1. Batman: The Dark Knight Returns
- Release year: Part 1 was in 2012, Part 2 in 2013
The winner of the ranking is again a two-part film. Batman: The Dark Knight Returns is split into 2 films and adapts the legendary comic story of the same name by Frank Miller. It’s about an older Batman who has not fought criminals for a long time.
Meanwhile, Gotham sinks into chaos as a mutant gang plunders and kills. Bruce has had enough eventually and puts on his cape again. The film deals with Batman as a character, his role in Gotham, and what he actually represents.
On IMDb, the first part has a rating of 7.9 out of 10 based on over 66,900 reviews, and the second part reaches 8.3 out of 10 from over 60,800 ratings on IMDb.
Is there a movie missing from this list or do you have your own favorites? Feel free to let us know in the comments. After all, this is only a fraction of all DC animated films. For MeinMMO editor Nikolas Hernes, however, number 1 is among the best: Every fan of The Dark Knight should have seen one of the best Batman films, even though it never played in theaters
