1. Sin City...so well done, cant wait for watchmen
2. upcoming Dark Knight....based on the prologue this will be classic
3. 30 Days of Night...very well done, absolutely riveting
4. V for Vendetta..... pure genius
5. 300.....not a huge fan, but the box office definitely speaks for this one.

I am so looking forward to Dark Knight, goosebumps of excitement. Joker yay! Batman Begins was pretty awesome and so was V.
I've actually been pretty impressed with the X-Men movies as well. Granted, i haven't seen the 3rd one as I was told not to...
Spider-man has been pretty good although the last one was...odd. And I really wanted to see a good venom and he was pretty good for the whole 5min of screen he had. *sigh*
I haven't seen Road to Perdition yet but it was supposed to be good. DD had nice effects :) Oh! they are also making a Hulk 2. I didn't care to much for the first one but i will probably be seeing the second one as well.

I 3rd the excitement for the Dark Knight film. I think I might wee myself. I also agree that the X-Men films are some of the best, and that's coming from a DC fan. Spiderman is also brilliant except it does down hill in the series, I liked the fact vemon has been added but the story was lame and too out there. I actually also enjoyed the Fantastic Four films even though they are often slated, I think they are good! Also the 'Superman Returns' film was wicked cool but Kate Bosworth still doesn't do Lois justice for me.

See, I haven't found any of the other superhero films (aside from Spider-man) all that good. I don't think that Batman Begins was anything other than mediocre, the storyline was too weak for me. I never saw Superman Returns, so I can't judge that one. But the X-Men movies have not impressed me- with the exception of Nightcrawler's scene in the oval office, lol. I also never saw the first Hulk, but was warned about it several times. Never saw FF2, but FF1 wasn't very good, nor was Ghost Rider. And of course, the bottom of the barrel is where Daredevil, Elektra, and Catwoman reside.
That said, there are a couple of superhero flicks I'm kind of waiting on. The upcoming Iron Man looks really good. I'm anticipating Dark Knight mainly b/c I really wanna see Heath Ledger as the Joker. Haven't heard enough about Watchmen to decide one way or the other and I don't expect much from the next Hulk either- but at least it's supposed to be closer to the comic than the first one.
