Default Rank Spidermans vs. X-mens

Let's face it, these two franchises will always be held up against each other. Still waiting on Spidey 3 (be sure to check out the new teaser if you haven't already), so it will still be some time before we can decide which trilogy is better. But how would you rank the individual films?

I'd say:
S2 > X2 > X3 > S1 > X1

Spiderman 2 sucked. I hated it. Spiderman 1 was good, but still not as good as the Xmen's. Waaaaaaaaay too much cheese in S2.

I haven't seen X3 yet, but for the other 4.

X2 > X1 > S1 > S2

Spiderman 2 was the best comic book movie of all time

I'm gla someone else out there thinks that Spidey2 got WAY too cheesy and teetered on the line of a chick flick. When I go to the movies to see an action film, I don't want there to be an hour plus of love stories between Peter Parker and Mary Jane.

That said, my ranking matches up with llcooljabe's. I still need to see X3. The first two were AWESOME, though.

I would rank them:
1. X2
2. S2
3. X3
4. X1
5. S1

I thought Spidey 2 was FAR better than Spidey 1. X3 could have been #1 on this list if it was about 25 minutes longer and no so anticlimatic.

Thank you for pre-releasing my response.

I think X2 is the best comic book movie ever. I think the Incredibles is the best superhero movie ever. I hope Superman Returns is better than both (although i'm not expecting it).

S2 > X2 >> S1 > X1 > X3



I loved S2 and X2. The rest is terrible.
