Favourite Comic Book Movie Of Each Year?

[jolldan]

Some of you have likely been watching comic book movies a lot longer than me back to the Christopher Reeve Superman days so I thought would make for a cool list to see what everyone's favourite of each year was from when you started watching them until now (I know there will probably be quite a few years that likely had no comic book films but just fill it in as best you can)

Here's my list.

1989: Batman
1990: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
1991: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II
1992: Batman Returns
1993: Batman: The Mask of the Phantasm

2002: Spider-Man
2003: X2: X-Men United
2004: Spider-Man 2
2005: Batman Begins
2006: 300 (Technically was released in 2007 but everywhere you look lists it as a 2006 film so I'm putting it here since it's a better option than X-Men: The Last Stand or Superman Returns )
2007: Spider-Man 3
2008: The Dark Knight
2009: Watchmen
2010: Kick-Ass
