Best DCAU movies From Best to Worst


http://screencrush.com/ranking-every-dc-animated-movie/
Ummm.... Who else finds this list a little topsy-turvey?

I disagree vehemently with it.

Green Lantern: Emerald Knights (didn't see)

24. Son of Batman
23. Batman Gotham Knight
22. Batman: Bad Blood
21. Justice League: Gods and Monsters
20. Justice League: Throne of Atlantis
19. Justice League vs. Teen Titans
18. Justice League: War
17. Batman: Assault on Arkham
16. Superman: Unbound
15. Batman: The Killing Joke
14. Batman: Year One
13. Superman: Doomsday
12. Justice League: Doom
11. Justice League: The New Frontier
10. Green Lantern: First Flight
9. Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox
8. All Star Superman
7. Superman/Batman: Apocalypse
6. Batman: The Dark Knight Returns
5. Wonder Woman
4. Justice League: Crisis On Two Earths
3. Superman/Batman: Public Enemies
2. Superman vs. The Elite
1. Batman: Under the Red Hood

How does it feel to be deconstructed?

I'm not going to attempt a ranking, but that list is a big reminder to me that for every GOOD animated effort at DC there are at least two forgettable or really regrettable ones.

I certainly disagree with Batman: Year One (2011) being #1. IMO, Ben McKenzie's flat, monotone delivery significantly weakens that film. I own it, but I can barely recommend it.

I love it but it felt more like Gordon Year One.
Red Hood is also my favourite, followed by Gotham Knight and then Year One.

Most of them are very average.

I know it's not part of the current crop but Mask of the Phantasm is easily the best.

reply

Flashpoint Paradox is without a doubt the best of the lot. Can't help but compare new DC animations to that one. Most of them are mediocore, with the exception of Red Hood and TDK Returns

reply

My personal favorite is te deluxe edition of Batman: The Dark Knight Returns; I acknowledge it don't the best (that goes to Under the Red Hood), but DKR is my personal favorite.

Apart from 'All Star Superman' I don't like Superman stuff because I dislike all his enemies... Doomsday, Luthor and Brainiac the most. In All Star, Lex wasn't for once so hatefully annoying, he was actually quite interesting.
Not watched The Elite yet.

The JL movies are even worse.
The only one I really like and often rewatched was the Lego one of JL vs Bizarro League xD
The rest I watched once and never again.

My favourite Batman movies are Red Hood, Gotham Knight and Year One. And the new Crusaders one with West.
Those I rewatch sometimes. Atm I'm at my third attempt to finish Return of the Dark Knight part 1 at least once.
