5. Iron Man 3 - After the extremely successful Phase One, I expected Phase 2 to start off even better than Phase 1. Unfortunately I was wrong. I thought that we would have an awesome villain. Ben Kingsley looked like he was going to be great as the Mandarin. For obvious reasons, that never happened. Don't get me wrong it was still a great film. 8/10

4. X-Men: The Last Stand - After the fantastic X2 film, I expected a decent ending to this trilogy. Unfortunately Bryan Singer left to direct Superman Returns. There were too many characters in the film. 5/10

3. Spider-Man 3 - After Spider-Man 2, one of the best CBMs ever, I expected a brilliant conclusion to this beloved trilogy. However, Sony was pressuring Sam Raimi to include Venom. Things just went downhill from there. 7/10

2. Green Lantern - Finally a DC film that didn't include Batman or Superman! Ryan Reynolds was going to be awesome as Hal Jordon. We ended up with a terrible plot and scrip. Hector Hammerhead should have never been in this film. 6/10

1. The Dark Knight Rises - "The Epic Conclusion to the Dark Knight Legend." I too wanted an "epic" sequel to a legendary film. Instead we got a film that barely featured Batman. The ending was the worst part of it. Tom Hardy was excellent as Bane. Unfortunately his performance couldn't save the dozens of plot holes. 7/10
