Is it the realistic ones, the Michael Bay ones or the ones that stay 99% true to it's source material? Because it's sure as hell not the Spiderman movies, everybody seem to hate those. Which films are the best ones?
We all have a different kind of superhero-"taste". I like the ones that are somewhat realistic, like Batman and Iron Man (maybe not realistic 2012, but the year 3000 realistic, maybe). The Batman movies are nowadays heavily focused on the drama, family values, character devolopement and action. The Iron Man films focuses pretty much on that extraordinary charming dude who's really smart and defeats bad guys in a really expensive metal-suit. You know, a superhero. But my observation is that one particular ingrediens is often frowned upon in superhero-movies : humour. I'm thinking of the Michael Bay Transformers movies, with the slapstick and oneliners and metal balls. Or Spiderman, he's always been a witty dude, but everytime a new Spiderman movie gets released it gets spat on because this and that - and that : "he's childish".
What do we want and what makes the superhero movies good? And what makes the bad ones bad?
