6. Thor
7. Super 8
8. Green Lantern
9. X-Men: First Class
10. The Muppets

As I see it, of these, only "Super 8" was a film developed from an original idea with film as the originally intended medium.

Just saying ...
So are you arguing pirating causes the film industry from being original? The film industry hasn't been original long before the internet was even around. I think the majority of movies and plots were derived from books.
