I'm not the biggest fan on the original justice league movie, but I wouldn't exactly call it gross, it's just not that good a movie but there are worse ones out there.
@@alexjones50 True, ive seen many a worse movie, however just for the fact that its a blockbuster makes it disappointing how uneven the tone amd pacing were.
I've been on a big Superman kick recently. Growing up I was always a much bigger fan of Batman and the bat family. While I still love them, now that I'm in my late 20's I find the hopefulness of Superman much more inspiring.
Even the Russo brothers admit that they were inspired by the Superman 1978 movie when they were going about captain America in winter soldier all the way up to endgame. They even said they would love the opportunity, if given, to work on a Superman project and I’m all for it.
Of the Superman related movies that I've actually seen, my list would be: 1.) Superman (1978) 2.) Superman II (both versions) 3.) Zack Snyder's Justice League 4.) Man of Steel 5.) Superman Returns 6.) Batman v Superman 7.) Superman III 8.) Superman IV 9) Justice League Theatrical Cut Never bothered to check out Supergirl or Mole Men
The Lex was far better in 1978, although not as good as cartoon Corporate Lex. CR did a far better job as Clark, with HC keeping up as Superman. MoS had too many errors with power levels for my taste, although the score was great, not as super as the 1978 iconic theme. MoS had far better special effects for obvious reasons and I really liked Zod.

*Man of Steel* That masterpiece will remain in my heart as the best and the greatest Superman movie of all time and as one of the best superhero/comic-book movies. Thanks to Zack Snyder, Hans Zimmer, Christopher Nolan, David Goyer, Amir Mokri and to the best Superman, Henry Cavill. #FlySon
@Abdullah M better than scores from most of the superhero/comic-book movies or maybe all of them. The Hans Zimmer's finest but after the score from Interstellar.
1) Superman Returns (i know it's far from great but i am really nostalgic for it) 2) Zack Snyder's Justice League 3) Superman The Movie 4) Man of Steel 5) Superman 2 6) Batman vs Superman 7) Josstice League 8) Superman 3 9) Supergirl 10) Superman 4 (Not seen the moleman one and i honestly think Superman as a character hasn't fully been done justice yet. And i think Superman and Lois might be my favourite version if it carries on the way it is)
Don't even watch Mole Men, it's so stupid and unwatchable with such a mediocre story (I haven't watch it but I did hear negative stuff about this film of what I just said).
My dad gave me all of the original Superman movies on vhs and I watched them all of the time. I was born in 2007, his legacy probably still lives on to this day. So in my mind, Superman II is the best Superman movie ever
My favorite Superman - themed movies or TV shows are: Superman 1 (1978) - Christopher Reeves was , in one word ICONIC. Superman 2 - I love the fight scenes with the 3 rogue Kryptonians. Terence Stamp is perfection as Zod. Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman - Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher got chemistry, plus I love Teri's feisty but funny interpretation of Lois Lane. Smallville - Tom Welling did a great portrayal of the young Clark Kent, very relatable and down to earth performance. Man Of Steel - Unpopular opinion: I think Henry Cavill is a good Superman and I am satisfied with the way he portrays the Man of Steel. ZSJL - in this movie, Superman is saved the best for last, a big cherry on top of an epic superhero saga.
Recently saw MoS for the first time after years of critics stating it to be "terrible" at worst to "mediocre" at best, and thus not wanting to watch it. I myself enjoyed it so much I'm actually thinking of re-watching BvS again and giving it a second chance (for the Ultimate Edition ofc). Really damn good movie, almost underrated. And this is coming from a guy who isn't a huge fan of Snyder. Also, I still listen to said critics, as I'm for giving other opinions a fair shot.
@@jordikaka3893 lol thought you meant you liked the show. Totally read that wrong! Rotten Tomatoes is an awful website, so is IMDb most of the time. However, both Sean and Chris Stuckmann have accounts, so my suggestion is to listen to UA-cam critics, as odd as that sounds. RT and IMDb are shills to an extent.
@@jordikaka3893 right. RT has both Critic Score and Audience Score right there, and IMDb is mostly audiences, although I would say some critics use the site to review movies. My point was that both sites have underrated movies and overrated movies (literally). Batwoman is at an extremely high score on RT, but at a dismal (and well deserved) 3.5 last I checked.
Very good list. I have to agree with #1. It's influence can still be felt 43 years later as the template for comic book origin stories. There have been numerous important comic book movies over the year (1989's Batman, 2000's X-Men, 2002's Spider-Man, 2005's Batman Begins, 2008's Iron Man & The Dark Knight & 2012's The Avengers) but none more important to me than Superman The Movie. I was 7 when I saw it in theaters and yes it did make this kid truly believe that a man could fly. R.I.P. Christopher Reeve.
I know he’s from a tv show but Tom Welling is definitely my favourite superman 💪 I love Smallville From the films tho it has to be Christopher reeves may he forever rest in peace

