X2 used to be in my Top 5 comic superhero movies, but X3 pretty much scarred the series for me. So X2 might win another day after I revisit it, but today it's Spider-Man. Plus, the Spider-Man origin story is the best.

X3 ruined X-Men for you, but Spider-Man 3 didn't ruin Spidey for you? X3 is not very good, but Spidey 3 is worse. Anyway, this isn't about the third installments. X2 is better than the first Spider-Man.

I agree with JohnMason. X-3 remains one of my top 5 favorite superhero movies.

Hmmm. X2 still blurs into the X-franchise for me. As movies, they're not distinct enough. Spider-man ain't great, but it was a good reinvention. I think Spidey takes it. Maybe X2 will get better once I remember exactly what happened in it.
