Well, what better way to kick off superhero week than to have an announcement of who will play Superman in the new movie that I have high hopes for. I will have more about Superman on day 4. And now, on with the lists.

Top 5 Worst Superhero Movies

Supergirl – The only good things about this movie are the fact that it stars Helen Slater and Mark McClure. Everything else is completely horrible. From the bad guy who’s main devious goal is to date a gardener to Supergirl watching the entire town get trashed before she changes costumes and sort of saves the day, this movie will leave you scratching your head.

Superman Returns – For a more complete list of grievances go here. For the short list, I will say that I hate that Superman is a dead beat dad in this movie and I am not a fan of the inconsistencies in his powers, which is a problem most of the time.

Batman and Robin – Horrible writing, terrible acting and the fact that they used every bad guy they had in their stable. Those are pretty much the crux of all it’s problems.

Spiderman 3 – Just watch this:

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen – This is the movie that put Sean Connery out of the acting business(with the exception of one toothpaste commercial)

Daredevil – I’ve already over-explained this one.

Heroes(TV Series) – Seriously Peter could have flown himself into the sky to blow up and didn’t need his brother to do it. I enjoyed most of the first season of this but it really fell apart at the end of that season and the start of season two was looking just as bad so I quit on it. It was a very rapid fall for something that could have been pretty cool.

Top 5 Most Ridiculously Ultra-Powered Superheroes

Doctor Manhattan – More poor writing surrounds this character from the Watchmen. He perceives the past, present and future as one but is still subject to space. Every nerd knows that time and space cannot be separated.

Phoenix – Another character that is so powerful that it just makes it no fun and makes it unbelievable that anyone could beat her.

Superman/Supergirl/Superboy – Most people are very unaware of the fact that Superman originally could not fly and had lesser powers. He could lift heavy objects and run fast and jump high but he was not near as powerful as he is now. The way he is now makes it pretty unbelievable that he could ever be defeated. Even if somebody had kryptonite he could stand back and heat-vision their faces off.

Top 5 Best Superheroes

Superman – With the aforementioned problems Superman is still the best out there.
Beast – I just like him OK.
The Tick – Indestructible and hilarious.
Batman – Ingenuity and a go-getter attitude.
Iron Man – ditto
