Why so Serious Son?
Who do you like more - Jay and Veeru or Gabbar? I will give you an easier option - Batman or Joker?
For me, the antagonist wins by clean sweep. But, all my hero loving friends will agree that if the so called "Negative Characters" were not present in these mind numbing movies, our heroes would not have become so special and worth of our admiration.
Still don't believe me? A person who has never cried will probably never understand how special it is to laugh. Someone who has not hated anyone can never love unconditionally.
What we consider "Bad" is essential to make us realize the importance of "Good". Opposite values are complimentary to each other.
Most of us who have tried something very hard and failed have often been in despair for long. But have we ever realized what is despair. Wordweb defines it as 'A state in which all hope is lost'. But is it really so. I am the optimist kind. Let's look at it from another angle, let's define it again.
Despair is a situation where in nothing more can go bad (it already is worse), more importantly it is thus a situation where you can start again with nothing to lose!
A little long for definition but I hope it conveys the meaning. When everything goes our way, we are never really hopeful for something great. The comfort zone kicks in. But only in despair we understand the importance and power of being hopeful. Use this situation to your advantage. When people throw stones at you, you can either keep getting hurt or, you use the same stones and make a shield.
When life gives you shit, turn it into compost...
P.S (please start loving the bad guys...they are bad, but not that bad ;-)
