I'm thinking more like Akira. Maybe Nausicaa as well. 

Akira is definitely good shit, if you saw my list. Not a big fan of Nausicaa though. But if like 1/3 of your list is manga adaptions, where else will you find movies?

idk, that was an off-the-cuff answer, I know there's a bunch.

30 is a weird number and thus it troubles me. 

[baumer]

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

It was in my list, but I can see how it can be a polarizing movie to many.

Agreed, it troubles me how Watchmen is mentioned on a few lists.

I think it's fine. When you include movies from Japan they are very solid, so there's not much room to include Watchmen when other comic book movies from hollywood take that spot

Everyone knows you can't have 50 or 100 good comic book movies.

 

/s?

Wait for 7 years. You will have 50 or 100 movies easily

Well there are huge volumes of Detective Conan and One Piece movies that never really got a proper release in the USA. Maybe they should fill it out.

It’s cause everyone knows Watchmen peaks at its opening credits. 😉

I'm actually a huge CBM fan, and was surprised at how hard it was to fill the list with 30 movies I found really good. I mean, I wouldn't really think Thor: The Dark World would make it, but it was the only thing I could fill the last spot with.

 

Though I just remembered The Dark Knight Rises, which would have been above Thor 2. Also, I don't remember the original spider-man trilogy well enough to include any of them.

This is why my list's probably going to be in at 11:59:59PM on August 10.  The first 10 were locked.  Second 10 easy.  Last 10?  Gotta think about that.

Once Manga was added doing a Top 30 List b/c very easy and very hard because there are probably 10-20 more B+ movies CBM I could have added to my list.

Well I mean. It's not all top shelf ghibli, because lots of Miyazaki's best work is his own creation and not manga first.

 

I did hear someone say that The Wind Rises shouldn't count as a comic book movie though, I guess because it didn't feel like one. Or the source material was obscure.

 

I do heavily endorse Otomo's Akira, which has a lot of overlap with Ghibli in terms of artists.

Lol, as I do not watch animated (as told, I am 2d-sighted and animated is somehow wrong for me / my eyes), also am not a gamer....

I had not as much to pluck from.

A few titles other here named I have not even heard of... some I have to catch up to (a few discs are bought since some time, but the mood never struck)

Gamer? What does that have to do with this?
