Title: Wednesday's Best Comic Book/Graphic Novel Movie SMACK-OFF!!!!
Post by: Stevesie60 on July 30, 2014, 01:30:14 PM
Kick-Ass gets my vote, and Sin City is really just there for people who haven't seen Kick-Ass. It has it all.

- Awesome action sequences from beginning to end
- Comedy
- Great soundtrack
- Nic Cage
- A girl who says lots of cuss words and kills lots of people in awesome ways
- A rocket launcher
- A guy in a microwave
- Nic Cage
- Outstanding directing
- Nic Cage

Are you implying that you CAN suspend belief for things such as getting powers from a radoactive spider?

Is this supposed to be the best interpretation of a Comic Book? The best comic bookish type movie? Or just the best all around movie that happens to have been based on or has a comic book for source material?

We all know that The Dark Knight is the best all around movie that has been mentioned so far.

Or him actually buying a drink for the person who guessed he was at Dirty Dawg's.

"Welp Daris, I think I'll be having a vodka soda" - winner
"Son of a bitch, I left my card at Mae's last night. Could you actually buy my drink?" - Rick Daris

I haven't purchased a comic book in the better part of two decades. Bought a couple Guardians of the Galaxy digital copies after watching the movie last night.

This is a thread for the best comic-based movie. Simply being good puts it right up near the top 5. This movie is better than good, though. It's great.

Then there are also the Alien movies, Galaxy Quest, Moon, Total Recall, and probably others I'm not thinking of. Lots of competition.
