Batman Beyond: Year One
The Crow

Hellboy: The Crooked Man
Kraven the Hunter
Madame Web
Venom: The Last Dance

I bolded my choice.

Deadpool & Wolverine was the only one I’ve seen. It was fun enough even if it made no sense. I’ll probably watch Joker 2 tonight but I doubt it will change my mind.

 

[Flint Marko]

It’s Deadpool and Wolverine. This is also the worst year for comic book movies in a long time

 

[Luigi]

From the ones that I've seen:

Hellboy: The Crooked Man
Madame Web
Deadpool & Wolverine







The Crow

 

[Luigi]

What a year.

Last year was pretty bad, too, for comic book movies.

 

[Gothamsknight]

Deadpool & Wolverine. Terrible year for comic book films though. I just watched Joker 2 on Max last night and I want my money back even though I didn't even pay.

I haven't bothered watching Joker 2 yet, but I've watched the Pitch Meeting on YouTube, so I feel like I know what happens in the movie.

 

[Drizzle]

Deadpool & Wolverine. Really not a tough decision.

Worst than 2020 (Birds of Prey/The New Mutants/WW84).

 

[Mandon Knight]

D & W was mine. Loved it.

Is this a serious thread?

Last year was dreadful for comic book movies. Deadpool & Wolverine was the best one (which wouldn't mean anything in a good year), but I got more joy out of Madame Web

 

[psylockolussus]

Is this a serious thread?

Yes and we had a lot of cb movies last year especially from Sony Pictures.

You know, 2024 was really all about television as far as superhero content goes. None of the movies stuck out (positively), but The Penguin, Agatha All Along, X-Men '97, The Boys, and Batman: Caped Crusader were all very good.

Deadpool & Wolverine. An easy win.

Last year was pretty bad, too, for comic book movies.

2023 had Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, which was so great it made up for the entire year.

 

[The Joker]

Deadpool and Wolverine.

The competition wasn't exactly stiff last year. It would be a tougher choice deciding the worst one.

 

[Drizzle]

2023 had Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, which was so great it made up for the entire year.

2023 was a mixed bag with some high highs and low lows.

Across the Spider-Verse and Guardians 3 were great, TMNT: Mutant Mayhem was good, Blue Beetle and The Marvels were okay, Aquaman 2 and Shazam 2 were meh and The Flash and Quantumania were bad.

When there is at least one high high, then it's been a great year for comic book movies for me.

If I have to rank the years in this decade so far when it comes to cbms

1. 2021 (Spider-Man, Black Widow, Shang-Chi, Suicide Squad, Eternals, Venom)
2. 2022 (Black Panther, Dr. Strange, Batman, Thor, Black Adam, Morbius)
3. 2023 (Guardians, Spider-Man, Marvels, Blue Beetle, Flash, Shazam, Ant-Man, Aquaman)
4. 2024 (Deadpool & Wolverine, Venom, Madame Web, Joker, Kraven)
5. 2020 (Birds of Prey, Wonder Woman, New Mutants)

I'd agree with this.

 

[psylockolussus]

2024 had more bad movies than 2020, but I just can't ignore the thrill when I watched Deadpool & Wolverine. Birds of Prey is fine but its not as fun as D&W. Also not having the option to watch New Mutants/WW84 in a cinema, also damper things more for me when I look back. Before the pandemic, I have seen almost every Marvel/DC live action movie in the cinema since 2012.

2025 is off to a bad start, but as long as Thunderbolts, Superman and Fantastic 4 are okay at best - it can't be as bad as 2024/2020. The lack of Sony films this year is a good thing. This year just needs two of those three upcoming films to be great, and I'd rank 2025 higher than 2021.

I do truly believe that we're getting the worst out of the way first with Brave New World, even though I thought it was more forgettable than outright bad in the way that Quantumania was.

I have them in my bottom 2 mcu films. Brave New World is the better one.

I'm not sure yet if there are other comic book films this year aside from Marvel and DC.
