What did you like better Batman (1989) or Daredevil?

Exactly Magneto is pushing 60+ in the early comics they appropriatlly drew him similerly to his age it was later they turned him into a man who looked no more then early 40s with white hair this coupled with Mckellen and stewarts great chemistry make the first 2 x films my favourite of the genre.

Batman 89. This isn't even a contest. Daredevil's director's cut had some good things but overall it didn't even come close to the original Batman. I'm not even sure how this comparison is justified.

Me either, perhaps Superman or Batman Begins would have made a better comparison.


Why didn't we just compare Batman 89' to the Lion King?

Hands down its Batman because its the movie i grew up with as a kid and yah to this day i still think its good. I do like the DareDevil movie but yah nothing can beat when Bat-Wing and the moon sence pure glory!

Batman is a movie I grew up with. I always loved it.
but, after watching Daredevil's DC, I just liked the movie even more.
it's a tie, for me. really hard to choose.

 

[The Joker_1000]

DD sucked while Batman (1989) didn't, I don't see how it could be a tie for anyone.

 

[Super_Ludacris]

I can lol and its hilarious why

 

[DaRkVeNgeanCe]

DD had potential, but didnt get to where it needed to be, it failed.

 

[Genosha]

DD DC is better IMO. But I'm a completely unreliable opinion because I like DD as a character more.

Well than you should see how DD as a film did not do the character justice at all.

The only thing I will give Daredevil is that there was that great scene with the young, blind Murdock holding his dad after he was killed. Although now we've got a version of that with a good movie surrounding it...called Batman Begins.

Ive stated this before both of those scenes are very VERY similar. The panning out shot of the fallen parent/parents and their child mourning, its pretty close to be the same.

Me neither.

I disagree. Even though it compacted and condensed a lot of DD history into one 2 hour block, I thought the essential core of DD as a character was definitely there.

I am well aware that the majority of fans believe the movie is sub-par. Daredevil just happens to be one of those films (And we all have movies like this) that I'm in the minority on its merit.

I understand completely, Im a minority fan to many films, the typical fan likes. I do like DD for what it is, I just wish it was done a little better and taken a little more seriously, WITHOUT Elektra or Jennifer Garner for that matter.

 

[Damiean Dark]

DD had potential the opening scenes in the sensory depradation tank where great i just think affleck wasnt a great DD Micheal C White who stars in Dexter on TV could be a amazing DD imo he has a great look and the right build and is a good actor but not too famous to take away from the movie.

Wow, I can't believe 47 people thought Daredevil was better than B89. Just wow. Forgetting about the comparison poll for the moment, I personally thought DD was pretty bad. I don't think I even finished watching it. Found the storyline too predictable and I thought Affleck was pretty bad in it as well. But then as of this moment, I can't think of a single film to date where Affleck's acting is actually good.

So really, there's no comparison with B89 which, let us remember, was ground-breaking for its time and is the highest grossing Batman film to date. It's a shame that the nolan fanboys can not bear to say, "well B89 is actually an okay movie really, especially in comparison with DD". We get you love BB, I do too, but to choose DD over B89 is just below the belt!

My sentiments exactly.

Batman

 

[The Joker_1000]

I don't care how you look at it, Daredevil sucked.

 

[Finlandman]

Both are similar yet very different. But have similar overtowns, and "twists" for the villains.

So which did you like better

Tim Burton's Batman (1989)

Or MSJ's Daredevil (2003)

You must be kidding me...

 

[Punishment]

Batman is so much better than Daredevil, i dont mind Daredevil but Tim Burtons Batman is Amazing
