Another movie to catch is "The Specials," which I believe premieres this 
Friday (9/22) in some markets. It's basically "Mystery Men" if they had real 
super powers, filmed in a documentary style as the group breaks up.  Most of 
the characters judging from the website are roughly delta-level (Mr. Smart! 
Minute (Minute) Man! The Strobe! The Weevil!).  Of course, they're billed as 
"America's Seventh Best Super-Hero Group".

On the other hand, a group that fights villains like the Anal Slug and 
Eurofag can't be all bad...  ;)
