Loving Rupert Grint
okay, so this thread's been dead for a long time, but I thought I'd share my opinion after four years. And I know I'm a year late on this, but everyone says Dark Knight is the greatest superhero movie of all time. but I find this to be overexagerated. Dark Knight was very enjoyable. I do think it's the best Batman movie out there, but even with that said, I think it's overrated. sure, Heath Ledger was amazing as the joker, but I think that's the only thing that really made it a good movie.
without that, I would've found it too boring to watch. In my opinion, I still say Spider-Man 2 is the best superhero movie out there, mostly because it's a fun watch, and has both character and story development (unlike the third in that trilogy.) and I find I can watch this movie over and over again and still enjoy it. Dark Knight, on the other hand, was not much of a popcorn movie, due to it's complexity and dark moments.
I've seen Dark Knight a few times that summer, and it still didn't intrigue me like Spider-Man 2 or even Spider-Man 1 do. I think that the only reason it was really hyped up was due to Heath Ledger's death a few months prior. (which is something I'm sad to say.) but truth is, I was more entertained by Iron Man that summer than I was the Dark Knight. I mean, Iron Man was great and I found as entertaining as the first Spider-Man was. It was simple, but had great character development and action sequences. so my opinion: Spider-Man 2 is still my favorite superhero movie. (Not that I didn't like Dark Knight, of course.)
so, don't hate me for it. just my opinion.
