1. Batman (1989)
2. Batman: Mask Of The Phantasm (1993)
3. Batman Returns (1992)
4. Batman Begins (2005)
5. Batman Forever (1995) - The only reason this one is higher than The Dark Knight is because it actually made Robin come to the screen and give him dignity

8. The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
9. Batman And Robin (1997)

That list is bizarre. Batman Forever above TDK and TDKR.

In all honesty, I thought The Dark Knight Rises was terrible. Not Batman And Robin bad but I still thought TDKR was pretty bad. The Dark Knight, again in my opinion, is overrated to death. This one I did actually like and I am glad I saw it but its fame comes from an A+ performance in a B- film. Batman Forever is more of a C film but I do rate it higher than TDK for 2 reasons:

1. Nostalgic value
2. It was one of the few adaptations of Batman to not only include Robin but actually treat him right.

"I have always valued my lifelessness."

The Dark Knight Rises was terrible


I never got the whole "TDKR" sucks argument

Whenever people try and put down the reasons why its "garbage" or one of the worst films ever despite its immense critical praise, Those reasons are usually pretty nonsensical.

Honestly, if someone can articulate a way in which they can explain why they think a critical darling like Citizen Kane or The Seventh Seal is a pile of *beep* I will listen to every word and take it all in (unless the criticisms didn't add up). To me, critical praise doesn't mean *beep*

However, I haven't seen this film in a while and I actually forgot exactly why I didn't like it. I just remember it being really dumb.

Honestly, No more so than any other film about Batman. TDKR gets alot of crap unfairly shoveled on it when its easily superior to all other superhero threequels currently (which is a tough movie in superhero franchises as I'm coming to see)
