Interested in anything like the above which is already released on DVD 
Oh and for the record "Batman & Robin" is as shite today as it was when first released

I love Jackson's version of King Kong. I hate it when people bitch about the amount of time. Such a polished and worth remake. Great acting, suspense, and heart to the film. Avatar is really good. Watchmen is pretty good for the most part; but the acting could be better. Sam Raimi's Darkman is an interesting film. If you liked the X-Men film series, you'll love First Class.
Re: Recommended Superhero / Monster Movies?
Everyone talks about the dark knight trilogy as though it's some kind of "dark twist" on the hero story.
This personally pisses me off.
If you want the perfect, the all time perfect superhero watch "Punisher:War-Zone" That's the 2008 one with Ray Stevenson. Fucking immense.
If you're looking for something else in that vein try Spawn, it's shit really, but a cool concept that is somewhat borrowed from the works of C.S. Lewis (maybe).
Seriously though Punisher:War-Zone is the perfect hero flick

Also if you get the chance at some point take a look at the new "dredd" movie. It's like a less violent but better written punisher.
Frank Castle, the "Hero" of the punisher series, is a card carrying psychopath. Dredd is too of course, but he's more limited being in law enforcement and all.

Definitely Avengers Assemble, and you can easily watch it without seeing all the tie in films as well. I'd also echo the Watchman and Avatar suggestions, I really liked them. Sin City is worth a watch as well
Re: Recommended Superhero / Monster Movies?
Where were on the subject just saw this 10min long "Punisher" short fan made movie. The fans who made the movie are Thomas Jane and Ron Pearlman it's quite good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWpK0wsnitc
