Re: Fine like wine: how well have superhero films aged?
B89 hasn't aged too well. There are some aspects that have lasted (Nicholson, atmosphere, some fights), but others (supporting cast{characters}, plot holes, lack of development of the protagonist, nonsensical visuals). It's easily been eclipsed by Nolan's stronger films
Batman Returns: aged terribly! Ridiculous characters and back stories, along with a lot of plot holes.
Spiderman 1: too over the top with a lot of "REALLY" cheesy dialogue, plus the effects were really bad at times.
Superman 2: The Lester Cut. Pretty much started the awful stigma of "Comic book films shouldn't take themselves seriously". Donner cut is far superior.
