Which of these selected licensed live-action feature-length 'Batman' movies is your favorite from the franchise?

Batman is one of the most well-known characters in the world and is recognized worldwide thanks to his wide portrayal in comics, TV shows, cartoons, movies, and other media that have cemented The Dark Knight's status as a pop culture icon. Batman Day 2026 celebrates the DC Comics character Batman, who debuted on March 30, 1939, in a story from the anthology comic book Detective Comics issue #27.

* The live-action Batman answer pool features only live-action Batman solo movies or those that feature a partnership or crime-fighting team from within the larger Batman character universe licensed by DC. Ideally, those that feature a multi-person Batman partnership or another established Batman-inclusive superhero team, like The Justice League, the extended Bat-Family, or the Outsiders from the DC Universe.

* A similiar existing live-action Batman movie poll suggestion exists, but is seven years old, has not been updated in the past four years and is not current. It has a dated introduction, and an incomplete answer pool that does not feature both the older Batman films and the latest installments with two more live-action D.C.Batman films in-production (its status is uncertain).

#Batman: Knightfall Part 1: Knightfall Expected 2026 1h 19m #FUTURE 

Batman: Knightfall Part 1: Knightfall will premiere at the Annecy Animation Festival in June 2026 with a Summer 2026 release expected.

The synopsis for Part 1 describes the plot as follows: "When the mysterious behemoth known only as Bane frees Batman’s entire Rogue’s Gallery from Arkham Asylum, the Caped Crusader is pushed to his mental and physical breaking point."

#Batman: Knightfall, Part 2 - Knightquest Expected 2027? #FUTURE

#Batman: Knightfall, Part 3 - KnightsEnd Expected 2028? #FUTURE 

#Batman: Knightfall (this could be possible 4th chapter created by dividing the trilogy chapters differently and expanding the depth of storytelling or a possible trilogy compilation saga title)
