Movie Lists.  |  | MP3 It!

FilmSchoolRejects has just posted a great, and I think well overdue, Top 10 Comic Book Adaptation list. Here are number 1 and number 2 for you people who are loyal to us and decide to just make the rest of the list off it :) (just joked FSR, we love you :))

Personally I love the list and have always loved the lists FSR. Sin City is most deserving of there top spot, freaking great movie. Although I am unsure if 300 should be below Mystery Men as I found Mystery Men to be one of the worst movies of all time.

2. “Spider Man” series

By the time “Spider-Man” came out in 2002, the special effects had caught up to the vision of the comics. Instead of putting a director’s arrogant spin on an existing character, Sam Raimi worked to make an exciting movie that followed the source material as closely as it could. And when he changed anything, like making Spidey’s web fluid part of his mutation, it was actually for the better.

1. Sin City

Robert Rodriguez defied logic and the DGA to prove to the world that comic books can be adapted faithfully to film. Using Frank Miller’s graphic novels as storyboards for the film, Rodriguez made the market-standard for comic-book adaptations. “Sin City” is still one of the most unique, stylized and brilliant films of the decade.
