75Live Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Plus a lot of DC Comic/Nolan loonies read the LA Times. :rofl: :rotfl: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zlazer Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) Plus a lot of DC Comic/Nolan loonies read the LA Times. According to more than 2,600 respondents to a Times online survey Joss Whedon's get-the-band-together take on the iconic superheroes was the most overpraised feature film of 2012. The sometimes-quippy, sometimes-geeky save-the-world-fest garnered a whopping 85% of the votes WHAAAAT lol Edited January 4, 2013 by zlazer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Lol the fact that TDKR did not get a small % of the vote, makes the poll suspect... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
75Live Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I can even say that The Avengers is overrated, but the percentage does seem a bit high Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I can see it being voted the most overrated but by 85% is silly with TDKR absent... Many people found TDKR bloated and too dark... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 If so it would have a better multiplier ^^^ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zlazer Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 If so it would have a better multiplier ^^^It has a better multi then hunger games, so not to shabby at 2.8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) It is a good multipler but not comparable to TA and THG as they opened to max potenital ^^^That is why I think even if the opening was not hit by tragic events it would have not made way more domestic.Something like 180/460-470 at most...

Michael Gary Scott Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Im just saying WOM was good not great. Avengers had great WOM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I think a trim down by 10-15 mins, a more simplier story (A complex part is great but here it was just too much) and some more dark humour like TDK would have helped out a lot...

ecstasy Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 LOL @ the L.A. Times poll. Was the Avengers the only blockbuster on it? I see stuff like Project X and Prometheus don't know why those movies would be on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orestes Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I think a trim down by 10-15 mins, a more simplier story (A complex part is great but here it was just too much) and some more dark humour like TDK would have helped out a lot...I also think turning Bane from bad ass mastermind to pussy whipped goon towards the end really hurt the movie, at least to me. Bane was diminished greatly and what little, if anything, Cottilard added didn't come remotely close to offsetting the damage done to his character. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 TDKR had an A cinema score. I'm pretty sure WOM was good with just many "It's not as good as TDK" comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zlazer Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 A lot of plp here make it out that Tdkr bombed, is critically panned and awful w.o.m 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 My biggest problem with TDKR is that Cottilard should have killed Bruce during or after sex. Game over. Done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orestes Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 My biggest problem with TDKR is that Cottilard should have killed Bruce during or after sex. Game over. Done.I tend to not get worked up over stuff like that. If I did, I would have to hate almost every Bond movie ever. But I still didnt think her character added anything of value, let alone enough to warrant cutting the legs out from under Bane as a character.

Done.Or when Batman and Catwoman jumped into the Bat, they could have easily defeated Bane because he was watching them fleeing on the roof. Heavily weaponed as it is, they could have blown him to smitherins. (Bat could even let Catwoman press the button). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Audiences certaintly liked TDKR but I don't think anyone found it anything great or special. I think there is little doubt audiences liked Avengers better 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
