Good thing Wade corrected this mistake during the mid credit sequence of DP2😅

[MarquisDeSacks]

18:06 Wow, Ryan Reynolds even scrubbed Deadpool from WatchMojo's own video! 😆

[RandalReid]

Green Lantern's CG costume is the least of that film's issues.

Honorable mentions:
1. Batman and Robin. In the film, Batgirl is Barbara Wilson, the niece of Alfred Pennyworth instead of Barbara Gordon, the daughter of police commissioner James Gordon.
2. Too many villains in Spider-Man 3

The Costumes - seems like they always get people who've never read the comics to design the costumes. 🤦🏿‍♂️

I still wonder if Jesse Eisenberg playing Lex Luthor was someone's petty attempt to sabotage his career.

[mpthorvonericksen]

I'd move "Galactus as a Cloud" higher than 10. Great character is the books, and a "cool looking" one at that... to make him a space cloud is just awful.

[dhenderson]

"Christopher Nolan redeemed Bane".

Yeah, I remember in the comics where Bane had such a thick Scottish accent that he was almost impossible to understand, and also where he got taken out by Catwoman's motorcycle.

How Sam Raimi adapted Eddie Brock/Venom in Spider-Man 3 as Peter Parker's dark mirror is pretty clever in hindsight; many just didn't know it at the time.

[chadgaming]

I would HAVE to agree with you with Venom on Spider-Man 3, Rhino in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (even Andrew Garfield’s Peter said it was lame in No Way Home), Green Lantern (which is known as the WORST DC film of all time), and Deadpool in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Also with The Eternals and Madame Web, haven’t seen it, but, from what I’ve heard, I’m NOT going to watch it.

I knew Jessie Eisenburg was going to be bad when someone asked him how he feels about the portrayal of Lex. He said "ehh I dont really feel one way or the other, just another acting job"

[BlackHatCinephile]

A stainless steel bullet can't penetrate stainless steel armor and an adamantium bullet can't penetrate an adamantium skull. This is how I realized the depths of Marvel's stupidity.

[r.murray]

The only good thing about Spider-Man 3 was Thomas Hayden Church's portrayal of Flint Marko/Sandman. I wish they'd dropped Venom and Goblin Junior and focused on Sandy instead.

[RichardSeebald]

What about the Flash movie? They got EVERYTHING WRONG IN THE FILM!
When Barry Allen went back in time to save his mother from dying he altered the timeline differently!
• Bruce Wayne is the one who dies in the crime ally, not his parents! And his father becomes a violent Batman and his mother becomes the Joker!
• Clark Kent was supposed to be locked up in the Russian prison lab not his cousin Supergirl!
• Wonder Woman and Aquaman went to war on one other and attacked London and flood the entire Metropolis!

[CandiceVidito]

Sewing Deadpool's mouth shut & the whole Phoenix arc in X - Men.

[dayingnightmare]

Could Jean Grey from X Men The Last Stand (12:32) kill Doctor Manhattan from Watchmen movie?

[margarethmichelina]

You forgot Superman's CGI mouth in Jostice League

[BraeMartin-swxk]

Luckily for the MCU, the real Mandarin and the Ten Rings would make their debut in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.

[nwocool]

Honorable mentioned:
1. The characters whom appeared in X-men: First Class were supposed to more look older in Apocalypse, and Dark Phoenix.

2. Havok was supposed to the younger brother of Cyclops. In the film version, Havok is the older brother of Cyclops.

3. Silver Samurai was supposed to be Harada, not the billionaire old man, Yashida.

4. MCU Flash Thompson is supposed to be Caucasion, not Indian.

5. Gorr the God Butcher supposed to have a symbiotes abilities, and its appearance supposed to look more alien than a human with pale skin.

6. Ang Lee's Hulk does not get taller the more he gets angry.
