The Academy Award-winning Marvel outing, Black Panther, has been voted the greatest superhero movie of all time. And fans of Zack Snyder are not happy. In what’s sure to be a controversial list of the top 50 superhero movies ever made put together by Rolling Stone, Black Panther was found to be number one, while Zack Snyder’s Justice League has been put at number fifty. But this isn’t the reason why fans have been left shaking their heads. No, when the list was first shared Zack Snyder’s Justice League was at the tippy top, with the publication having shared the list in reverse. By mistake, presumably.[EMBED_TWITTER]https://twitter.com/UsUnitedJustice/status/1685756714874810368[/EMBED_TWITTER][EMBED_TWITTER]https://twitter.com/TheDiscFather/status/1685796141622005760[/EMBED_TWITTER][EMBED_TWITTER]https://twitter.com/Swordfish978/status/1685869743830441984[/EMBED_TWITTER][EMBED_TWITTER]https://twitter.com/ThatBatNerd/status/1685908158651187201[/EMBED_TWITTER][EMBED_TWITTER]https://twitter.com/SnyderCastle/status/1685780204508082177[/EMBED_TWITTER]While Zack Snyder's Justice League now has a very dedicated fanbase, the first ‘Top 10’ included such...questionable comic book movie efforts as 2007’s Ghost Rider, 1975’s Infra-Man, the first Thor, and 2010’s Megamind. Now that the list has been put the right way around, the actual top ten makes a lot more sense, with Black Panther leading a pack that includes the likes of Spider-Man 2, the first Superman from 1978, and Christopher Nolan’s seminal Batman movie The Dark Knight.The top ten in its entirety now reads; Black Panther (2018), Spider-Man 2 (2004), Logan (2017), Avengers: Endgame (2019), Superman (1978), Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018), The Dark Knight (2008), Thor: Ragnarok (2017), Wonder Woman (2017), and finally The Incredibles (2004).While there are arguably still some peculiar choices and placements here, these movies being placed at the top of the superhero mountain certainly makes more sense than that had been there originally. Overall, at least.RELATED: The Most Rewatchable Superhero Movies From Marvel and DC
