    For the past couple of years a whole new fad started in the movie industry,
    redoing practically all of the popular characters Superman, Spiderman, Elektra etc

    anyways whats your favorite?


    mines definitely Ultraviolet or Spiderman or X-Men
    but the first Batman felt like such a drag, just dragged through the movie

    Spiderman (Not the first one), X-men, or Ironman.

    By the first Batman do you mean the very first movie, starrin' Michael Keaton n' Jack Nicholson? Cause that's my favourite Batman movie. ^^

    Batman movies slowly went downhill afterwards.

    i'm not sure why the sudden influx of comic adaptations, i believe it may be the comic industries answer to the continual advancement of electronic media and the slowing of comic sales imo.

    I loved spiderman till Iron Man came out. Now Iron Man has taken the top honor as my favorite comic adaptation. Saw spidey twice in theaters. Saw Iron Man 5 times so far.

    Iron man = 1
    Spidey = 0.

    But I have to say that i was a huge fan of the way the Batman series has been retooled. I feel that Christian Bale is a perfect fit as Bruce Wayne and can see there being a huge series with him at the helm. I'm mixed on The Dark Knight, but I hope it's a fitting movie that could give Iron Man a run for it's money.

    Ghost Rider = Fail

    I actually kinda liked Ghost Rider. Sure, not the best plot, but come on, a flaming skull is pretty awesome. >_>

    Loved Iron Man. Downey Jr. definitely portrayed the "snarky *******" character quite well.
    Batman remake was awesome; I had to watch the original in some animations class and I swear, I almost fell asleep. So when the new one came out, I wasn't too sure about it, but I didn't regret seeing it at all.

    Superman Returns = epic fail.

    And to be honest, I didn't really like the third X-Men movie. The whole thing with the Phoenix and then everything dying with a mutant war going on at the same time didn't really fit with the other two movies.

    First Hulk sucked, this summer's sequel is awesome. I reccommend it if you like to see burning cars thrown around and stuff blowing up.

    Spidey was always good. Third one was pushing it a little, but it didn't quite jump the shark.

    hmm...
    i really liked the spider-man adaptation. i was really into the animated series and that got me hooked.

    i also really enjoyed ghost rider. my friends told me to watch it, and i thought it was amazing. the visual effects were awsome!!

    i was never a fan of th batman movies to be honost. when my dad forced me to see "batman begins", i loved it. seeing all the cool effects, and the ending was awsome.

    i was never a fan of super man in my life. don't like superman.

    I liked Iron Man. I didn't like the 2nd Spiderman Movie, but I did like the third one. I didn't like Superman. Ghost Rider was okay. The Hulk movie that just came out was alright.

    Lezze here...

    Spiderman 2 and 3, (The first one I thought was ok but was kinda slipsod in some ways more than others. And yes, I no SM 3 was WAY to packed but I still loved it) Iron man, The Incredible Hulk, and X-men 1 and 2. (haven't watched 3 yet)

    I haven't watched any DC movies sadly. I watched parts of Batman begin in science class but school ended before we finished the movie.

    Iron Man ftw!!!! Spiderman 3(unlike some people I think it was the best out of the three except that they killed off Venom and Harry). Batman! Ghost Rider was pretty cool. Although some of it didn't make sense at times(the water guy attacked him even though he didn't need to).
    Superman Returns didn't even have a real climax! He was just pushing a giant ****ing rock!...oh well.
