    Default Which DC animated movies do you think are the best ones?

    I've only seen a handful, and I've been pretty impressed with the majority I've seen.

    Which one(s) do you feel are the best?

    Under the Red Hood is a personal favorite.

    JL: Gods and monsters, Crisis on Two Earths, and The New Frontier are good movies I wouldn't mind rewatching.

    #1. Under the Red Hood

    #2. Crisis on Two Earths

    #3. Gotham by Gaslight

    #4. Superman vs The Elite
    Like action, adventure, rogues, and outlaws? Like anti-heroes, femme fatales, mysteries and thrillers?

    I wrote a book with them. Outlaw’s Shadow: A Sherwood Noir. Robin Hood’s evil counterpart, Guy of Gisbourne, is the main character. Feel free to give it a look: https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asi...E2PKBNJFH76GQP

    All of the ones from 2013-2020 are worth watching. My favorites, in no specific order are:

    Justice League: War
    Justice League Dark
    Justice League Dark: Apocalypse War
    Justice League vs. Teen Titans
    Batman: Hush
    Batman: Under the Red Hood

    The last batch that have been released following the ending of JLD: Apocalypse War have been nothing short of disappointments, and I resent them for ending that continuity.

    We, we are completely opposite people. I found every single film of that continuity to be at least a little disappointing, and usually worse than only a little, with the sole exception of Death of Superman, and I'm extremely glad that continuity was ended. And I've liked the films that have come out since (but there's only been 3 - Deathstroke: Knights and Dragons, Superman: Man of Tomorrow, and Batman: Soul of the Dragon). But to each their own.

    The first few years worth of releases were all excellent, IMHO. The exception would the lackluster Superman/Doomsday, but they righted that wrong with the expanded 2-parter. Personal faves are the first Wonder Woman, GL: First Flight, New Frontier, both JLD's, Constantine: City of Demons.

    Once every release became yet another Batman vehicle, I lost interest. I haven't seen any released in the last 2 years (that weren't already mentioned above).

    Not counting the theatrical Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, I think that Batman: Hush was the best of the ones I saw.

    I also really like Justice League vs. The Fatal Five and Batman vs Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but I will concede that I think they're going more for fun then strong story and all that.

    Exclamation

    Oh, a tough question -

    After much consideration, these are my top five.

    1.) Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox

    2.) Batman: Under The Red Hood

    3.) All-Star Superman

    4.) Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths

    5.) Superman vs The Elite

    Honorable mentions, as I'm not sure they count because they were technically released before DC animated films were their own thing -

    Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

    Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker
