[quote=wolf]Hmmm. Movie based on comic book. Rulebook says ... "will suck."QUOTE]

In respectful disagreement, I humbly submit this list of movies that did not suck, yet were based on comic books:

1) X Men (both of 'em)
2) Spiderman (both of 'em)
3) Superman (well, the first couple of them, anyway)
4) Batman (well, the first couple of them, anyway)
5) Men in Black (the first one...second was a letdown)
6) The Rocketeer
7) Hellboy (well, *I* liked it)
8) Mystery Men

Admittedly, some of these come from graphic novels, which aren't precisely the same as comic books, but close enough for this discussion.

Now...movies based on *video games*...there's a surefire recipe for suckiness.
