I'll take gleefully dumb Dick Sprang inspired fun over equally goofy but less self-aware off brand Frank Miller any day. Jim Carrey and Tommy Lee Jones are may both be downright horrible but Jesse Eisenberg's performance is very much of a piece with theirs except BvS is under the impression he's Heath goddamn Ledger.

Glad to see some affection for those three. The only one of those I outright like is The Amazing Spider-Man but there's a lot to admire in Hulk and Superman Returns even if neither works particularly well.

Oh, to answer the polls question: Batman Begins. Obviously. I don't hate BvS, I admire the big ridiculous swings it takes and the Battle of Metropolis from Bruce's perspective is somewhere in my top ten comic book movie scenes but... yeah, every time I watch that movie I like it less.

Fair enough. I have watched it only one time and I liked it tbh so gotta rewatch it one time in the future.
