Popcorn Culture - Supercut: What Makes A Good Hero?

Everyone loves a hero. Whether they're squeaky clean like Superman or slightly more questionable like John Rambo, we enjoy watching these characters kick *bleep*, take names, and look good while doing it. But is that all a hero is? On this Supercut, we discuss our favorite heroic archetypes and what makes them tick, the difference between a hero and a regular protagonist, and why some of these characters are able to last a lifetime.
