Best Batman Movie

[Luna]

Dark Knight and Mask of Phantasm > Batman Begins > Michael Keaton's Batman movies > Val Kilmer's Batman movie > George Cloony's Batman movie.

The Dark Knight, obviously, because it's fucking UH-MAH-ZING. I like Begins, but it's probably the weakest of all of Nolan's films - although that isn't saying much, because they're all fucking brilliant. Nolan is probably one of the best filmmakers, full stop.

But Jesus, TDK wins on the fucking interrogation scene alone.

And Dark Knight is just an improvement on Begins. The only things I can say against it is the "fight" with Batman and Joker at the end was pretty lame.

I agree it's not particularly memorable, but I do still like it. I think it illustrates the point nicely that when you get down to it and end the whole battle-of-wits, what you're left with is two guys trying to smack each other about in a last-ditch effort to win.

By that point I didn't really feel like I needed to see them do anything particularly elaborate.

Batman begins is the best? Excuse me?

So yes, up untill now I will say The Dark Knight is the best one. By no means a perfect movie, but it is the best executed Batman movie up untill now. Though the Dark Knight Rises is looking fantastic.

There are these things called 'opinions', you know; you should read up on them.

OT: Much like picking my favourite Bond, I don't think I could because my favourites are all good for different reasons.

I know this doesn't really count, but in terms of plot, I thought that Arkham City was one of the best Batman stories in recent memory, and showed a wonderfully dark, almost sociopathic side to Batman's character (I think it was the first time I'd seen Batman like that since the 'I'm counting on it' scene in TDK) and the final scene after Bats defeats the Joker was strangely powerful to me.

Yeah it's not like my post isn't MY opinion or anything. And personally I thought they jammed too much into Arkham City without giving everything the time it needs. And all this time, hours of cinematics and dialogue about how important the cure is, and the Joker just accidentally breaks it. Oops, oh well.

Yeah the difference is you used your opinion to insult everyone who thought differently and generally sound about as up your own arse as it's possible to be through text alone.

Arkham City was cluttered at times, granted, but he didn't accidentally break the cure. He broke it attacking Batman to try and get it, which set up for the reveal

Spoiler

that Batman would have given it to the Joker anyway. It was a great way of laying out their dynamic as was the following scene where Batman carries him out to the police.

How the fuck is:

*Quote I agree with*

"Using my opinion to insult everyone who thought differently and generally sound about as up your own arse as it's possible to be trough text alone."

How about you actually read my post next time and not do the exact thing you accuse the person you accuse of doing.

Because 'the best' here equates to your favourite; there is no actual best Batman film. Therefore you saying 'BB is the best? HURR DURR WUT?' is essentially telling other people, not that you disagree with them, but that their opinion is wrong and you have the right one.

Again, in a subject where there is no right answer. Maybe it wasn't your intention, but it makes you come across as immensely pompous and arrogant.
