This 100%.

Re: Best animated super heroes shows and movies.

I don't have a very specific order for them all, just a general idea. 
Something like this. 
My favorite is between Iron Man, the Dark Knight, or The Avengers. 
Captain America 2, X-Men, Spider-man 2, Thor and the Fantastic Four are next.
The Amazing Spider-man 2, Batman Begins, Iron Man 3, The Wolverine, and X2 are the rest of my favorites. 

Really, I don't hate any superhero movies (besides maybe Green Lantern and Iron Man 2, which I actually dislike).  I tend to like almost every movie that I choose to see, because if I'll probably hate it I usually don't watch it.  The only movies I really hate are Green Lantern, The Hunger Games (that I can think of at this moment).

Edit: wow, so much for a nice easy-to-read top ten list

Re: Best animated super heroes shows and movies.

none of them

edit: cartoonkids post is really good and i agree

10) X2

I actually love superhero movies, which is why I'm afraid they're going to wear everyone out at the cinema. It's inevitable but deeply saddening that one day the masses will be fed up of superhero movies, but it's Hollywood's own fault for over-exploiting them. Still, at least the MCU movies are as consistently incredible as they are - I'm sure Guardians of the Galaxy and Age of Ultron will be no exception.

For the record, I think both Fantastic Four movies are terrible.

After writing this list, I'm not actually sure how much I agree with it after all...

Kick-Ass
The Incredibles

Re: Best animated super heroes shows and movies.

Um...I'll see what I can come up with. But it probably won't be ten.

1. Batman: The Movie
This is the funniest movie ever made, and anyone who says otherwise is dumb.

2. Robocop
SHUT UP! IT COUNTS! HE'S IN A ZARKING ROBOT-SUIT! HE'S A SUPERHERO!

3. The Incredibles
Its funny that after we have this subtle parody of superheroes, and we see such a unique take on them....we're still swamped with bland superhero movies.

4. Superman 2
Superman is as dull as ever, but I love this film simply because it has General Zod. Any scene with him in it is just gold.

5. Batman 1989
Its weird that despite Tim Burton not 'getting' Batman at all, he made a film that 'got' Batman perfectly. Oh, Batman Returns sucks. But this...somehow works.

Maybe its because this film helped inspire The Animated Series - which I really like.

6. The DC Villans Movie
I didn't like The Avengers because I had literally no idea who the villans were (I don't think even the characters in the movie knew) and the superheroes were all ridiculously overpowered. There was no reason for them to team-up when just one of these characters could take on whoever the hell they were fighting.

So thank Christ that instead of lazily re-hashing The Avengers and having all the dull DC people meet, or arranging for a pointless conflict between two superheroes who have no reason to fight each-other and both have the personality of a black rock with a sad-face drawn on it - they instead went for a much edgier, unique movie. Because the DC universe has the best villans. The Joker, General Zod, Catwoman, Lex Luthor, Two-Face - the list goes on. All these personalites are interesting, and they all work great off-of each-other.

The film is also really morally ambigious, as none of these characters are 'good', but quite a lot of them aren't 'bad' either. Its really interesting watching these people all fight each-other and the world spirals into conflict until inevitably Batman and Superman come along to put a stop to all this. But its not an 'AMERICA F**K YEAH' moment when the two heroes beat everyone up. Its actually quite brutal, and you wonder if Batman and Superman are really heroic in their actions as they're both from the ruling class whilst the villans have been pushed to the edge of society. Is it their fault, or societies fault that they even exist?

OH WAIT! THIS MOVIE DOESN'T EXIST! WHY DOESN'T IT EXIST, HOLLYWOOD?!

I'll put V For Vendetta as a runner-up, because I have a love/hate relationship with it. I loved the graphic novel back when I was a Marxist teenager who didn't actually know what Marxist meant - and as an adult I still appreciate its artistry and political themes. The film, predictably, completely misses the point of the novel because Hollywood.

This being said, some of the profoundness of the source material shines through, and the cast is amazing. This could have been a great movie, but its not. Nevertheless, I can still appreciate something for what it could be rather than for what it is. I think thats why I'm so fascinated by Doctor Who...

it a joke

Also The Incredibles and Spiderman 2. The Dark Knight is also pretty great even if the editing is a bit weird at times.

also The Wonderful 101 is objectively best superhero game ever made

Yep.

Re: Best animated super heroes shows and movies.

My bottom ten would be X-Men Origins, X-Men First Class, Man Of Steel, Captain Ameruca, Batman, Batman Returns,
The Wolverine, X-Men, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, The Incredible Hulk

Re: Best animated super heroes shows and movies.

Well in no chronological order again, here's my bottom 10 (this list does change quite frequently tho...)

Batman & Robin
Superman 4: The Quest For Peace
The Amazing Spider-Man 2
X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
Steel
Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance
Hulk
Daredevil
Captain America (1990)

Re: Best animated super heroes shows and movies.

It's kind of strange trying to rank movies, but I really like all these, and I've tried to put them in order:

  1. The Dark Knight

  2. Hellboy

  3. The Avengers

  4. Hellboy II: The Golden Army

  5. Chronicle

  6. Spider-Man

  7. Batman Begins

  8. Spider-Man 2

  9. X-Men: First Class

  10. Captain America: The Winter Soldier

I lol'd at this.

Anywho, here goes my top ten:

1. The Dark Knight
2. X-Men: Days of Future Past
3. Captain America: The Winter Soldier
4. The Incredibles
5. Spider-man 2
6. Batman Begins
7. X-Men: First Class
8. The Avengers
9. Spider-man
10. The Dark Knight Rises

I have a weak spot for Batman and Robin. Yes, I realize the movie's abominable, cheesy, campy, etc., but I grew up watching it, so I am kind of partial towards it (Even if it means it's so-bad-it's-good).

I also happened to really enjoy Man of Steel as well. Sure, the story was all over the place and the dialogue was bland, but it did seem to tell a pretty good story (Plus we finally got to see Superman really kick some a$$ in this film).

Re: Best animated super heroes shows and movies.

In no order:  Superman 2, Ghost Rider (I'm probably the only one who will have this on their list), Spiderman 1 and 2, Captain America 1, Batman 1989 and Batman 2, and if there is an X-Men movie in the list, it has to be First Class.  I'm not counting animated special DVDs as movies, or more of them would be replacing others on the list.  Oh, and this is  TOP 9 LIST.
