Well, the original that turned it from being a complete joke into a dark gothic series.

Ah... the original second adaptation of other media.

I'm going to go for the original Batman, as its a movie from my childhood that I've always enjoyed. Dark Knight was also a fantastic film, but didnt do much for me opposed to Batman.


Going way back into the thread but thanks, I'll check them out. I saw Drag Me To Hell not too long ago though and thought it was terrible. The funny kind of terrible though :)

Damn, the older one's really getting some hate. I'm going for the Burton version because I just found it more interesting. The Dark Knight is a really good, entertaining movie, but there's some wackiness in Batman that I enjoyed. I love the odd Joker gadgets, like the foot-long gun.

Dark Knight: 10

Batman: 3

That's the one.

I agree 100% with all your choices except that one... I think that one is a very niche audience type of horror movie. I mean people get grossed out by the Saw series, but if that saw that... I dunno, I don't think it would go over so well.

I'm gonna vote for The Dark Knight. And actually I don't mind the growl, 'cause when I think about it, the very concept of superheroes seems very silly to me. I mean if I can accept a guy dressing up as a giant bat, I sure can accept the bizarre voice. It goes with the theatrics.

And because, someone haven't counted Violent&Funky's vote, the new result is:

The Dark Knight 12
Batman 3

And a crushing victory for the Dark Knight!

I'm gonna post the next battle a bit early today, cz I'm leaving in a while.


The Matrix (1999) by The Wachowskis
vs.
Inception (2010) by Chris Nolan
(So yeah, another Nolan battle, those are the suggestions. I hope there won't be any spoilers)

Let the battle begin!

Inception 1

Matrix 0

I'll admit, I simply fell in love with Inception. It's perfection from beginning to end.

This was my suggestion, and I'm not sure why. Because I love the ideas and concepts explored in both films, even though Matrix has a lot more originality I just loved Inception, I think it will be remembered in a few years time, just like The Matrix, it not more so.

Inception 2
The Matrix 0
