a lot of folks mentioned these already, and I'm not sure where the cut-off for "modern age" is, but: Ghost World, Road To Perdition, American Splendor, and Blade should have an appearance instead of some of those "F"s at the bottom of the list.
Great list, though! I don't think that Dark Knight is the best comic-based movie in recent memory (I'd give that honor to Ghost World), but I can see why so many of the masses love it.
I'm glad to see that someone else likes The Spirit. I think that is a much malgned movie!
Looks like 2008 was the year of the comic-book movie

"Please be good. Please be good. Please be good. "
I'd even go for "OK"...just not bad!