Are you going to do an updated version of every Batman movie Ranked or are you going to wait till The Batman comes out? Also awsome video. Keep up the great work.
Man of Steel is the greatest Superman movie ever and one of the greatest superhero movies ever made. Zack Snyder was just ahead of his time, sad that many modern audiences are too stupid to realise that. Great vid as always Sean!
Hmm, I know many love MoS but personally I hated it. When I watched it I just found it boring and uninteresting. Zach Snyder has huge fan base now I see him all over the place!
@@thecodyl164 I have to agree with u with the boring thing. The difference is I liked it. The dark tone works on BVS and ZSJL but not in MOS for me. Still a great movie if u look at the point of the movie. Maybe future movies will have darker tone like Zack's.
I would have swapped man of steel for superman 2. Man of steel was filled with joyless overwhelming chaotic action, while superman 2 knew how to handle comedy, drama and action in equal parts and was fun entertainment throughout

I didn't mind the "older version" of Lex Luthor in Superman Returns. I don't need Lex to "keep up with the times" in how he's interpreted now, that's still an interpretation of classic Lex Luthor. The modern touch to it definitely helped. I feel like maybe it worked better for me because Superman Returns WAS my first Superman movie, I never even seen the Donnor movies till after.
Something else I think that is pivotal to Superman 1 is that it really is the blueprint for DC on how to create a successful superhero film/franchise. Two standout films in DC that it is very evident that they were using Donner's film as their blueprint was Begins and Wonder Woman. Nolan was so opposite to Singers approach w Superman Returns, Singer basically went the homage route and recreated the first film but just updated it and made it his own. That's surface level. Nolan actually took Donner's film apart and studied WHY it was successful and WHAT made it successful and applied the philosophy that Donner had to Batman (he even had talks with Donner to pick inside the directors head). 89 clearly took some inspiration, too, but begins really feels like the Donner approach / or Superman 1 version of Batman. And I think Jenkins did the same with wonder woman, that too borrowed a lot of elements from Donner's approach. Snyder's JL worked I think because he had those 4 hours to work with and his ideas really seemed like they needed 4 hours to tell everything he was trying to set up. For the most part, I've noticed that if the DC film doesn't follow some of the blueprint from Superman 1, and lessons learned from that film, the movie has a good chance of not being successful.
Your Top Two are spot-on. Donner’s Superman The Movie is genre-creating fantastic. Snyder’s Justice League is the best DC movie I have seen in the modern age.
My Ranking 1.Zack Snyders Justice League (Reminded me why I love comic book movies) 2.Superman (Perfect for when it came out and Is the Godfather of Comic Book Movies) 3.Batman Vs Superman Ultimate Edition(Theatrical Cut sucks however this while not Perfect is very ambitious and has a lot of Great Action) 4.Superman 2 (Good considering what happened behind the scenes however it still did a great job at continuing the first film) 5. Man of Steel (It does have great action and one of the Best DCEU Villains however it does not stand out as much however the later films improved it) 6.Superman 4 (A disapointing end to the Christopher Reeve Superman movies but I actually liked it unlike most people but it is a little bit of a heartbreaking way to end the Christopher Reeve films and I think if it wasnt for the trouble behind the scenes this might of been better than the first film) 7. Superman Returns (A film that is fine with what it was going for but some of the acting and writing was terrible however the action was ok) 8.Superman 3 (A movie that kind of undid the Magic of the first 2 supermans however it did feautured some good action but it did not age great) 9.Justice League (A film that I liked it when I first saw it but I was dissapointed like everyone else but after Zack Snyder's Justice League came out I just view it as an Abomination) Supergirl and Superman and The Mole Man havent seen and have no interest
