Ok, I just realized I forgot the Dark Knight. Which would slot in ahead of the Captain America's.

I actually thought Maquire was great in the 1st two. Definitely had the nerdy, loser type down pat. Dunst was ok I guess.

Maguire was a great Peter Parker IMO.

Dunst was just really hot. lol

MOTP is just an amazing movie.

I maintain the just by being animated it will forever be historically underrated. You make that a live action movie and it's almost a dead certain top 5 movie for everyone. Which is kinda silly IMO, a good movie is a good movie.

Another that I thought was very underrated, but might still have trouble getting onto my list is League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Not well recieved, but I rather enjoyed it.

Also, Mystery Men...

League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is somewhere in between a good movie and a campy awful movie. Its rewatchable for sure but its almost too campy for me. Parts of it are like watching Hellboy and parts of it are like watching The Three Musketeers (2011). I probably wouldn't have an issue with someone putting in their top 25 although top 10 would be kinda silly.

Its been too long since I've seen Mystery Men. I need to watch that again.

Also haven't seen Kickass but somehow managed to see most of Kickass 2 which..eh...

Kickass 2 is fine but the first one is fantastic. Highly recommended.

I thought my opinion of that film was mostly fueled by nostalgia until I watched it again a few years back. Still great. Actually the only reason I went back and re-watched was because of how great Under the Red Hood was.

Also, Teen Titans: The Judas Contract will be a top 10ish movie.

One of the 10 best stories in comic book history.

Not a huge fan of the genre and I haven't seen a lot of the movies on most people's lists so I don't think I'm qualified to give a respectable list. That being said, I was a huge Spiderman fan as a kid and saw all 3 of the Tobey McGuire movies so I just want to make a comment about those.

I realize I'm very much in the minority but I have never understood all the love for Spiderman 2. That one is by far my least favorite of the 3. I just found that it hit way too many of the same beats as the first one, especially as it related to the main villain. I didn't need another brilliant scientist known to and respected by our hero to become the villain despite his good intentions after his project goes terribly wrong.

At least in Spiderman 3 we finally got a real bad guy in Venom. Of course turning into Venom made him even worse than he already was. The other 2 "villains" both turned good at the end (kind of lame) and were somewhat sympathetic characters, but at least they were in their right minds when they did what they did.

Spider-man 3 was atrocious except for the Spidey/Goblin chase scene and the 2 on 2 bedlam slugfest at the very end.

Haven't watched one since Ledger died.

Unless Birdman counts. And if it does, it's not making my list anyway.
