Best comic book movie moments: 24. Meow
Comic book movie: Batman Returns
Batman and Penguin were meeting for the first time. Their conversation was abruptly interrupted by a mysterious backflipping woman. She approaches them both, stops, seductively says, “Meow” and the building she exited explodes. All Batman and Penguin could do was stare in amazement after what they just saw.
Catwoman made her introduction like none other. Only Michelle Pfeiffer could pull off the look and meow at the end. The backflip into the meow made this look even more tantalizing. She left a lasting impression on everyone in less than 30 seconds. Who else can boast this?
Best comic book movie moments: 23. We are Groot
Comic book movie: Guardians of the Galaxy
There was a lot going on that made this scene beautiful. Of course, there’s Groot letting out a bunch of firefly-like orbs into the air. It made everyone on-camera look out in awe. A distraction as he wraps his teammates inside of himself to protect them from the crash. Rocket tears up and asks not to do this because Groot would die. Groot wipes the single tear from his best friend’s face and says, “We are Groot.” Trust this writer when he says there wasn’t a dry eye in the entire theater.
