The Dark Knight was also overrated, but not nearly as much as Iron Man. The Dark Knight was also just an action movie, and nowhere near a masterpiece. It should have ended like 20 times. Ledger was awesome, but my bias towards Bale and Michael Caine have me giving them the vote for stealing the show. Now, I'm not saying that this movie wasn't amazing....I mean, come on.....Christian Bale is in it.

My definition of a "film," is something that really is a work of artistic genius. Something that shows real feeling was put into it. Something that can just use it's story to move things along, and not rely on action scenes for this. And when there is action, it actually makes sense, and fits the story. Something that can actually make you feel for the characters. Some examples of what I call films are; "There Will Be Blood," "Rescue Dawn," "Casino Royale," "Requiem for a Dream," "The Fountain," and "Gone Baby Gone."

So, I would not classify either of these movies, "films."

Winner: The Dark Knight.

The Dark Knight was more overrated.

I would rate the top 5 comic book films as:

Batman Begins
The Dark Knight
X-2
X-Men
Blade 2

Iron Man would be #6

I disagree with the better music in Iron Man. Ozzy and AC/DC are good but they took away any serious tone the film would of had. Iron Man doesn't have a car so you mean his suit. Batman wou

Actually, I thought about that, but I was basing it on Tony Stark vs Bruce Wayne, not Batman vs Ironman.

Better movie: agree
Cooler movie: Iron man's suit was probably one of the coolest things i have seen, but the whole bank heist/batpod/truck flip scene i think was cooler. I say a tie.
better villain: easily tdk
better rich guy: i'll agree with this one, but they are very different. Stark is a billionaire playboy, he enjoys it. Wayne is a troubled person, who acts as a billionaire playboy, if he had a choice he would not act that way.
better women: yeah pepper potts was better than rachel dawes
better story: easily tdk
better cars: stark's car collection was definitely awesome, but i would take the batpod/tumbler over any of them if you count them as cars. If not iron man;s is better
better music: tie. Love the rock of iron man, but also love the score from the tdk.
better omg! tdk, there really wasn't an omg! moment in iron man, tdk had a few, the pencil, rachel blowing up, truck flip, skyhook, joker reveal
