a genuinely terrible list; affleck listed as batman but no pattinson? gal Gadot placed at all but scarjo only got an honourable mention (i dont like her but it's worth a placement at least)?? margot robbie right at the back? zendya at all for that undercooked mj?? tom holland higher than JACK NICHOLSON'S JOKER??? chris evans sneaking into the top ten??? micheal b jordon THIRD??? with that flat delivery of half his lines (his character was iconic but come on!!! and above Boseman?? ((and christopher reeves???))

i feel like someone made this on a coffee break while having only basic knowledge of any of these films.

People don’t like ScarJo for good reasons but that scene where she eats a pb&j and quietly cries in Endgame is the best acted scene in the movie, and it’s hilarious they have PAUL RUDD on this list for that movie and not her.

Affleck was much better Bruce than RPatz, while I'd say their Batmans were just about equal.

Affleck was a much different Bruce than Pattinson, not better. Affleck phoned in a typical portrayal of the playboy facade with such low energy, I was wondering where his Dunkin' was. He also had zero chemistry with Gal.

Pattinson portrayed Bruce as written in The Batman script perfectly. The acting he does in the funeral scene alone is better than 3 films worth of Affleck's Bruce.

Don't get me started on Affleck's Batman. The scripts were full of bad dialog and Snyder turned a man with a no-kill code into an AR-15 wielding killer. But what do I really think? 😁

That would have been amazing if they had Batman sipping on Dunkin throughout the movie

On a coffee break AFTER they poured & prepared the cup of coffee and BEFORE they dumped the remainder out in the breakroom sink before going back to work in their soulless cubicle life.
