The Avengers is not only my favorite superhero film of the year, but it's also my favorite film of the year (so far). It was a fanboy's wet dream. I can't wait to pick up the Blu-ray.
The Dark Knight Rises isn't too far behind. Not as good as TDK, but still pretty damn epic. Bane was an awesome villain. Overall, it was a worthy end to a great trilogy. The Amazing Spider-Man was good, but I didn't fall in love with it like I did with Raimi's original film. But I will concede that Andrew Garfield is much better in the role, and Emma Stone was perfect as well. I'm really looking forward to the sequel. Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance was one of the worst superhero movies I've ever seen. |

So far for me...
The Amazing Spider-Man - 9/10 (Just slightly more enjoyable than The Avengers for me) The Avengers - 9/10 The Dark Knight Rises - 8.5/10 As a huge Batman and Nolan fan, I am very surprised that the other two movies edged out TDKR for me.

The Dark Knight Rises: A
The Avengers: B+ Dredd: B The Amazing Spiderman: C- All things considering, it was a legendary year for comic book movies. I doubt 2012 will ever be topped. ...Unless The Avengers 2, The Batman relaunch and Justice League are outstanding in 2015. |

The Avengers: A
The Amazing Spider-Man: B+ The Dark Knight Rises: C+ Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance: D Spoiler!!! Click to Read!:
Despite that I keep hearing good things for Dredd, I doubt I'll get to see it in theaters. Which is a shame, because I like Urban as an actor and the movie seems to be a very faithful iteration of the character. |

Lack of money to spend, personal limitations, free time. The classics. I'm sure I'll at least catch it on DVD.

How about we break down every part of each movies. Cinematography, visual effects, score, depth, and story. Everyone's giving out scores without further explanation.

Now that I have seen Dredd:
1. The Dark Knight Rises:The film bites a little more than it can chew, causing some sloppy moments, but overall the film is fantastic and a fantastic conclusion to my favorite film trilogy.Overall A 2. The Avengers:The film pretty much perfects what it was trying to accomplish. The only reason I give The Dark Knight Rises the SLIGHT EDGE is because The Avengers just lacks any type of depth and I personally will always prefer a deeper film to a non-deep film if the overall quality of the two is this close. I would say The Avengers is the closest thing Marvel's come to making a 'flawless' film.Overall:A 3.Dredd:Great performance by Urban and an overall really intriguing action film. There are a few acting hicups from some of the smaller actors and the overall story is pretty basic, but it manages to get what they were going for without too many bumps in the road. Overall: B+ 4. The Amazing Spiderman: Andrew Garfield IS Spiderman. The actors and origin story are much better than Raimi's however, once Peter becomes Spiderman the lack of a strong villain hurts the story a bit. Basically TAS has a better cast and a better origin, but Raimi's story post-origin was much better and his villain was much better. Still, TAS is greatly entertaining and a very solid origin film that promises very good sequels. Overall: B+ EDIT: To answer some of Comics' questions(and a few more I came up with): Best Director:Chris Nolan Best Film:TDKR Best Cinematography:TDKR Best Visual Effects: The Avengers Score:TDKR Story:TDKR Action Scenes: The Avengers Overall Acting for full cast: TDKR Best Actor: Christian Bale(Andrew Garfield a very close second) Best Actress: Scarlett Johanson Best Supporting Actor: Tom Hardy Best Supporting Actress: Emma Stone(Anne Hathaway a very close second) Best Scene: Sewer Fight between Bane and Batman in TDKR

DREDD
I think i had the most fun with Dredd. Sounds weird but if I had to pick so far its more up my alley. Dredd never takes his helmet off, good pace, to the point action, dark & gritty fun. TDKR, Batman never seems to actually put his helmet on in the movie, too many characters, just found myself bored to be honest, . But its just my view.. All depends on what you like.

Finally watched Dredd.
Here's my top: 1. The Dark Knight Rises - great movie all around, even despite having some pace problems and plot holes. 2. Dredd - low budget for this kind of production, but great fun overall. 3. The Avengers - really great movie, but personally it's too childish for my taste. 4. The Amazing Spider-Man - good comic book movie, beautiful with great main cast, but the story is too familiar + weak villain. Also, just as The Avengers, too kids-friendly. Haven't seen Ghost Rider and Chronicle. And not going to.

TDKR just bare nudges out Avengers for me, though I admit my obvious bias. I also throw Dredd into a very close 3rd, nowhere near as epic or spectacular as the holders of the first two spots, but damn near as enjoyable to me. I'd tie Spidey and Chrincle after that, loved them both, and GR (while better than the first one) is a distant last.
