Alternate Choices for Best Comic Movie


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

These days if you ask people to name the best comic book movie they've seen, you're likely to get one of two answers:

 

1) The Avengers

 

2) The Dark Knight

 

I'm wondering how many folks on here would name something other than one of those two as their top choice, or could at least name some alternate contenders.

The one with Jack Nicholson as the Joker

Jack Nicholson didn't play The Joker.  He put on white makeup and played himself (like he does in every movie, minus the makeup).

 

Heath Ledger played the Joker.

 

He played a great Joker for 198...whatever it was. The Joker is kind of Nicholson embodied.

 

Maybe you are too young to remember that this was a watershed movie ;)

Really difficult not to pick the Avengers regardless of the thread's stipulations. It totally changed the way superhero movies are now though of, both in development and by the public. It also rescued us from hoard after of hoard of "gritty, realistic" attempts at comic movies which is ultimately saving the genre.

That said, there are other great ones out there.

    • I came over from the old Panthers Insider site. When Fox Sports bought that platform it slowly just started dying plus the guy who ran that site was dealing with some pretty significant health issues so the whole thing just slowly fell apart. Quite a few of us migrated over here. Not sure how many are still around.  I miss that place. It struck a nice balance of having enough active posters to keep productive conversation flowing but didn't have so much traffic that you end up with a lot of trolling BS. This place is getting there though since we shutdown new registrations but at some point we're going to have to open it back up or we'll watch this place slowly die off too as posters fall off for one reason or another. We just have to figure out a way to filter out the spam bots. It was a never ending battle to ban the spam bots to keep then from overrunning the site. You'd think they'd be a little more strategic. I mean, if you fill a site with nothing but spam people are just going to stop coming so it's not a sustainable model.
    • lol...I don't remember that.  Although recalling what I had for breakfast yesterday is sometimes a challenge.  Hope it was a positive thing.
