50 Best-Cast Roles (and 10 Worst) in Comic Book Movies

To get the quiz down to 50 top answers I took off:

Kevin Bacon as Sebastian Shaw

Michael B Jordan as Killmonger

Will Arnett as Lego Batman

and Jessica Alba as Nancy Callahan

I was tempted to put on Chris Evans for his role in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, which was great, but it was a pretty minor role and he's already on the quiz twice.

... Brandon Routh was awesome in that movie, too.

I also wasn't sure if it would be better to do a blind list without clues for this, or like this with the yellow box. I went with this format to try and avoid some complaints about the criteria being arbitrary.

If I ever update this again Brie Larson is definitely going to make it in to the worst cast list... good grief she was awful. Actually I think I'll put her on right now and just expand it from 8 worst to 10 worst.

Note to self: if I ever update this again, be sure to include Olga Kurylenko as Taskmaster in the worst column, maybe expand to 10 worst. What were they thinking? Putting aside the big changes to the character, they cast a Ukrainian-French ex-model, known for being so phenomenally gorgeous that she made Mila Kunis look like the ugly sister in Max Payne, in a role as a hideous burn victim that stays masked in a body-concealing outfit through 98% of her screen time? And on top of that, in a movie with a bunch of non-Russian actors pretending to speak Russian, they decided that the best use of Olga, who was born in the Soviet Union, was to give her no lines? Just bizarre. Worst casting decision in the MCU since Brie Larson; and the worst waste of an actor/character's potential since Ben Kingsley in Iron Man 3.

On the other hand Florence Pugh as Yelena might deserve a spot under best.
