The 10 Best Superhero Movie Moments Of 2016

It's been a mixed year for superhero movies, in the critical sense. Out of the six released in 2016 (a neat two each from the three big franchises: Disney's Marvel, Warner Bros.' DC and Fox's X-Men), three have been well received while the other half have been met with various levels of critical bashing.

Suicide Squad‘s presentation of Harley Quinn – much like the film as a whole – was a very divisive one. Though she was winningly played by Margot Robbie, the dilution of her usually abusive relationship with the Joker into a PG-13 friendly quirky romance between two Hot Topic shoppers was naturally a controversial move. One element that no fan of the character could fail to love, though, is the flashback sequence which details how Batman caught Harley and stuck her in Belle Reve.

With Batman on the roof of the Jokermobile, and Harley shooting through the roof and screaming that he’s “ruining date night,” this short moment is one of the most grin-inducing of the film. Chiefly, this is because it feels like something pulled straight from Batman: The Animated Series, for which Harley was originally created.
