Default Post your "TOP 5" Comic Book films

I want to take my rambling from the Thor thread a bit further and see where everyone stands these days. My top 5 comic book films are:

1) The Dark Knight
2) Sin City
3) Hell Boy
4) Batman Begins
5) X2

I think my list finds a nice balance between awesome cinematography (the Nolan films), fun (Hell Boy), true comic visuals in cinema (Sin City), and just good story and plot (X2).

This would be my go-to list, and I would never turn watching any of these movies down. Another thing is all of these movies have aged fairly well...unlike say, Spiderman.

So how would you rate your top 5 comic films?

Extra credit to anyone who mentions a comic book movie that has flown under the radar, is a graphic novel, or is a loose comic adaptation. I'm talking things like Spawn, The Crow, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen or things like that.

Very tough. I guess these for favorites in no particular order:

Batman
Men In Black
Hellboy II: The Golden Army
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Mystery Men

Sin City would be close too. Definitely the best straight adaptation I've seen.

Oh snap, I totally forgot about Mystery Men and Men In Black.

See! This thread is already full of win. I love both of those movies by the way.

Ooh, I forgot Ichi the Killer was a comic. Oldboy too. Not sure which ones on my list they would replace.

Been meaning to see A History of Violence and Road to Perdition but kept putting off seeing them thinking I would read the comics first.

There are too many...probably a ton that are based on a comic book and I don't even realize it.

Here goes though...

1. The Dark Knight
2. 300
3. Sin City
4. X-Men First Class
5. Hellboy II: The Golden Army

Thor and Iron Man are really close runners up.

This must be an easy thread for bots. They're doing a pretty good job of posting coherently!
