I actually quite liked Daredevil. It gets better with repeat viewings I guess.

I would say the bad ones are Ghost Rider, Elektra, Spider-Man 3, X-Men Last Stand, Blade Trinity, both Fantastic Four movies, and Wolverine. The Punisher movies were pretty bad as well, but they seem to have their fair share of dedicated fans. I may have to watch them again one of these days.

Then there are a ton of average ones: Spider-Man, X-Men, Hulk, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 2, Daredevil, Captain America, Blade, The Amazing Spider-Man.

Then the one's that are very good/great: Iron Man, The Avengers, X2, First Class, Spider-Man 2, Blade 2, and I actually quite liked Thor considering how bad it could have been in the wrong hands.

I guess the bad movies out number the good one's, but I blame that obviously the studios play a large role in ruining many of those movies. That and when they hire bad directors (Ratner, Story), the movie will probably suck.

Really? I think Jackman is a great Wolverine. Berry is awful, I agree there, but she did bring some name value to the franchise at least. And while I do agree they tend to focus too much on Wolverine, really that's what the audience wants. It's no different than Iron Man getting the major amount of screen time in The Avengers, and I assume what Batman and Superman will receive in Justice League. It's no different than the attention Wolverine receives in much of the comics and especially the cartoons (I believe he is in every single episode). Heck the last cartoon was Wolverine and the X-Men (it was actually pretty damn good too), with Wolverine taking the role that Cyclops originally played in the comics.
