Anti-Realist

·        An anti-realist narrative has the freedom to indulge in the presentation of events that could never happen in ordinary life. Superhero films have their own realism – and internal logic that establishes the “special powers” possessed by the characters which govern what protagonists and antagonists can and can’t do. 

     Even given this realism, they are not what we would describe as “realist”. In everyday life men cannot stretch their arms around buildings.
