The penetration of heroism

Aaliyah 2022-10-16 16:09:48

This movie comes after I've seen a lot of American animated movies. Because the continuous viewing makes me feel the infiltration of heroism in American movies, even if it is deeply hidden, it can still be felt.
It's still heroism, and in the end, the super villain becomes a superhero and saves the world. The only bright spot may no longer be a super villain turning into a superhero, but the hero's suspended animation, an urge to return to his original life under the light. Let us re-examine whether the world we live in and yearn for is really suitable for us and whether it really brings us happiness. Are some of our seemingly rebellion against the world just futile futility and self-abuse and self-abandonment.
I do not agree with the heroism of one person or one country saving the world, although such national sentiments are of great benefit to a country, and can even be understood as a kind of radiant self-confidence. But for the whole world, it is not the majesty that one person can save, but the consciousness that inspires the people of the world. Otherwise salvation is but the beginning of another kind of slavery.

Megamind quotes

  • Titan: I think you and I should team up.

    Megamind: Wait, what?

    Titan: Yeah! With my strength and your big-headedness, we could rule Metro City! I even drew up some new costume designs, see?

    [holds out some drawings]

    Titan: You'd be the brain, so you'd get a little brain wearing glasses on your costume or something. And since I'm the cool one, I'd have, like, two tanks sword-fighting...

  • Megamind: [wounded] I'm sorry... I did the best I could...

    Roxanne Ritchi: I'm so proud of you.

    [Megamind touches his watch, who is actually Minion in disguise]

    Roxanne Ritchi: Minion?

    Minion: Surprise!

    [chuckles nervously]

    Minion: He's the real hero!

    [points at Megamind disguised as Metro Man]
