X2

1. X2 - Still the king as far as Marvel movies go. It had everything, including a great cliffhanger ending.

2. Spider-Man - The best origin story of the bunch, plus it features the most iconic Marvel image: Peter and MJ's upside-down kiss.

3. Spider-Man 2 - Almost as much fun as the original, with a fantastic villain in Alfred Molina's Doc Ock.

4. Iron Man - Robert Downey Jr.'s spot-on casting as Tony Stark goes a long way.

5. X-Men - This brought the superhero genre back in a big way and made a franchise star out of Hugh Jackman's Wolverine.

6. Blade - Features Wesley Snipes in peak form and a delicious turn from Stephen Dorff as villainous vampire Deacon Frost.

7. The Avengers - Size doesn't always matter but it made a difference here, with Marvel's individual gems coming together to form its crown jewel.

8. The Incredible Hulk - Not quite incredible but still one of the better Marvel movies considering how Edward Norton makes you care about the man inside the monster.

9. Captain America: The Winter Soldier - A fun sequel that improves upon the original and adds some solid supporting characters to the mix.

10. X-Men: First Class - Just when the franchise needed a fresh take, along came Matthew Vaughn's swinging’ period blockbuster featuring some of the hottest up-and-coming stars in Hollywood. If only Kevin Bacon's villain was worthy of fighting all those new young heroes.

11. Blade II - Guillermo del Toro brought his unique vision to the vampire franchise and if nothing else, distinguished itself from the superior original by bringing something new to the table.

12. Thor - The Shakespearean family drama between Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston and Anthony Hopkins really works but once Thor visits Earth, things get silly pretty quickly, even if the Australian is solid as the hammer-wielding God.

13. The Wolverine - James Mangold gave the character new life by dropping him in a Japanese setting. With no other stars around to offer support, Jackman digs deep to carry the movie on his sturdy shoulders.

14. Captain America: The First Avenger - After a very promising start, this movie begins to unravel at the midway point. It still serves as a strong introduction to the character, but the second half felt a little undercooked.

15. X-Men: The Last Stand - An overstuffed sequel that still managed to do an impressive job handling mature metaphors for mutants. It gets more grief than it deserves because it was directed by Brett Ratner.

16. Iron Man 3 - One of those movies where you're having so much fun, you forget that none of it makes any sense. Shane Black movies are always entertaining but this one is still a bit all over the place.

17. Spider-Man 3 - By the end of this movie, Sam Raimi was pushing his luck. Too many villains and emo Spidey felt like a filmmaker just going through the paces.

18. Iron Man 2 - Not quite a disaster but certainly a disappointment. The movie never lived up to the trailers.

19. The Amazing Spider-Man - Sadly, strong performances aren't enough to make a superhero movie successful. The reboot spent too much time rehashing an origin story that had been told years earlier, so no matter how good Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone's chemistry was, this movie was always doomed. I mean, The Lizard? Really?

20. Blade: Trinity - Every time I try to convince myself that this movie was fun, I picture Jessica Biel killing vampires while listening to an iPod. Yes, David Goyer's movie has a cool soundtrack, but that's just unacceptable.

21. Daredevil - The stuff Ben Affleck's nightmares are made of. Way too vanilla to be dangerous or even memorable.

22. Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer - The Silver Surfer was cool, but the four heroes remained anything but fantastic.

23. Fantastic Four - So bland, I can barely remember anything about it, including the forgettable four.

24. X-Men Origins: Wolverine - A mess that is best remembered for teasing a Deadpool movie that no one wants.

Captain America (1990) - So dated, I don't think I'll ever see it.

Elektra - What, you expected me to see a “Daredevil” spinoff?

Hulk - I've seen parts of this movie but not enough to properly rate it and justify its inclusion above.

The Fantastic Four: The Movie - See: “Captain America (1990)”

Ghost Rider - Too ridiculous to entertain the thought of watching.

Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance - Ditto.

Howard the Duck - I may have seen this as a kid but I must be repressing the memory as an adult. Oh well.

Man-Thing - C'mon… I don't even know what this is. I had to look it up.

The Punisher (1989) - As much as I love Dolph Lundgren, I swore that “Pentathlon” was the last movie I'd see with him in the lead.

The Punisher (2004) - After the joys of “Broken Arrow” and “Face Off,” I don't think I wanted to ruin my image of bad-ass John Travolta by seeing this one.

