Post-The Batman, what do you consider the best Batman film?
 
The Batman is as close to my dream Batman movie as I've ever seen.

Having said that, The Dark Knight is a stronger overall film that gifted us one of the greatest and most iconic film performances of all time.

My head - TDK
My heart - TB

Voted with my heart.
 
Live Action - The Batman slightly edged out Begins for me.

Best overall film to release in theaters - Mask of the Phantasm, always and forever
 
The Dark Knight, The Batman was good but I won't take it over any of the Nolan trilogy
 
Why did you allow multiple votes?

It’s a tie right now between TDK and TB, with BB coming in very close to both. I have to watch TB again to really assess whether it’s better than TDK, but regardless… they’re both so damned good. Though perhaps TB wouldn’t have been possible if TDK didn’t come first. I don’t know. My rankings right now:

1. The Dark Knight/The Batman
2. Batman Begins
3. Batman ‘89
4. The Dark Knight Rises
5. Batman ‘66
6. Batman Returns
7. Batman Forever
8. Batman & Robin
9. BvS

I’ve never actually seen Mask of the Phantasm.
 
I don't know about "best" movie, but BB is my personal favorite. It really reignited Batman for me (after some of those abortions) and was a near perfect origin/first event story.
 
TB was sublime and probably in terms of character the best Batman movie yet. But simply just as a movie TDK is still top for me. Time and re-watches of TB could change that but TDK is called the GOAT by many for a reason.
 
I genuinely love them all for different reasons. We have had an embarrassment of riches as Bat-fans and I love the variety each movie offers.
 
The Dark Knight is the best film overall but The Batman is the best Batman film.

Copout answer, but that's how I feel.
 
The Dark Knight is the best Batman film, and the best film overall imo.

Batman Begins is second .

The Batman is among the best of the Batman films imo, but i'd still put a couple other Batman films before it.
