The Batman under a movie like Tank Girl that was a giant mess? Black Panther with its awful 3rd act over Into the Spider verse and The Dark Knight?
This is an awful list.

Rolling Stones Top 50 Superhero Movies List
- Thread starter Star-Lord
- Start date
Since they decided to count Scott Pilgrim as a superhero movie, it is criminally low on the list. Under The Old Guard!? Get the fuck out of here.
I don't understand comments like this.
Like, not putting Black Panther at #1 on your own list is understandable. It wouldn't be on mine. Buy to act shocked when it's #1 on a list list this? Did you forget how acclaimed that film is, the fact that it was nominated for Best Picture and how important it is culturually on a worldwide scale?
Black Panther is and always will be remembered as one of the top superhero movies ever so it shouldn't be weird if a magazine puts it at #1.
I agree with the popular view here that Into the Spider-Verse should be #1. That's the closest one out of all of these to basically do everything beautifully. Almost all the others have at least one glaring, klaxon flaw but I'll be fucked if I can think of one for Spider-Verse. Except the name, maybe, it's pretty goofy.
There is a hell of a lot wrong with this list. How the hell Tank Girl, The Old Guard, and Ghost Rider made it onto this list baffles me.
There is no universe where you put both Robocop and Unbreakable on this list and not put those two at number 1 & 2.
Like what the fuck.

Yea just realised that too. NWH not being there but Homecoming being so high up is a wack ass choice.
At least Snydercut got some recognition.
Black Panther was an important movie, but it's not a particularly good one.
It doesn't make the Top 10 of the MCU for me, let alone #1 amongst all superhero flicks.

TDK not being in the Top 5, hell Top 3 is weird. But Spider-Man 2 is, so I'll allow the list.
My list is pretty simple.
1. Spider-Man 1 & 2.
2. Nolan Bat Trilogy.
3. Spiderverse.
And I don't really care about the rest. They can land wherever. Maybe Donner Superman gets fourth simply due to its achievement, but it's not really a set of films I religiously rewatch.

After their recent Greatest Rap Albums of All Times debacle, I wasn't expecting much from this list. It seems they gave more credents to their cultural impact rather than how good the actual movie was hench why Endgame would rate higher than Infinity War. We all know which was the better movie.
I know it's controversial but Watchmen (movie) should be in there somewhere. Maybe not top 10 but somewhere decent placed.

Watchman was a good movie stimied by the fact that it came out 5 years earlier than it should have. The public just wasn't primed for superhero films like that yet.
I will die on that hill.
Black Panther is mid-tier MCU at best, Logan was a way better film, Into The Spiderverse, should have been number one.
It also needed to not be directed by Snyder and be a HBO series as opposed to a movie. And no, I don't mean the series we got which I did not like.
Black Panther is good, but they siced it too much lmao
Spider-Man 2 & Spiderverse are both above it IMHO
EDIT: BP is mainly good for what it meant (culturally and for Marvel), so I can see it being high up for meaning. And in the same vein, I can see Endgame being more meaningful than Infinity War, etc.

You are not alone in that statement.
I'm not ashamed to tell people that it's my all time favourite Superhero movie. I love their reaction when I casually drop it in a conversation like this.
I love Black Panther but the final fight was wack
My top 10 would probably be:
1. Infinity War
2. Into the Spider-Verse
3. Captain America: The Winter Soldier
4. The Dark Knight
5. Spider-Man 2
6. Guardians of the Galaxy
7. The Batman
8. Thor Ragnarok
9. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
10. Captain America: Civil War

Black Panther is awesome for many things it represents or contains within it, but I don't think as an actual movie that it's anything special. Pretty standard hero origin film, IMO, with all of the things that come with that.
I wish like hell Chadwick had gotten to do another movie as main character, because there was so much room to grow.

Seriously. The worst DC film is better than the best MCU film.
Top Gun: Maverick should be #1. He's pretty much a super hero.
Spider-Man: Into The Spiderverse is the best superhero movie ever made and anyone who disagrees is just straight up wrong (in my opinion lmao) and honestly, Endgame isn't even the best Avengers movie. I'd choose Infinity War or even the first Avengers movie over Endgame almost any day of the week lol
I've been team Infinity War over Endgame since day one. Infinity War is just so much better, so much more entertaining and is such an outstanding movie from start to finish while Endgame primarily has the second half carrying the entire movie if we're being real
Yep. Not a bad film by any stretch but.....you get down to it pretty serviceable and not "great". Even in the top 2 dark knight gets shafted a little bit. I was ready to be pissed about Spiderman 2 but the creator knows what they're doing. Glad to see Incredibles high what a wonderful film. Besides the clickbait great top 10
Pretty boring list outside of Tank Girl and Infra-Man. Hellboy 2 and Batman are weird exclusions. Doctor Strange and Ant-man are way too high.
I would have liked to have seen more off-the-wall stuff on the list like Danger Diabolik, Toxic Avenger I/IV, Special or They Call Me Jeeg.

Even the second half is...questionable.
The villain is sapped of all the pathos and history that made him engaging if somewhat problematic.
The movie is an exercise in franchise inevitability, fan service, and auto-fellatio.
A good time, but not the top 10.
Black Panther is a movie with a stellar first half with a "mid" second half carried entirely by the high of the first.
