The 20 Best Movies Adapted from Comic Books

Some good one in this list and I really like some of those movie (you see I can watch comic book movie :P). I will probably have to succumb to Iron Man if even Robin Bougie like it :laugh:

And the list made me remember that I've not get "Danger : Diabolik" yet, I will have to correct this soon

Ain't any good, he liked Iron Man but not (at least the first) X-Men.

It's because he isn't a mainstream movie watcher. Don't forget that we talk about the writer and publisher of Cinema Sewer

Yeah, that's a decent list, though I may have ordered them a little different. Also, not sure about all the Anime entries. I'm not questioning the quality, but comics are so much a part of Japanese culture now that the fact there are Animes of Mangas is a bit "well, duh".  :slaphead:

Look at it from the other side; all the entries for Western material are live action. Turning a comic into a decent live action film is hard for Hollywood to get right at the best of times while audiences would never go en masse to see an animated Iron Man, no matter how brilliant it was, because it would just be a "kid's cartoon". In other words, Japan's filmmakers have the experience, the attitude and the audience to do it right and do it well. He should have done another list for them.
