Added DiffLines:

* ''Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy'':
** GenderFlipped in ''Film/TheDarkKnight'': Bruce becomes the Veronica, as the rich playboy as well as a vigilante hero competing for Rachel's affections against the upstanding and morally just attorney Harvey Dent (Betty). [[spoiler: It ends badly, with both Rachel and Dent dead (the latter after becoming Two-Face), though she reveals in a letter that she chose him over Bruce.]]
** Subverted in ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises''. Bruce Wayne/Batman is attracted to both Miranda Tate (CEO of Wayne Enterprises, as well as a prim and proper society lady) and Selina Kyle (Catwoman). [[spoiler:However, Selina Kyle's poor background starts to hint she's really the Betty, and Miranda turns out to be Talia al-Ghul, Bane's ManBehindTheMan and the film's BigBad, who wants to nuke Gotham. Talia dies in a truck crash at the climax, and Bruce fakes his death and starts a new life in Europe with Selina.]]


Added DiffLines:

* ''Film/SpiderMan3'' reverses the comics' version of the characters, casting Gwen Stacy as the Veronica and Mary Jane Watson as the Betty to Peter Parker's Archie. Peter eventually chooses Gwen while under the influence of the Venom symbiote, but manages to offend and alienate ''both'' of them with how much of a douche he's become.


Added DiffLines:

* ''Film/XMenFirstClass'':
** While Raven [[UnluckyChildhoodFriend may]] or [[LikeBrotherAndSister may not]] have feelings for Charles, her attention soon turns to sensible Hank (who prefers her human form) and enigmatic Erik (who prefers her mutant form).
** And on the Charles' part, he seems to have a choice between Raven (in human form) and Moira. Note that Raven, who is the Veronica, is his childhood friend, which is normally a Betty characteristic.
