He specified that he was only interested in that area when they came up with the technology and the fact that suddenly Iron Man or Spider-Man could look real and not tacky in the special effects. Then, it became normal. Vincent says he was a big fan of the comics when he was a kid and now, he feels that these movies are for kids, really. He said that he would consider doing a superhero film only if it had a great villain and is made by somebody who's really intelligent and talented enough to give it a twist so it doesn't look like a movie for kids.
