Comic Book Movies

[Dr. Ensatsu-ken]

Year One was slightly under and hour long. I guess the comic must have been short. It was still a good story, but I suppose I felt that there could have been more to it.

[Avaitor]

Yeah, I wouldn't add movies like Persepolis in here, for weird reasons. I was trying to stick to super hero stuff mostly, but Scott Pilgrim makes the cut since the movie just screams "comic book" in every regard.

[Dr. Insomniac]

But what makes the difference between superhero movies and regular films that happen to be adapted from comics?

[Avaitor]

Eh, I don't know, I just don't feel like ranking any non-super hero comics into this list. Probably because it'd take a lot longer to think of other movies I like that are based off of comics or graphic novels, and whether or not I should count manga.

1. Mask Of The Phantasm
2. Avengers
3. X2
4. The Dark Knight
5. 20th Century Boys / Captain America (Depends on what I'm looking for)

Still not big on Scott Pilgrim. Probably won't ever be.

Holy shit, I'm not alone in the world!

If it makes you feel any better, my friend was obsessed with it for a while.

And Lone Wolf And Cub would be #1.

EVERYONE at my high school was obsessed with it.

And everyone at my high school was obsessed with The Notebook.

That was middle school shit here.

[Dr. Ensatsu-ken]

I've only ever read the first 2 volumes of the comic for Scott Pilgrim. I thought it was pretty good.

[Spark Of Spirit]

Oh wait, would TMNT count?

Because if so, I still really like the first movie.

[Avaitor]

I still don't understand how anyone who enjoys video games, comics and nerd culture in general can't love Scott Pilgrim. It's one of the few pieces of work where pop culture references make the whole thing, and don't detract from anything.
