As Bad Ass as i'm sure the Dark Knight will be 24 hours from now....

Yeah I have to admit that I am biased when it comes to the original because I grew up with it but I do have the feeling that when I re watch it I will see that The Dark Knight was way better lol,  one thing I know for sure is the theme song from the original cant be touched but yeah you guys are right, I am sure that when I see the original again I will realize how much better The Dark Knight is.

i  rewatched the original last night and the Dark Knight uses a few shots/scenes from the OG. Maybe those wer in the comic but they're in both movies as well.

one obvious one is when the Joker and Batman are in the street and the joker is saying "HIT ME" and batman misses on purpose and crashes. the only difference is batman was on a motorcycle and not the batplane

it's like how someone said earlier.....it depends on which comic book series you base it off of.

I never saw a comic book that Joker killed Batman's parents

I'm assuming I'm that someone Jacob was referring to.  I wasn't talking about the story but just the attitude of the comics/films.  Either way, it's pointless because the Dark Knight is clearly the better movie.  It's Best Picture nomination worthy. 

yeah exactly

Tim Burton's Batman is the bridge between the campy 60's  tv show and the more cartoony comics and the dark knight.....it wasn't as "dark" per se as the Nolan series but it was as Cartoony as past incarnations of batman. but it was an acurate portrayal. Nothing translates directly from print to movies exactly, and i can see why they had joker killing  bruce's parents. They did it to tie the Joker and batman together.

^^IMO the original is better though.  I thought The Dark Knight was awesome and definitely lived up to the hype,  I want to see it again already but I still have to Put the original Batman on top between the two but man Dark Knight was fantastic!

Probbaly cus it brings back memories since u saw it as a kid??? amybe thats why


I think each sound was good for that era
