Best superhero movie other than the Dark Knight trilogy
What is your pick? To me there really aren't any I've seen that compare to the Dark Knight, or really stand out in any way.

I don't get why "other than the Dark Knight trilogy" was tacked on the end, but anyway...
I second Super. In my opinion it's much better than Kick Ass. |

Re: Best superhero movie other than the Dark Knight trilogy
Burton's Batman films, forget the other two from that series though.
Superman 1 & 2. I love the X-Men films though. |
Re: Best superhero movie other than the Dark Knight trilogy
Batman Begins is an amazing film, so it's a very high bar to set.
I did really love the first Iron Man, though since then it's gone rapidly downhill for me. |

The Incredibles

I third Super. Also Guardians of the Galaxy.

Re: Best superhero movie other than the Dark Knight trilogy
Watchmen is the ultimate superhero film. Although it's executed far from its typical style of genre... Funny, I once hated the film but rewatched it in Director's Cut a few years later. Now I see it as a masterpiece but one tha require patience and multiple viewings. Such an ambitious movie, can't believe it works as great as it does.

After Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy, it's go Marvel or go home. The Avengers and Captain America: The Winter Soldier are both 10/10 for me.

I think Super has strong acting overall, excellent cinematography, fantastic realism (which requires a lot of research and attention to detail), pulls off multiple genres (comedy/drama/action), and actually has some pretty potent meaningful content. For one thing I like it a lot, and I mean A LOT, when a violent movie, that puts it's main characters (which it's invested so much time in) into high risk situations, actually does allow them to die in a way that doesn't further the plot. When people die in real life it never furthers things, it just makes a big hole in everyone's life. And that's what should happen when someone dies. It should be meaningful, it should affect the audience, they should love that character and now be sad that they're gone. It should feel like the plot now has a hole, not a bridge. In honesty though I think the thing that holds the Dark Knight back the most is it's lack of nudity. |
Re: Best superhero movie other than the Dark Knight trilogy
Did I just kill this thread by being too serious?
Also, Watchmen is a better super hero movie because it has nudity. ;) |

Re: Best superhero movie other than the Dark Knight trilogy
Batman & Robin was the best Batman movie for sure.
http://oyster.ignimgs.com/wordpress/...and_robin.jpeg It's got the closest thing to nudity in a Batman movie. I mean hey, why do you think Blue Is the Warmest Color got all those awards huh? The criteria should be 1. Nudity (or "sex appeal"), 2. Epic One-liners, and 3. Special Effects. |

Re: Best superhero movie other than the Dark Knight trilogy
Okay, I've come to this conclusion. Movies based on graphic novels are the next closest thing to superhero movies. Therefore it stands!
Yes, logic! |
