This year alone will see five major studios' comic book movies released (Deadpool, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Captain America: Civil War, X-Men: Apocalypse, and Suicide Squad), ushering in an era that will see several HUGE comic-based movies being released each year from Fox, Marvel, and Warner Brothers. Eventually, Sony will get back in the game with Venom and films based off of the Valiant Entertainment line. Hell, we may FINALLY be getting the Goon movie!

But still, sometimes, fans just need to get their fix for live-action updates to their favorite comic/cartoon/video game/etc, and it's not something the studios will touch. Or, even worse, it's something they'll touch and cock it up. What's the solution for this scenario?

Fan films!

There have been a legion of fan films released featuring some of nerd culture's favorite intellectual property, some good, some bad, some actually banned by studios. Thankfully, we've culled a giant list of these films to bring your our Top 10, where you may recognize some of them, but turn a fresh pair of eyes towards others.
