SuperHeros and SuperVillains

It had been a long time since i had watched a movie , so i went with my friend to Spiderman Movie ( the new one ! )

With all the areas considered and  neglecting the fact that it had the almost same story as the first Spider-man movie , it is a good movie. I liked it. One of the most important quotes of the movie ( the original ) is : "With great power comes great responsibility."  I really like that quote because it is applicable in modern world and perhaps the todays leaders , businessmen and scientists  should indeed understand the gravity of these lines.

The movie states another fact , rather unknowingly , that if we have achieved great power that can improve our lives then we are also building the antagonist  counterpart of the same. If i am not wrong Superman also has a similar story.
This is more or less the theme for all superhero movies , may be they are not rooted to the same experiment as in SpiderMan (new). So the point is , for every superhero there is a SuperVillain as well. 

Hence there is a simple question, whats so glorious when the power you have created has been efficient in saving the world from ITSELF ? That too at a cost of destruction and hazards to the environment. 
And you would find that there are analogous entities in todays world to these superheros and supervillains , which we all are well acquainted ...
