These I can call my favourite 10, but 4 some might not call a superhero movie (Robocop, Blade, Flash Gordon, and Condorman), so I have provided 4 extras that could qualify. The list could easily change. Also this is live-action only, so no Batman: The Mask of Phantasm.

Robocop
Batman Begins
Deadpool
The Avengers
Spiderman
Blade
Batman (1966)
X-Men
Flash Gordon
Condorman

Iron Man 3
Iron Man
Tankgirl
The Crow

I love The Incredibles! It has everything that we love about the genre (tons of fun, super-heroes themselves and their costumes, action scenes, villains) and it is a great movie regardless of genre, the characters and history are so amazing, script is amazing, the movie never stops to delight and amaze me. Perfect movie in my opinion, top 3 super hero movies and my favorite Pixar movie. And one of the things that I love the most about the genre is seeing normal people, with problems of normal people, that happen to have superpowers. They have to struggle balance between the two identities, and also face many moral dilems and doubts about their super-powers. Really, there are so many great situations, toughtful situations, that you can build from this starting point, it is nearly unlimited, and it is at least more than half of the genre's appeal for me. And it is why I also like very much the Spiderman movies starred by Tobey Maguire. And it is also why I am reading so much the Power Pack comics. Search Power Pack in Wikipedia and read about them, please. They are a group of kids with super-powers, who have to face the consequentes of it so young. And I love the concept of kids or teenagers super-heroes.

What I am saying is that it is not because super-hero movies are often dumb, mindless and superficial action blockbuster flicks, that super-heroes are this way exactly. There are so many comics and animated TV series, like the DCAU, that prove how rich and fascinating super-heroes are. They don't need to be treated how theyaare often treated in movies. This only show how many of these people who make super-heroes movies only want easy money with famous characters without paying too much effort in making a great movie.
