Batman Begins being a somewhat close second.

Fantastic 4 should be on there, too. Maybe not the best, but a damn good movie IMO

You'd probably like it better if they had the alternate ending:
SPOILERS!!!!
Marv and Hartigan don't die, the bad guys see the errors of their ways and turn themselves in to the proper authorities, but not before all the movie characters join hands, the film turns to colour (ala Wizard of Oz) and they all buy the world a Coke.
END SPOILERS!!!
Of course, that was when the movie was called Jolly Sunshine Happiness...

hmm - uh, no. . . the problem i had with Sin City was that it showed exactly how different the medium of the comic book is from a film and in attempting to translate a comic story into film with such fidelity the film actually failed to be either a good graphic novel or a good film. . . the noirish elements of the film were fine - the silly looking graphics of superheroish poses looked, to me at least, quite silly
but, as i said, this is MY OPINION

I'm with you all the way on that one! The only reason it was enjoyable was because it had Cillian Murphy, Michael Caine, and Morgan Freeman in it.

i agree - the only thing that stopped me from fully loving it was the deep desire for it to have been a film version of Dark Knight Returns - that would be epic!

gotta have the perfect Old Bruce, though. Someone who's old, but who could still kick someone's ass. I'd go with Eastwood or Brian Cox

for a long time i thought it should be michael keaton - but then i saw him in that awful White Noise and said, "uh, no" (as if i actually have casting control?!?)
but, the one good thing in Sin City (in my humble and deeply flawed opinion) was bruce willis - I think he could play older.
clint is great, but i can't see him behind the mask
brian cox is a god - but my sense of the DKR batman was that he was still somewhat in shape (BC would need some serious training).
Still, i would live to see the "superman gets his ass kicked" climax on-screen (if done right)
