Poll: Best Modern Superhero Film

[WakeTheDead1]

Im sure iv missed some important ones so thats what the Other option is for

Was a hard choice between dark knight and kick-ass for me but kick-ass won

NOTE - Did anyone else know kick-ass was an english film and the main character was english, had no idea until i watched the making of. He does a good american accent, makes me proud of my lil england

EDIT - cant believe i forgot Watchmen...

 

[Outright Villainy]

Hmm, either Iron man or Hellboy I'd say. The Batman ones were good and all, but I enjoyed those other two more. Particularly in terms of leading actors, Ron Perlman and Robert Downey jr are way better than Christian Bale.

 

[Sneaky-Pie]

Easily the Iron Mans.

Robert Downey Jr is a brilliant Tony Stark.

 

[electric discordian]

Constantine, what a great film, what great casting, Mr Reeves playing a cockney with a bit of scouse blonde haired left wing anarchistic magician who hates Maggie Thatcher. Setting it in America was another master stroke as was completely changing the back-story!

In all seriousness, Watchmen or V for Vendetta whilst not a faithful adaptation it was particularly entertaining!

 

[Hateren47]

Hellboy 1 or X-men 2 for a shared 1st place. Kick-Ass for number 3. Modern superhero movies are pretty bad over all if you ask me.

 

[the_pleasure_is_mine]

Easily Kick-Ass.

Very funny, very good and easily outstripped other superhero films for me.

 

[Buizel91]

Easily the Iron Mans.

Robert Downey Jr is a brilliant Tony Stark.

This along with the new Batman films

dark knight, for the fact alone that it sold me on the genre..^^
i'm actually not that much into comic books

 

[Lucane]

For me the others (Not including the X-men movies)have great high points but "Incredibles" was/is amazing throughout the whole movie.

 

[TheTaco007]

The Dark Knight managed to be an amazingly well written movie with fantastic acting, and little to no retarded CGI effects. It was realistic, engaging, and was a roller coaster all the way to the end.

 

[Phoenixmgs_v1legacy]

Good superhero movies don't exist.

If I had to pick one I guess I'd go with Death Note.

Spider-man 2, X2, Watchmen, Nolan's Batman, Iron Man, Kick Ass, Incredibles, and others would like to have a word with you.

 

[DustyDrB]

The Dark Knight. Though Spider-Man 2 is up there. I didn't think Spider-Man 3 was as bad as people made it out to be, nor the first as good. The cheesy design of the Green Goblin in the first hurt it quite a bit for me.

 

[Darth IB]

I really enjoyed Hancock. But Iron man is a close second.

 

[JacobyPAX]

Why isn't the Incredible Hulk on the poll. If Kick-Ass made it on there, the Incredible Hulk should have as well.

 

[SonicWaffle]

Constantine, what a great film, what great casting, Mr Reeves playing a cockney with a bit of scouse blonde haired left wing anarchistic magician who hates Maggie Thatcher. Setting it in America was another master stroke as was completely changing the back-story!

Didn't happen.

*rocks gently back and forth*

EDIT - cant believe i forgot Watchmen...

Good lord, how?! That awful sex scene is going to be burned into my memory for ever :-(

OT: Why is X-Men listed as a trilogy? There were only two films...

 

[Quad08]

And I have to pick just one?

Well, I just bought Kick-Ass so I'll go with that

 

[KimberlyGoreHound]

I'd say Hellboy - Guillermo Del Toro did an amazing job with them.

 

[zHellas]

That awful sex scene is going to be burned into my memory for ever

Yeah, I was a bit confused as to why they kept that in/put it in.
