Nigeria
44
While most fans anticipate the giant live-action blockbusters based on DC characters, DC has also developed a massive cult following with the animated ones. There is an abundance of films that unite famous heroes such as Batman, Superman, Green Lantern, Aquaman, Cyborg, and Wonder Woman.
Some reside in a separate continuity and others are linked to wider DC universes. With over twenty years of animated film history when it comes to DC, there are a lot of movies to choose from. These are the top ten Justice League movies, according to the ratings on IMDb.
Time flies by and DC is not slowing down in terms of its animated content. The DC Animated Movie Universe might have ended but more animated films set in different alternate universes are still being made. New movies have been released since the original list was published and as such, a new entry has been added while another had to be removed since it was no longer in the ten highest-rated films. Also as time passes, some things become outdated so there were some small changes to the entries to make them fit within the new structure.