Punisher: War Zone - This wasn't my franchise to begin with and Ray Stevenson didn't get me to start watching.

Thor: The Dark World - I'll probably see this before “Avengers: Age of Ultron” comes out, but it seemed too weird and magical for my taste, even though I enjoyed the first film.

My List

Seen:

1. X-Men Origins: Wolverine	Yeah, I know. This will be controversial here, but I loved it and I'm not ashamed of that. Gambit, Wolverine, and just about everything about it was awesome for me. Even the game that came with it.
2. Captain America: The First Avenger	So, I couldn't remember earlier why I liked this movie, but I just went back and checked and everything about it was amazing. A great introduction for Captain America.
3. Dark Knight Rises	Here comes more controversy. I loved Bane in this movie, despite so many hating the way he was. I loved his voice, I think Kyle was a great Catwoman, and Bale I believe is a great Batman. I really loved this movie.
4. Blade	Blade was awesome and Wesley Snipes was an awesome Blade. I don't think I need to continue here.
5. X-Men	I remember watching this for the first time and boy was it awesome. Hell, I even enjoyed Professor Xavier for once, only because Stewart's awesome.
6. Batman Begins	The whole story behind Batman really caught my interest. The whole Batman joining a secret society and being taught by one of his greatest enemies was just awesome.
7. X-Men: First Class	Sue me, buffoons. I thought it was excellent and entertaining, despite the inclusion of Frost.
8. Iron Man	A great Introduction to the character of Iron Man. Just to let you all know, I didn't really connect or like Iron Man until RDJ showed me how great the character was.
9. The Dark Knight	Yes, all three of the Nolan movies made my top 10 films. Despite this one being the most well received, it's actually my least favorite of the three. Mainly because I'm not a fan of Two-Face. The awesome performance from Ledger made up for that though. Joker was amazing in that film. My favorite Joker ever.
10. Blade II	Although not the greatest film, I think just the awesomeness of having Blade back for a second film caught my interest. Snipes is still awesome in this movie too, lol. The movie was great, but definitely didn't compare to the original.
11. The Wolverine	Fucking amazing. Seeing the beginning of the movie was fantastic. I finally got to see the rage within the Wolverine like I never really thought I got to see in the other movies. Not to mention the Silver Fucking Samurai, my favorite Wolverine villain ever, even if he wasn't the best in the movie, lol. Oh, and I like Viper. That's three great appearances in one film!
12. Iron Man 2	I didn't even know who Whiplash was. I quickly got attached though. Iron Man once again proved me that I was missing out all of the years that I wasn't really digging his character. This is the reason I started reading Iron Man comics, and I'm not disappointed.
13. Thor	I'm not that big of a fan of Thor, and I haven't been ever. I think that this did a great job portraying the character though. Maybe it's just me, but for once I was kind of attached to Thor.
14. Ghost Rider	Nicholas Cage? In a good movie? These Urban Legends are funny, but I promise you that I actually loved this movie.
15. Watchmen	Something different and cool. This film was like no other comic book film, and I thought that was a good break away from the traditional comic book movies.
16. The Punisher (2004)	Once again, despite what you people may think, I loved this movie too. I'm easy to please.
17. The Incredible Hulk (2008)	Maybe not the best movie, but for a Hulk movie to actually be watchable? It makes it high on my list. It was great though, and I think Norton is the second best Hulk there is.
18. The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)	For the first time, Dr. Connors turned into the Lizard on the big screen. They executed it perfectly too. I still want to play the game though.
19. Thor: The Dark World	Despite this being one of my favorite Marvel films, it's getting to be so low on the list because....I wasn't really interested in Thor most of the time, but rather Loki. Thor was great, but Malekith and Loki were the main attractions here.
20. Howard The Duck	This movie may be utterly ridiculous, but my nostalgia sense are kicking in. I loved this as a younglin' and I think it was awesome.
21. Spider-Man (2002)	Maybe it was just me, but I liked the Goblin in this movie. Way better than the emo human that will be playing him soon enough, lol. No, the movie was seriously a ton of fun though.
22. The Avengers (2012)	Ruffalo is my favorite Hulk. Introduces Loki, which is amazing. After the first movie, Iron Man was on my most liked list. Same with Cap. Thor maybe not so much, but nonetheless, I was still fine by him being in the movie.
