Ranking Theatrical Batman Films Based On First Impressions

 DISCLAIMER: I might come back and update this post as more theatrical Batman films are released.

Seeing as I recently did a ranking for all the entries in the DCEU, I figured it made sense now to do one for Batman/ Bruce Wayne specifically, since he’s been in far more films than any other DC character… For this list specifically, I decided to draw the line at theatrically-released films only (of which there’s more than you might expect, actually). Also, like last time, this ranking is based strictly on first impressions.

With that all out of the way, let’s get going:

Loved it

1.The Batman

2.Batman Begins

3.The Dark Knight

4.Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

5.The Lego Movie

6.The Lego Batman Movie

7.Batman

8.Batman Returns

9.The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part

10.Batman: Year One

I liked it but didn’t love it

11.Teen Titans Go! To the Movies

12.Justice League (either version)

13.The Flash

Wasn’t sure how to feel about it

14.The Dark Knight Rises

15.Joker

16.Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice (either version)

Bad, but at least it’s funny

17.Batman: The Movie

18.Batman & Robin

Didn’t like it

19.Batman: The Killing Joke

20.Batman Forever

21.Suicide Squad (either version)

22.Joker: Folie a Deux

Didn’t watch it

23.DC League of Super-Pets

24.Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders

25.DC Super Heroes vs. Eagle Talon (wtf even is this?)

Well, that was fun! I am cautiously optimistic for The Batman: Part II, The Brave and the Bold, etc.

Peace!
