There's a long ass list dating back to Superman (1978). Which is your favorite comic book super hero adaptation? Could even be a sequel.

Conan the Barbarian. No doubt. Number 1 of all time.

Superman.

The evil scientist is voiced by Jack Mercer using his Popeye voice.

Clark really rocks that double breasted suit.

"Gimme some, wench, or I'll dump this molten gold all over you!"

King Tush.

man, such a sad story his life. He was also built like a HW boxer, but too fragile in his head and with an obsessive mother. Sad, he could have spent a good life and wrote so many amazing books.

I wouldn't say that Conan is a "Super Hero".

He's certainly a comic book character, so if we're using comics as the litmus, I would have to agree with most of you.

If we are saying actual "Super Hero", then I'm going to probably have to say The Avengers is the best "Super Hero" movie I've ever seen.

We are talking about a movie that had me, my 11 year old son, and my 6 year old daughter all completely enthralled with it from beginning to end.

It's very VERY difficult to make any movie that can do that to such varying age ranges.

I was scrolling down to make the exact first two points almost verbatim.

The Avengers was so much more than I expected it to be given some of the lead up films.

Yes, Terrence Stamp is the real Zod, not that tit they had playing him in the new one.

I hated that new movie - the teaser trailer and the full-length trailer they showed before it came out made it look cool as fuck but the movie itself sucked. CGI overload resulted in an assault on the senses and yes the new Zod was goddamn awful.
