I hate them. Over time I've discovered that not one single one appeals to me in any way. This includes Batman, The Hulk, X-Men, Cat Woman, Superman, Spider Man, The Punisher, etc. I don't know what it is about this genre but they are all terrible to me. I will not be seeing the newest Batman of course.

Anybody else feel like this?

For me it is on a case-by-case basis. I really liked the first Superman and Spiderman II, but virtually all other comic book movies really suck.

Spidermans were pretty good, x-men ones were marginal. Batman USE to be good but its deteriorated. Maybe Batman Begins will revive the franchise.

Only if they don't look 100% fake like the Hulk did. Spiderman was OK but lots of the jumping sequences looked totally fake.

Warner Bros. tends to take a giant dump on the DC properties it makes movies for... Marvel, on the other hand, at least makes an effort to make a good movie.
