- Now does the Batmobile come with this?
Because that's what I really want.
(intense music)
- Today we are recreating superhero posters.
- I remember when I was a kid,
Spider-Man was like my always choice costume.
- I really love Captain America, he's not gritty,
he's a kind person, he's always striving to be happy
and good.
- Batman is a total badass, he is multi-multi-billionaire
and he chooses to take that money
to become this crazy vigilante.
- Superman's been my favorite superhero
because he stands for good morals, he's brave,
and he also has all of the best superpowers.
- I recognize something really dark and deep in Logan
that made me feel like, oh my god, I get you.
- I love Thor 'cause he was born into all this power
and abilities that he had but at the same time
he had to give them all up in order to learn
what it meant to be a good person and ultimately a hero.
- Thinking about being transformed into Spider-Man,
it kind of made me realize that there weren't really
a lot of female superheroes that I looked up to
and I know that there were some but all I can really think
of that were popular was Wonder-Woman.
- [Kelsey] I always wanted to be the hero,
I wanted to be Harry Potter, I wanted to be Spider-Man,
I wanted to be Captain America.
- They have the coolest abilities or the coolest outfits
or like the coolest weapons, it was hard because
you didn't really have that many female superheroes
to relate to, usually they were too sexy
or just too out there and you're kinda like,
not as cool as the guy character.
- [Briana] I didn't really realize how much we were missing
female superheroes until we started seeing them more.
- I cried during Wonder Woman and I didn't cry
at my grandmother's funeral.
I'm so excited for Captain Marvel,
I'm so excited for Batgirl, and it shows girls kick ass.
(laughing)
- I just saw my reflection.
- [Briana] I feel fabulous, oooh.
(screams)
- Oh my god, the armor!
- [Kelsey] I've never seen myself as powerful,
I've never seen myself as strong until very recently
and those are things I really admire in women.
- I feel like I'm getting powers right now,
on the poster he looks like he's just so ready
to go out there and fight and ready to protect the city
and so I kind of had to imitate that
and it felt really cool.
- I feel like Batman, it's so cool to actually see myself
in this, never in my wildest dreams did I think
I'd get to wear a legit Batman costume.
- This is definitely an upgrade from my childhood cape
which was a baby blanket.
- [] The body armor on, the hammer in my hand,
I feel powerful.
- I'm feeling very glam too, I know I'll never be as pretty
as Hugh Jackman, but I'm getting pretty damn close,
it's hard not to feel pretty badass
when you got blades coming out of your hands.
- I hope it turned out alright.
- The photos have been photoshopped.
- I know my butt's gonna look really good.
It better look good.
- Will I pull it off?
Will I actually look like a badass Thor?
- Wait, it's like a legit poster.
- Oh my gosh. - Wait.
- I thought it was gonna be like on a computer.
- Me too!
- Holy shit!
This is not what I expected at all, it's so intense.
I'm gonna show this to anyone who wants to fuck with me,
just be like, really, you're gonna try to fuck with me?
- Oh wow.
Holy what!
What!
I've never seen my face look like that.
It's so cool because I'm not American dream in this photo,
which is the female Captain America version
where she's in that tight fitted outfit,
I'm Captain America.
- Ooh, girl, what!
(squealing)
My butt looks great, my butt looks so cool!
What the hell!
It looks so cool.
I look strong too.
- Dude! - That's insane.
I look cool and strong, I've never seen myself
really as strong, I've always been pretty weak.
- Oh my god!
What the, holy crap.
I look amazing.
Who is this?
That doesn't even look like me!
It's strange to see myself look this powerful
especially because normally when you take photos
with your friends or whatever, you're just being goofy
and silly and being yourself.
- I don't have the words to explain what it feels like
to have a childhood dream just become real in front of you.
- If I were younger and I saw a movie poster
of a hero like this, it'd be so inspiring
because there's a feeling of, I could be that person.
- Representation is not just important
just so people feel represented but because those stories
are of interest to everyone.
It wasn't just women watching Wonder Woman,
it was like, everybody loved Wonder Woman,
if you didn't, you're lying.
- Trying to be this intense superhero
but as soon as they're not taking photos,
immediately I'm the giddiest fangirl that ever was.
