Batman, James Bond, and Star Trek all have at least three things in common. They've all been around for decades, their movie franchises were all rebooted in the '00s and before that, they had incarnations that ran for four installments each, mostly in the '90s (I'm not going to let technicalities get in the way of this).

Batman had the Burton/Schumacher films, James Bond starred Pierce Brosnan, and the Star Trek films had been handed over to TNG.

Which come out on top? Let's see how the four movies in these three series compare to each other, one by one.
 
GoldenEye is still one of the best Bond films and still fun to watch. Generations isn't great, but it is underrated. Batman, great theme music aside, is probably a bit overrated.
 
I'm not a fan of the Burton films and Generations was disappointing. Goldeneye is one of my favourite Bond films so this one was easy.
 
GoldenEye > Generations > Batman

GoldenEye is one of my favorite Bond films and I love Generations more than most people. I honestly don't like Batman one way or the other.
 
Out of these three, I'd say Goldeneye. But I'd respectfully say that the poll is misconceived. Batman came out in 1989 and was up against Licence to Kill and STV: TFF that summer. Out of those three, I'd vote for Batman.

Goldeneye was released the same year as Batman Forever and some time after Generations. Surely that's the way your competitors should be organised?
 
I fudged it a little on purpose. The reason why is what I said upthread:

[Prior to rebooting] they had incarnations that ran for four installments each, mostly in the '90s (I'm not going to let technicalities get in the way of this).

Batman had the Burton/Schumacher films, James Bond starred Pierce Brosnan, and the Star Trek films had been handed over to TNG.

If I went strictly by release dates, I'd run out of Batman midway through. I want to keep everything three-way.

I voted Goldeneye.
