I think TDK Rises and Avengers would both make a new list…which I suppose will be coming soon now…

I don’t think _The Avengers_ would make my top ten either. It wasn’t as good as _Batman Begins_, which is currently in the tenth spot on your list, but I might rate it equal with one or two that you rated higher.

And I’m 100% with you on the Top 3. And on Hulk, too. The biggest failing of that movie was the ridiculous look of the Hulk (and that bad CGI scene outside the cabin with the hulk-dogs). I think if they would have toned the “incredibility” down a bit, it would have been much more appreciated.

I still don’t get how you liked Superman Returns so much – I found it unbearable. The first X-Men was really lacking to me. Batman Begins as well. I haven’t had the desire to watch either a second time. But they both did a great job of setting the table. The three I’d slide in to replace them:

Blankman*
Watchmen (I didn’t read the book – probably helped me out on this’n)
Robocop (qualifies as within the genre I think)
Kick-Ass (only seen it once – may change my mind)

(*just kidding – Blankman is terrible)

I know the fan boys will kill me, but I find that it takes way too seriously. Plus Bale’s Batman Voice and Heath Ledger get pretty annoyoing after a while.

I agree with Mr. Weber about The Incredibles, and I’d have to argue for an earlier Brad Bird film as well: The Iron Giant. It may not immediately register as a “superhero movie,” but the titular character works through the questions of identity that so many of these other characters do, and by the course of events and self-determination, he becomes a true superhero (“I’m Superman”). It’s such a terrific, moving, underrated film. It would probably take the top spot if I were to make this list.

The story was better than the first and the creature creation was some of Guillermo Del Toro’s best work.

“Flash Gordon” might win a spot on my Top 10. Best superhero theme music ever.

“Blade 2” would make my list.

Of the Sam Raimi flicks, I liked “Darkman” better than the first “Spider-Man.” “Spider-Man 2” rightfully the best in the bunch.

Is “The Matrix” a superhero movie? Curious what other people think.

Tim Burton’s second “Batman” movie was amazing. Burton and Nolan have both successfully captured different takes on the character.

“Superman Returns” was a mess.

“Hulk” was a mess. I interpreted Ang Lee’s comic-booky edits as a weakness. He couldn’t figure out how to make a movie (where one thing happens at a time) out of a comic book, which has to employ some very creative art and writing techniques in order to tell a story as clearly as possible. We’ve seen plenty of directors deftly handle non-linear editing without leaning on similar editing crunches. (See “Pulp Fiction.”)

If “Watchmen” doesn’t make the cut, can I nominate it for best Superhero movie trailer? I remember getting chills the first time I saw that thing (the one with the Smashing Pumpkins remix). Too bad the movie didn’t really live up.

Lastly, I know it’s more fun without “Dark Knight” in the top spot, but calling it anything other than the Best Superhero movie ever is being contrary for the sake of being contrary.

I still think that the Dark Knight is the best superhero film it had better action scenes, a tighter story and phenomenal acting which spidey 2 and X2 just fall short of.

But I think Batman Begins should be higher. It never gets the love I think it deserves. Although I’m happy its on the list. Is Hellboy not a superhero?

Hulk and Superman Returns… ballsy moves.

I just thought Iron Man 2 was several notches above Iron Man.

X-2’s saving grace: Nightcrawler. And Spidey 2 is definitely my favorite of the three. Yeah, and they’re rebooting it too early.

Great list otherwise, although it strikes me that Superhero movies seem to be a more recent development, other than as previews
