Worst Superhero movie?

[Arturo Classico]

So with all the awesome announcements of Comic-Con especially in regards to the Marvel Movies, especially with The Avengers it got me to thinking about what were the worst comic based movies ever. I really don't have a definitive pick of the worst although my top five would be as such, in no particular order:

(1 Captain America
(2 Batman and Robin
(3 Supergirl
(4 The Spirit
(5 Catwoman.

Anyway what are everyone elses picks for the worst superhero movies.

Dark Knight, I'm different, hyuck hyuck!

There, now that I got that out of the way and saved someone a post, I'm sure, I don't know if it's the worst exactly, but of those listed, Spirit springs out to me as the most painful. I expected a lot better than it delivered, and what it delivered was just hard to sit through

[The Summer of Muskrat XVII]

Catwoman, although The Spirit was a very close second. Also, you forgot to put Elektra on the list

Catwoman I was fortunate enough to not actually see.

That I've seen, Elektra. I've heard that Catwoman is an absolutely miserabale movie, same with Steel, but I've never sat through them the whole way, so I don't feel like I can comment.

Batman and Robin, and The Spirit, to me, at least, fall into that "so ridiculously campy it's hard to hate it" category. They're bad movies, certainly, but they're entertainingly bad.

Superman IV.

I remember after The Ultimate Superman Collection came out, I was determined to watch all the movies and Fleischer cartoons. Granted that's not hard with Superman, Superman 2 (still consider it the best superhero movie), Superman Returns (I liked it) and the Fleischer cartoons, but Superman IV was painful. Even Superman 3 had the Smallville stuff (Annette O'Toole was excellent as Lana) and the awesome junkyard fight. But there were no redeeming qualities about Superman IV. I'm not kidding when I say 20 minutes of that movie, felt like 3 hours. It was worse than I remembered.

I've luckily stayed away from Catwoman, and I didn't hate Elektra.

I can't speak for The Spirit, but this is how I feel about Batman and Robin.

I feel it gets too bad of a rap from people that were expecting something serious. It was, from what I've read, intentionally supposed to be really campy. Like 60's TV Batman campy. That was the point. And I love me some camp. So to me, it was a blast of a movie.

Fantastic 4 Rise Of the Silver Surfer

['Foretold' Joker]

Is tank girl a superhero?

If not the superman 4 as it was poorly made.

[YAKMAN is ICHIBAN]

Nick Fury: Agent of Shield starring David Hasselhoff is pretty terrible.

[Johnny Flamingo]

Gotta go with Catwoman, that movie was simply horrid.

I never felt that Batman and Robin was as bad as its made out to me. Just a campy movie that many expected to be serious, though its probably the worst of the Batman movies.

I kinda liked Elektra.

Screw you, Dolph Lundgren as The Punisher was awesome!

Anyway, though I haven't seen it for myself, Supergirl has been a running joke with some of my friends. Particularly the scene where she flies out of the water, even though it's obviously a cardboard cutout of her being dipped into the water played in reverse.

[Legion]

As far as I'm concerned this thread begins and ends at Catwoman.

While obviously films like Batman and Robin, the first Captain America film and Supermans 3 and 4 are poor, they were at least, in some ways funny or can be appreciated for their poor story, or have a redeeming feature like certain characters or the odd scene.

Catwoman was just a name cash in vehicle for Halle Berry that had nothing to do with the comics, nothing to do with the wider DC universe, nothing to do with anything related to it's source material and on top of that had a poor original story, poor original villain and was awful of just every level.

Iron Man. It's probably the second worst movie I've ever seen behind Revenge Of The Fallen.

If not for these this movie... Would still be awful but slightly less awful... Maybe... Nah.

[Ryback on a Pole!]

The 2003 Hulk movie.

When I went to see it I expected it to be basically 2 hours of Hulk Smash

Instead we get 1 and a half hours of seeing boring Bruce Banner, Hulk fighting a giant poodle and an admittedly good scene where Hulk fights the army.

So dull...
