Topher Grace’s two best film roles are:

Yeah, I mean how much pain can one mass murder cause you before you finally just end him! Seriously its the 2nd best Batman Movie I ever saw and I barley say the Dark Knight is better than it.

agreed, that movie would have been a snooze of a watch without her.

Fair point. It probably would have changed the tone of Schumacher’s Batman, but maybe Carrey’s Riddler could have still worked if he was slightly more restrained.

I will, again, say that Mask of the Phantasm is probably the best Batman movie, and Mark Hamill’s Joker is the best Joker. Truly underrated.

Nicholson captured the Englehart/Rogers “Laughing Fish” Joker perfectly (albeit 40 pounds too heavy), and was certainly not just “Nicholson in white makeup”:

Facebook Luthor is #10? Seriously? UGGHHHH

I’m always a little baffled by this take that gets thrown out a lot, that Jack Nicholson is just playing himself. Many people have a very strange idea of both who Jack Nicholson is, and the breadth of his career. It’s also the only live action representation that balances the clown and psychopath sides of the…

Am I the only one who didn’t *hate* Leto’s Joker? I thought it was, at the very least, a little interesting. For better or worse, it’s a pretty modern take on the character that at least fits the movies in which he appears.

The moment you title your movie Batman VERSUS Superman, you’re going to have to reverse-engineer it.

Well, Spacey was supposed to be Hackman’s “Greatest Criminal Mind of Our Time” Luthor, so it makes sense that he took that performance and added some extra rage and brutality to it. 

Yeah, I felt like Eisenberg went way too far into “crazed madman” since everybody was chasing Ledger’s Joker (which was the style at the time).

More Hot takes: Max Schreck is the best villain in Batman Returns.

It really couldn’t possibly have been more clear from the movie that they wanted to reimagine Luthor as a Mark Zuckerberg-type modern tech guy, and that they cast Eisenberg because he had literally just played Zuckerberg.  That kind of “write the end first and then let’s backtrack to make it sort-of make sense”…

Who Batman even fights unlike several on this list.

And when he’s not on screen, we’re thinking about him, like Harry Lime in The Third Man or the shark in Jaws.

The rest of the 60's villains deserved separate entries and higher placing, especially when you are bothering to individually rank so many irrelevant background/incidental villains. (Also, I guess the Birds of Prey movie was outside the scope of this? Black Mask and Zsaz are more traditionally Batman villains than…

All (Lego) Joker wants is for (Lego) Batman to admit, on some level, they do need each other.
