10 best superhero movies of all time
Superheroes once were as cinematically extinct as cowboys, but today they come in all shapes and sizes. Personally, I prefer the nostalgic "Captain America" to the snarky "Iron Man" movies, but you can find a caped crusader for every taste. ("Thor," for instance, is clearly angling for the heavy-metal market.) With the latest in the genre, "The Wolverine," I've put together a list of my 10 favorite superhero flicks. Apologies for not including 1998's "Blade" or 2004's "Hellboy," but hey -- there's no accounting for taste. -- RAFER GUZMÁN
