Io9 Discusses Superheroes and War Films

Io9 published an article entitled “Have War Movies Become Superhero Flicks?“, which contemplates whether the Superhero film genre has become the War film genre of today. It proposes that recent Superhero films (such as “Wolverine”, “Watchmen”, “Incredible Hulk”, and “Iron Man”) have dealt with the themes War films used to deal with, while War films have evolved into mostly historical pieces. It’s an interesting read.
