Mark Ruffalo: The Hulk

Our superheroes have grown and become big names from Iron Man to Thor. Every superhero, who has a movie or is a supporting character, is known in the superhero universe. One age-old question within that universe involves the Incredible Hulk. This character's transformation has been an interesting one, to say nonetheless. We will be looking back and comparing the different Hulks. Edward Norton did a decent job at portraying the Hulk. This character isn't the easiest to play and does involve a lot of work. He definitely tried, but the storyline and character development didn't play in his favor. The timing of when the movie was released is also a playing a factor. This movie came out before the Marvel universe actually became a phenomenon. That didn't allow the studio and surrounding storylines to further his development. This movie was not a part of the growing universe but rather another superhero movie. Mark Ruffalo had a lot more background and information to work
