Though I admire your enthusiasm, the only comic movie to have influence is X-Men as it showed Hollywood what they could be. -- nm - Spawn Apr 13, 10:21
No chance on Iron Man or Dark Knight. If if they influenced anything forward, comic movies are now built on the backs of SUperman 1, Batman 1, XMen - Will Hunting Apr 13, 10:15 4
- I think X-Men is probably the most influential for the current lot - celedhring Apr 13, 10:22 1
  - pokie -- nm - Spawn Apr 13, 10:26
- Yeah, I should have applied the same logic to superhero movies that I had applied to Pixar movies to get toy story - Beryllium Apr 13, 10:18 1
  - Burton and Schumacher's Batmans are different beasts from today's comic book films I think. - celedhring Apr 13, 10:24
Toy Story is a good choice. I wouldn't argue with that over Pulp. -- nm - Don Homer Apr 13, 10:13
Dark Knight? really? -- nm - znufrii Apr 13, 10:13 8
- It's still too soon to actually call it that, but yes. Really. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 13, 10:13 7
  - I hope it becomes influential. - celedhring Apr 13, 10:15 1
    - but that's why Bery mentioned Iron Man. :) -- nm - znufrii Apr 13, 10:16
  - I just can't see that happening. -- nm - znufrii Apr 13, 10:15 4
    - well, check back in five years, and see if it's had an influence on the superhero/scifi genres. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 13, 10:16 3
      - I just don't see how it was particularly ground-breaking in any sense, thus how any influence could be traced back to it, as opposed to other comic - znufrii Apr 13, 10:17 1
        
        It wasn't. It gets a 0 on the groundbreakingness scale. -- nm - Don Homer Apr 13, 10:18
      - No more than Spidey 1, Xmen 2 or Spidey 2. It's a well-made movie, but it's not a trendsetter. - Will Hunting Apr 13, 10:17
