00:00 "Give 'em hell, Bat Family!"
00:02 Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the best scenes,
00:08 moments, and storylines from Justice League Crisis on Infinite Earths Part 2.
00:13 Watch out for major spoilers ahead.
00:15 "I plan to keep them that way."
00:17 Number 10. Joker's crew versus the Bat Family.
00:23 "Shoot the tower, Joker, then the whole planet dies."
00:28 "You see, that's what everybody says."
00:30 "But how am I supposed to know that's true unless I pull the trigger?"
00:34 After using a poisoned Jim Gordon to distract the Dark Knight,
00:38 the clown prince of crime launches an attack against a crucial tower in Gotham.
00:42 If Batman failed to stop Joker and his hired help from destroying the structure,
00:46 an entire world could be obliterated.
00:49 The fight seemed hopeless until Bruce got an assist from a few familiar faces.
00:53 "I told you to stay out of this."
00:56 "The hilt would have hit his head."
00:58 It was immensely satisfying to see the members of the Bat Family
01:02 from across the multiverse unite against the villainous threat.
01:05 Even though they weren't all on the same page mentally,
01:08 they were still able to fight in perfect sync.
01:10 This scene served as a great first outing for a new and battle-ready Bat Family.
01:15 "We're not killers."
01:17 "You trained us well. We know what we're doing."
01:19 Number 9. Birth of the Anti-Monitor.
01:22 "Where am I?"
01:24 "Nowhere."
01:24 "Here."
01:26 "Inside me."
01:28 Although the heroes thought that the world-destroying antimatter waves were the biggest issue,
01:36 an even bigger threat emerged in Crisis on Infinite Earths Part II.
01:40 While at Monitor's base, Psycho Pirate is suddenly teleported to a dark space.
01:45 He quickly learns that this void is home to a sinister and powerful presence.
01:49 While the entity is initially nameless,
01:51 its hatred of the Monitor leads it to adopt a fitting name.
01:54 "Not like Monitor. Nothing like him. He opposes me."
02:00 "Obviously. You're nothing like him. You're the opposite of him. You're the Anti-Monitor."
02:07 The introduction of this new antagonist was chilling yet compelling.
02:11 Without even seeing his body,
02:13 his intimidating voice suggested that he had the might to take on the heroes.
02:17 We're excited to see the Anti-Monitor step out of the shadows
02:21 and confront the heroes.
02:22 "What if you had your own universe?"
02:24 "For the people who felt whatever you feel, you would be their king."
02:33 "Their god."
02:36 Only light could harm the vicious shadow demons that were invading every reality.
02:49 Since John Stewart was a Green Lantern, he was perfectly equipped to fight them off.
02:54 Unfortunately, not even his ring had enough power to hold off the shadowy army forever.
02:59 Just when it seemed like an entire world would be doomed,
03:02 John thought of a dangerous way to keep the demons at bay.
03:05 "They're afraid. Afraid of this light."
03:08 "Look here, I'm no expert, but I think you're overcharging."
03:11 The Green Lantern was fully willing to sacrifice his life to obliterate his enemies
03:17 with a flash of green light.
03:19 Although the plan works wonders, John's ring was destroyed in the process.
03:23 By nobly sacrificing his own superpowers,
03:26 the former Green Lantern was able to save countless lives.
03:30 "Left my power ring in there. Had to make sure it'd blow. It was worth it."
03:36 We were initially worried about Dr. Fate.
03:47 When he first appeared, his vessel was locked in a chair, non-responsive,
03:51 and at the mercy of the sadistic psycho pirate.
03:54 But shortly after the villain tried to use his powers on the magical hero,
03:58 Dr. Fate revealed who was really in control.
04:01 "Did you say something? Oh, it's you. Sorry, I was worlds away.
04:09 That won't work."
04:14 The sorcerer was able to break the antagonist's weapon without leaving his chair.
04:18 Dr. Fate followed that impressive display by suiting up and holding the villain down.
04:23 By the time Psycho Pirate was begging for mercy,
04:26 we were already rooting for the magical hero.
04:28 Although Dr. Fate let the villain walk out of the room,
04:31 neither the antagonist nor the audience will forget this awesome scene.
04:35 "God, God, open this door. Get me out of here now."
04:42 "Okay."
04:42 Just when it seemed like the heroes had their shadowy enemy on the ropes,
04:58 the dark entity stepped up its game.
05:01 After the demon focused on attacking one Earth,
05:03 it was able to shapeshift into a titanic version of itself.
05:07 The dark kaiju instantly proved it could get hit by Superman's lasers and keep going.
05:12 And when it got backed into a corner, it found a way to overcome its weakness to light.
05:17 "Keep it up."
05:25 "It's growing a shell."
05:26 Although the movie ends in the middle of its debut battle, we still liked what we saw.
05:31 The shadow kaiju is practically guaranteed to be the first obstacle
05:35 the protagonists will face in part three.
05:37 We are looking forward to the movie opening
05:40 with an epic battle against a seemingly unstoppable creature.
05:43 Number 5. Wonder Woman volunteers to fight.
05:52 When an Amazon-ruled world got overrun by shadow demons,
05:56 Diana put her life on the line to assist her sisters.
05:59 "Earth-46 is an Amazon-ruled Earth, but they are not your sisters.
