ComicBookMovie Battle Poll: The Dark Knight vs The Watchmen

Watchmen! I find TDK highly overrated. BB>TDK

i preffered watchmen to the dark knight,the dark knight is overrated.

but it won't win this because all the batty-boys will vote for batman.

I think both are overated.. But are alright in different ways

batman is my second favorite character ever after dick grayson and i have to say The Dark Knight is THE MOST OVERRATED MOVIE EVER MADE!!!!!!!!!!! if ledger never died it wouldve been seen as anothjer mediocre cbm and its not even the best movie in its series of movies batman begins is much much better....the watchmen on the other hand is in my opinion the best cbm eva made when it comes to loyalty to the comic and writing and direction and even acting

@ rocketico

its exactly the same when anything features batman,do ya remember the vs polls.

it didn't matter who he went up against batman vs spidey....batman wins.

batman vs superman..........batman wins.

batman vs galactus........batman wins.

some people don't think before they vote.

so let me see if i have this straight: if Batman wins it's not because hes a great caracter, has had two great movies in this decade, or even because he's one of the most iconic characters of all time. It's because of the "batty boys" but if anything else wins it's not because of their fans its because they just won right? [frick] you morons that think that way. Both movies are great, but The Dark Knight had Ledger, Oldman, and Eckhart in phenominal performances.

So what is this poll - which one sucks more? Tough question. They're both abysmal.

@marvel72 - you have a very valid point in the case of polls. Batman's background kind of makes it so in most polls he wins the fight. Batman can't beat everyone in DC or Marvel, but is kind of presented that he would have a way to stop or slow them down. But that same is set up for Superman, if he wanted he could snap almost everyone's neck in a second. In my opinion, most of the polls don't make sense, seeing how its hero vs hero.
But for this movie poll, its slightly (very slightly different). I will say TDK is most likely to take it for several reasons - Bigger fan following, Box Office results, Ledger and most people didn't quite understand Watchmen.
We live in a society where we complain about the length of a movie, regardless of quality, so to them Watchmen was too long. Most people didn't see why Rorschach died, I heard the word "stupid" far too many times. The complaint about the blue penis. And the whole concept of the planet only coming together out of fear of a greater threat went way over so many head (I summarized, but please see the point).
They both have a lot to offer and people should take into consideration Watchmen sold its self for the most part. Well Batman is on everything from fruit roll ups to clothing.

Both movies are great, and I very much enjoy what Nolan is doing with Batman, especially The Dark Knight. However I think that The Watchmen was better but only because Zak Snyder followed the source material so closely, the second the Collectors Edition came out I went out and got it and I do understand why they took the Tales Of The Black Freighter out of the final cut (it kinda slowed down the story, not to mention how much time it added to the movie) but it is truly Epic and Brilliant. The Dark Knight was fantastic but it just can't compare (in my eyes) to the awesome performances and just the overall amazing story of The Watchmen.

Are you [frick]ing kidding me?? 'Course TDK is superior in EVERYTHING!

WATCHMEN is the best CBM of all time. The Dark Knight was great too.
