[Bastiest]

Whoah? They're like... Super humans with awesome powers and they're like whining about it?

It's not like they couldn't just dress like normal human beings and make the best out of it.

@Bastiest I don't know which movie or tv (I don't have a television) live action story it is but there's that same phony gripe the writer's produced for the characters about their super powers. Lame and hard to believe.

@Khultan You may be talking about the show "Heroes". The description sounds familiar.

[Khultan]

@MarySue1964 That or the recent one called 'Ordinary people', it's on Wednesday, I think. There's a family: A father, mother, daughter and son. Father has invulnerability and can hump for miles, mother has speed beyond super sonic, daughter can read minds and son becomes a genius. Daugter bitches about being able to read minds. Son complains he's an idiot.

Notice the PUSH BUTTON PHONE at 8:27 -- another future thing they got right. If only we had the flying cars!

When I used to watch this as a kid back in the mid 60s, I never noticed what thick New York accents the kids who are singing the theme song had. It really jumps out at me now.
