For hypothetical example; Father/son duo are criminals, harming, killing, and stealing innocent civilians. Superhero fights them, resulting in the father dying. Son is now portrayed as a sympathetic villain because all he wants is to avenge his father… despite all the fathers of children they murdered whilst comitting crimes.
Side question; do you feel sympathy for the villains portrayed like this?
Because for some reason, hollywood can’t make proper villians anymore. Everyone has to be some kind if anti-hero or have a tragic backstory.
One of the reasons all these superhero movies suck. It’s just poor writing.
