Your Favorite Comic to Movie Adaptions

List your favorite comic to movie adaptions in order of preference, and why you like them so much.

4. Spiderman 2 - Spiderman 2 killed the original. I have my doubts about 3, but 2 was perfect. You know the characters, and remember the SH*TTY ending from the first one. From the get-go, the movie puts you through hell non-stop. They make Petey's life non-stop torture, but it's all worth it because the movie has the best ending of any super hero movie ever. Plus, they did justice to Doc Ock. It feels real, but it feels Marvel. Brilliance on celluoid.

3. Hellboy - I knew nothing about Hellboy going into this movie. I met Ron Pearlman in person, and that's the only thing that prompted me to go see this movie, because I thought he was a nice guy. Well, upon viewing, I found this movie to become one of my all-time favourites, ever. It's funny, sad, happy, miserable, and messy all in one big burrito. The characters are kickass, and any movie with a villian named Rasputin trying to unleash hell on earth has to be good. It rules, period.

2. Sin City - It's black and white, has more amputations than Kill Bill, and is drowning in blood, cannabilism, sex, murder, prostitutes, erotic dancing, rape, death, and crazy people with swords . Sounds like fun already. That, and it's also probobly the most accurate comic to movie translation of all time. Even more, most of the spoken lines were ripped stright from the pages of the comic. Let's not forget the the storyline is one of the most unique and genuinely entertaining to come along in eons.

1. Batman Begins - Technically, it's an adaption of a graphic novel, which itself was an adaption, which is retelling a classic story, attempting to right the wrongs done in the last film adaptions. Soooo....why dosen't it suck? I don't know, but to me it's one of the best movies ever made, period. It's unbelieveable how fun the movie is to watch. First of all, Batman is a fu*king ninja. Second, the characters are finally believeable enough that you can feel an attachment to them, and the world of gothom feels like it could be a real world place for the first time, while not loosing any of that magical comic book feel. To me, it's a perrfect movie. It's not a stright adaption, but it's a better one.
