Ok... I never saw Barb Wire, but is it really a super hero movie?

Barb Wire is indeed based on a comic. It's was put out by Dark Horse, I believe. Don't waste your time with the flick. They ripped off the entire plot directly from Casablanca.

There's a problem here: the choices are so lopsided..one movie clearly outshines the other in both success and artistic value. Why don't you pare up the big movies where the outcome isn't so certain? Like maybe Spiderman vs Superman? Batman (Burton) vs Batman Begins? and so on,..

For the 456,000th time -- It's a tournament, and within the next week the match-ups will become a lot more even, trust me. But in order to figure out the greatest superhero movie of all time, we had to include everyone.

Batman Return should have been ranked higher. Also I guess everyone don't like Blade 2 but I think it is the best one in the series. I thought it would have been a blowout against that crap which was X-Men 3.

xmen-3 had more interesting characters and better ideas than blade 2 which had nothing to offer the franchise aside from more action
