The Most Tragic Superhero Movie Ever Made

Post Reply New Topic

It may not be the best superhero movie ever made but it certainly is one of the best. I didn't cry but my eyes did feel heavy at one or two points. I would consider this the Titanic of superhero movies, that film didn't make me cry either. Basically the main hero is a weakling to start off with but dedicated and determined and he gets his chance and becomes a legend. Does anyone know what the movie is? Guess it and I will tell you why it's sad or you can probably tell me.

I'm guessing either Spider-Man or Captain America.

I'm guessing about 90% of the superhero movies ever made....

I like the "original" Conan for a weakling to legend flick...

Watchmen

Toxic Avenger?

Wanted...I guessed it right?

Batman and Robin. Now that was a tragedy!

No that was a TRAVISTY, not a tragedy.

Kick-Ass.

Captain America is correct. I guess I consider it sad mostly because of the ending. When the film starts it's set in the modern day with those 2 guys(I guess their probably S.H.I.E.L.D agents) and they discover the plane and Cap's shield along with the frozen Cap who was not seen on screen and then we go back to World War II where the movie really begins and when you think about it, it kinda has a Titanic/Green Mile feeling to it except that theres no old person narrating, though that would be cool if they had an old Peggy doing that and theres the fact that it starts off in an icy enviroment kinda like Titanic. As the film goes on theres more sad stuff like the deaths of that scientist and Bucky and then you get to the finale when Cap has to crash the plane and he's talking to Peggy over the radio and arranging a dance date and you've got Alan Silvertri's score playing and you feel the sadness and after all of that you've got the Howling Commandoes raising their drinks to Cap and a bunch of kids pretending to be Captain America and I think it's sad, most likely like any other war film e.g. Saving Private Ryan(which is the only one I've seen). But of course we all know that Cap was gonna survive because of The Avengers but it's still sad. In many superhero films the hero usually gets the girl but before your gonna watch Captain America you know that their not gonna end up together because of The Avengers.