1) Superman 2) Zack Snyder’s Justice League 3) Superman II (Don’t know which version I like the most) 4) Man of Steel 5) Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice 6) Superman Returns 7) Superman III 8) Supergirl 9) Justice League 10) Superman IV: The Quest for Peace
8. Superman IV: The Quest for Peace 7. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice 6. Superman III 5. Zack Snyder's Justice League 4. Man of Steel 3. Superman Returns 2. Superman: The Movie 1. Superman II(The Richard Donner Cut)
It's interesting to see how far Superman has come in the movies. I've watched the majority of the movies on this list, and some I do like and will watch again while others (Josstice League) I won't watch again because of how bad the story and character development is. Though most people say that Cavill is the best Superman, I will always believe that Christopher Reeve is the best. I've watched Superman: The Movie so many times that for awhile, I believed Superman was real. Now don't get me wrong, all the other films are great, but I still reckon Christopher Reeve's Superman will forever be the best. Absolutely loved this video Sean and R.I.P Christopher Reeve: He made us believe a man could fly! 🙏🙏😢😢
Not including teamup movies (except for BVS), only solo movies: (haven't seen Mole Man) 1: Man Of Steel 2: Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice (Ultimate Edition) 3: Superman 2 4: Superman 5: Superman Returns 6: Superman 3 7: Superman IV: The Quest For Piece 8: Supergirl
My dad is a superman fan and he showed me the orginal live action superman as a kid but I didn't really like it so I'm interested to hear sean's opinion
1.Superman: The Movie-still the best. Epic and having tons of heart, this is the blueprint every potentially successful superhero film should look to for inspiration. 2.Superman Returns-the only Superman film that even comes close to the original. Criminally underrated. 3.Zack Snyder's Justice League-a real epic of a film. The four hours fly by, all the characters get a proper story arc, and the action is next level. 4.Man of Steel-a bold reinvention of Superman that just suffers from not having as much heart as it could 5.Superman 2(either version)-a very good sequel and more personal than the original, but lacks that film's epic scope. The Donner cut is good too, but I prefer Zod in the theatrical cut honestly. 6.Batman v Superman-uneven, but I have come around to it. The only thing I don't like now is Jesse Eisenberg. But I did like him in his small cameo in Zack Snyder's Justice League 7.Justice League-has its moments, but why bother when a much better version exists? 8.The Quest for Peace-not a good movie, as it never really builds any momentum, Nuclear Man is lame, and the effects are very poor. But it gets the edge over my bottom choice because of Christopher Reeve, Gene Hackman back as Lex, and it's at least short, unlike..... 9.Superman 3-This is my Batman & Robin. This film is a joke. It destroys everything the first 2 films set up and all for lame slapstick jokes that wouldn't be funny in the 1930s, let alone 1983. Nothing is properly developed, it's boring as heck, the comedy is awful, Richard Pryor gets more screentime than Christopher Reeve, Superman fighting a supercomputer is lame after taking on a criminal genius and General Zod, and what kid wants to see one of their heroes turn evil for half the movie? I hate this movie so much. At least 4 felt like Superman. I haven't seen Supergirl or Superman and the Mole Men in years, but both are above 3. Honestly, the best Superman film is the direct to video animated film Superman vs the Elite.
My List: (Haven’t seen Mole Men, never wanna see it) 10. Supergirl 9. Josstice League 8. Superman lV 7. Superman lll 6. BVS: Dawn Of Justice 5. Superman Returns 4. Superman ll 3. Zack Snyder’s Justice League 2. Man Of Steel 1. Superman
My list would be 7. Superman 4 The Quest for Peace 6. Superman 3 5. Superman Returns 4. Batman vs Superman Dawn of Justice 3. Superman 2. Superman 2 1. Man of Steel
10.Superman 4: The Quest for Peace 9.Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice 8.Justice League (2017) 7.Superman 3 6.Superman and the Mole Men 5. Man of Steel 4.Zack Snyder's Justice League 3.Superman Returns 2.Superman: The Movie (1978) 1.Superman 2 (1978)

