Small fact: Smallville was originally suppose to be a show about Bruce Wayne growing up, not Clark Kent.

It shocks me to see all of these comic fans passing up something as stupid as this. I know LeHah is banned, but I still think he/she reads the forums.
Smallville was not supposed to be about Bruce Wyane growing up because he lived in a mansion on the outskirts of Gotham City. Yet, Clark Kent was found and rasied in Smallville, Kansas. Granted those that make the show are not that bright, they know if they would have dont something like that there would have been alot of bitching.
As for adaptation.
I am gonna go with a top 3.
1. Spider-Man 2 (or the series so far)
2. Sin-City
3. 300
The other super hero movies I liked, but some I wouldnt call an adaptation for the fact of allt he things that where changed or left out. I dont call the theatrical X-Men series an adaptation at all do to Bryan Singer addmiting to have never read an X-Men comic till he started the project. This is probably what makes it one of the better comic/superhero movies to date.

I don't know, I can think of a LOT of mangas that I wish were made into movies, but I can't think of any that would strike interesting to this community. Possibly maybe Battle Royale, but I didn't read the manga and the actual original creation was a novel, which was made into a movie, then the manga, so I dunno, seems a bit off the subject. :P

There will be an americanized version of BR coming out in theaters 2008. Hopefully the "hard R" rating is added and that movie gets it. I loved the novel, and the movie was great, the manga actually gave it a diffrent look. It gave more back story to alot of the characters, not so get emotionally attached, but just to see what was ticking in the back of their head while they started to "play the game". Right now I am hoping to find BR2 some where, but thats a hard one.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
