UPDATE: November 2015
Since I originally posted these rankings, another FANTASTIC FOUR movie was unfortunately released in 2015. I don’t know how many times I can say this… this franchise is D.O.A. It offered absolutely no entertainment value nor any reason to care about these characters. Enough is enough. Period!!! The only way FANTASTIC FOUR can be revived is if Quentin Tarantino or J.J. Abrams directs the next reboot. Please boycott all sequels and attempts to waste our time, unless one of these directors is in charge. Period!!!
I recently saw MAN OF STEEL and felt it was time to update my rankings for superhero movies based on comic books.
MAN OF STEEL Official Teaser Trailer #1