06:04 And that is not your mother."
06:07 "Maybe not, but they're close enough."
06:09 Wonder Woman took on legions of enemies solo without giving an inch.
06:14 Although the Monitor and the other Amazons questioned her actions,
06:17 she refused to stop fighting to save the foreign world.
06:20 "I should have known. The light of truth shall scatter the darkness."
06:24 Wonder Woman's courage and perseverance were truly inspiring.
06:29 It also helped that her fight was brought to life with fluid animation.
06:33 Sadly, Wonder Woman wasn't able to dispatch every enemy
06:36 before an antimatter wave seemingly took her out, despite its downer ending.
06:41 Diana's plotline reminded us of how dedicated the heroine is to aiding her sisters.
06:45 "You have done well."
06:51 Number 4. The Monitor takes responsibility.
06:56 "This caring has cost me much.
07:02 Why must I suffer it?"
07:04 For centuries, the Monitor was largely indifferent to the suffering of others.
07:10 He watched entire civilizations of people get destroyed without changing his expression.
07:15 But after taking care of an orphaned Supergirl, he began to value life.
07:19 We see how far the Monitor has come in a devastating scene.
07:23 "All living things in all realities are about to die, and I killed them."
07:32 "A remarkable change."
07:33 Upon seeing how much his allies were struggling to defeat the Shadow Kaiju,
07:38 he began to regret that he didn't do more to help before this point.
07:42 The remorseful Monitor proceeded to let Kara punish him for his inaction.
07:46 "I see, of course."
07:47 "You've watched billions die!"
07:51 "Yes."
07:53 It's unknown whether he'll be able to recover from the gruesome injury Supergirl inflicted on him.
07:59 No matter what happens next, we know that the Monitor finally accepted
08:04 the responsibility that his enormous power granted him.
08:06 Number 3. The Bat Family breaks the Shadow Demons.
08:10 Like Wonder Woman, the Dark Knight was prepared to take on the Shadow Demons by himself.
08:15 Batman's solo mission turned into a terrific team effort once the rest of the Bat Family arrived.
08:20 "Let there be light!"
08:21 "And there was light, and it was good."
08:28 At first, the Dark Knight was too stubborn to accept that he needed help.
08:32 The Bat Family even ended up fighting amongst themselves after
08:35 Psycho Pirate played a few mind games.
08:37 "You asked for this!"
08:38 "This is no time!"
08:43 "Oh, big man!"
08:46 But when push came to shove,
08:48 every member of the Bat Family put their differences aside to save Bruce.
08:52 Seeing them all come together as a team after they nearly tore themselves apart
08:56 felt incredibly cathartic.
08:58 Hopefully, this version of the Bat Family will continue to stand together proudly
09:02 until the end of this crossover.
09:04 "Where'd they go?"
09:04 "They're retreating."
09:06 "I don't like the look of this."
09:09 Number 2. Superman escapes the wave.
09:12 "I've got contact."
09:14 "Can you confirm Earth-18?"
09:15 "It's on the very edge of my vision, but..."
09:17 "Yes, confirmed."
09:22 A veteran Man of Steel took it upon himself to spot incoming antimatter waves
09:26 before they could wipe out planets full of people.
09:28 While on a routine scouting mission,
09:30 the destructive wave suddenly started speeding towards Superman.
09:33 "The old Kryptonian vision ain't what it used to be."
09:36 "It still gets the job done, my love."
09:39 "Now please, fall back to Earth-18."
09:42 But the Man of Steel did not panic.
09:45 Not only did Superman outspeed the wave,
09:47 he stared up at it as if he was openly challenging it to hit him.
09:51 Watching the Man of Steel look into an abyss of annihilation without blinking
09:55 was amazing.
09:56 We hope this incredible Superman gets another chance to soar
09:59 into the spotlight and the story's conclusion.

10:16 Number 1. Constantine returns.
10:20 "Nice trick."
10:24 "Got any more?"
10:25 One of the movie's shortest scenes served as an extremely satisfying chapter
10:30 in a nearly decades-long story.
10:32 After a new take on Constantine was introduced in 2017,
10:36 he joined the Justice League, saw Darkseid devastate the Earth,
10:39 and reset an entire timeline to restore the planet.
10:43 Unfortunately, the universe severely punished Constantine for messing with reality
10:47 by forcing him to watch worlds get destroyed for thousands of years.
10:51 He witnessed carnage for so long that he forgot who he was,
10:54 until Jon Stewart jogged his memory.
10:57 "What are you? What am I now?
11:00 I used to be one of the most powerful sorcerers on Earth.
11:05 Bloke name of...
11:06 John Constantine."
11:08 We were overjoyed to see Constantine finally regain his identity again.
11:16 Additionally, it was fun to see him throw around spells and insult his allies again.
11:20 Constantine's triumphant return gave us hope that the heroes might survive the crisis.
11:25 "If you're some kind of magician, why don't you just magic up something to stop him?"
11:29 "Hello. I just remembered my name. My bag of tricks is not quite up to this."
11:34 What do you want to see in the grand finale of 'The Crisis on Infinite Earths'?
11:39 Let us know in the comments below.
11:41 "You shall have it all the same. You the role to play in the crisis to come."
