well check this out

1. Batman Begins
2. Mr. & Mrs. Smith
3. Madagascar
4. Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith
5. The Longest Yard
6. The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl in 3-D
7. The Perfect Man

9. The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
10. The Honeymooners

Episode 3 was polished but just ended up being a bit too formulaic and underwhelming. No characters particularly captured my imagination and the fights were too mediocre. All in all, when it wasn't taking itself too seriously, sacrifcing the action and splendour for the "plot", it was fun

Understand this..

Bash members again YOU will be banned.

HAH....windancer just understood you, didn't he 😛

I enjoyed both. Ep III had more emotion but Batman was a more well done better movie.

Uhhh..yeah, it does? It's not a "poll" if people can't chose, and I'll modify threads in my jurisdiction as I see fit.

Nice sig.

I saw Batman Begins again yesterday, and it is a really great movie. However there is one flaw in the film that might ruin the whole thing for some. The camera during the fight sequences was totally wack. There were too many close ups, quick cuts, and it would focus on the wrong angel. The fights did however, have a raw and visceral feel to them. All in all, Episode 3 wins by a bare margin, and I will be buying both of these films on DVD.

I didn't like the camera work neither..but I'd still go with BB over E3

Its going to have to improve its BO numbers fast though, or risk getting crushed by War of the Worlds

It'll get crushed by "War of the Worlds", regardless. I still think it'll be the highest grossing Batman film, as it stands.

As for the camera angles, the fight scenes in particular, it stands to reason. They were ninjas, dressed the same, and mysterious/covert by nature. I think the camerawork was deliberate. Fight scenes are so cliche as it is, so I appreciate it having been filmed "slow".

Hope you like both of them 🙂

I did actually. 🙂 I finally got to see a star wars movie since Empire that was well done and finally got to see a good Batman movie as well. 💃 That being said,I definetely liked Batman Begins better.George Lucas should be strung up and hung for not including a young Han Solo in the film. 😠 He sold out the fans.He included a young Grand Moff Tarkin so there was no excuse whatsoever to not include a young Han Solo as well.He could easily have included him.Batman Begins was much better.Even though I dont think the last Star wars movie was crap like the last 3 prior to it,Lucas obviously lost his magic touch for making great Star Wars films after Empire.It just doesnt have the same magic he had with those two films.That being said,Return Of the sith,I might see one more time since I actually liked it but Batman Begins I will see several times.

What's the point in including Han Solo? He's just a smuggler. On top of that, "selling out" the fans? Lucas has been a sellout for the better part of two decades, now.

Glad to read you liked it! 😄

I also agree with your comment regarding Han Solo. I mean Lucas throws in that idiotic character of Jar-Jar into all the new trilogy. What the heck? Why not a young Han? I won't comment of Episode III or else a fanboy fight will break out. And we're trying to avoid that. 😉

Tim Burtons Batman movies sucked and were nothing but horrible. They were not at all magical movies like Superman one and two were.

"Batman" isn't a "magical" character. Tim Burton gets waaaaaay too much undue flak. He didn't write the screenplays, he only directed what he was given. Blame the casting director or screenwriters.

Actually I liked the Ninja scenes, and could understand why he did it that way for those, but there some sequences where the characters moved way too fast.

I have to vote... Batman!

Even though I enjoyed the hell outta Star Wars, I just don't think it's as good a film as Batman. I did really enjoy Star Wars. But part of the reason I enjoyed it so much is because it is Star Wars. Judging them as films, Batman tops Star Wars easily.

Batman has already been released and compared to Star Wars... It is SHIT!

Episode 3 has the second biggest Weekend money ranking in $108,435,841 within a period of three day, coming second to Spiderman.

Batman isn't even in the top 20's, so we know that not very many people were anticipated to see it.

Episode III also broke a top record by scoring in 50 mil on it's Midnight premiere!

Episode III has already ranked in $706 million dollars WORLDWIDE, mainly because people love the movie so much, they go to see it a second time.

I have seen both movies, and Batman begins is an overall horrible movie. The battle scenes were so horribly Choreographered. I mean all i saw was Batman jump into a middle of a group of guys, a fifteen second blur of Batman and the guys flailing as the f*cking camera shook and then all the guys were on the ground and Batman was already gone.

and one of these guys in this thread mentioned that Batmans suit was made of Neoprene. This is impossible! The basic chemical composition of Neoprene synthetic rubber is polychloroprene. The polymer structure can be modified by copolymerizing chloroprene with sulfur and/or 2,3 dichloro 1,3-butadiene to yield a family of materials with a broad range of chemical and physical properties. By proper selection and formulation of these polymers, the compounder can achieve optimum performance for a given end-use but cannot insure a bulletproof, knife proof vesting! I mean for christs sakes, he says it's knife proof and bullet proof. I mean even after customizing the Neoprenes compound, you still could never achieve a bulletproof vest. Bullets would go through it, as would a sharp enough knife.

And then Batman meets Ducard.... A man who decides Bruce is the luckiest man on earth and has somehow heard of him, although he is more than 70,000 feet up on a mountain in some Shadow League in the Himilayas. I am guessing he uses phones to call people about a person he has so coincedentally heard of? C'MON!

And everyone is saying how "Dark" this movie is. What is so dark about it? Did he use a more shaded layer of paint for his outfit? Did he pitch his voice to make him sound "Darker"? Was he the bad guy of the movie? Did he kill anyone? What the hell infuses people to start saying that this movie is Dark? Lemme guess, it's because the Screenwriter decided to put a shade of black on the fight scenes to cover it's ultimate shittiness? Good lord. He is still a panzy ass that saves people and listens to his crummy butler, who f*cking orders him around like a goddamn slave.

Butler: Hello Batman. I suggest you don't do this, or don't do this.
Batman: Ok Alfred, i'll listen to you even though i don't have an initiative to. But wait, i do pay you to sit around and clean a house i never am in or use.
Butler: Thanks!

This would have been better

Butler: Hello Batman. I suggest you don't do this or that.
Batman: Do i pay you to speak?
Butler: No, you pa....
Batman: Then do shut the f*ck up.

Episode III made an example out of Batman. It showed the interest of a prime and ready final prequel.

Episode III showed people how Anakin fell to Badness and nearly conquer the freakin' GALAXY!

Batman showed how lame it is for someone as bad as Batman to become some panzy good guy who saves the dirty DIRTY junkhole that Gotham is.

Batman should have killed that damn prisoner then he should have killed all of those b!tch ass Ninja fags who dare oppose his bad exellence. Of course, they would pass out shortly after watching his Badness. But he decided to be a good guy and burn down a perfectly good Ninja Academy like the Lemon faced moron that he is and always will be.

^Sad.

So, Lord, your complaints lay in a single instance of cinematography, which I feel was actually intentional, and the way Alfred and Batman interact, which you're totally incorrect in your assumption of? That's shallow. You're obviously partial, and your box office comparisons are invalid. Nobody ever expected "Batman Begins" to do anything but be a better film than the previous 4. I don't follow your Ducard gripe either. He deciding he's lucky? What?

Apparently we saw two totally different movies.
