As i looked over my enormous movie collection, i spotted my batman movies. Then it got me thinkin' Who was the best? Who was the worst? See my ratings below.
1. Heath Ledger's Joker
Dark, michevieous, creepy and just damn good acting won the late Heath Ledger a best supporting role for his portrayal of the villianous joker. He was one of the few characters in the movie where you loved him, but you wanted him to die. In the best scene of the whole movie that frankly pissed me off, the Joker is tossed over the side of a building where he laughs manicially before Batman saves him! Why the hell would you save him, damnmit?! Oh well, Heath is the best.
A+
2. Danny Devito's Penguin
When i watch this, i tend to forget thats actually Danny playing the penguin. He's creepy, psychotic and very memorable. It was disturbing and entertaining to watch the Penguin's final moments in Batman Returns
A+
3. Cillian Murphy-Scarecrow
While not as creepy as the ones listed before him, Cillian is as smart as Danny and Heath, playing the villian that seems way too overconfident and likes the 'mind's power over the body'
A
4. Liam Neeson-Henri Ducard
While befriending Bruce Wayne and training him to be Batman, Liam Neeson has always had that 'father' feeling. But when he turns on Bruce, that's when he gives a very good performance as the worthy villain.
A-
5.Jim Carey-Riddler
Now you're probably thinking, 'WHAT? JIM CAREY?!' But hey, his campy, crazy performance was hilarious and for me it was memorable. All I have to say is JOYGASM!
A-
6. Aaron Echart-Two Face
Not too much screen time, and when he did, he was mildly evil and misguided, Aaron Echart really wasn't the villain, just a man who lost his way. But he did far better than the people that come next.
B
7. Jack Nicholson-Joker
Over the top, and at times he could be funny, but not scary or evil enough, Jack didn't strike me as the villain type.
C+
8. Michelle Pfeiffer-Catwoman
Apart from looking very attractive in the poorly made suit, Michelle really wasnt too much of a villain for me. Six Seven, this isn't Heaven.
C+
9. Tommy Lee Jones-Two Face
Way, way, way, way too over the top for my taste and kinda campy too.
C
10. Uma Thurman
Well, she did look sexxy a few times, but seriousy, white trash trying to seduce Batman and Robin and to top it off, a cat fight with Batgirl in the end?
And I said, CURSES!
C-
11. That guy who played Bane
Drawn in veins, bad make up and a Mexican macho wresting mask really do intimidate me.
12. Arnold Schwarzenegger-Mr Freeze
*Sigh* What can one say about this travesty? OH I KNOW!
No matter what they tell ya, its always the size of your gun that counts...or something like that.
F-
Well, that's my opinion.
