Best Superhero Movies
i think the title of this list is pretty self-explanatory. so, check it out... oh, and i have linked the ones that have longer discussions on the Filmed But Not Forgotten blog.
1: Unbreakable
this one is M. Night's masterpiece
2: The Dark Knight/Batman
while i have said that tim burton's first Batman holds a special place in my movie heart and is still my favorite of all the batman films ever made, The Dark Night is sooooooo close behind that they deserve to be together on this list.
3: The Incredibles
great script, great animation. might still be my favorite pixar film.
4: Spider-Man II
Easily the best of the three films
5: Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World
original, visually stimulating, funny and one of the best films of 2010
6: The Mask Of Zorro
this is one you might not have thought of. but it's a good flick and lots of fun
7: X-Men II
bryan singer left the franchise after this one. he got out on a high note (too bad he hit a low note later with Superman Returns)
8: Kick-Ass/Defendor
two different takes on the "everyman" superhero thing
9: Superman 3
okay, this is gonna be the controversial one. while most people would put Superman I and/or II on a list like this if they were to put any of the Superman films on, i have to say that number three is actually my favorite of the Superman movies (ya, this surprised me too when i recently rewatched all four films). and if i ever get around to doing a podcast episode about the series i can discuss this in more depth, but quickly.....
the whole bit about superman fighting his dark side ("bad superman") is a really interesting idea. the film examines the superman character and the struggles of a hero. it doesn't get explored to the extent i would have liked, but still... and i even liked richard pryor's character. that's not to say there aren't any problems with the film (cause there definitely are), but that is for a longer discussion
