The number beside each pick is the number of votes it received in the last round. If there is a 0, they received no votes, but I wanted 15 choices so they made it into this round. There are two new entries: HANCOCK and PUNISHER: WAR ZONE, both easily vying for worst super-hero movie of 2008.

I can see your point there, Grimy. Though I did enjoy the Director's Cut of that film. Since we only get 15 choices, I had to decide which of the films that had no votes would make the 2nd Round. In this case, I felt ELEKTRA was a better choice (and a poorer film).

Really mind-boggling that millions of dollars went into this dreck. A truly mean-spirited entry into the super hero genre. The humor goes over like a lead balloon, too.

Such a wonderful selection of wretched superhero movies ...FLASH GORDON, JUDGE DREDD, BATMAN & ROBIN... but MYSTERY MEN is a guilty pleasure of mine. I've seen it 3 or 4 times. Paul "Pee Wee Herman" Reubens as The Spleen aka Flatulence Man, Hank Azaria as The Blue Raja, Ben Stiller as Mr. Furious, Wes Studi as The Sphinx - they all kept me amused for my 90 minute investment. Plus, Tom Waits got to overact in it too. And for me it's one of Greg Kinnear's finest performances post-Talk Soup.

The Punisher is a killer, pure and simple...that's no hero in my book, let alone a "super" hero. I went with Catwoman myself...they just used the basic concept and didn't even use Selina Kyle, the original Catwoman. What was that all about? Horrible costume, too.

No matter how bad someone else tells you a movie is, you still have to see it for yourself, before you start giving out reviews.

Looks like we're not the only ones, BT. And HANCOCK is running a close second to the classless HOWARD THE DUCK.

And, though not a "great" movie, I too have a soft spot for MYSTERY MEN. Come on, Mr. Furious? Frickin' hil-ar-i-ous.
