Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom followed Batman begins with 27 pct votes while Daniel Craig's Casino Royale grabbed 13 per cent votes.

"Looking at our list, the winning film, Batman Begins, and indeed Casino Royale, are technically re-imaginings or 'reboots' of the series, created to refresh the story line using the same characters, but with a new look and style," he added.

The top five best prequels are:

1. Batman Begins - 48 per cent
2. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom-27 percent
3. Casino Royale - 13 per cent
4. Red Dragon - 8 per cent
5. Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith - 4 per cent