When I was watching this video, it reminded me of WW84, which I call wonder woman quest for peace 😆
Superman 78 is a classic! 🔥
"Fly son. It's time" was probably my favourite moment from ZSJL. It was the true return of my superman
Chris Stuckmann's hilariocity of Superman 4 is one of my favorite videos on UA-cam
I know he’s from a tv show but Tom Welling is definitely my favourite superman 💪 I love Smallville
From the films tho it has to be Christopher reeves may he forever rest in peace
Love Smallville!
So glad there is an updated video of this.
How would you rank the Superman movies?
@@darkseidwavyy
11: Josstice League (D)
10: Superman and the Mole Men (C-)
9: Supergirl (C)
8: Superman: The Quest for Peace (C+)
7: BVS (B-)
6: Superman 3 (B-)
5: Superman Returns (B)
4: Man of Steel (B+)
3: Justice League (A-)
2: Superman II (A)
1: Superman (A)
@@NinjaCowboy-my6be Nice list, I think mole men and supergirl had a more terrible story than Josstice League and those movies were so unwatchable, josstice league was awful but watchable.
@@darkseidwavyy Yeah, but just like Sean said, after we figured out what happened behind the scenes, it just became a disgusting movie.
@@NinjaCowboy-my6be I'm starting to prefer BvS over Superman Returns
Been waiting for this 😀
Superman 3 is criminally underrated Richard Pryor is so damn good it’s campy fun
Black Superman Suit rocks in the Zack Snyder’s Justice League
Also a nice touch for comic book accuracy. Always a sucker for that
great rankings man
Feel like sharing your Superman movie ranking if you have one?
@@thenoirknight5729 I can try
My top 3:
3 _ Superman Returns
2 _ Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice
1 _ Justice League
Are you going to do an updated version of every Batman movie Ranked or are you going to wait till The Batman comes out? Also awsome video. Keep up the great work.
Man of Steel is the greatest Superman movie ever and one of the greatest superhero movies ever made. Zack Snyder was just ahead of his time, sad that many modern audiences are too stupid to realise that. Great vid as always Sean!
Hmm, I know many love MoS but personally I hated it. When I watched it I just found it boring and uninteresting. Zach Snyder has huge fan base now I see him all over the place!
@@thecodyl164 that's like your opinion man
@@thecodyl164 I have to agree with u with the boring thing. The difference is I liked it. The dark tone works on BVS and ZSJL but not in MOS for me. Still a great movie if u look at the point of the movie. Maybe future movies will have darker tone like Zack's.
@@gramxellofficial7697 Yeah, I thought BvS was pretty cool. I'd rate it like a 6/10 but overall I'm just excited for Matt Reeves Batman.
@@richardabraham1101Yeah, obviously.
I would have swapped man of steel for superman 2. Man of steel was filled with joyless overwhelming chaotic action, while superman 2 knew how to handle comedy, drama and action in equal parts and was fun entertainment throughout
I just watched Superman 1 and 2 today...both movies actually gave me goosebumps they were so perfect 👌.

I'm not a huge superman fan but thought I'd check out your ranking, because your rankings are fun lol!
Man of Steel is my personal favourite
Same.
Superman 2 needs to be higher on list, one of, if not the best!
Great video Sean! A video suggestion of mine would be to make a bracket or ranking of the animated DC shows! Could you think about it? I'd love to see how each one does! Thanks!
Thanks
It's tough because I haven't seen all the shows and a show takes a lot longer to watch an just a movie.
That’s perfectly alright! I also haven’t completed them, since as you said, they do take a while to finish. Don’t sweat it!
What about the animated. Movies

You’ll never too Christopher Reeve. Having said that, I hope we get one or two movies with Henry Cavill where he fights Brainiac and Bizarro.

