Isn't Ghost in the Shell and a few others also considered a gamer movie?

Uh. Not really? I don't think of them as associated with video games more than MCU movies.

 

In fact I associate Spider-Man with video games more than any other comic book character.

I guess you are way younger than me then 😉

 

Spider-Man and me are of rather similar age, I knew the character since long before the first game I'd call video game was made possible per technological advancements. Even if including the arcade things.... (forgot the term)

No, it's a sci-fi detective thriller based on a manga where the lead is a once human/ now cyborg

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_in_the_Shell_(1995_film)

 

Ahh, thx a lot! 😉

 

I heard people speak here about it only in connection with something like browser based games and another version I think, not sure??? Not really important to me, as not for me.

 

I knew only about the live action version as no animated movies / tv-series for me (smilies work, animated movies.... makes me feel queasy and more, see being 2d-sighted might be the reason for that)

Finally finished my list up. Not going to lie, it was incredibly easy to come up with a list of 50 comic book movies that I love, but it was also like pulling goddamn nails to actually try and get them in any kind of ranking/order. Had to make some hard cuts on this one to trim it down to 30.

 

Also, I was surprised to realise that more than half of my Top 30 weren't Marvel/DC movies (barely). Turns out I'm not quite as much of a superhero shill as I initially thought I was.

 

Also also, I was not joking when I said I was going to stan the hell out of Speed Racer for this.

 

Anyway, here's my list.  

 

  1. Speed Racer
  2. The Avengers
  3. Into the Spiderverse
  4. Ghost in the Shell
  5. The Dark Knight
  6. In this Corner of the World
  7. Avengers: Endgame
  8. Avengers: Infinity War
  9. The Death of Stalin
  10. Captain America: The Winter Soldier
  11. A Silent Voice
  12. Miss Hokusai
  13. Wonder Woman
  14. Black Panther
  15. Batman Begins
  16. Men in Black
  17. Civil War
  18. Guardians of the Galaxy
  19. Thor Ragnarok
  20. Sin City
  21. Hellboy 2
  22. Castle of Cagliostro
  23. X-Men Days of Future Past
  24. Deadpool
  25. Kingsman
  26. Persepolis
  27. Whisper of the Heart
  28. Snowpiercer
  29. Dredd
  30. The Twelve Tasks of Asterix

 

Is in this corner of the world a comic book based? If so, wow, I found another one to be included in the list.

 

Such a underrated anime

Yup. It's an adaptation of a manga.

Kiki's Delivery Service is NOT eligible though.

Well I have seen all the big modern superhero films, so I figured that this list is an opportunity to catch up on the older ones. 

 

My first try is with the 78 Superman. All I got from it is an understanding of just how much better the genre has become, because this film is bad. Luthor's plan to get to the nuclear missile is more fitting for stealing a regular car. Lois Lane is a combination of Stupidity, incompetence and horrible shrieking. Man Of Steel is much better in every way.

A week until the deadline!

 

Remember, I need the list pm’d to me.  If it’s just sitting in the thread there’s a good chance I end up missing it

Kiki's Delivery Service is NOT eligible though.

I will include then replace it with The wind rises, as that film is eligible.

 

Still thinking whether or not to kick Dr strange and TDKR out of the list. 

 

Also, I never got tired to point out how awful of Thor Ragnarok is, that is one of the ridiculous things i ever seen in MCU universe, a comical approach used to illustrate the tragic eventsssss in a very insensitive way, it is not even tragicomedy like little miss sunshine or Life is beautiful or Amelie, It is an straight out comedy filled with off-tangent joke. 

 

Thor lost his father, he lost his eyes, lost his mjolnir, lost his Asgard, lost his entire army to his sister, freaking bump into Thanos to the earth and about to lose his people and brother, what is so funny about all these?  

Too bad many regard highly on this film. This is even worse than thor 2, MCU fans who love this film, you are just build your happiness on Thor's pain.

 

When thor met his mother again in Endgame, that scenes further reinforce my hatred on Thor 3.

Nah, that single scene of Clark Kent not saving Jonathan Kent in MoS was easily 10x more stupid, horrible, incompetent, unfitting than all those were said in SuperMan 1978 combined.

Continuing to catch up, Batman (1989) is a good one and much better than Superman. Unfortunately, there are only 30 spots on the list, and a lot of good Comic Book films, so this will have to miss the list.

It troubles me how Watchmen is mentioned on very few lists.

It snuck onto my #30 spot after I learned Edge of Tomorrow didn’t qualify.

 

Good movie but I absolutely love the graphic novel.
