TV/Movies Megathread

[Eddie Teach]

I rank them all below 6/7 Batman movies.

I rank them all below 6/7 Batman movies.

I'm of the opinion that the best Marvel films haven't been done by Marvel (Spiderman 1/2, a few of the X-Men - First Class particularly), despite Marvel doing a few good films itself.

Spiderman 2 is, to me, one of the best superhero films ever. Would rank it only below TDK, probably.

Toby Maguire over '89 Batman? 

[Queequeg]

89 Batman has aged about as well as that peach I forgot deep in my backpack for 8 weeks in amy backpack in Middle School.

[Eddie Teach]

See, it even passes the Spellus test! 

[celedhring]

Nah, I agree that Burton's Batmans haven't aged gracefully. Batman Returns was always my favorite anyway.

Spiderman 3 soured a lot of people on Toby Maguire's Spiderman (and for good reason, it was stupidly horrible and horribly stupid), but the first two films are very good.

[Sheilbh]

First Batman's still the best!

[Malthus]

First Batman's still the best!

You mean the TV show? Agreed!

Pure. Awesomeness. 

[Ideologue]

Ugh Ide...

How do you rank the MCU movies? I need to know before I decide how bad to rip into you tomorrow when I'm at work and on a real computer.

Thor
Avengers
Iron Man
Thor 2
Iron Man 2
Cap
Hulk
Cap 2
Iron Man 3

[celedhring]

Iron Man 2 5th best? 

Above both Cap movies?


Mine:

Thor
Cap
Cap 2
Iron Man
Thor 2
Iron Man 3
Avengers
Iron Man 2
Hulk

[Josquius]

Thor top?
That's one of the poorer efforts for me.

[frunk]

Of the ones I've seen:

Avengers
Iron Man
Iron Man 2
Thor
Cap
Iron Man 3
Hulk

[Liep]

Avengers on top? And I'm the one on CdM's bad list.

[Eddie Teach]

Iron Man
Avengers
Thor
Iron Man 2
Cap
Hulk
Iron Man 3

Based on hazy recollections and arbitrary judgments. All of these movies are in the 5-7.5 range.

[Josquius]

Of the ones I've seen:

Avengers
Iron Man
Iron Man 2
Thor
Cap
Iron Man 3
Hulk

Much better.
I think I'd go with-

Iron Man
Avengers
Captain America (purely for the first half)
Iron Man 2
Thor (a few awesome scenes but too much space based hippy fantasy stuff)
Iron Man 3 (what were they thinking)

I hadn't realised how subpar a track record there was until I came to think about it. Iron Man and Avengers are the only two that I would really class as good.
