Re: List all the superhero movies you've seen in order from favorite to least favorite!

A note before we start: I'm not a comic reader at all, so these recommendations are purely based on how much I enjoyed each movie as a movie, rather than as adaptations.

If you want fun, uplifting movies, these are what I enjoyed (best liked listed first):

- The Incredibles (seriously, it's super cute, if you do not like this you probably aren't going to like any superhero movies!)
- Sky High (under-appreciated adorable Disney live-action gem about a superhero high school, with extra Kurt Russell & Bruce Campbell and a soundtrack made entirely of covers of 80s pop songs as icing on the cake)
- the first two X-Men films (then First Class). Watch the X-men be a big happy superpowered family, Wolverine be awesome and Prof X and Magneto have barely concealed love for each other. In all 3 (to varying degrees.))
- Both Hellboy movies - they're fun, funny, action-packed, cute and a bit offbeat - and the first one has clockwork Nazis. What more do you want in a movie?
- Megamind - so much love for Megamind. If you liked the Incredibles, you'll like this :)
- Raimi's Spiderman trilogy (The first two are basically superhero movies done right, and idgaf, Spiderman III is ridiculously entertainingly stupid in a good way - just prepare yourself for the stupid before you watch it)
- The Avengers (you will probably enjoy it more if you see the preceding movies, but they're not necessary to understand the plot)
- Iron Man (the 2nd one's okay) - RDJ is a sexy sassy mofo, the movie & sequel
- Tim Burton's Batman movies - campy costumed fun, but might seem a bit lacklustre compared to moder superhero movies
- Thor + Captain America (lumping the two together because I watched both basically for shirtless Chris Hemsworth and Chris Evans, and I was not disappointed)

And if you want something a bit grittier/ more depressing, there's Nolan's Batman movies. A shorter list, you might say.

Ones I don't recommend in no particular order:

- X-men 3: The Last Stand (just shitty & disappointing compared to the other films)
- Wolverine (ditto, but admittedly more entertaining than XIII, watch if you want something to rot your brain good)
- Both Hulk movies - just boring, really
- Superman Returns with Brandon Routh - boring & shitty, a glorious combo
- The George Clooney & Val Kilmer Batmans (though, really these are good fun if you can turn your brain off - actually Jim Carrey and Tommy Lee Jones as The Riddler and Two Face respectively are almost enough to make me swap Val Kilmer's to the other list. George Clooney's bat nipple suit leaves him forever lingering in bad superhero movie purgatory though)
- Watchmen (just didn't like it - read the comic instead, or at least first, then decide whether you want to see it)
- Ghostrider - I can't say it's good, but if you like stupid and Nic Cage this might just work for you
- Kickass - a lot of people love this - not me - but if you like cartoonish hyperviolence interspersed with Apatow like teenage boy humour, this could also work for you
- Stallone's Judge Dredd - painful in the extreme, but almost worth it for the 'It's a lie!' scene - but you can watch that on youtube anyway
- Elektra - just really bad.
- Any of the TMNT movies - though the secret of the ooze has Vanilla Ice, if you're into that kind of thing

And there we have all the superhero movies I can remember anything meaningful about. Hope you find something you like. And I hope I find something better to do with my day besides compile this list...

Sky High! Definitely underrated.
