Comic Book Movie Fans Try To Name The Best DC Movie BEFORE The Dark Knight

The Flash's positive reviews, which have led many to compare the 2023 movie to The Dark Knight, motivate fans to discuss which is the best DC movie that came before Christopher Nolan's 2008 phenomenon. Due to its critical and commercial success, its impact on the superhero genre, and Heath Ledger's unforgettable performance as the Joker, The Dark Knight continues to be the point of comparison for superhero movies to this day. Every time a new DC film is released, the search for the title of "best DC movie since The Dark Knight" returns.
However, few comparisons between The Dark Knight and the DC movies that came before it have been made. Reddit user thePHEnomIShere sets out to fix that, and other Reddit users come up with their candidates. Unlike with recent releases, DC fans seem to agree on a couple of pre-Nolan movies that are as good as The Dark Knight. Read the responses below:
Including movies like A History of Violence and V for Vendetta is valid in this discussion, as they are live-action adaptations of comic books and graphic novels published by DC, only separate from the mainstream DC universe commonly associated with superheroes like Batman, Superman, and the Justice League. Still, it's evident that Batman and Superman led in popularity long before The Dark Knight. In order to break the tie between Richard Donner's Superman and Tim Burton's Batman, however, it's necessary to take into account official reviews, audience reception, box office, and their overall impact on the comic book movie landscape.
