Blade

Crow

Dark Knight

Iron Man

Sin City

Spider-Man

Superman

If I had to make a list of movies it wouldn't be all that long. For the most part I've enjoyed most comic book/superhero related movies. Catwoman and Barb Wire are the only two that immediately come to mind as movies I just did not like at all.

I know I'm in the minority, but I loved Superman III. I almost put it in Tier I.

Mystery Men.

 

Head and shoulders above everything before or since.

 

...and I'm only joking a bit. This one really deserves to be somewhere in the top ten.

I never understood people who did not like/get the Nolan Batvoice thing. That came from the Batman TaS. Conroy used two very distinct voices for Bruce Wayne and Batman. Makes complete sense. I mean Bruce Wayne is like one of the most well known people in the country. If he walks into the police department and says Ok Jim whats the problem, the first response will be, Bruce? Bale, as awesome an actor as he is, is not a voice actor so he uses the gravely bat voice to try and do two distinct voices. Granted by the time TDKR comes around basically everyone knows who Batman is. So yea could they have redubbed batman's lines with a second voice, sure but whatever. In accordance, American voice talent, Jim Feldman offered, "Kevin Conroy really hits it out of the park. He definitely gives the impression that Bruce Wayne and Batman are 2 different people... and it doesn't even sound forced."

 

Please do not compare Batman: TAS to any of the Nolan movies. I really liked Batman Begins, but IMHO Batman: TAS is the best screen presentation of the character EVER.

 

This boggles my mind.

 

Those cartoons are unwatchable and Dark Knight is impossibly good.

 

Seriously, Luke Skywalker vs. Heath Ledger?

Hamill played the Joker. Ledger played a character calling himself the Joker that had little to nothing to do with the character.

 

It's pretty obvious from reading that other dude's posts he doesn't really like "Batman", he just likes the movie version. Nothing wrong with that really (shrug)

Thank god a decent amount of you are now including Man of Steel in your top 10.

 

I dont think I can have a civil conversation anymore with anyone who doesn't think MOS isn't the best Superman movie of all time.

 

Movie was freakin EPIC!

That's just...insane.

 

Mark Hamill is a sub-average actor, at best. He is the worst thing in Star Wars, and there's a reason his career went nowhere except Z-list movies and voice work for kid's cartoons--he's a hack.

 

Heath Ledger was a talent on par with Brando and DeNiro.

 

His performance in Dark Knight is one of the most amazing pieces of art in the history of mankind.

 

The look on his face at the end of the movie when he realizes neither boat will destroy the other is worth 1000 times more than Hamill's entire career.

 

I remain,

Stunned

What makes you think I don't like "Batman?"

 

I think that the character is fantastic when done right.

 

Nolan's movies do the character better than any other incarnation by a landslide.

 

I like Adams' Batman and the 4 issues Mazzucchelli did. The rest of the comics are mostly drek.

Ledger has about 10 minutes of screentime too, not enough to put him above Hamill

 

 

great performance but Hamill was the Joker in the Batman i saw as a child

 

Watched 5 seconds of your posted video. It omits the first scene at the bank, so I can already declare that it is totally stupid.

 

Ledger has much more than 10 minutes of screen time.

 

And 2 seconds of Ledger >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>20 years of Hamill.

 

Hamill was the Joker you saw as a child? So?

 

Are you saying that your appreciation of art hasn't advanced since then?

:screwy:

 

Couldn't even be bothered to type a single word, huh?

 

What exactly did you think you were contributing when you posted the "screwy" smilie?

 

Posts like yours add nothing.

 

If I was a better person, I probably would have explained this in a friendlier way, but don't let my shortcomings prevent you from thinking about my message.

The character called Batman portrayed in the Nolan movies ( aside from quite a bit of the first one in tone ) is not really the one portrayed in the comics. If the movie version is more preferable to you, than I have to logically assume you're not a fan of the comic book character.

 

Same with the Joker. Ledger was a good actor ( though you putting him on the same level as De Niro or Brando is nothing but hyperbole ), and he created an interesting character...but it was not The Joker.

 

This is similar to people in other threads saying they finally got Superman "right". Really?
