Hispanic Film Archives: Superman Returns: Why Do I Consider Superman a “Native American”?

“As all of you may already know, Superman Returns was the box office champ this past weekend. Unfortunately, it didn’t gross as much as X Men 3 (an inferior flick if you ask me), but the tally was over 80 million dollars for the 5 days it was out. In any case, as I watched the film, I couldn’t help but think that the character of Superman (i.e. Kal-El) has a lot in common with ancient Aztecs and Incas. Why? Because Superman, like the Aztecs and Incas, consider the Sun a vital force in their lives.”
