Okay, so I just finished with the worst movies. Now I am doing the 10 best. Here they are....

10.The Incredible Hulk-we really needed this film and it was so much better than Ang Lee's sad attempt. This one actually had a villain in it and I enjoyed it way more.

9.X-Men-this film is good. It got me interested in comic book movies.

8.Superman(1978)-this will always be my favorite Superman film. It is a classic to me.

7.Spider-Man 2-way better than the first one and third. The best Spider-Man film.

6.X-Men 2-Way better than the first one and I liked the story and ending.

5.X-Men 3-I know a lot of people don't like this film and you will be shocked that it is on this list but i really loved it. It is MY opinion.

4.Batman Begins-this movie brought Batman back from the dead after the chaos of "Batman and Robin." If this film had not been made, Batman would still be dead.

3.Iron Man-Marvel's best film so far. RDJ was so good in this movie.

2.Watchmen-this film was so good and I thought about putting it as number one.

1.The Dark Knight-I don't need to say anything. Do I?

what about road to perdition or a history of violence, those were great, just nobody really sees them as a comic book movie cuz they dont know it is one.
i like the list except for xmen 3, i really had nothing against it but i wouldnt have put it on the list, especially that high

Glad to see Superman in there. It has really been clouded by modern takes on the genre.

I dont think Chris Reeves was a good Superman and Lex Luthor and his silly lackey was terrible. X-Men 3...was as bad as Daredevil and Batman & Robin. Where's Blade I'D even go with FF w\THE SILVER SURFER .Blade was better than ANY Superman movie thats been made and X-Men3, BUT hey thats just my take on things.

I liked Ang Lee's Hulk, I prefer it to the new one, I felt it was deeper and had an actual plot and character development, but thats my opinion

The re.... um make/boot of the hulk is the better out of the two and as for x men the second one was briliant especially the first few minutes with night-crawler.

x men 3 was alright but some things i just dont like about it. Like how juggernaught was just used for some rubbish jokes and how they tryed to make loads of fight scenes and the story was just too simple.

again, i like your choices (not necesarily the order though) but for me none of the X-Men films deserve to be on this list and Watchmen should be at No. 1!

Good Job man...I personally don't like X3 or the original Superman that much, but apart from that I totally agree.

my top 10

10. Howerd the duck (because I grew up watching it and loved it...still can enjoy it)

09. Batman (1989)-(first batman movie I ever saw and got addicted to the character, played Batman with my friends around the neighborhood because of this movie)

08. The Punisher (Tom Jane version) (even though they took liberties with Franks character it has had the best story out of the 3 attempts so far.)

07. Road to Perdition (when I first saw this movie in the theaters I had no idea it was based on a graphic novel and I loved the movie, a few years later I found the novel in a comic shop and had to add the movie to my CBM collection.)

06. X-Men 2 (I consider this the best of the 4 x-films, maybe that is just cause one of my favorite x-men Nightcrawler is in it...IDK)

05. Blade (Best story, best fight scenes, best of the blade franchise...Blade 2 was close but mostly just for del Toro's involvement)

04. 300. (I never read the GN so I don't know how close this movie is, but I heard it was pretty spot on, and I love this movie.)

03. Batman Begins (This movie rebooted one of my favorite comic characters film franchise, and did a damn good job.)

02. Iron Man (this movie was the epitome of what CBM's are made of, we need more like this, I have faith in Marvel.)

01. Spider-Man 2 (I think I am biased on this one considering Spidey is my favorite super hero.)

I haven't got to see Watchmen yet so that is why it isn't on the list but from the raves I hear about it on this site I'm sure it will be.

I wouldn't put watchmen up there, a great comic book but aas a movie it fails to capture greatness. It attempted to do to much in a single film leaving the characters criminally underdeveloped. Unless you already had an appreciation of the comic then the movie held next to nothing for you.

DurkinKnight: finally someone on here agrees with me that first Superman film wasnt good...no not at all.

thwhtknight: I agree with you. I seen Watchmen and maybe, because I never heard of them before the movie is why I didnt see what the hype was about. It was an O.K. movie at best just too much going one I could'nt really connect with the characters.

Osiris: until they rebooted Batman I thought Spiderman 1 was the best comicbook movie ever made...period.

@BLADE@ spidey 1 was amazing the first time I saw it cause nothing like that had been done before in a super-hero movie, and i still loved it till Spidey 2 came out, the story of two just blew the first one away and the fights were way more intense.

the funny thing is I don't even like Doc Ock... but after what happened in ASM 600 I'm getting a little more intrigued by him.

The 1st Superman movie was good for when it was made. I thought the whole spinning the world backward was bullshit and they should have left Lois dead, but it was a good movie. A lot of people ding it because it's not current and doesn't have the fx that movies do nowadays. Personally, I'd have Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles up there in the top 5. Great movie, even though it had shit for sequels. What about The Crow? Popeye? Sin City? V for Vendetta? I don't think the people who make up these lists are taking all of the good movies into account.
