Movies What's your favourite superhero movie?

[Tronky.it]

Ever since I was a kid, I've always loved superhero movies, except for a few that aren't even worth discussing (like Sony's modern Spider-Verse with Venom, etc.), including X-Men, Spider-Man, Batman, Superman, Avengers, and so on.

Sam Raimi's Spider-Man, however, remains my favorite (followed by the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy and Deadpool). It was a film capable of doing the impossible: illuminating both the mask and the man behind it. It's not a film with a thousand tacky fights and random epic lines, it's not a dark and heavy film that makes you reflect on the human race... rather, it's a film that delves into the psychology of the protagonist, Peter Parker. The way he experiences the world, how he treats people, how he is treated in turn, his doubts and fear of love... the shivers I felt every time I heard that phrase, "with great power comes great responsibility" and Aunt May's speech in the second movie... all of this has been lost over the years due to a cinematic universe that has flattened the characters, creating movies where they are "guests in their own home" (just look at how many characters Brand New Day has) and that has to create a long story that must then end with fireworks.

I also hate Sony for being capable of killing off its two golden gooses on its own—because despite the criticism, Garfield was also an excellent Spider-Man, unfortunately unlucky due to screenwriters I wouldn't even trust with Turkish tv series—but Raimi's Spider-Man is personally the best superhero movie ever made.

It's debatable, obviously. Which is your favorite?

As a child, I enjoyed Andrew Garfield Spider-Man. I hope you have a great day, and I also enjoy parody comedy films. I hope you have a great day.

The 90's Shadow and first (90's) Batman movie are fairly stand out examples of decent comic book movies. First Spiderman movie wasn't too bad, either. Dark Knight Rises was highly praised for good reason. Most aren't worth watching.

Superman (2025). I had super high expectations and it obliterated them and went even further beyond.
Prior to that I've always said Spider-Man 2 and the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy. I also really enjoyed the first two Captain America films.
I remember liking Batman (1989) too, but it's been ages since I last watched it.

 

[Zerpina]

My all time Favorite is Lady Death.
Myself I think it's a great movie... But I was a big fan of the Comic back when i was a Teen as well
Use to collect Chaos! Comics, Lady Death, Evil Ernie, Purgatori, and a few others.

Batman Returns

IronMan

For live action, Sam Raimi's Spider-Man (Even if I'm aware the sequel is the better movie).

For animation, Batman : Mask of the Phantasm, the perfect Batman movie.

 

[stealthRUSH stealthRUSH]

Unbreakable (2000)

Vanilla answer

The Tobey Mcguire Spiderman trilogy even 3 and its iconic Bully Mcguire dance

I simply love the way they adapted the character while downplaying the "Spider-Torture" while still making him tragic enough to be relatable, Alfred Molina will always be for me THE Doctor Octopus, to be fair the true villian of 2 is that pizza bitch (IT WAS A LITERAL MINUTE!)

Other contender must go to Spider-Verse, i am a sucker fur multiple animation style animations, and they managed to poke some fun at spidey's mythos while still being a solid plot and a fun romp

 

[zombie100379]

Batman 89 and Batman Returns , the first one especially because its the definitive versions of both batman and joker. i cannot stand christian bales over the top performance with his stupid shouty batman.

Liked this Superman too man. Could have used some fixes here and there for me, and didn't like new S on the costume. But god damn it bro, that gif, making think of Superman saying stuff like this dude. Deep thoughts then that tongue bro.... :

For me though, when it comes to Superman, it's this one for me.

Even with flaws, like more than the first movie. Christopher Reeve is my favorite Superman. Like Stamp as Zod, but I've never liked Hackman's performance of Luthor. Hated 3 and 4.

Favorite though, I'd say this.

Because after leaving the theater in 2003 pissed at that movie, This was what I wanted in a Hulk movie. I grew up with the TV series and the comics. I hated what the 2003 did. Sure this movie didn't do well. However I wonder if it's the case of like when I'd speak to people and they think it's a sequel to the 2003 movie, turning them off from watching it. Damn you Ang Lee.

i would have given him an oscar just for that scene with him finding lois in the car - i found that tough to watch as a child

Strangely, Sky High.

It crams so many things at once, it's hard to get bored with it.

Also, it kind of trolls the viewer.

I like Shin Kamen Rider and the Kamen Rider Tycoon Meets Kamen Rider Shinobi crossover movie-ish thing.
