NERDSociety writes "July, 2012 is going to be an epic year for comic and movie nerds with Dark Knight Rises (July 20, 2012) and Spider-Man (July 3, 2012) reboot coming out within 3 weeks of each other. This will be a crazy battle: Marvel vs. DC, Sony vs WB, who will be the blockbuster king? I know I'll watch both but which movie is going to be better? Let's look at the important factors:
Director:
This is the most important factor. Directors can make or break a movie. Christopher Nolan is on his third gig as the director for Batman with Dark Knight Rises. His track record is pretty impressive, which includes Inception, Memento and Prestige."
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
Kaam Chalu Hai Review: Based on true events, this movie is thought-provoking and inspiring
Rebel Moon Part 2 Review: This movie doesn't feel anything new or worth remembering, which is a shame.
If Nolan can keep up his great directing like his other movies, then no doubt DKR will be way better than the Spider man reboot.
I love Nolan, but Im a spiderman fan and have already started saying Spiderman will be better haha.
I'm stil having issues finding that Anne Hathaway will play Catwoman. I think, that Selina is just in there for the sake of having Rachel being dead, and I don't know how'll they'll introduce her as just Selina, but I doubt Catwoman is in it. Yeah, they poked fun at it in TDK Bruce Wayne: How will it hold up against dogs?
Lucius Fox: "We talking Rottweilers or Chihuahuas? Should do fine against cats." Honestly, I did doubt Nolan, but I'm sure He'll do good, I doubted Heath Ledger, but that's a whole different story, and I'm sure he'll prove anyone who has any doubts wrong.
I'm more of a Spider-man fan but damn did Nolan do the most awesome comic-book character to movie adaption ever with TDK. I agree with Crazay about watching yet another Spider-Man movie about the origin.
They should realize, although this is a reboot, everyone who's going to be watching the movie already knows the origin, if not just show a quick comic book like montage as the credits roll to get everyone up to speed and jump right into a story. I'd love a dark-themed Spider-Man movie about Carnage like TDK's dark theme with Joker.
Oh well, I can dream can't I?
