Not to give away my #1 choice, but the greatest scene in the history of comic book adaptations is when Jubilee and Skin first reach the X-Mansion, and White Queen tells Jubilee she has to get naked so they can do a scan of her. And she does. And everybody stares at her.  There is simply no better comic book film than Generation X. I don't think I even knew this was a film. |

It is exactly as good a movie as the picture suggests. |

It was another of the Fox tv movies from the era that gave us the Hoff as Nick Fury. -M |

While there have been many worthy contenders suggested for the #1 slot, I hope people are not neglecting this cinematic masterpiece when compiling their lists:  |

Ha, I think the last time we did this subject one of my entries was Catwoman starring Halle Berry. Last Night I watched the first 20 minutes and hated it. Someone certainly had this on their list last time, as I remember questioning their taste, their sanity, etc. at the time.  |

I missed the bit that said it was limited to movies and tv shows. Must re-think ...
I assume it has to be the movie or the show or at least a particular episode itself, rather than a single aspect - say a costume or set design, or a particular performance you like even though you might not rate the film or show itself that highly?

I dunno. If you can make a convincing argument for basing a selection on a particular aspect, I don't see a problem. Try it and see! |

Don't know how convincing my argument will be, but I'm gonna try. |

If the 2 or 3 things I have in mind don't make my list of 12, I'll be sure to mention them in the thread for alternate choices that we usually have afterwards. |
