Top Ten Most Epic Superhero Movies

With Avenger's: Endgame soon coming out on April 26th of 2019, which we are just a week from, I thought I should do a list now that kinda suited it. I predict this movie is going to be very epic, so I will make a top ten most epic superhero movies list. With that being said, here is it.
The Top Ten
1 Avengers: Endgame

You know how there's that on movie that you don't care how much you watch it, you cannot watch it enough? That movie that has everything you want, everything you need, packed into a few hours? That one movie that is the perfect combination of humour, action, fear, joy, sadness and loveable characters and memories? No matter how sad the movie is, it always cheers you up when you watch it? The movie that sets the perfect tone for memes? That to me is Avengers: Endgame. I personally had no problem with The women team up scene, (spoilers) Black Widow dying instead of Hawkeye, Hulk's new look or Korg and Meek playing fortnite. Actually, it was only fat Thor that annoyed me a little. They say Avengers: Endgame is the most anticipated crossover of all time and it is not hard to see why. Without a doubt, this movie deserves top spot!

I know people love this movie, but to me, both Infinity War and Endgame suck in my opinion. They're just so overrated. We have way too many avengers movies. The only good thing is Thanos. I'd rather watch the animated Avengers, My Little Pony, Salad Fingers, Danganronpa: The Animation, and animal movies than this. I'm fine with people loving this, but to me, this is far from the level of Danganronpa or Salad Fingers or MLP.

No movie can ever top Avengers: Endgame. What we think of when someone says 'superheroes' are the huge battles, but Avengers: Endgame showed us the aftermath and what happens when the heroes lose! Avengers: Endgame has a lot of humorous moments to, such as fat Thor or the 'build-a-bear' joke. Then came all the moments that we were terrified of. Hawkeye in the tunnels and Hulk, Rhodes and Rocket drowning were just a few of these moments where we feared for the characters lives. And the scenes that we fell in love with, like Captain America lifting Thor's hammer and all the avengers returning. There will never be another franchise that has 21 movies leading up to it, 21 movies leaving us wondering what happens next, 21 movies that lead up to 2 magic words: 'Avengers...Assemble'

This is my favorite movie. But it isn't the most epic. That's civil war, infinity war, or winter soldier. The reason it isn't the most epic is that it was only one big battle that was epic. It's my favorite movie because as a long-time Marvel fan all the callbacks made me feel really nostalgic and happy and the jokes made me laugh. Both Cap and Tony's endings were really emotional and made a great ending for the infinity saga.

2 Avengers: Infinity War

I seen Avengers: Endgame yesterday and wasn't it a great way to end the MCU! Avengers Infinity War was the first time anyone has seen the superheroes lose, which is the only thing that made Avengers: Endgame good, they had to bring back 50% of the worlds population! If the Avengers had won, we A) wouldn't need Endgame and B) Wouldn't have been such a good movie! This is the first time in Movie history where our heroes lost and half of them are either dead or in the Soul World! The movie is so iconic, unpredictable, greatly acted and has such great CGI, how could it not be number 1?

Obviously. I don't need to say much about this one. It's the movie that all the previous movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe were setting up for. After nearly twenty movies of introducing tons and tons of characters to set up this "final" battle, this movie was released. And it's definitely so far the most epic marvel movie that I so far have seen. With all the battles and intensity and the climax, this one is high up on the list.

I know Endgame has come out and that movie is quite epic as well but there's just something so well done about infinity war that I am not able to really get over it. I think the action scenes were good and really showed what Thanos was capable of and the ending did really well to subvert expectations.
An excellent movie and in my opinions still a lot better than Endgame, which had too many pacing issues(still an excellent farewell to the Avengers)

There's a reason this is number 1. The acting was great, the cgi was excellent, the tone was perfect (despite being the most intense MCU movie at the time, it was hilarious) the ending was crazy, and the action was brilliantly choreographed, Thought the plot was great, too.

3 The Dark Knight

the masterpiece of all masterpieces this movie is so good that when I got up my body was shaking from the intensity. heath ledger did an amazing job as the joker and Christian bale did a good job too as the batman. Hanz Zimmer terrifying yet simple score also really took this movie to the next level. But let's not forget the director, every scene, in my opinion, was absolutely perfect not one thing bad about. The brutality put into the role, I mean heath ledger asked to be punched in the face. Also, let's pay our respects to heath ledger who left our world too soon. Even though infinity war and endgame had good acting and good directors it is pretty overrated compared to this masterpiece of a movie.

Yes. Dark.
This film will be dislodged from its number one position with other overrated, media-hyped movies. There are classic films down there which ought to be in the top ten, however, they are not popular and voters, of course, tend to vote for the one they watched. Epic? Well...

Even though I really enjoyed Infinity War I still think The Dark Knight is the greatest Superhero movie of all time. But it's amazing how Christopher Nolan can make such an amazing DC movie but any other DC movie that comes after it is just significantly inferior.

