Yeah, I get excited about other movies, but damn, some people are acting as if The Dark Knight is a better action film than the first Die Hard.Discuss. hmm
Aren't you just annoyed cuz someone said TDK is better than Hellboy 2? ha-son
...I wouldn't know... this is the first thread I've seen about TDK outside of the Batman forum...here in KMC
anyways.... Is a great movie... I would say best comic-book based movie.... but ceirtainly not the best movie ever
... anyways: why bother about IDMB?... Metacritic or rottentomatoes are more reliable sites...

Yeah, let's not challenge the legitimacy of the first Die Hard, the Hamlet of films.

For me Metacritic is really good when it comes to the video games. When it comes to movies...they aren't as good. Rotten tomatoes is pretty good with movies reviews.
My take...
..I don't need tomatoe metters or imdb top 10 or some countdown to determine if I'm going to enjoy the film or not.
I think people who love countdowns or top ten of anything and also consider them flawless.... are far more fanboyish than fanboys themselves. When some one ask for my favorite top ten films...I usually note that they're not in any specific order. I like to keep them in no particular order.
