Very interesting list I must say. Definitely didn’t expect Spidey 2 at the top, but to each their own.

The Rocketeer and The Shadow would make a great 1930’s double bill. Add Raiders to a 30’s triple bill — too bad Raiders doesn’t fall under your ‘comic book’ definition. — Laffmaster Bill

Mystery Men and MIB should also be considered….Laffmaster Bill

Glad somebody added Watchmen to the list. What, no Richie Rich? — Laffmaster Bill

I love the list. Don’t agree with it at all, but enjoyed it nonetheless.

I don’t know why people have such trouble with “its” and “it’s”. It’s very simple: if it still makes sense if you substitute “it is”, then “it’s” (the contraction) is correct. If not, use “its”. The other thing to remember is the possessive for “it” doesn’t use an apostrophe.

CORRECT: I need you to fix my car’s engine.
CORRECT: I need you to fix its engine.
WRONG: I need you to fix it’s engine.
In the third example, with the apostrophe, “it’s” is a contraction for “it is”. If you substitute “it is” for “it’s”, you end up with “I need you to fix it is engine.” This doesn’t make sense.

Class dismissed.

Great stuff, Jay. Although I have my reservation as far as Hellboy and some of the oldies are concerned, but as long as you have Spider-Man 2 on #1, you have my vote

I really liked the list until I got to the bottom. Spider Man 2? That movie wasn’t even the best in the trilogy let alone every comic book movie ever. That movie really shouldn’t even be in the top ten. You say Ironman shironman but I think everyone will agree that Ironman was a better film than Spiderman 2.

Blade Trinity
Batman 2
WANTED (!)
Hulk and The Incredible Hulk combined (for the best Hulk-experience)
You just have to watch both, and forget the bad parts in your head afterwards, making one kickass movie.
Same goes with The (two most recent, haven’t seen the Dolph-one) Punisher-movies. Although Punisher War Zone is like being inside a comic.
The Spiderman-movies are somewhat dorky, the CGI in the first one is… is.. Well, ragdoll anyone?
If I have to pick one of em, it’s gotta be Spiderman 3. Except Venom is waaay to small and humanlike.

Correction: Burton had two studio films prior to Batman. You forgot what got him the job: Beetlejuice. Cool list. I don’t agree completely with some of the choices or placement, but you do make mention of some notable movies.
