Well I think there is a tie between X2 and Spiderman for the Greatest Comic Film in my opinion. Superman and Batman were also good but Captain America with Eric Roberts... (i think) sucked its own ass big time. Plus the Spiderman soundtrack was off da chain I mean just listen to "Hero", Batman and Superman wish they could have got that song for their movies.

superman is a classic and batman. i think a new superman film would be ok if they follow the smallville plot and used more powerfully villans like braineyac and lobo or darkside. the batman begins will be good to.

now hopfully the new batman film protrays batman correctly for the first year, batman has to kill criminals like that, he has to be wanted by the authorities, he must be the vigilante he always was.
excuse me u never has? he use to be a vigilante, kill the criminals who opposed the common good, the old comics he did so, in the graphic novel Batman year one which the new film is based on he killed, he was a vigilante meaning he took the law into his own hands, he stopped killing after the first batman movie, or around the time period when he was taken in by the law and accepted. but he did kill in the past.
give me an issue where Batman has killed. Year One was a graphic novel out of continuity. writers do all kinds of shit to characters that are out of the character's normal behavior in one-shots. dont tell me youve never noticed that.
still batman is a very dark character, as is blade that is also why i like blade the dark and mystery about him, pretty much any hero whom the law is against i love.
Batman: Faith arc: Villians killed: 0
Batman: Prey arc: Villians killed: 0
Batman: Fear arc: Villians killed: 0; villians Batman risks his life to save: 1
Got counter-examples?

It's also made clear in Fear that James Gordon completely trusts Batman not to kill anyone, to the point that attempting to frame him would be pointless.
Besides, Legends of the Dark Knight stories aren't in continuity.

I've said this before and I'll say it again. When they adapt these books to movies, it's a given that people like us will generate the largest chunk of revenue, because we're very likely going to watch anyway, even if we don't like it (except for the Hulk, which I couldn't stomach at all--I tried, I really tried to watch it, but had to bail). As comic readers, we have to accept the fact that each title adapted will contain a certain number of anachronisms--it's a necessary evil: unfortunately, if the creators want to introduce all the characters and subject matter that they want, they have to cram it all in to a comparably tiny time-frame.
I think we could all pretty much nit-pick most of the titles, but what would be the point? I try my best to just enjoy the different spin, and not cling so rigidly to my expectations. Afterall, the adaptations are meant as tributes, truly labors of love by those who make them, for the benefit and enjoyment of the rest of us.
