You know, as bad as the Schuemacher are, they did have a certain sense of flair that is neat, like how Gotham City looks like I imagine the Roman Empire would look if they lasted to today. Plus they did some aspects of the comics right like Mr. Freeze when he was imprisoned and made a dancing ballerina out of things he had in his cell.

not that you asked me for my never to be humble opinion....but I like the latest ones because they are very well done... I enjoy the old ones too but not as much as I like Nolan ones... I lost interest in them when George Clooney had nipples on the bat suit...

I really like the newer ones too but honestly I can't remember the older versions so can't really say for sure which is better. Can you believe I fell asleep trying to watch it for the second time? It's as if it was boring or something! I really am turning into a grandma.

When it comes to the two Burton Batman movies and the two Schumacher movies I can't help but see they're more or less the same beasts, just with different aesthetic designs, but both have the same basic flaws in all of them. The focus on stunt casting big name actors as the villains was a problem throughout all four movies and some basic story structure problems were all issues that didn't really come up as much with the Nolan movies, so I think that's why those three are so often regarded as the best of them all. |

The only slight issue I have with the success of Nolan's trilogy is that the execs now feel that other superheroes need to be dark and gritty to be successful. I'm not on board with a dark and gritty Superman movie. I'm not excited for Man of Steel and I'm most likely going to just pass it up completely.

I don't think superheroes need to be dark and gritty to be sucessful, I think if someone see's a Batman movie is coming out they are going to see it regardless. Do you know how many comic nerds there are out there? Like zillions.

It's a pretty weak criticism I admit, and to be fair to Nolan, he really did throw a lot of shoutouts to some of the past Batman comicbooks in The Dark Knight Returns so I think I'm just talking out my ass, making controversy for the sake of making controversy. Also, no conversation about which Batman movie is the best would be complete without mention of the best Batman movie |
