    I do like Ant-Man and for me would have beaten some of the films that have already gone through but have to go for Batman in this face off.

    The Dark Knight, simply for Heath Ledger's portrayal of The Joker.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    If it was up against most others, I too would choose Ant-Man, but The Dark Knight is an almost perfect film, so gotta stick with The Dark Knight.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,689 ✭✭✭✭skipper_G


    Dark knight again for ledger's performance


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60,969 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Ant-Man


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    The Dark Knight takes the tie as Ant-Man gets squished, albeit reluctantly. I mentioned in the opening post that I was going to be generous about what films I included under the superhero umbrella, and this tie features an example of that, as we see a 90s film take on a recent film...
