Aithful readers will recall that I found "Spider-Man 2"(2004) the best superhero movie since "Superman"(1978). But I made the mistake of declaring that was because "the movie demonstrates what's wrong with a lot of other superhero epics:
They focus on the superpowers, and shortchange the humans behind them." This time, I desperately wanted Peter Parker to be short-changed. If I argued earlier that Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent were boring human beings, I had no idea how Peter would begin to wear on my nerves.
