seriously they made 2 alright batman movies burton did way better imo but at least nolan bros films were better than schumachers (batman forever1995, batman and robin1997), martinsons(batman the movie1966), bennets(batman and robin 1949), and hillyers(batman 1943) but its really not hard to make a better film than those guys

Memento
Batman Begins
The Prestige
Dark Knight
Inception

overrated?

Go away troll.

yeah they're way overrated at least i ain't stuck on 2 hacks nuts

"Overrated" is an opinion, just as how it's my opinion that Burton's Batman films are overrated. Still like 'em though.

That is your opinion, but for me the new films blew Burtons out of the water, but i still enjoy burtons version from time to time. and when i was a kid i loved the 1966 movie but it sucks pretty bad now.

Inception is overrated though...... so he is not 100% wrong just 99.9%

who are the nolan bros?? can the thread starter be more specific

Thanks for your in depth and thought provoking analysis on why Nolan and his movies are overrated.

fiirst i didn't say thier movies are overrated i said they are even though some of their movies are like batman begins and the dark knight so get your facts straight secondly i think their overrated because all i ever see and hear is ''thank god for the nolan bros'' like their gods gift to humanity and in my opinion thier not but instead highly overrated

It's your opinion if you think they're overrated. Personally, I think that the Burton films are overrated because they don't stay true to the comics but get so much praise (I still enjoy them though). However, that is MY opinion. And I don't expect everyone else to agree with me.

Also, you are going to regret making this thread very soon. Why? Because on this thread lives a certain hardcore Burton hater who will soon see this thread and will start insulting Burton to no end. For those of you that have been on this Batman forum for more than 2 years, you know which person I'm talking about.

I don't see much difference.

As for sharing opinions, that is all great when there are not personal attacks (as you said), but when you say "at least i ain't stuck on 2 hacks nuts" you seem to be implying a personal attack to all those who enjoy their movies. Comments like that are going to make people categorize you as a troll poster.

No offense but the first part of your post is hard to understand due to bad grammar.

yes.

So I see you put some really well thought reasons into this............But why are they overrated?

If when you say that the Nolan brothers are overrated what you actually mean is that the Coen brothers are overrated then you would be correct.

My definition of overrated is a little different than what most consider the term today, so I'll go on to explain that:

To me, overrated doesn't mean that the overrated person/group/thing isn't good, it just means they're given more credit than they deserve.

For example, Kobe Bryant is overrated. He's the best player in the NBA, but he's still overrated (being compared to the GOAT, Michael Jordan) Another would be Batman himself. He's the best comic book character, imo, but that doesn't mean that he isn't still overrated (Batman with prep =/= beat everyone)

What I take Nolan being overrated as is different, as well. He's made the best live-action Batman movie of all-time so far (TDK), but it isn't the definitive Batman on-film, from a comics-to-film perspective, as many would believe. There's so much missing from his series that others have, like the atmosphere of Gotham and the aesthetics of Batman's world that Bruce Timm and Tim Burton nailed, imo, and etc.
