Its certainly as good as Blade Runner's script anyway...I really don't get what some of you seem to have against Dark Knight, its literally a modern classic.

Really, a modern classic? You didn't think the boats scene let it down in the end?

I haven't seen Blade Runner, so i am FORCED by law to choose TDK.

The boats scene was a great setpiece.

THE DARK KNIGHT IS gooseberry fool

IF I SHOUT MAYBE YOU'LL GET IT

In terms of the storyline or overall?

I'd disagree on both counts. Begins started brilliantly...but the ending was utter shite in comparison.

Dark Knight on the other hand didn't really have any bad bits in it at all, it was far more compelling and a better rounded film overall.

I wouldn't say the Two-Face arc was just tacked on, i think it was something which was meant to be going on in the background, as a contrast to how public the Joker wanted to be, for everyone to know about him. Two-Face was his little side-project for no-one to know about.

The insanity thing was a little implausible though, but i haven't exactly been in that situation where my close girlfriend dies and i am horribly disfigured therefore ruining my whole career possibilities.

Because it was bad overall.

Don't be silly. It may not be as good as Blade Runner (i haven't seen that) but it is most certainly not gooseberry fool.

Thats just plain wrong.

It didn't make much sense, I'll give you that, but it was far better than the worst bit in Begins (that being the ending) and at least it was interesting.

I've never seen the Blade runner movie, but I have read the book, is the movie a good adaptation of the book?

Its completely different.

But its better.

The Dark Knight is not a modern day classic. This film will be forgotten in a couple of decades and if it is remembered as any anything other than 'that film Heath Ledger did before he died', it'll be as a very solid super hero film. Classic...

Transformers > The Dark Knight

Nope. TDK was a great great ambitious film, but it does have flaws and problems. So does Begins, but Begins has less problems.

I agree with everything up to Begins being better, like H said the final act wasn't that good and a little dumb.

What a completely fake backlash against a great film this is, you guys should be ashamed of yourselves.

Oh and Poncho, I'd be willing to bet that in 10 or 20 years time The Dark Knight will be seen as the highlight of the genre, the best film of its era and type.

I prefer my comic book films action packed and cheesy, to be honest.

What was wrong with the final act?
