2. Spider-Man
[Got the character down better than the other 2, didn't bog it down with forced romance, and didn't have unnecessary, off the wall cheesy humor and such or lazy writing.]
3. X2: X-Men United
[Nice characterization and balance, while keeping up with the moral issues and not altering any characters too much. The first comic book film to go a different route without straying too far.]
4. Sin City / V for Vendetta
[Faithful, direct, and unaffected by hype. They set out to do a film version of these products and simply did, rather than try to create a franchise or toy line from it.]
5. X-Men
[Great way to start off a series with true characters and an all-encompassing storyline. Replace Toad with Blob or someone cooler and cut out Storm's retarded line, and you've got a great X-Men film.]
Bottom 5: (I haven't bothered to see Catwoman, Steel, the campy Batman film, or Elektra, so I won't add those, but I don't think I'd have to)
5. Fantastic 4
[Ridiculous in terms of action, weak in the hero worship department, and a little too hesitant to switch Ben back and forth. At no point did I give a damn about any of the characters or feel like Doom was even a threat. And c'mon, "No, lets!".]
4. Hulk
["Hey, I have an idea. How about we take the strongest character in comics and make him fight dogs? No? Not big enough? Well, then how about we make him stand next to Absorbing Man, but not fight him? Did I mention Absorbing Man is now his father, who has more to do with the story than Bruce? Oh, wait, we're not calling him Bruce Banner either, we're calling him Krenzler. And even while we're doing this retarded stuff, we're going to cut the film up into lots of little pieces rather than keep it one solid screen, because we want them to feel like they're doing work while watching the movie rather than enjoy it." This film should've been about Bruce becoming the Hulk and his interactions with the government, not about some wigged out janitor.
3. Batman Forever
[Ingredients include poor casting for Robin, two villains that are just doing imitations of Nicholson's Joker, and an emotionless female lead, mix together with bright lights, a poor score, and a cheese factor. Oh yeah, and don't forget the Statue of Liberty...randomly in Gotham...]
2. X-Men 3: The Last Stand
[Let's just kill everyone off in worthless ways, rush the whole film, deny the moral issues by making Rogue give in, throw Colossus out there as if he's a big point to the script when he contributes in no ways, add characters that aren't anything like they should be (and then kill them off), and make Quill an asian guy named Kid Omega with no telepathic powers. Oh yeah, and let's do it in as few minutes as possible, and at the end, we'll have had no reason to go through anything because there's no worthwhile conclusion.]
1. Batman and Robin
[To mirror Batman Begins...do I even need to explain?]
NoFate007, I agree with everything you put down in your post except for Fantastic Four. I thought it was better than most people give it credit for. Other than that, I loved the analysis of each film.
1. Superman the Movie/Superman II - Donner Cut
2. Batman '89
3. Blade II
4. Spider-Man 2/Batman Returns
5. Batman Begins/Sin City
Least Favourite:
1. x2 (only two worthwhile scenes in the entire movie for me, and one wasn't even a scene, just colossus kicking ass)
2. Superman Returns
3. Elektra
4. Batman and Robin
5. Catwoman
Wow.... it was so bad I even forgot about that Punisher movie. Come to think of it, Dolph ruined Masters of the Universe... or was that just a bad movie?
