I was thinking about this after seeing a thread in the X-men forums asking if X3 screwed up or helped the franchise, and it got me thinking.
Are we just too selfish and critical anymore about comic book movies?
More than ever?
I mean, X-men now has 3 pretty good movies with room with a potentially good 4th one. Spider-man (I don't want to hear about it Mr. Parker) has 2 pretty good movies and an interesting looking 3rd one on the way. Same with fantastic 4 setting themselves up, especially with silver surfer in the mix. Batman Begins was amazing, and everyone seems to like Superman Returns a lot which is something that will open the doors for more DC movies to be made. And others like Daredevil, Hulk, The punisher, Hellboy, Sin City, and others have their own little followings.
Techincally they are the best they have ever been, and there sequels have been above and beyond what they had been in the past.
Don't you guys remember the SHIT, and the once amazing movies that turned to SHIT
Superman-amazing intro of the super hero type movie franchise, but due to some producers greed and being naive let the story of Superman just slip away from the heart and turn to crap
(watch 'Look up in the sky' doc. Basically you can somewhat see the demise in Superman movies in numbers 1st- $300 mil, 2nd $130 mil, 3rd $100 mil, 4th $40 mil.)
Then there's Batman
1st (not bad/pretty good), 2nd (kinda wierd but cool), 3rd (what the hell is goin on here), 4th (What the FVCK was that???)
Oh and other stuff like Captain america, Punisher W/dolph, and Spawn (I don't remember him using machine guns in the comics)
