i would have to say the x-men.


why?:

- bryan singer
-famkee
-mckellen
-cumming
-hugh underrated as hell jackman
-p. stweart
-uncle jesse's wife
more characters that are badass..and not just focusing one one(i.e. blade, punisher, hulk)
-no stupid pop songs..by pseudo-rock-angst bands(i.e. spider man"hero")
-other

what could possibly be a better comic book series turned into films than this..?.....
if there is already a topic/thread on this..please insult me then redirect me
thanks...

I was actually watching X2 yesterday again because I bought the DVD and was thinking the same thing... they did a great job not only adapting the comic but also making a sequel... and I think they'll do a good job again on the 3rd one...

SpiderMan was very good also...

Hulk sucked

El Duderino

does American Splendor count? if so, then that.

if not, then X-Men.
Did I just get cock-blocked by Bob Saget?

Banky

x2 is the best film and most seem to agree

spiderman was entertaining but did not match x2 in quality

Hulk had potential but the 3rd act completley blew donkey balls

I really want to see Hellboy though

x3 better have gambit

So far I'd say:

1) X2
2) Ghost World
3) X-Men
4) Hellboy

I've yet to see American Splendor. It's on my Que.
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free, silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands, with all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves, let me forget about today until tomorrow.

American Splendor was too cute; it played down the guy's anger and just made him neurotic in a Woody Allen-esque way.  It even gave him a struggle against cancer and an adopted daughter to cap it all off.  It watered him down the same way Letterman or MTV did, just to a lesser extent.

Right, he's surprised because it's a really good movie.

Anyway, the WORST film from a comic book is Howard the Duck.

Have you ever seen Dolph Lungren's 'The Punisher' or 'Captain America?'

They not only take the cake, they run off and marry it.