23. Spider-Man 3	This is where I start going downhill with the movies. I liked Spider-Man 3, I'll be the first to admit it, and probably the only one to really mean it. I'm not a fan of Sandman though, and the New Goblin was pretty stupid. I liked Topher Grace though, even if he didn't fit the Venom role completely. The dancing on the sidewalk made up for that though.
24. Elektra	I've never really heard any of you guys talk about this movie, and I'm assuming that you all don't like it. My only problem with the movie is that I didn't really know any of the people in it except Elektra, so I couldn't really connect with any of them.
25. X2	Everybody else thinks this was an improvement and the beginning of the movie led me to believe that, but it really wasn't my favorite X-Men movie.
26. X-Men: The Last Stand	This movie was pretty bad. Maybe it's just my love of the X-Men that I couldn't put it below the other movies? I honestly don't know.
27. Daredevil	Despite what other people say, I liked this movie and think Affleck was pretty good. My only problem with this movie was Kingpin being black (no, I'm not racist and yes I love Coffee, but Kingpin's white in my eyes) and Bullseye looking stupid as hell. I don't blame those flaws on Affleck though.
28. Iron Man 3	The Whole Mandarin thing....just ruined the movie for me, I'm sorry. The Rest was good though.
29. Green Lantern	Hector Hammond's really stupid, but I liked this movie. I think Reynolds was pretty good as a Green Lantern. I liked the humor in the movie, even if I don't know that it was necessarily supposed to be humor. Alright film in my opinion though.
30. Fantastic Four (2005)	I'm not really a fan of these guys, but the movie was alright. I am a fan of Doom though, so that part I liked.
31. Catwoman	Ehhhhh. I don't know why, but I didn't think the movie was horrible. Also, I think Halle was a great Catwoman, it was just the story of the movie that bored me for the most part.
32. Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer	I don't like Fantastic Four, now they add Silver Surfer, who I also don't like? I was destined to hate this movie. Though, somehow it's still better than other films. Somehow.
33. Jonah Hex	Megan Fox is my main complaint here, I'm not going to lie. I actually really liked this movie, but can't stand anything with her. It didn't help that Jonah Hex is such an obscure character and they, to my knowledge, had no real hype behind the movie.
34. Man of Steel	This is where the list of movies I absolutely hated start. I just literally couldn't stand anything about this movie. Maybe it's because I just finished watching Smallville right before I watched the movie and had different stances on how those characters should've been portrayed, but as of right now, I still hate this movie so much.
35. Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance	It took me 5 times to actually sit through this movie from start to finish. It was that boring. So disappointing, as I was actually looking forward to it until I actually watched it.
36. Batman Returns	I don't think I saw a good Batman film up until Batman Begins, but gosh this one sucks so much. I liked Penguin, that's about it.
37. Superman II	I don't see what was so special about this movie. I really don't.
38. Batman & Robin	I hate Arnold so much, which was my main problem with the movie, since I like Freeze so much. They ruined one of my favorite Characters with somebody that I hate so much.
39. Punisher: War Zone	A huge disappointment from the first film. It sadly didn't catch my interest at all.
40. Batman Forever	I'm sorry. I love Carrey, but not in my comic movies. No matter how funny or stupid they're supposed to act, he definitely should not play them.
41. Spider-Man 2	Do you think it's weird I have this one placed so low and SM3 placed so high? Well, it's because I absolutely hate Doc Ock and have never liked the character. Put him in a movie as the main focus and I'm bound to not gain any interest whatsoever.
42. Superman Returns	I don't really remember anything about his movie except that I hated it.
43. Blade Trinity	They should've stopped with the second one. I'm sorry, Triple H can't act and should've had no part in this movie.
44. Swamp Thing	Sad, because I love Swamp Thing in the comics. I don't necessarily see how they could make a good film though. Maybe in the future, but this one's plain horrible.
45. Man-Thing	I've never really been interested in Man-Thing. This movie was just the worst Comic movie I've ever seen though. The WORST.

I thought that Spider-Man 2 was excellent, easily the best of the original trilogy. Spider-Man 3 was garbage. I thought that the first movie was good but not fantastic.

The first Blade was excellent as well. Better than the sequel, regardless of what fap-happy Guillermo Del Toro fans have to say about it.

Del Toro did the second Blade flick? That explains so much...
