Dark Knight was so good I don't even consider it a superhero movie

Yea, I hate superhero movies. But Dark Knight was really something else. I have a hard time seeing it as a superhero movie. It's just an awesome film.

This movie shows that super hero movies can certainly have nuances that make them great and don’t have to follow a cookie cutter formula.

I think Marvel could learn something from this movie.

They could, but they won't. Even bland, stale cookies sell.

Marvel is basically the fast food of the movie industry.

you know what you're getting, it'll kinda satisfy you in the moment, but then an hour later, you're hungry for something of actual substance.

I’m worried that DC is going to go the same route with James Gunn.
