Thor and Iron Man rock my boat and I'll go see them any day. But Superman ... would take some coaxing. I went on a first date to the original Superman with Christopher Reeve, with someone I'd had a crush on for 6 years (I was 18 at the time). I was so worried about doing and saying everything right that I hardly noticed the onscreen action. I failed to notice, and laugh, at Reeve's line about standing 'for Truth, Justice, and the American Way'.
Not laughing at the line was a deal-breaker for my crush, who departed a few weeks later. So I have a grudge against Superman/Man of Steel.