Love your list bro! Superman has always been one of my favorite superheroes. Time to do a Superman TV series ranking! Haha.
I'm on a Daredevil kick myself... I slept on thus character too long. So many great comics I've discovered with this character.
2 Years later and I can't disagree with any of this. Pretty much the perfect ranking.
Great job sean as always. My top five.
1. Superman 1

Finally someone who doesn't prefer the Snyder Cut over man Of Steel
1.Barbie
2.Rugrats the movie
3. Legally blonde 2
My list
I didn't mind the "older version" of Lex Luthor in Superman Returns. I don't need Lex to "keep up with the times" in how he's interpreted now, that's still an interpretation of classic Lex Luthor. The modern touch to it definitely helped. I feel like maybe it worked better for me because Superman Returns WAS my first Superman movie, I never even seen the Donnor movies till after.
1. Man of Steel (A-)
2. Superman Returns (B)
3. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (B-)
I don't count either Justice League movies as Superman movies.
Super excited for the the upcoming dc rankings!
And donners is still the best title sequence to a film ever. I have yet to watch better......
Something else I think that is pivotal to Superman 1 is that it really is the blueprint for DC on how to create a successful superhero film/franchise. Two standout films in DC that it is very evident that they were using Donner's film as their blueprint was Begins and Wonder Woman. Nolan was so opposite to Singers approach w Superman Returns, Singer basically went the homage route and recreated the first film but just updated it and made it his own. That's surface level. Nolan actually took Donner's film apart and studied WHY it was successful and WHAT made it successful and applied the philosophy that Donner had to Batman (he even had talks with Donner to pick inside the directors head). 89 clearly took some inspiration, too, but begins really feels like the Donner approach / or Superman 1 version of Batman. And I think Jenkins did the same with wonder woman, that too borrowed a lot of elements from Donner's approach. Snyder's JL worked I think because he had those 4 hours to work with and his ideas really seemed like they needed 4 hours to tell everything he was trying to set up. For the most part, I've noticed that if the DC film doesn't follow some of the blueprint from Superman 1, and lessons learned from that film, the movie has a good chance of not being successful.
Hey Sean, I have a question: What is more unwatchable? Superman And The Mole Men Or The Fantastic Four (1994)?
Fantastic four wasnt even finished, so id say superman and the mole men
@@shirubionicle Both are terrible honestly but I agree
@@darkseidwavyy but is just old movie,i mean this movie doesnt make seriouslly for superhero like superman 1978
@Wavid To be honest, Fant4stic is still garbage but better than the 90s version.
Your Top Two are spot-on. Donner’s Superman The Movie is genre-creating fantastic. Snyder’s Justice League is the best DC movie I have seen in the modern age.
My Ranking
1.Zack Snyders Justice League (Reminded me why I love comic book movies)
2.Superman (Perfect for when it came out and Is the Godfather of Comic Book Movies)
3.Batman Vs Superman Ultimate Edition(Theatrical Cut sucks however this while not Perfect is very ambitious and has a lot of Great Action)
4.Superman 2 (Good considering what happened behind the scenes however it still did a great job at continuing the first film)
5. Man of Steel
(It does have great action and one of the Best DCEU Villains however it does not stand out as much however the later films improved it)
6.Superman 4
(A disapointing end to the Christopher Reeve Superman movies but I actually liked it unlike most people but it is a little bit of a heartbreaking way to end the Christopher Reeve films and I think if it wasnt for the trouble behind the scenes this might of been better than the first film)
7. Superman Returns
(A film that is fine with what it was going for but some of the acting and writing was terrible however the action was ok)
8.Superman 3
(A movie that kind of undid the Magic of the first 2 supermans however it did feautured some good action but it did not age great)
9.Justice League
(A film that I liked it when I first saw it but I was dissapointed like everyone else but after Zack Snyder's Justice League came out I just view it as an Abomination)
Supergirl and Superman and The Mole Man havent seen and have no interest
1) Superman
2) Zack Snyder’s Justice League
3) Superman II (Don’t know which version I like the most)
4) Man of Steel
5) Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
6) Superman Returns
7) Superman III
8) Supergirl
9) Justice League
10) Superman IV: The Quest for Peace
8. Superman IV: The Quest for Peace

6. Superman III
5. Zack Snyder's Justice League
4. Man of Steel
3. Superman Returns
2. Superman: The Movie
1. Superman II(The Richard Donner Cut)
It's interesting to see how far Superman has come in the movies. I've watched the majority of the movies on this list, and some I do like and will watch again while others (Josstice League) I won't watch again because of how bad the story and character development is. Though most people say that Cavill is the best Superman, I will always believe that Christopher Reeve is the best. I've watched Superman: The Movie so many times that for awhile, I believed Superman was real. Now don't get me wrong, all the other films are great, but I still reckon Christopher Reeve's Superman will forever be the best. Absolutely loved this video Sean and R.I.P Christopher Reeve: He made us believe a man could fly! 🙏🙏😢😢
Not including teamup movies (except for BVS), only solo movies: (haven't seen Mole Man)
1: Man Of Steel
2: Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice (Ultimate Edition)

