Major Batman bias in three, two, one...

01. Batman Returns
02. Batman (1989)
03. Spider-Man 2
04. Akira
05. The Dark Knight Returns Parts I + II
06. Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker
07. Spider-Man
08. Batman: Mask of the Phantasm
09. Batman Forever
10. Batman Begins

Honourable mentions to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Blade.

The only Nolan Batman film I really, really like is the first one and the only MCU films I've seen are Iron Man and Ant-Man, neither of which I feel are good enough to be in my top ten.

And I love Cronenberg but A History of Violence isn't amongst my favourite work of his. A bit melodramatic.

Of course you're not. Chris Pratt chooses the films he stars in wisely!
