Helen Slater was the only thing worth seeing in the movie Supergirl. The movie was SO bad though.
Rent this movie and do your best not to laugh at just how dumb it is. I heard someone bought Helen Slater's Supergirl costume on ebay for $13,000USD!

I cringe to think what he did with it. Eww.
Here are my picks:
Worst - Batman and Robin
Most Inaccurate - Hulk
Generally bad - Supergirl, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Fantastic 4 (both versions)
And while I hate Joel Schumacher with a passion (I boycott his movies.), Batman Forever, campiness and said director aside, is actually a decent representation of the Batman comics.
I also dug Daredevil. Both versions, but the Director's cut way more.

Okay here goes:
Loved Dardevil, I have both cuts, and I think both have flaws(like any time Colin Farrel is doing that annoying thing where he's, you know, onscreen). Bullseye was reinvented for the film, and it didn't work. Didn't mind Afleck(and I was cheering for him to die in Pearl Harbor). I also thought the Priest was better in the theatrical cut, but other than that the directors cut of the movie was awesome. And if possible, I will make it to the grave without seeing any version of Elektra. Or Catwoman.
Superman 3/4, Supergirl, Batman 3/4(and I cheered when I found out that Katie Holmes was invited not to appear in the Batman Begins sequels, which stamps out the only problem from that franchise)
Oddly enough I liked Turtles 2, but none of the others
Steered clear of Fan Four(Jessica Alba was perfect as Max, but there is no way she should have been cast as Sue Storm)
The XMen films are a mixed bag. The first one was weak, the second fairly good, and the third pretty much a series of missed opportunities strung together. But all of them failed my standard XMen litmus test - Cyclops was writen as a boyband wannabe. Cyke is the hardest character to write in the X-Verse, and Singer was not up to the challenge(though Joss seems to be so far). And he was also miscast. Instead of the whiner, they should have gone with Michael Biehen(Sarah Connor's protector in The Terminator, Johnny Ringo in Tombstone). He actually would have had the presence to not be bowled over by Hugh Jackman. And he would have been the right age for Famke Jannsen... which leads into how badly handled the Phoenix Saga was mangled in X3 and so on.
The Tomb Raider movies... nuff said.
I’m never serious. Serious means something bad is about to happen.

Daredevil was a pretty good film. I read the comic Daredevil a lot as a child because I like the idea of a blind superhero. I liked the movie version of him a lot better. In the comics he was just too much like Spiderman.
I can't find very many people who liked the movie Daredevil. There were things in the movie I also didn't like. Kingpin. Kingpin in the comics was bigger than the guy they had in the movie and he was meaner, and stronger. Also, that bald guy running around throwing darts and everything else at people? He was just annoying, but overall, I liked the movie world of DD. It was dark, and in a poor section of town, and DD was a torn, dark person.
I would have to say that Ben Affleck did a fine job. He was the only good thing about the whole movie. A lot of people didn't give the movie a chance because they don't like Ben Affleck.
It's really hard for me to completely hate any movie because in a really bad movie, there are some things that are good about it example: Catwoman.
Catwoman was a good movie if you changed the story a little. And if you also changed the costume that she wore, and changed the villain she was supposed to fight then it would have worked. Halle Barry's acting was pretty much okay, but she's no Michelle Pfeiffer, and to this day I would have to say that Michelle was the best Catwoman ever.
Everyone disagrees with me on this, but I still think that George Clooney made a good Bruce Wayne, but not a good Batman.
I saw a strange movie this weekend. I can’t remember the name it was so bad. I was stomping around inside of a mall and I saw a movie theater and just walked into it without seeing what was playing. I do this sort of thing a lot. It was a movie with Jack black in it, and it was the poorest movie I have ever seen in all of my life! What was their budget $2,000? But I did manage to find one good thing about the movie…the nun that came to Jack’s orphanage. She was a ray of sunshine. That nun made up for the whole movie.
Fantastic Four was a very forgettable movie. I guess the only thing that was good about the whole show was Sue Storm, The Thing, and Dr. Doom. Every thing else was a waste. I’m glad they didn’t make Sue Storm the whimpering maiden in distress type like she was in the comics. The Sue Storm of the movie was a strong character as she should be.
Even the worst of films yield one or two things that was good.

