And while I'm at it... Bottom 5 Marvel Studios Villains 5. Ultron 4. Justin Hammer 3. Mandarin 2. Red Skull 1. Malekith Was Malekith not portrayed well it whatever movie he was in? Just curious. I've always enjoyed Malekith in the Thor comics he's been in. He was a character in the strictest sense that he appeared in the movie, had a name, and said some lines. I honestly can't remember what he was trying to do or why. Any generic villain could have been put in his place and served the same function as Malekith did.

Oddly enough, I enjoyed Superman 4 better than #3. That's beyond odd. You may want to consult a physician.

I really enjoyed the twist IM3 gave to the Mandarin. In the comics he was yet another "yellow peril" villain with a bunch of gimmicky rings. Changing him to a manufactured "terror mastermind" was something I didn't see coming and I loved Sir Ben Kingsley's performance as "Sir Lawrence Obliviay".

My reasoning behind placing Mandarin in my bottom 5 was Marvel's backpedaling with the character. If you're going to go with that big of a twist, commit to it.

Ingestible things (I hesitate to call them "food") that I hate the most:
1- Garlic 2- Fried fish 3- Parmesan in any other form than as a honest, unmelted chunk (which I paradoxically love) 4- Bamboo shoots 5- Pretty much any type of frozen pizza with meat in it

I love me some garlic...on almost everything. 2 - The only way fish is edible. 3 - Does this include shredded from the block? 4 - I'm okay with you hating them. 5 - frozen pizza is pretty noxious.

I had to look that up on Wikipedia to see what you meant, because I've never seen the Mandarin "Hail to the King" one-shot. I would have rather they left Trevor as the "real" Mandarin. Oh well.

Friday fish fry is nearly a requirement in Wisconsin. 3 - Parmesan is delicious in any form 4 - I'm ok with both of you hating bamboo shoots as it leaves more for me. A Chinese restaurant staple along with water chestnuts. 5 - Some frozen pizzas can be edible in a pinch, but on the whole I'd rather have any other form of pizza.

DC The New Frontier 4. Solo 5. Gotham Central -M I would have a really hard time arguing with any of these. Or even the order. I will say that the Darwin Cooke issue of Solo is probably my favorite single issue of any comic in the last 15 years.

If I were going on openers I'd have included The Wild, Wild West for the animation along with the music. Same with the Rockford Files with the answering machine gag plus the music.