The only superhero move that could compete to be the best movie of all time. It is truly a masterpiece not just inside the genre of comic book movie, but outside its own genre as well. It is truly a masterful crime/thriller with batman and joker.

4 Thor: Ragnarock

Duh, obviously. It's "ragnarok". The doom of asgard. How can that not be epic? While it's not actually as dark as you might think due to the massive amount of humour and jokes that are generally pretty good in my opinion I gotta say that the stuff that's epic, truly is epic. Like the final battle for example. That's some pretty good stuff I must say. And the character of Hela, has tons of epic moments as well.

The absolute best Marvel movie! I can't wait for Love and Thunder!

Just the humor in this movie, it's so good!

Awesome movie! Super funny! Great action! And of course, ragnarock. The end of it all. I really don't want to see Love and Thunder though...(shudders).

I really like this movie, but the comedy parts are a bit too many.

5 The Avengers

It brings Earth's mightiest hero's together. It also brings Loki, which ties into the previous movies. It also kind of introduces the Infinity Stones.

It was a pretty great movie, mainly involving the introduction of the 'Avengers Initiative' and the original 6 Avengers. Also, in the post credit scene, the introduction of a magenta-pink Thanos, though he turned the color of a grape as the movies went on!

When I was a kid I bought The Mighty Avengers 1 for 12 cents. This movie brought back the memories of reading that issue. Wow

This is my favorite Avengers movie and it also has comedy in it.

6 Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse

I love how it's a one shot story so you don't need to watch any other film to appreciate it. It looks good, it's funny, there is a lot of heart, was a real tear jerker, had great action, and was a great unintentional good bye gift for Stan Lee. You couldn't make a better Spider-Man film.

This movie was disappointing in my opinion. I think that it had a good idea for a plot line, but was executed a bit badly. I'm not saying it wasn't funny or I didn't like it, but I had higher expectations.

It's a very imaginative and creative film. The visuals were stunning as well. It definitely deserves the praise and the acclaim it gets.

This movie combines revolutionary style with one of the best superheroes and a great plot, to make something amazing.

7 Captain America: The Winter Soldier

The only really epic movie of the captain america series. The First Avenger was a boring and not too exciting and Civil War was mainly just messed up and confusing. This is the only good one, and the only quite epic one. Very emotional movie and good climax and the final battle and battles overall really got me hooked up.

There are few sequels that are better then the original, this is one of them.

The best in the Captain America trilogy.

A quite emotional and amazing movie!

8 Guardians of the Galaxy

This is my favorite movie in general but on a list for epicness I don't think it should be that high. The Dark Knight, Batman, Captain America: Civil War and The Avengers are all more epic in my opinion

One of the funniest movies ever! The sci-fi action is wonderfully cheesy, the characters are great, and the plot is one of the best. Nothing goes over this movie's head. Its reflexes are too fast. It would catch it.

My absolute favorite, kind of for older audiences, that's one of the reasons I love it so much. Rocket is amazing, too. The characters are so unique and the plot is amazing, I hope they make a 3rd one!

The first movie of the best Marvel trilogy, can't wait for vol. 3!

9 Superman (1978)

Most of the movies above are overrated and mediocre. This movie, along with the 2nd one, are well done classics. It should at least be in the top 10.

It made us believe a man could fly, and that Clark Kent really could fool everyone! We wouldn't have many superhero movies today if not for this proving it could be done.

16th? It's the best superhero movie ever made. God I feel old...

It's a classic.

10 Black Panther

Overrated the cgi is very bad. The characters are not that great. It's another middle of the road superhero flick that's over hyped because of the cultural aspects

An incredible film that I could watch over and over again. A true masterpiece that deserves the 97% rating it has on Rotten Tomatoes.

Not the best but great movie overall, and best black superhero movie.

A bit overrated, honestly. But it's still good, I must say.

The Contenders
11 Captain America: Civil War

Bucky, my favorite character gets saved from being the Winter Soldier and we uncover more of Tony Stark's awkward relationship with his parents. We also see how different Steve Rogers is from Tony. The Airport battle was one of the best fights in all of Marvel, pitting Earth's mightiest hero's against one another. It also introduces Tom Holland's Spiderman, not mentioning Black panther.

This movie took a cartoonish plot and turned it into a beautiful political debate that explored and challenged its characters in a very interesting way. Other than Endgame, I believe this is the best MCU movie since everything from the dialogue to the action is top notch

I remember the first time I watched this movie. It was just so epic and insane. This movie is really impressive, at times confusing, but still a really great film.

I loved the plot of superheroes fighting each other.

12 Batman Begins

Best superhero one liner. "You never did learn to mind your surroundings!" Raz-al Guhl is my favorite villain of all time. Prove me wrong.

I still have copies of Batman year one. A great story equals a great movie.