I'm surprised she did it (must have taken a whole day to shoot her scenes).
Hate weak female characters Chrisisall
I love Sin City but what bothered me the most was how in promotion, it was all about Alba. Nancy Callahan wasn't even that intriguing to me besides her relationship with Hartigan. Every other girl in that movie did so well(even Brittany Murphy as Shellie and I don't even care for her that much) but it was all about Nancy.
I guess what gripes me the most about it was about how underappreciated Rosario Dawson was as Gail. Gail was so much sexier and so much more badass than Nancy ever was and it just got tossed aside by the masses.

I didn't know there was a directors cut floating about out there! Have to go get it!!!!

For me...any superhero film I have actually seeen, I have found something I liked about it...even if it was the sheer hilarity of how bad it was
I think part of the big issue is that you can do a whole lot more visually with comics in some ways than you can do successfully with movies. Probably something to do with your brain augmenting the work done by the artists and writers....
But...if I had to choose a superhero film I had the most problems with...probably go with the first Captain America film. Didn't think it utter evil, but a lot of things were just shite
And I personally liked Daredevil...mainly cuz until Batman Begins, you never really saw Bruce Wayne/Batman dealing with injuries sustained from fighting crime...and Superman's pretty much perfectly coiffed until kryptonite's pulled out in the Superman movies. With Daredevil, at least Affleck pulled off looking like he had been put through a meat tenderizer feet first (though I thought he wasn't bad as the Man Without Fear...though not perfect in any light).

My friend pointed these out to me, an obvious list of things wrong in X-Men 3.
-Marrow is supposed to be a short, red-haired girl that has anger management problems, now it's some buff guy with bones that grow out of his wrists
-Quiksilver got turned into a girl
-Havik got replaced with Arclite
-Toad II is in it for two seconds and dies
-Cyclops is EMO
-The Phoenix wasn't wearing any green
-Spike is supposed to be Storm's nephew, in the movie he's some Asian dude
-Kitty isn't tall enough, and looks like a future super-pedo
-Juggernaut sounds really stupid
-Leech isn't some kid in the Ghetto in this
-Lack of Jubilee and fireworks
-No Gambit
-Psylocke doesn't do anything
-Forge should've been in it

I'll tackle these one at a time:
Quote:
-Marrow is supposed to be a short, red-haired girl that has anger management problems, now it's some buff guy with bones that grow out of his wrists
That was originally intended to be Omega Red, as that actor was originally creditted as such, but it was decided to change it about half way through production. So it was sort of a hybrid of the two, which is good because now we can still see both.
Quote:
-Quiksilver got turned into a girl
If you are referring to the leader of the Morlocks, Callisto, yoyu're mistaken. Callisto was a character in the comics and Quicksilver was Magneto's son. Plus, he was not the only character that was fast.
Quote:
-Havik got replaced with Arclite
Havok was Scott's brother and it was never mentioned he had family, plus Havok was a good guy. Arclite's power was different enough that she was independant.
Quote:
-Toad II is in it for two seconds and dies
This was to demonstrate that mutant powers do repeat, there was another mutant that teleported like Nightcrawler.
Quote:
-Cyclops is EMO
He was in mourning, he was far from EMO.
Quote:
-The Phoenix wasn't wearing any green
Whoopty do. None of the X-Men are wearing any of their colors, it happens. Plus, Phoenix wore Red for a time too.
Quote:
-Spike is supposed to be Storm's nephew, in the movie he's some Asian dude
The character was Quill, again, mutant powers can repeat.
Quote:
-Kitty isn't tall enough, and looks like a future super-pedo
She's not tall enough? If you are going to get hung up on height you ar eway too picky. Let's not forget that that is also the third actress to play Kitty in the movies.
Quote:
-Juggernaut sounds really stupid
I can't argue with this one. Juggernaut was supposed to be Xavier's half-brother. They threw that out the window.
Quote:
-Leech isn't some kid in the Ghetto in this
It was the only way to make the 'cure' work into the plot.
Quote:
-Lack of Jubilee and fireworks
Let's concentrate on the important characters ...
Quote:
-No Gambit
... like Gambit. Amen brother.
Quote:
-Psylocke doesn't do anything
Agreed
Quote:
-Forge should've been in it
Along with many others
