1a. Nolan's Batman
1b. Sin City
3. Watchmen
4. X-1&2
5. Superman 2
6. The Incredibles
7. Batman/Returns/Forever

#1 Dark Knight
2 Batman (1989)
3 X-men
4 X-men First Class
5 Iron Man
6 Sin City(comic book)
7 Blade (ehhh)
8 Spiderman
9 Spiderman 2

15 Superman (1978)

Watchmen
Sin City

If we are including those, I would add those to my small list after Superman and before Dark Knight.

Watchmen because it has something to say and Sin City for the cinematic eye-candy.

Batman Begins

Talk about frickin snoozeville, such a slow movie

How has no one ranked Kick arse?

1) The Dark Knight
2) X-Men First Class
3) Batman Begins
4) Mask of the Phantasm (more people should be listing this)
5) X-Men 2
6) Spiderman 2
7) Watchmen
8) Kickass

Solid list, this is pretty much what my list would be (I haven't seen X-Men FC yet, though). The only major change I would make would be having Watchmen higher. That was a top 5 super hero movie, IMO.

Also, Mask of the Phantasm is amazing. Oddly enough, I was actually planning on watching it again tomorrow.

Sky High
Zoom
Super Hero Movie

X-Men 2
TMNT 1 and 2 (if that counts)
TDK
Spiderman 2
Blade trilogy
Batman (89)
Batman Begins
X-Men Origins: Wolverine
X-Men
Spiderman

That's a good top ten IMO (counting each line as one). I'm one of the few that doesn't really jizz on Iron Man. Also, I saw X-Men: First Class last night, and I thought it was really just okay. Nothing special IMO.

BTW, Wiki has a good list of "superhero movies" for reference: LINK

Dark Knight

Me too. The first 45 minutes of the first one was awesome. As good as it gets for superhero movies. But it really tails off after that. The lack of a good villain hurts it. I don't think it holds up well after multiple watches. The second one had great villains and I thought it was about as good as they could have asked for. I like it about the same.

Completely agree. Love everything up to escaping from the cave, then it goes downhill quickly. Same with Thor. Up until his banishment, the film was great. Plus it's really the exact same plot, but with Vikings.
