Iron Man was a lot more enjoyable. Heath in The Dark Knight was really entertaining and a much better villain in his movie but the rest of the movie just wasn't as good overall as Iron Man was.

dark knight without a second thought. i'm seeing it a third time this week.

Pepper was really cute, and Iron Man was a lot of fun so the call was tough but I have to give the nod to The Dark Knight. Ledger's Joker was Awesome!!!

 

[rhythmdevils]

are you kidding? IMO, iron man was a super hero movie. Dark Knight was the first "marvel" movie to break out of that and actually be a great film. but just MO

I saw both. They are totally different movies so I voted for Iron Man, because I new it was the underdog. But they are so good you almost can't compare them.

I'm a Marvel fan but movie-wise, The Dark Knight overall.

DK kicked IM's butt, I love Pepper to death, and Downey was great, but DK was just way better imho!

 

[rockin_amigo14]

i know this is OT, but for the argument of Nicholson vs. Ledger of who's the better joker...

I don't think they can be compared. They're two entirely different interpretations and both did extremely well with the version they created. But it's not fair to compare contrasting styles like that.

The Dark Knight...no contest whatsoever.

I say this of course assuming that one sees TDK on the IMAX. It is an absolute must to see this film on this screen. It is night and day compared to 35mm. I truly feel sorry for those that have only seen it on a regular screen and making impressions on the film. IMO, you really didn't see nor experience the film until you've made the trek to an IMAX screen and viewed it there. The resolution is mindblowing.

Check out this link showing how much of the screen is cut off with 35mm. NIGHT AND DAY!

Didn't really like either. Both were just cheesy summer popcorn flicks. Didn't do anything for me. I liked Wall-E better than both.

The Dark Knight.

Finally saw The Dark Knight today. Very disappointing and pretentious. The dialogue was flat and lifeless. Ledger was good, but his character was humorless and went nowhere. Maybe that was the "point," but isn't the Joker supposed to have a few good jokes? I found myself checking my watch throughout the movie. Explosions, fight scenes with anonymous henchmen and car chases are boring. That's been played out for at least 20 years. We've seen it all before and there's zero entertainment or excitement in them.

On the other hand, Iron Man was a lot of fun. Not deep or meaningful (or pretending to be) but it moved along with good performances, humor and fun. I hope there's a sequel.

I love the tumbler too much.

Iron Man for me. I was just not as entertained by DK, it dragged, the fight sequences didn't work for me, too many car chases. Heath was awesome but the rest of the performances fell flat for me.
