bullshit! eric roberts is julia roberts brother.. that, in its own rights, makes the dark knight the best film ever.. period..
The only good movie Eric Roberts was in is Sharktopus, and that is because the concept of a Sharktopus is so genius it overrules Eric Roberts badness, and that was on tv.
Originally posted by RE: BlaxicanWatchmen WAS horrible. Blue d**ks weren't the only problem the film had.
Watchmen was complete and utter shit though, so not really. And as far as a comic book movie, I'd say both TDK and Begins are both average. Batman himself is the least interesting part of those films.

there is always the second installment. and yes there will be one.
Who said there will be a sequel to GL?? It completely flopped. They're not going to want to go near it again.
As for a reboot, chances are even a good one would flop again now thanks to the first one, unless they wait about 10 years.

Several people in this thread have said GL is about the same as Cap in terms of quality. 🙁
yeah well, it seems most people forget KMC isn't the internet... 😉

I liked Watchmen a lot. The Ultimate Cut is the closest to the source material it could ever get.
But as a movie it just doesn't work as well as it should 😬... I wasn't expecting it to be, the graphic novel is so complex it just can't work as a movie
I hated there was no skid, but as movie plot, the Manhattan devices are less ridiculous, but still fail as a reason for the cold war to end 😐

Why is everyone capping on Watchman? I mean it was a direct copy of the book excluding the ending, but what would anybody do so differently to make it up to their standards?
THIS
it was as close to the GN as it could ever be...
maybe no slow-mo?

WB spent so much money on marketing, merch and hyping the character (with things a new Bruce Tim cartoon), that the studio might feel they have to make a second movie regardless. The same thing happened with Tron, and the Chronicles of Narnia. If the movie and cartoon push enough toy sales, it might be worth looking at the movie as a loss leader for potential merch sales.

Ah I see.. Well I dnt mind, I actually enjoyed certain aspects of the movie, just think it went a bit wrong with the Direction (the movie didn't flow properly), had a bit too much cheesiness, and story almost worked but just went a bit wrong.
Regardless I just dnt see a sequel or reboot selling unfortunately. They should just keep him animated for now, try to grow popularity for the character for a while first.
The JLU cartoon did that, but then they didn't use John Stewart in the movie.

Maybe just accept the fact that some comics, like Watchmen and Hulk, just are way better in comics than movies.

How you people shit on Watchmen and praise The Incredible Hulk is way beyond me though.You just aren't very attentive, are you?

You're the one claiming a movie with a 56/100 metascore and 64% on Rotten Tomatoes is God's gift to comic movies.
