Best and Worst Comic Book Movies

Rottentomatoes.com crunched their movie reviews for comic book movies and found out that American Splendor and Spider-Man 2 made the top of the list as the best-reviewed comic book movies, while Spidey 3 came in at number 35.
Son of the Mask, ranked number 94 at the bottom of the list, has the honor of being the worst-reviewed comic book movie.
The list includes movies based on traditional comic books, graphic novels, manga and newspaper comic strips as well as feature films without traditional superheroes. Thus films such as A History of Violence, Garfield and 300 were assessed in the final tally.
The full list is on the jump:

Rotten Tomatoes used a weighted system that factored both Tomatometer™ ratings and the actual number of reviews, ensuring that older movies with fewer reviews were not be given higher standing. The Tomatometer is a tool that measures the percentage of favorable print, broadcast, radio, and online reviews from accredited film critics across the nation to rank movies as “Fresh” (60% or above) or “Rotten” (below 60%). Films with fewer than twenty reviews were excluded so that every movie on the list would have some level of critical weight behind it.blockquote>
