And they just released another movie with that name recently.
I love the smell of desperate librarian in the morning.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Plus, Gloria Steinem is involved with the making of a documentary with the same name. It's the name of their twitter feed and startles me every time I see it.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I always think of the animated film by Sylvain Chomet (the Triplets of Belleville guy), which was wonderful.

Just got back from Captain America. I think it may be the best comics-based movie I've ever seen.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Emmett and I saw Captain America today and quite enjoyed it.
The two teenaged girls sitting behind us broke out in a bit of appreciative giggles on seeing Steve Rogers super-soldierized body.
Spider-Man 2 remains my gold standard, though.
And I think X-Men 2 is underrated and kind of forgotten.
And the first Chris Reeve Superman. Also Supes II ("kneel before Zod!")
Uhm, and Batman Returns for the pure gothic sets and Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman.
Iron Man (not second one, though, which was very formulaic).
Then the Nolan Batmans, I guess. I like them but I don't love them as much as Emmett (or ita).
Kickass and Scott Pilgrim are on the list.

Captain America had cry points. It wins.

I love it! The other ones on your list are good as well.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What were the cry points in Captain America? I totally missed those.
I liked X-Men 2, and for ensemble comic book movies it's head and shoulders the winner. But both of the Dark Knight movies are my favourite solo ones, easily. Captain America is very very good, but didn't make me gasp.
I thought all of the Spider-Man movies were varying levels of annoying. Iron Man was a great comic book movie for people not necessarily into comic book movies.

It'll be interesting to see how Captain America holds up. I can't watch the Burton Batman movies (including Batman 2) anymore because the pacing is so slow, the actors are so wrong, and the scripts are so clunky - and I love Burton's vision.
Iron Man suffered in the final third, I thought, and Captain America does too, but I'm going to have to say that those are the two superhero movies I'd rate the highest, with Nolan's two Batman movies next.
I disliked the Spider-Man movies enough to not care that they're rebooting them, beyond thinking the reboot looks lame, and wishing Mary Jane wasn't blonde.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
wishing Mary Jane wasn't blonde.
The reboot love interest is Gwen Stacy, IIRC, who is blonde.
Also? MECHANICAL WEBSHOOTERS!!!!!
