We’re complying a list of our reader’s Top 5 Superhero Movies of All Time and we need your help. We will be featuring your thoughts and picks in an upcoming issue of Rethink Monthly magazine. To submit your choice, simply leave a reply below.

Here are a few of our favorites.

The Dark Knight – I think we can all agree that The Dark Knight is one of the top superhero movies of all time. Christopher Nolan took the series in a different direction with Batman Begins and it was a huge success. He did the same with The Dark Knight and now the Batman series couldn’t get any hotter. Throw in an astounding performance from Heath Ledger, intense action, suspense and phenomenal acting, you have a superhero flick that tops the list.

Spider-Man II – Usually we’re not a big fan of sequels but along came Spider-Man II, the follow up to the hugely successful Spider-Man. We didn’t think it could get much better after the first one but Sam Raimi and the all-star cast opened up the story a bit, allowing for real, dramatic themes to pour in.

Other notables:

Batman Begins
Batman (1989)
Unbreakable
The Incredibles
X-Men

Anne Leonard is at it again. The girl who brought us “The Story of Stuff” has released a new video, “The Story of Bottled Water.” The 8-minute video was released in honor of World Water Day tells of the bottled water industry’s slick environmental-themed campaigns and the mountains of needless plastic waste they produce.

I’m a recovering bottled water addict. I gave it up a couple of years ago when I heard that Americans spend $15 billion annually on bottled water while 1.1 Billion people globally don’t have access to clean drinking water. When one considers the cost differential and all of the studies showing that bottled water proves to be no cleaner, healthier, or tastier than tap water, there is really no reason to consume bottled water. Don’t be fooled by the pastoral scenes on the bottled water labels. These companies are fooling you into paying more for a product that’s already available to you for nearly nothing. I’m not legalistic and I haven’t become the bottled water police, but I opt for tap water these days and often carry a reusable bottle or thermos.

In my own spiritual walk, I’ve been trying to live more simply. Drive less, spend less, worry less, work less, waste less. Simplicity creates more time for friends, family, reading, reflecting, relaxing, and praying. As David Chronic writes, “Attaching to Jesus means detaching from the world and to simplicity of lifestyle. This is not simplicity for the sake of simplicity, but simplicity for the sake of relationship–relationship with God and relationship with each other.”

It doesn’t always work for me. Things still pile up and I still occasionally want to pull my hair out. I often catch myself neglecting my family and friends. Simplicity is hard, and I’ve got a long way to go. Reconsidering what we drink, however, is one easy way to spend less and create less trash. There is no way to calculate all the money or waste I’ve saved, but it’s significant. Take a look at the video above and begin rethinking your own drinking habits. Perhaps the first step toward a simpler life is as easy as H-2-O.

Do you regularly drink bottled water? How much do you consume / spend?
How important to you is saving money and reducing personal waste?
Is this something you’d miss if you gave it up?
