For the first question, Marvel are not going with hyper realism and humour, that's why Marvel get away with more than DC. 

 

Ironman is an ass. He pays for his douchery in Civil War. I just hope they stick to the comics. If they do, Thor will be handing him a beating of a life time for killing cap, profiting from the civil war, tricking people by creating a fake Thor and being an asshat. 

 

If they change the story to side with Stark then I am no longer interested in the MVU either. 

Batman vs Superman isnt even realistic. DC is trying to pose as realistic. If this was realistic batman wouldve been dead by the military (making nolans movies closer to reality than this), failing to reach the age hes at in the movie. Wonder Woman would not have revealed herself either and there would be no lex luthor. There is no real world scenario. Its just dark and dramatic. Thats what they mean to say.

Kickass is more realistic than Batman vs Superman, because it acknolwdges that superheroes really dont exist and that superheroes at meant to be inspirations. Being a vigilante has its limits.

Kick-Ass.  Now there's a movie that differed from the comic!  He rode off on a fucking Jet Pack that he got off of ebay at the end of the movie.  In the comic, he was just an emo kid that liked comic books.  He said the right ingredients for being a hero was "Loneliness and despair" and changed it to something like "Hopefulness and optimism"

Big Daddy went from some accountant who ran off with his kid and paid for their exploits with his comics collection to some ex cop framed for a crime.  He gave Hitgirl some cocaine, too.  In fact, they reavealed Red Mist as a villain right off the bat instead of the surprise reveal almost at the end of the first story.  They did some "Let's kill him over the internet" thing instead of shooting Big Daddy in the head and letting Kick-Ass plan his own escape. I can't remember ever being more pissed with a comics movie than with the changes they made to Kick-Ass!

But, upon repeated viewings, that film was decent.  Lost its dark gritty edge for something mainstream and light hearted.  I guess that's what comics have to do these days to please their audience.  Just leave the gritty source material behind and dumb things down.
