The Avengers 2012 vs The Dark Knight Rises 2012 Box Office Beyond The Trailer

IMAX TDKR!!!!

I'm tired of arguing about these two movies, I will see both and I'm sure I will enjoy myself. Competition is fun but this has gotten old, stale and boring now.

Just let the movies come out and speak for themselves.

Oh and @MrReese my friend I totally agree with u about the IMAX TDKR! This is certainly not the first time we've agreed on stuff haha

That chick was reading cue cards the whole time lol.

Box Office TDKR will win, batman is too popular.
But as far as quality and epicness goes, The Avengers will own all.

EarOne-if you're tired, then why bother reading and responding to it...??? duh..!!

It's called freedom of speech and expression, I have the right to express my opinion like it or not tough luck.

Now that thumbnail split screen of Thor and Batman - wouldn't that make for an epic battle?

Anyways ...

Avengers win for me. I just can't see how a movie that has The Hulk, Thor and Iron Man flying around kicking the crap out of hundreds of aliens could ever be anything other than amazing. As much as I know TDKR will be a fantastic movie and trilogy closer, it just won't be able to withstand the moment the Avengers assemble for the first time, no matter how bad the rest of the movie might be.

I don't care which one makes the most money, that means shit. Scott Pilgrim was one of the most awesome movies I've seen in decades, and it was technically a flop. I absolutely refuse to see IMAX or 3D films, they only exist to legally steal your cash and avoid police investigation later on.

When it comes to my CBMS, I want accuracy to source and entertainment. We've seen what Bane and Catwoman have to offer in TDKR, and Nolanite or not, their accuracy has been found wanting. I'm still going to watch it though, if only to complete the set.

The Amazing Spider-Man seems to be (on account of the trailers) to be walking in the 'Dark Knight' path, which pisses me straight the hell off. Spidey only has dark periods in life, not an entire gloomy persona. I may skip TAS completely and wait for home viewing.

The Avengers has the accuracy and the entertainment value, along with the entire aspect of several movies combining forces to bring all the protagonists under one heading. Astounding to me how people leave that out so often. And, if even one ounce of the rumors show up in that new trailer, like say Hulk slamming Iron Man around by his leg, or him and Thor going toe to toe, all other summer events will be left by the wayside...

It's probable that TDKR will win the box office fight -- the anticipation is huge because it's the sequel to the highest grossing CBM ever and the last movies in a trilogy tend to make the most money. I don't know if it will out-gross TDK, but it might, and that's going to make it the highest grossing CBM ever.

I think THE AVENGERS will be the better movie, more entertaining and fun, a big explosion-y summer blockbuster with some serious underlying theme. I'm not a fan of the Nolan Bat-movies, so the less said, the better. I hope he doesn't drown the movie in too much dreary muck.

TASM, I see grossing well but well below Spidey 3. Reboots always tend to do modestly. BATMAN BEGINS did modest box office, ditto SUPERMAN RETURNS. Both did in the ~$400 mil. range, which I can see pushed up to ~$500 mil. for 3D reboot Spidey.

AVENGERS, best guess, $700-800 mil.

TDKR, maybe $900+?

THE HOBBIT blows them all out of the water.

Another no-brainer. Nolan & company will steal the show by a landslide.
