Mine would go...
BATMAN: MASK OF THE PHANTASM (1993) THE DARK KNIGHT RISES (2012) THE DARK KNIGHT (2008) BATMAN BEGINS (2005) BATMAN: THE MOVIE (1966) BATMAN (1989) BATMAN RETURNS (1992) BATMAN FOREVER (1995) BATMAN & ROBIN (1997)
Those are just the theatrically released films. As far as I am concerned, Bruce Timm's incarnation is the definitive Batman. Kevin Conroy is especially the definitive Batvoice.

You know, I was really blown away by how GREAT The Dark Knight Returns was. Talk about staying true to the source! The fight between Bats and Supes at the end was everything I hoped it would be.

Focusing on just Batman and not the crossover movies or the straight to video animated features:
The Batman (2022) Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1993) Batman: The Movie (1966) Batman Begins (2005) The Dark Knight (2008) Batman Returns (1992) Batman (1989) The Dark Knight Rises (2012) Batman Forever (1995) Bat Guano Batman & Robin (1997)
If not for Nicole Kidman, Forever would be ranked under guano.

What about the 1940s serials?

All I know about them is that they were really racist, at least the first one.
