    You can buy it on Amazon or like most things, down rent it for free if you search hard enough. George Lucas used it to create Star Wars.

    Hero's try. They fall, they fail. They learn. Then they rise from the ashes of their mistakes and become something better than what they were. Sometimes they fall/fail again, and then they learn some more and rise again. Sometimes they have help. Sometimes they lose their help. All of this on their way to mastery and victory. Their journey becomes personal, if it didn't already start out that way. This stereotype speaks to people. It becomes meaningful because people can identify with it. They live it, just not on such a grand and epic of a scale that's found in the stories. That's why the hero's journey has lasted since the time of antiquity up until this very second. Why it's going to continue to exist. It's life on a grand scale. It teaches you the moral of not giving up.

    These stories with ultra powerful characters straight from the beginning aren't helping anyone. It's not relatable, it's not honest. Rey from Star Wars, Wonder Woman, Captain Marvel... they're a false narrative on the mirror of the reality of life. They're not teaching girls to rise up and become. They're telling girls that they're super powerful just because they're girls, that they don't have to fight or work to get what they want most, and it's just not true.

    Ripley from Alien is a better role model. She had to rise to the occasion in the first movie to survive, as terrified as she was after losing her entire crew. She had to rise to the occasion to save a little girl in the second movie, after losing an entire elite military force against a larger and more terrifying threat. She wasn't super powerful, she was just an average woman that had to become more. The other movies were crap. They don't matter.
