I don't think most comic fans consider Wonder Woman to be in the premier league of CBM's, its good but not great.
Personally I have bigger problems with the list than their WW placing, like Homecoming being in #13 for instance.
How many great CBM´s are there?
Sorry but practically all MCU movies apart from Guardians, Iron Man, Winter Soldier and Avengers 1 (I don´t like Civil War but screw it I know poeple love that movie for some reason) don´t deserve to be in the top 20. Marvel hasn´t got a masterpiece of a movie at all. Maybe Iron Man...
Fox or other Marvel Spider Man 2, Spiderman, X-Men 2, X-Men First Class, Logan, Deadpool.
Now on DC side the only films I think one could conceivably say is better than WW Batman 89, Batman Returns, Superman 1 and 2, Watchmen, Batman Begins and Dark knight. What other DC movie could favourbly be compared to WW.
Then you have others - Incredibles, Untouchable, Chronicle, Kick Ass, and Dread. I may be forgetting something, but as far as I know these are the only critically acclaimed cult or timeless movies on the list. So I think WW is better than some of these, but to play devils advocate I will say all these movies are better than WW.
WW would be 25, but as I said I believe WW is better than ALOT of these movies INCLUDING Logan, Iron Man, Deadpool, Civil War, Spiderman, Chronicle, Batman 89, Superman 1, X2, First Class, Deadpool, Guardians, Avengers 1.
It looks like I´d rank WW about 12 or 13. I think Kick Ass and Wonder Woman are so close its hard to chose. But I think WW is definitely in the upper echelon of comic movies. The reason being there just aren´t that many outstanding comic movies. Most Marvel is beyond average. DC creates either masterpieces or polarizing movies (which I like) and Fox are just more miss than hit and then you have a few others here and there.
