(2018 was a very good year for the genre.)īefore we dive in to the updated list, some criteria. Meanwhile, this latest list, updated after just a year of new films, boasts two new entries in the top 3 and two more in the top 20. Cinematic recency bias can only do so much, and the competition is stiff. It would be an unusual, near unprecedented event for our Best westerns, noirs or even science fiction movies to suddenly have a new movie appear in the top 10. It turns out it’s much easier to argue for or against a top 10 film’s exact placement (and frankly, compelling arguments could be made for almost any of our top 5 as deserving the #1 position), than weighing the relative “merits” of Masters of the Universe, Swamp Thing and Elektra.īut that Golden Age mentioned above? That also means this list is rapidly evolving due to the flood of new films. In fact, the real challenge was choosing amongst the dreck (some of it beloved dreck!) that would fill out the bottom half. When we first compiled this list a few years ago, the pickings got slim after 40. As a result, while curating a 100 Best Westerns of All Time or 100 Best Documentaries of All Time list requires the exclusion of arguably good films to select the best 100. Though superhero comic books may have started to make a dint in popular culture 75 years ago (give or take), technology only crossed over from hindrance to enabling force in the last 20 years or so. The niche just lacks the pedigree of its fellow movie genres.
There’s no real contradiction at play here. Second, it’s still fair to say there are plenty of superhero films are not that good. First, this is the Golden Age for such films, a decade where technology, long-unrequited fandom and surging popular awareness have all combined to thrill moviegoers and make Hollywood billions of dollars. While mocked-up interactions between the two characters are fun, the trailer also manages to pull together scenes from across the two contrasting titles in a way that just about maintains a level of believable continuity.Two things quickly become evident when putting together a list of the 100 Best Superhero Movies of All Time. While footage of Carrey's villain donning green spandex throughout the edited clip offers a stark difference to the gritty tone that Matt Reeves' upcoming take on the franchise appears to be moving toward, the comedian's intermittent vocal lines in the clip, along with the character's range of quirky and absurd outbursts surprisingly transition over well.Ĭredit has to be given to Highton's edits across the clip, which nicely bring together scenes from both films to produce "call and response" moments between Pattinson's Batman and Carey's Riddler.
8tu0d5OnZO- Matthew Highton January 9, 2022 I put Jim Carrey's Riddler into the new Batman trailer. The impressive and amusing edit pieces together footage from the official trailer for the film and appearances from Jim Carrey's Riddler in Batman Forever.
