Super Hero Movies: The Human Side

Studios have pretty much gobbled up every comic book title out there. CGI technology has evolved to the point that comic book action can be brought to the big screen and look darned good. This summer we've had another installment of the Xmen and the man of steel has also returned to the big screen with amazing visuals.

Superman got me to thinking though. This year's Superman is perhaps a bit more human than previous incarnations. He stalks Lois Lane and checks her out with his xray vision. Hey, dont judge, you know you'd do the same thing! I mean the poor guy hasn't had any for over 5 years, now he's back, she's looking all hot, of course he's gonna sneak a peek with those xray eyes.

But here's where my mind started to wonder....what other really human issues does Superman and other super heroes deal with on a daily basis. I mean does the "man of steel" wake up with a blue steel pee boner in the morning? And if so does he use his power of flight to get upside down to aim at the toilet or does he just ricochet it off the ceiling?

Here are some of my other thoughts:

What happens if the Hulk eats a huge bowl of chili? This may be yet another reason his pants have to be very flexible and nearly indestructable.

You know Wolverine has to be VERY careful when he gets a little stink finger.

Spiderman is out web slinging all night, you know he has to stop and take a dump occasionally. Does that suit have a trap door?

Imagine the blue flamers that Johnny Torch can light at will...

Ben Grimm....when he takes a crap, is it a pile of rocks?

And I dont even want to think about Wonder Woman on PMS....
