I would add the Tom Holland Spider-Man movies and the original X-Men movie, remove The Old Guard and probably The Rocketeer.


I say X-Men because up until that point, film makers and film making technology weren't really up to the challenge of taking the stories I loved and putting them in live action. Stuff before that was either lame and low-budget, literal cartoons which could be good or bad, Batman/Superman, or just comics adjacent. Batman is a non-powered hero and much of his rogues gallery is non-powered. The two 'good' pre-2000 Batman movies are both essentially a dude with gadgets fighting other dudes. Superman was a good story with good special effects for the time, but they couldn't have good 'Superman-level' action using them. So they had him reverse time by flying around the planet..? Blade is essentially a horror character who interacts with comic characters. No hints were given that Batman and Superman existed together in a meaningful way, or that Blade existed with any Marvel heroes at all. X-Men was the turning point to cinematic universes, which was a sea change at the time.

Googling around for movies I may have forgotten, I'm adding The Crow.

Hollywood has the best moral compass, because it has compassion.
