I'd be willing to bet this poll would look about the same on any other board as well. Perhaps even this one....

Not at all (though I'm of the mind that the direct comparisons, while obvious, are silly). To each his own. Knock yourself out. I'm just saying that TDK is all but the word of God on the boards here. And that's fine. But it also makes polls like this redundant and futile. Especially when the movies are quite different.
I quite like IRON MAN a lot, too. In fact, I love all 3 of these flicks... but for very different reasons.
Honestly, I would be beyond shocked if that were the result on this board. Nothing will beat TDK around here. And again, that's fine. But it is what it is.You would have no problem if it were Watchmen instead of Dark Knight.
Like I said, you wouldn't be calling out the fanboys if they were giving their love to Watchmen instead.Honestly, I would be beyond shocked if that were the result on this board. Nothing will beat TDK around here. And again, that's fine. But it is what it is.
None of these movies needs any validation, though... especially the contrived kind.
And, yes, I'm being recalcitrant.
I really liked Watchmen. I liked Dark Knight a little more. I personally put Iron Man well below both.
On here? No I wouldn't... because it wouldn't be as obvious and redundant. On WCM, I already have. In fact, I closed a similar thread there because it was futile and foolishly biased toward WATCHMEN. There's just no point and it only serves to fuel the same silly fanboy ^^^^ measuring debates. But, hey, at least it's different than the old SW vs LOTR, right?

It would be like starting an IRON MAN vs TDK thread on our Marvel boards here (which I think some did one time). Unless the TDKers jumped into the Marvel section en masse IRON MAN would actually have a shot.
I still don't get the huge love for Iron Man. It was good, but it wasn't DARK KNIGHT good.
Mine goes:
Dark Knight>Watchmen>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Iron Man.
