Dark Knight for me; never been a particularly big Star Wars fan.

Michael Ironside's master class in scenery chewing makes that movie a delightful must see. :up:

Never been a Star Wars fan. Guess you had to have grown up with it or something.

TDK for the win. This is the movie series I'll be telling my kids I saw in theaters.

The Dark Knight.

I have a very low enjoyment of anything Star Wars now, mainly due to having seen it so often in the past. Doesn't resonate at all anymore, it's just sort of there when it's on the TV.

I grew up with Star Wars, and still not a big fan. Bats all the way.

The correct answer is always The Thing!

Also never a big Star Wars fan, TDK gets my vote.

Not even close, ESB.

It's a tie for me I think. It's hard for me to choose one. Although if Puppet Master 2 were in the poll, it would wipe it's taint with both of these movies. Highlander 2 and Puppet Master 2 would definitely be a more difficult choice since they are both the greatest movies ever.

Also, I am too much of a wimp to even lay eyes on The Dark Twikoff Streaks Black. Yikes!!

ESB.

I may watch TDK more cuz I personally like Batman more than SW..but ESB beats the shit out of TDK in quality. Thunderous lightning in a bottle that can barely contain it from shattering.

This...ESB or Godfather II would have been a better/closer poll. That said TDKR is better than ROTJ, if that makes the OP happy. :)

So good it even beats itself, apparently.

Wow, some of you are actually comparing the Star Wars films to The Godfather films now? I didn't know nostalgia bred insanity as well. It's fucking Star Wars. :lol:
