TWBB had a worse critical reception than TDK...you know from the people that should be the judges of a movie's quality but i'm sure how you'll spin that again
TDK has an average critic rating of 8.5 on rotten tomatoes. TWBB has an averag critic rating of 8.4. not that any if this matters since the critics reception has nothing to do with anything i said. i said the opinion of the general populace should have little effect on what decides the oscars, since the general populace generally has terrible taste in these matters.
And even though i liked TWBB except for Daniel Day Lewis everything else is nothing special...he holds the whole movie.
If anyone else is in his role the movie will be mediocre...and that doesnt speak too well of the other parts of the movie.
well, i'd argue that aside from the films incredible supporting cast, it also had phenominal cinematography, music, editing, and screenplay. better than TDK's, i'd say. and honeslty, walking out of TDK, i had the same thought you had in regards to TWBB. i found it easily possible that the movie would have been terribly mediocre had ledger not been what he was in the film.
But even if a dont consider it a masterpiece i'm not going to go on forums and brag about how it doesnt deserve the awards it's got...i'm not so egoistical to consider my oppinion more important than the masses or the awards juries.I hate nothing more when people consider their oppinion so valid...for yourself sure,but not to ignore everyone else's.
im not bragging about anything. someone said it deserves and oscar, i said it didnt. i do believe this place was designed for discussion of opinions. one person gave theres, i gave mine. and never did i say my opinion was more important than someone elses, so dont get yourself off on calling me arrogant. but god forbid i have a differing opinion from someone else. i never even said the film was bad. i agree its a good film, just not the masterpiece everyone makes it out to be.
I like the Godfather but i was never impressed with it,i like Goodfellas better...but you will never hear me say that the movie is overated or stuff like that...just because ONE person doesnt like something it doesnt lesser the value of it.
uhhh....okay? i think you need to be a little less defensive about other people's differing opinions, and instead maybe discuss the opinions rather than coming off as if your offended by them. i've stated my issues with the film, and instead of discussing those points you've only come back saying you think the film is perfect and im arrogant for stating otherwise.
And just because i loved TDK it doesnt mean i ''blindly'' will defend it...for myself it's perfect,just like you would consider something else perfect(or near)...it's called taste,it has nothing to do with me being a Batman fan...i don like Burton's movies i despise Schumacher's and i think BB is quite good but pretty flawed at the end.
glad you have your opinion. i dont agree with it. but i think we covered that.
carry on....
