Best comic book movie moments: 38. But he wasn’t your daddy
Comic book movie: Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2
A lot of times we get caught up with the comedic parts of Guardians of the Galaxy. Understandably so since there are a lot of them. Nonetheless, we shouldn’t forget how emotional it was as well. Among them was one of Yondu’s last moments.
We knew Yondu loved Star-Lord. What we found out is how he looked at him. Finding out why he hid Peter from his father and that he looked at him like a son was heartwarming. The audience knew his death was coming, but it didn’t take away from what we witnessed. It also made the Mary Poppins comment more than just a funny line.
Best comic book movie moments: 37. Batman vs goons
Comic book movie: Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice
We’ve seen Batman be merciless before, but not like this. Batman beat Lex Luthor’s henchmen in ways that made the audience cringe. This was more than just an action sequence. Albeit, a good one. This showed the world why we needed this new Batman.
Ben Affleck’s Batman was a Dark Knight that simply had enough. It appears that he was a little more lenient on his no kill rule. It was shocking to say the least, but that’s why it was so great. No one saw it coming. It’s reasons like this that the Snyderverse should be restored. There’s so much left for Ben Affleck’s Batman to do.
