 Whatever Batman's brought up, there's always a good amount of debate that gets talked about when it comes to the films. Some say Tim Burton nailed the tone, while others think that Christopher Nolan's are simply masterpieces. Then there's those that say that the Batman films begin and end with the animated series. I'm not going to touch upon the cartoon, but I'm going to give you my favorite and least favorite Batman films of all time. Let's start with the worst. If I were to show a fresh-faced audience the 1966 Batman the Movie starring Adam West, I think it'd be met with mixed reactions with, what the f*** did I just watch and did he really just use shark repellent to take up that shark? It is fun to see all the villains joining forces here though with the Riddler, the Joker and the Penguin teaming up alongside the sexy Lee Merriweather as Catwoman. Plus Burt Ward is Robin tossing out cheesy puns every other sentence is a fun inclusion, but it can't match anything in the newer installments, except for maybe Bat nipples. No! This is arguably worse than the last movie on my list because it came after the brilliant Tim Burton films, yes Batman Forever was f***ing bad too, but this took it to another level. Director Joel Schumacher and George Clooney have apologized for this disaster multiple times. That doesn't change the fact that it still exists and it's a commercialized joke. Terrible Mr. Freeze puns, bad credit cards, ice skating, fighting, dinosaur sliding, Bat nipples and an all-around butchering of the source material. Make this a Bat-tastrophe! Like Cat-tastrophe, did that work? I don't f***ing care. Uma Thurman was nice to look at at least, so that's something. Joel Schumacher gets a lot of heat for Batman and Robin, but I think he should have been blasted just as hard for Batman Forever. This followed the Tim Burton Batman Returns, one of the best of the franchise if you asked me. Which you didn't, but I'm telling you anyways. Burton and Keaton both left, so what we get is a totally different atmosphere filled with neon lighting, tilted cameras, and some of the worst acting Tommy Lee Jones will ever deliver. I enjoyed Kerry's Riddler to a degree, but he was in the wrong film for that act to work and he definitely overstayed his welcome. Now Kilmer wasn't a bad Batman by any means either, but he was thrown into an unwinnable situation. I was a bit bat-hurt when I found out they were rebooting Batman from scratch, I was hoping Michael Keaton would return somehow to retain his former glory as the superior Dark Knight. You heard me. Alas, we got Christian Bale in a new trilogy that started a bit rocky for me, an over-reliance on shaky cam and a muddy looking Gotham didn't help. There are plenty of Bale supporters, but his voice as Batman was utterly ridiculous, I'm sorry. Thankfully it's much improved in the follow-up films, and we get a spastic, what the hell that was. When Batman made his big theatrical debut in 1989, people went fat shit crazy for him. Michael Keaton owned the role as both Bruce Wayne and the Dark Knight, and Tim Burton brought his signature style to the film, a style that would later be abused in many films, but it was still fresh here. The showstopper was of course Jack Nicholson playing the love-to-hate Joker, a performance that many said would never be topped. This is one of those movies that really splits its fan base right down the middle, with some people praising the follow-up and the final conclusion to the Nolan trilogy and others merely despising it. I've seen lung cancer patients with less holes, yet I still enjoyed the final chapter immensely. The party was brilliant as Bane, and the action was ramped way up from previous iterations. On certain days I could still argue that Batman Returns is the superior Batman picture. A perfect Batmobile design, a better acted Dark Knight, great supporting villains from Pfeiffer and DeVito, the best soundtrack of the series, and a really strong costume and set design. The Dark Knight. I know it's not original, I'm not really sure what you expected from me here. This is just a list of one guy's opinions. And I encourage you to do the same. I feel like it nails pretty much everything. The action is much tighter than begins. Bale calmed the f*** down on the stupid voice. The muddy look was replaced with a bluer color palette. The soundtrack is epic, and oh yes, Heath Ledger owned as the Joker. My only hang-up, and I bitched about this time and again, is replacing Katie Holmes with Maggie Gyllenhaal. If you're going to kill the goddamn character, just kill Katie Hobbs! Well there it is. That's my list. The superior list. They're yours though, and some reasons why you put them in the order you did. And don't even think about putting the mask of the phantasm on there. I f***ing warned you. This is live action people. No cartoons. Yes, it's an awesome movie, but not for this list.
