Sin City for sure

cheebacheeba 01-16-2010 05:36 PM

Sin City.
IMO the best comic adaptation there's been...I can see this one making the top if the current batman fascination doesn't turn the tide.
I honestly don't see the other two getting any votes this round, looks like it's too late anyways.

8-0-0, Sin City runs through the other two and scores a big double shutout.

The Crow
It gets death rites alone....anybody remember how stunning this movie was when it first hit the theaters?
Alot of groundbreaking work went into it considering the title character had only a little workable screen time before he died.
This movie was also profound because the comic was based on a true story.

Kind of, loosely, symbolically.

I'll go with the Crow too, if only that aside from a few minor dialogue issues it stayed relatively faithful to the source material.

Yeh I do. I get kinda a homesick buzz from watching shit like that and miss my younger days.

Punisher War Zone was the best of the Punisher movies.

bwind22 01-17-2010 08:15 AM

hellboy 2 was good,but i gotta show x-men some love here

x-men

The_Return 01-17-2010 08:47 AM

X-Men! No questions asked, one of all-time greatest superhero flicks.

As much as I loved Hellboy II, it just can't match up to X-Men.

Yeah it can, watch.
Hellboy 2.
(That said I really liked x-men but don't feel like it really hit it's stride until X-men 2, I mean what the hell did they do to Sabretooth...?)

Zero 01-17-2010 10:04 AM

the first ten minutes of xmen was great - the rest a bit disappointing.

hellboy II

friday13thfan 01-17-2010 05:07 PM

X-Men

I found HB 2 to be extremely lacking.

Doc Faustus 01-17-2010 05:36 PM

Hellboy 2. In spite of its good performances, X Men didn't show much respect for source material. There were attempts at enhancement that fell flat.
