Ang Lees Hulk is the most misunderstood comic book flick. Id vote The Punisher starring Thomas Jane, too (deserves to be #2). Some of these movies are too new to be considered under-appreciated, but I do see Kick-Ass 2 being shunned for inconspicuous reasons. Iron Man 2 deserves a spot, as well. Both Mickey Rourkes Ivan Vanko, and Sam Rockwells Justin Hammer were excellent villains, and they handled the origin of War Machine perfectly. Dredd does not belong on the list AT ALL. Yes, the box office results were extremely disappointing, but there is universal praise for that movie from most whove watched it beyond the theaters. Ghost Rider: Spirits Of Vengeance (the movie in the picture) probably deserves a spot, but I cant compel myself to defend it like I would Ang Lees Hulk, Iron Man 2, or The Punisher. It was better than the first Ghost Rider movie, but it felt a bit unfocused, and was way too frenetic and spastic for me to appreciate it as a good comic book flick, especially one for Ghost Rider. Spirits and the first GR movie balance each other out, with the first having a slower pace and a tighter focus on GRs alter-ego, Johnny Blaze, as an individual, and the second movie had way better action sequences and didnt feel like a run-of-the-mill superhero flick from the 90s. This list is bit sloppy, but it gets props for putting Dick Tracy on it, as its one of the best comic book inspired flicks ever.
