Think about it: you, yourself, grow up pretty well, and suddenly find out you have the powers of a god. Would it really be that easy to suddenly become a do-gooding hero? Dedicate your life to just helping people? Purge yourself of any thoughts of using your powers for selfishness, greed, lust? Take your anger just a little too far? I think the superhuman "nature vs. nurture" discussion was done pretty well with the unheralded film "Chronicle" that came out a while back. That's all these modern directors are doing: exploring HOW Kent makes his choices and becomes Supes.

Good post. XRay vision would DEFINITELY be used to look at tits.
