First Iron Man was revolutionary. The first true comic book movie. A great start to the franchise. It only falls in the rankings by being so old. Everything Irom Man did has been redone and improved upon many times.

Iron Man 2 was weak and disappointing.

Iron Man 3 was a goddam travesty.

Spider-Man came out in 2002- 6 years before Iron Man.

Spider-Man 2- one of the best superhero movies- came out in 2004- 4 years before Iron Man.

Those movies were just as comic booky and better movies than Iron Man.

I think Bryan Singer (spit, phtooey, pox, pox) has to be acknowledged for making the genre viable with X-Men, but Sam Raimi needs to be credited with making the first real comic book movie.

generally, not a fan. There's a slow churn in my head that pits occasional good lines "Built it in a cave, with a box of scraps!" vs total physics model violations, and character inconsistencies. Not enough good lines.

The whole franchise is losing me the way comic books lost me: The parallel universe thing means, there's no peril, no humanity. At least on Rick and Morty they face it. Oh, the things I would do if I knew I couldn't die, or thought I couldn't (#Wolverine is reckless). Now that nobody really dies, ho hum.


The first attempt at a comic book palette that I can recall was the eminently forgettable "Dick Tracy" Warren Beatty, et al. My low expectations have been consistently validated.
