I am actually a fan of Dick Tracy but the list could use Iron Man 2.

They where both fun movies IMO but don't belong anywhere near a top 25 list.

The two modern Nolan films shouldn't be on there. But the original Burton film should be.

You don't think TDK is a top 25?

No. I think the movie was terrible. Nothing worked for me.

From Bale's gravel gargling Batman Growl, the lackluster Joker, to the tediously boring story, etc.

I can go into detail, but I don't want to drag the thread off on a tangent.

A boring tedious crime drama with the Bale trying to cosplay as Batman.

I think Superman 2 should be a bit higher. Decent list, but still not that great.

Fair enough. I feel bad for you though honestly that you can't enjoy a film like that (I hope that doesn't offend you). I know everyone has different tastes though.

Don't feel bad for me. I have at least 3 good Batman films.

Batman: The Movie, Batman (1989), and Batman Returns. I'm good.

Honestly? This list sucks and that's not IGN's fault, there aren't enough good comic book films yet to make a top 25 list.

Ah OK, Nolan has been far truer to comics than Burton ever cared to be. Not to start a arguement, but it sounds like you got it in for the Nolan films. It's hard to deny them as good films. They probably are ont superhero movies though when it comes down to it.

Anyway, glad Mask of the Phantasm is on there. I think Spider-Man 2 is way too high on the list. While I do like Batman Returns, it does not belong over Batman '89.

Nah. It really is IGN's fault. Half the time they don't know what they're yammering on about.

No. He was true to one incarnation of the comics. As Burton was as well.

It's just that Burton's films are actually good. And Nolan's are terrible.

But then, he hasn't done anything good outside of Memento.

So yeah, I can easily deny them as good movies. Because they are not.
