Christopher Nolan is praised for changing the superhero movie landscape for his dark and gritty Batman reboot. The Russo Brothers are worshipped for safely bringing home the Infinity Saga without a hitch. Matthew Vaughn has had as much of an impact on superhero movies as those directors, but he doesn't get half the amount of credit.

Vaughn made Kick-Ass, an R-rated satire, long before Deadpool was in production, and he made X-Men great again with First Class. But all of that talent didn't come from anywhere, as he was influenced by some classic movies. Vaughn submitted his list of 10 favorite movies in a Sight & Sound poll, reported by Collider. Surprisingly, the list of movies is fairly generic, and his personal favorites aren't all that different from most "greatest of all time" lists.
