Pretty self-explanatory, want to remove some objects but the player, healthbar... What is the best way to do this?

# 
List<Actor> actors = getObjects(null);
        for (Actor obj : actors) 
        {
            if ((!obj.equals(Healthbar.class)) && (!obj.equals(Player.class)))
            {
                removeObject(obj);
        }
    }
I'm trying this code but it doesn't seem to work

You can use the removeObjects method for each of the classes that you want to be removed, everything that you want to stay just leave alone. 
// in the World subclass in the place you want to do the removing
removeObjects(getObjects(FirstClassName.class)); // one type of class to remove
removeObjects(getObjects(SecondClassName.class)); // another type of class to remove
removeObjects(getObjects(ThirdClassName.class)); // a third type of class to remove
I just saw your code. I don't think you can compare classes like that.

For your code you would probably have to do: 
List<Actor> actorsList = getObjects(null);
for (Actor actor : actorsList) if (! (actor instanceof Healthbar) && ! (actor instanceof Player)) removeObject(actor);
