Dark Knight by a hundred thousand miles, but Predator is more quotable.

I think dark knight was better for me. I saw it in the theaters. I saw predator on reruns on my grandparent’s tv. I think it still had an antenna.

I'll say it, I thought The Batman was superior to any of the Nolan films.

Very well cast, nailed a "serious Gotham" and actually showed Batman as a detective.
 
If you just read the plot points of the dark knight it looks like it was written by a fifteen year old. Very sloppy.

Predator is a man's movie.
 
Both legendary films, which do you think is better?


The Dark Knight - plot summary:

Set within a year after the events of Batman Begins (2005), Batman, Lieutenant James Gordon, and new District Attorney Harvey Dent successfully begin to round up the criminals that plague Gotham City, until a mysterious and sadistic criminal mastermind known only as "The Joker" appears in Gotham, creating a new wave of chaos.

Batman's struggle against The Joker becomes deeply personal, forcing him to "confront everything he believes" and improve his technology to stop him. A love triangle develops between Bruce Wayne, Dent, and Rachel Dawes.


Predator - plot summary:
A team of special force ops, led by a tough but fair soldier, Major "Dutch" Schaefer, are ordered to assist CIA man, Colonel Al Dillon, on a rescue mission for potential survivors of a Helicopter downed over remote South American jungle.

Not long after they land, Dutch and his team discover that they have been sent in under false pretenses. This deception turns out to be the least of their worries though, when they find themselves being methodically hunted by something not of this world.










The Predator easily.
 
Dark knight is alright.

I've watched predator about 20 times. It's actually the best film ever made by a long way.

TDK blew me the hell away when I saw it in theaters. It was AMAZING and lived up to the sky high expectations wonderfully. There were very few issues I had with it. Off the top of my head, I can remember only 3.

Predator has always been a sweet movie, but it never hit me like TDK hit me.
 
I think putting TDK up against Predator 2 would be a more fair match up.

Predator 2 for me. Even though I can at least accept why some would like TDK better. I can't be objective about Predator 2. I saw it in theatres, and I LOVE that movie and watched it at least a thousand times on VHS in the early 90s.

I think it would be a toss up. Personally I'd probably go TDK, but I'd have to really think about it. I loved Predator 2.
