From Superheroes to Ordinary Heroes: Time for a New Story | Common Dreams:

 "I want to see a movie made that points the way to a different model of heroism.

Instead of the superhero, David against Goliath type tale, I want to see, on the big 3-D screen with all the lavish special effects and brilliant actors, a tale that celebrates the ordinary heroism of people on the ground, who—understanding the danger of militarism and the mechanized violence that pervades human civilization, from agriculture to energy to education and entertainment—come together to offer whatever skills, talents and gifts they have to the common pool of resistance."

Actually a version of this story has been told in history, if not often in the arts. It's the early Labor Movement.
