  1. Your thoughts are always in my mind. Hollywood has lost the concept of the hero actually. Because heroes are not just individuals whom we want to see just ''kicking ass'' and then going back home after 1.5-2-3 hours of empty action scenes. Heroes, both real or fictional, since ancient times through religion, mythology or history to modern times through art, are personalities that struggle, first of all with themselves, they overcome their weaknesses and give their lives for a great cause, or sacrifice themselves for the benefit of others. They are concepts of inspiration for humans and have been such since ancient times. But in order to inspire imitation and admiration in terms of virtue and causes in real life, they need to have human traits and not just be cartoons. Meaning that 1)their actions need to based on the evolution of a story and thus action must have an actual impact and not just be for a sterile ''panem et circenses''. 2) They need to inspire nostalgia and thus the feeling of missing them. Cause only when people miss something they actually end up estimating it more. And death only adds to that if it's not the real key to being a hero. If you remove ''death''', you remove the concept of hero, cause if death misses, then the ''hero'' has nothing human in him anymore and thus nothing that can be heroic. He/she becomes nothing but an action/killing machine with extraordinary levels of testosterone.
