Because they have problems, they are human. Most of the TKers in the MU are mutants, feared and hunted just because of who they are.

Don't get me wrong, I know they are powerful in the context of us but this isn't in that context, it's against other superhumans. Marvel's characters are just more relatable and human (obviously considering 3 of the big JL characters aren't). I mean, I respect Flash and Green Arrow, they are human (although the faster than anyone Flash is a bit much still).

Trust me, not much of a fan of Tony Stark or Thor either. Like I say, big X-men fan. 

Generally, most people like comics to remain comics.
Batman is really an exception, stronger and deeper characters made it enjoyable as a movie too, also because actors themselves are able to show better their talent with batman characters. Not even Batman is perfect, though, the first TV series was so trash to become unintentionally comical. Anyway, not even Batman is perfect, though: TV Batman was trash for many other reasons too, but Batman is at risk whenever Robin appears, he's quintessentially trash.

But DC movies ( Batman, Superman, and probably the next Suicide Squad and Batmanvs Superman) are far much better than Marvel Studio movies, quality > sales, Marvel movies look like something made for childrens, it's not the same level of ambition

Batman's success as a more serious film kinda altered their mindset and can make adapting more outlandish and supernatural characters a challenge. Like others said, their animated stuff blows the competition out of the water and that's more of the tone that Marvel emulated with their live action stuff. But now with their own persistent universe and production lineup started via Man of Steel and Dawn of Justice, they could be on track to catch up. There's no guarantee of success and you have to wonder if the market will stop caring soon, but if there's a bright side maybe that more serious tone will help it feel fresher.

Btw I don't think Watchmen gets enough credit. Tons of craft and a commedable effort to adapt.

Are you referring the the 4 movie? Probably because someone made a movie to keep a license - not because they had a good idea.

The buzz on Suicide Squad is, well, not good from what I hear. And even-though most everyone is ugh, Ben Aflik, yet the trailers and stuff for Batman vs Superman look promising. Plus they are already marketing the hell out of both movies.

Because most of those films aren't part of the DC universe? they are part of the vertigo line of independant titles.

Where did you hear that about Suicide Squad. But yes, BvS looks amazing so far.

Oh, gosh, from like most of my friends that have already seen the trailer, the buzz on Jared Leto's 'Marylyn Manson' character.  They are saying the Suicide Squad looks like some of the worst things they have ever seen (and yes, they have seen the new Fantastic Four trailer.)  You have his fans/press agent/mom saying ‘he is a talented actor, give him a chance.’  But that only goes so far.

And that terrible picture of the 'joker' they are putting everywhere.  It's disgusting, and not in a cool way.  Just in a 'go away forever' kind of way.

Reminds me how Tracey Ullman ruined her career in the USA with this horrible add with her having a tattooed tongue – that was plastered EVERYWHERE for months.  It left you wanting to never ever see anything about her again.  Killed her specials and shows here. Haven't seen her in anything here since and I used to really like her.

I do see she is still doing stuff in the UK.

I just had a crazy revelation! Kingdom Come is Civil War! I was reading it tonight and I was like "Holy Shit!"

-A Super Hero tragedy that is caused by recklessness
-Teams of heroes fighting each other
-Heroes allying themselves with villains
-a super prison with superhero wardens
-Captain America dies (he and a lot of Marvel heroes are hidden in the final tragic battle

Marvel STOLE their biggest storyline in decades!

First let them start on a fair note to judge at all. With Green Lantern as just the single example, No I don;t think so. Marvel is not getting any better with AoU as it did much below Avengers 1 as opposed to what was expected.