Batman himself was just awesome.
Also I loved how dark it was.

Easily the best superhero movie. And pretty epic.

13 Superman II
14 Spider-Man 3

The darkest and edgiest of the trilogy. Also my favourite. Anyway one of the reasons it's my favourite is because its tone. I mentioned it's darker and edgier, and by reading the title of the list, you already know what I'm going to say what else it is so I won't say it. I mean it has three villians and all are pretty excellent and make up for great fights, my favourite of these being venom symbiote. However sandman and harry osborn are way more developed though I'll admit.

The best of the first trilogy. It has great memes and Harry Osborne was a really good villain.

Damn! the only movie that I recognized, but the others it just the new Kid s' generation of movies in hs history!

Raimi loathes it. I think it's pretty good considering the fact that Raimi didn't understand Venom well.

15 Iron Man

This movie started everything, and it is probably the movie least people understand. It has a great meaning, but some people don't like it because there isn't much action. But action isn't EVERYTHING PEOPLE!

This is the perfect superhero movie. With the best actor for the role. Perfect.

This should be higher. It was then movie that started everything!

This was the first marvel movie I have ever watched!

16 Shazam!

I was hoping this would be on the list! I've seen it twice in the theaters, and it's definitely one of my favorite movies now! SHAZAM!

One of the best movies from DC after a while, funny movie but doesn't forget that it's a superhero movie.

Really fun movie with a great villain.

17 Logan

How is this movie so low? That opening scene where Logan massacres a bunch of car jackers and cuts a dudes arm off with it's finger on the trigger causing a bullet to hit another dude in the leg should put up at the top 10 at LEAST!

A really emotional and wholesome movie and last we will probably see of hugh jackman's amazing wolverine. One of the best Xmen movie after a while of trash xmen movies.

This movie is the BEST superhero movie I have ever seen. LOGAN deserves to be in top 3.

How is this not in the top 3?

18 Aquaman

A lot of awful CGI. Trying to be too smart. Too many "jump-scares". Weak plot. Boring action. This is a "flood" of disappointment.

This was an excellent movie for martial arts fans, this is purely for the fans that like action, the story is your typical Superhero movie and that has been accusations that it is just a ripoff of Black Panther

The 2nd-best DCEU movie is funny, smart, and has great action, though the plot wasn't my favorite.

It's a comedy, action, and super hero. What more do you want.

19 Deadpool

Not old enough to watch this yet which depresses me so much! This is probably gonna be the first MA 15 movie I watch when I'm old enough!

I love the part where Deadpool kills a bunch of guys with only one more round of bullets.

If you want to watch humor here is your movie it is the best movie for superhero comdey lovers.

20 Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

Why isn't this higher, why haven't more people voted for this, and why would anyone vote for any other movie?

This is one of the funniest movies in the MCU. I didn't enjoy the plot as much, but the action and the humor made up for it.

I love this more than guardians 1 it has better music action and baby groot!

This movie is hilarious! I love it! 9/10 (would've have been 10/10 but they killed off Yondu, so)

21 Batman
22 Spider-Man 2

This has stood the test of time and is still one of the best superhero movies ever.

One of the greatest superhero movies I've seen so far.

How is Spider Man Homecoming higher than this?

This should be in the Top 5.

23 Batman: Mask of The Phantasm

Like AniMat said about this film in one of the oldest episodes of AniMat's Classic Reviews: Who the fridge doesn't love Batman?

IKR! Sure, in Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad, Batman was just so out-of-character that it's unimaginable that such a highly hatable Batman like in most (keep in mind I said "most", 'because Justice League is an improvement over the other two of those 2016 DC Extended Universe films I mentioned whether you bash it, like it or both) of the DCEU films would even exist! But in Mask of the Phantasm and the show it is based, there's barely anything to complain about! In fact, we couldn't explain elaborately details to why Mask of the Phantasm is one of the greatest Batman films up to the ranks of The LEGO Batman movies and Tim Burton's Batman! The Batman trilogy by Christopher Nolan is well-made, but these other Batman films had more of a unique charm than these Batman films.

24 Spider-Man

You could say that Spider-Man is Marvel's equivalent to Batman. So much so, that they have many movies that are very well-regarded like Spider-Man 3's predecessors (though I like Spider-Man 3 as something that is hilariously failed) and a few released in the 2010s that we just wish were made by different directors like Suicide Squad and the The Amazing Spider-Man films. Speaking of 201r superhero films, it's just incredible how great Guardians of the Galaxy and Big Hero 6 are compared to The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

I loved the line: "It's time to die!" Way to go, William Dafoe.

This should be in the Top 5.

Best spider man movie

25 Doctor Strange

Doctor Strange is the best character in the MCU.
1. He has cool powers
2. His costume is great
3. He's Benedict Cumberbatch
Case closed, people

I was very happy when I watched it.

Cool, but kind of...strange
