So, just finished the second part of "The Dark Knight Returns", and as usual with Bruce Timm, they just nail it perfectly. I still have a problem with Robocop voicing Batman (seriously why not bring back Kevin Conroy who is the definitive Batman), but Michael Emerson as Joker just nails it and think he's a better match for this material than the legendary Mark Hamill (a hell of a compliment). The Joker is incredibly disturbing and violent in this, giving Ledger somewhat a run for his money. Superman vs Batman was great as well, and think it was a pretty much perfect adaptation of the graphic novel.

With that said, I'm going back and ranking the films (and I'm combining The Dark Knight Returns). You don't have to rank them all, just the ones you've seen.

1) The Dark Knight
2) The Dark Knight Rises
3) Mask of the Phantasm
4) Batman Begins
5) The Dark Knight Returns
6) Year One
7) Under the Red Hood
8) Return of the Joker
9) Batman
10) Batman Returns
11) Batman (1960s)
12) Batman Forever
13) Batman and Robin

If I could, those last two should be much farther away than the rest. But I would have to extend the post all the way to Pluto.