MAN OF STEEL
My dad is a superman fan and he showed me the orginal live action superman as a kid but I didn't really like it so I'm interested to hear sean's opinion
Hm. Got any favorites for Superman films?
I’ve only seen the OG trilogy so
3. Superman 3
2. Superman the movie
1. Superman 2
(Although 1-2 go back and forth)
I recommend seeing the other Superman films when you get the chance
@@thenoirknight5729 yeah I eventually want to watch returns, man of steel and even quest for peace (even if for the wrong reasons!;)
1.Superman: The Movie-still the best. Epic and having tons of heart, this is the blueprint every potentially successful superhero film should look to for inspiration.
2.Superman Returns-the only Superman film that even comes close to the original. Criminally underrated.
3.Zack Snyder's Justice League-a real epic of a film. The four hours fly by, all the characters get a proper story arc, and the action is next level.
4.Man of Steel-a bold reinvention of Superman that just suffers from not having as much heart as it could
5.Superman 2(either version)-a very good sequel and more personal than the original, but lacks that film's epic scope. The Donner cut is good too, but I prefer Zod in the theatrical cut honestly.
6.Batman v Superman-uneven, but I have come around to it. The only thing I don't like now is Jesse Eisenberg. But I did like him in his small cameo in Zack Snyder's Justice League
7.Justice League-has its moments, but why bother when a much better version exists?
8.The Quest for Peace-not a good movie, as it never really builds any momentum, Nuclear Man is lame, and the effects are very poor. But it gets the edge over my bottom choice because of Christopher Reeve, Gene Hackman back as Lex, and it's at least short, unlike.....
9.Superman 3-This is my Batman & Robin. This film is a joke. It destroys everything the first 2 films set up and all for lame slapstick jokes that wouldn't be funny in the 1930s, let alone 1983. Nothing is properly developed, it's boring as heck, the comedy is awful, Richard Pryor gets more screentime than Christopher Reeve, Superman fighting a supercomputer is lame after taking on a criminal genius and General Zod, and what kid wants to see one of their heroes turn evil for half the movie? I hate this movie so much. At least 4 felt like Superman.
I haven't seen Supergirl or Superman and the Mole Men in years, but both are above 3. Honestly, the best Superman film is the direct to video animated film Superman vs the Elite.
My List: (Haven’t seen Mole Men, never wanna see it)
10. Supergirl
9. Josstice League
8. Superman lV
7. Superman lll
6. BVS: Dawn Of Justice
5. Superman Returns
4. Superman ll
3. Zack Snyder’s Justice League
2. Man Of Steel
1. Superman
@UC34nnpQXE4wXg0wRlIoLRiQ Bruh I edited my comment because I posted it by accident without writing anything lmao 😂
stay safe and keep making great videos like this.
There’s 11 Superman movies. Holy cow didn’t know that.
12 if you wanna count SHAZAM!
@@thenoirknight5729 but it's shazam not superman. I get what you mean tho but still
@@tristan8305 I know. Technicalities and *Featured* stuff can get tricky and confusing. So it's best not to include cameo films
Although both films feature General Zod ,Superman II should be rank higher than Man of Steel.
Do you think The Snyder Cut will be in your Top Five or Top Three when you rank all the DC Movies because I loved it
Without having looked at it, I think top 5 is probably a safe bet. Top 3....dont' know about that.
My list would be
7. Superman 4 The Quest for Peace
6. Superman 3
5. Superman Returns
4. Batman vs Superman Dawn of Justice
3. Superman
2. Superman 2
1. Man of Steel
10.Superman 4: The Quest for Peace
9.Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
8.Justice League (2017)

5. Man of Steel
4.Zack Snyder's Justice League
3.Superman Returns
2.Superman: The Movie (1978)

I would still watch Justice League over the Quest for Peace any day
