Lists are supposed to be about consensus. Missed the reveal (nothing I didn't already know though ) and meltdowns here, at least I can read them after the fact. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This movie cured cancer, but a vile conspiracy led by Hydra caused the experimental drug to be destroyed. Faced with such darkness, Saint Nolan and his group of acolytes settled for world peace and stopping famine through the gospel of 15/70 film. Nolan was offered the Nobel Prize for literature and peace (the first such recipient in history), but declined both awards due to his modesty. Yes, he really is that perfect. The sheer magic of this movie rippled through the cinematic spacetime continuum, causing people to re-evaluate all previous Nolan movies and increase their rating at least one full grade. It also managed the impossible feat of giving Wally Pfister a directing job on a possible tentpole project.Tomato meter: 127%, 11.7/10 average ratingAcademy Awards: 17 wins, 17 nominationsRandom critic comment: “I was blind but the majesty of Bane’s plane assault cured me.

Kalo Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 So some people have said 2012 wasn't a weak year, maybe I just watched the wrong movies but it kind of is for me, for example, Avengers was my number #1 2012 movie and it is my 5th favorite MCU film. Civil War is my favorite MCU film ever and it ranks 4th in 2016. and I thought 21 Jump Street was Hilarious, a fantastic comedy and I ranked it #2 in 2012. I saw 22 Jump Street, thought it was almost as good as 21 Jump Street and ranked it at 30 in 2014.. so yeah 2012 was a weak year for movies. don't get me wrong there were some fantastic films, but I wouldn't give any a 10/10.

Here we go... #1 Hide contents The Dark Knight Riseswritten by: Jonathan and Christopher Nolan, from a story by Christopher Nolan & David Goyer, based on characters created by Bob Kane (and Bill Finger) directed by: Christopher Nolan starring: Christian Bale, Tom Hardy, Michael Caine, Anne Hathaway Number of first-place votes: 3IMDB synopsis: Eight years after the Joker's reign of anarchy, the Dark Knight, with the help of the enigmatic Selina, is forced from his imposed exile to save Gotham City, now on the edge of total annihilation, from the brutal guerrilla terrorist Bane. Like THE AVENGERS, I’m not sure what’s left to say about this. For many people, Nolan’s Bat-trilogy stand as the current gold-standard of comic-book movies (though there’s certainly a significant minority that find them too dark, and feel they don’t embrace the essence of comics as fully as some other CBMs). Nolan continued his experiment of shooting a significant amount of the movie on IMAX 15/70 film, as he felt that was the best possible way to view a movie theatrically. Inevitably compared with its predecessor, THE DARK KNIGHT (a movie which rapidly reached iconic status among most fans), THE DARK KNIGHT RISES fell a bit short of most people’s expectations, but generally speaking it received a warm reception critically. It, of course, was a monster hit domestically and worldwide, though it failed to reach the heights of some 3-D boosted mega-hits like AVENGERS or AVATAR.Tomato meter: 87%, 8/10Academy Awards: 0 wins, 0 nominationsRandom critic comment: “The grave and satisfying finish to Mr. Nolan's operatic bat-trilogy.” —Manohla Dargis, New York TimesRandom RTM comment: “The Dark Knight Rises is often times quite moving and thrilling, just managing to stick the landing, but it doesn’t appear to have done it with ease. … I wanted to see a conclusion that would end the trilogy on a satisfying note, similar to Return of the King or even Return of the Jedi and that held true.” —@MrPink congratulation to batboy grows up, catching fire'll take the crown next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
