The Avengers Vs The Dark Knight Rises

[B]so, you can tell me why First Blood,

Haven't seen it.

Alien

There wasn't even that much action in Alien. It was far more of a suspenseful thriller than anything else.

or Equilibrium aren't great films?

Been a while, but again Equilibrium actually had interesting fight choreography and a sense of style, plus interesting story from what I remember. Out of what I have seen, this is the closest to being an action film out of all that you brought up, but I'd have to see it again before I could call it a pure action film.

Empire Strikes Back? Or is there some reason you have determined that suggests these aren't action films?

Are you kidding me? ESB is in no way an action film. ESB tells a very heartfelt and meaningful story full of drama and twists and turns. It is in no way an action film.

Bantha got your tail Oliver North?

Both were great for different reasons.

Batman was better though no question.

went and saw the dark knight again the other day. MY GF forced me to duh. I went into it with no expectations and found i liked it a bit better. The avengers and TDK are totally diffrent movies. The avengers is not a movie of high end acting, this dosent mean there werent talented actors in it casue there were. However the avengers was a 100% pure comic book movie, special effects and action scenes with plenty of humor.

TDK on the other hand is not a traditional comicbook movie. IT reminded me more of Dark drama of a hero defending his city. It almost felt patriotic at times. However the action scenes were not on par with the avengers. The speciall effects were not even in the ball park with the avengers. If you are looking for a traditional comicbook movie thats a bundle of laughes with awsome action and fun to watch then the avengers are for you. If you are looking for a movie thats setting takes place in darker times, if your looking for a movie thats kinda long, if your looking for a movie thats has great acting in it. If you are not as concerned with the special effects and more concerned with getting in touch with the character then TDK is for you. THE TDK was more of a drama where the avengers was more a true comic book movie.

Laughable, considering you haven't even seen TDKR.

It's even better the second time around when you start to notice the small things and can really appreciate the acting.

Spoiler:
Like when Bane sees Talia for the first time and for a brief second his eyes flicker with recognition. ****, the acting was superb.

I wasn't even really serious when I said that. calm down bro. This really isn't that serious.

My sister saw it, she said Avengers was better. Critics did too, just saying, lol. Tomatometer is all-knowing.

Everyone keeps mentioning flaws and faults and plot holes, let's see some examples, particularly of plot holes. I'm still waiting for that list I was promised on page 1.

Blaxican did a good job of pointing you in the right direction but I don't think he pointed you to the best posts. The decent criticisms really start with mine and Blaxican's on page 22 (seriously).

I really tear the film a new one on page 24. Then I post a massive triple post criticism of the film on page 33. Warning: if you don't want to know about the great many number of flaws in the film, avoid reading those pages and posts because it could ruin the film for you. All other critical posts are pretty much just different words for points Blaxican and I already brought up.

I saw your points and not a shit was given.

I preferred the Avengers though.

Spoiler:
The only part that really grated on my nerves in terms of being a gaping plothole was a penniless and resourceless Bruce Wayne making it from some Middle Eastern country to Gotham in less than a ****ing day.

I got the feeling that DKR should have had another hour or so to it to make it feel complete...

But then I would have had to pee in my Extra large Soda cup.

Can't compare them.

TDK>Avengers>>>TDKR.

But stop with the TDKR Nitpicking. It was a good film. Just doesn't touch it's predecessors.

Really?

I'm having fun.. I thought they were the same equally, IMO... but then again I just wanted a good movie and I got that

Those are terrible facts.

Lol

But seriously, Jurassic Park is easily my favorite movie of all time.

YouTube video

This scene is so beautiful to me, everything is perfect (especially the music).

I also LOVE the ending, when they were in the helicopter, and the people look out the window and see the pelicans flying alongside the helicopter in formation and realize that the dinosaurs were with us all along.

I could go on about that movie all day.

They all brought something equally amazing to the table for me. It's like picking your favorite child.

Dark Knight brought some of the best performances and scenes I've ever seen in a film.

The Avengers brought some of the largest action sequences and best allstar casts of all time.

The Dark Knight Rises brought some of the most memorable lines, shocking moments, and one of the single greatest movie villains in decades.

But that's just me personally.

Both series is great. All three super hero flicks this summer had great story lines with terrific casts. Nolan put out the best Batman series so far with three solid flick for his trilogy. Avengers is everything we could ever hopeful. Finally the technology is up to par that an Avengers film can be pulled off without feeling cheesy. It's an incredible cast that pulled off what comic fans have been drooling over. At this point, JLA fans would be happy if a film was made that was on par with the Avengers.
