I also love how Whedon combines the darkness with humour.<br /><br />Allison (<a href="http://www.alsgeekbanter.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Geek Banter</a>)Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02586970076965983267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6839646920915128083.post-49249160069823523402012-07-24T22:52:53.819-07:002012-07-24T22:52:53.819-07:00Very true, it's nigh impossible to compare the...Very true, it's nigh impossible to compare them. I loved the Dark Knight Rises, but the Avengers just tips it for me due to Whedon's brilliant use of humour. Still, Christopher Nolan can do no wrong.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02548680159204361401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6839646920915128083.post-21903662538004046642012-07-23T12:44:07.952-07:002012-07-23T12:44:07.952-07:00I'm a geek left out of all this fun.

One is rapid fire fun, the other serious and dark. I thought Dark Knight Rises was amazing, although almost too dark at times. And the ending was perfect.Alex J.

Dark Knight was overrated. Good but not great. Nolan tends to be overrated. I haven't seen Memento, but The Prestige is the best I've seen by him.<br />At any rate, I'm hoping to make the new one this week.Andrew Leonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13964775673414653644noreply@blogger.com
