The Avengers, a very solid 10/10
The Dark Knight Rises, a more solid 10/10

the dark knight rises

I enjoyed both. But I enjoyed Avengers that little bit more. Both excellent summer movies.

[CZAR]

The Avengers for me! Simply because for me it was ground breaking and I was blown away at the fact that they actually made a film with this many super heroes. On my first viewing my jaw dropped during the first fight scene between Iron Man & Thor. I couldnt believe I was really watching this! On top of that it was done superbly and this was a film that couldve easily went wrong based on the material at hand but Whedon stepped up and knocked it out of the park! This film is probably in my top 10 films of all time! Got Em!!

Enjoyed both, but TDKR edged out Avengers as i thought the pacing for an even longer movie on my first viewing was perfect and even the 2nd time, it didn't feel slow like it might in parts, but 'slowed down enough' (based on the idea you know what's coming) without any detriment to the flow of the movie. I actually found it much easier to absorb the story even more cause i knew what came, i can look for even more obscure elements of the story i may have missed

Both were AMAZING movies though and all the fans won!

Nolanites v.s. Marvelites...yeah, this won't end well.

That was my first thought when I voted as well. I think it may partially have to do with some not believing that you can like both Marvel and DC at the same time.

[Livelong420]

I can't decide! I did wish batman was in more of the movie though, with new tech from the fantastic Mr. Fox.

And I take the greatest possible exception to the fact that "Amazing Spider-Man" was not included in this poll.

Not that it's my favorite of the three, mind you.

The Amazing Spider-Man wouldnt stand a chance in this contest! Got Em!!

Moved to movie polls.

I know we have a separate polls forum but the movie section gets more traffic and I wouldve hoped we couldve made an exception to allow this poll to stay in the movie forum due to the high traffic it would get based on the topic. Got Em!!

[Tony208]

This is not a poll of which movie is better, it's a poll to see how many dark knight and marvel fanboys are on the forums

[khan1670]

I liked them both.

They are totally different styles of films and both are not as perfect as the fanboys of each think.

I will gladly own both on Blu-ray when they come out.

We should be happy we got two very good superhero movies this year.

[Steve]

Both movies are excellent and about equal IMO, but for me The Avengers is a bit more fun to watch so that's what I voted.

[L-Rouge]

they were great, but I lean to TDKR for the realism, movie felt grounded by comparison. Superior villain ;-)

[Dragon Lee]

no-brainer for me: Batman & Robin
