And here's to hoping he makes it a truly quieter film as he says the sequel should be.

Outside of the fact that they are both rooted in comics, they really don't have much in common. It's that divergence that celebrates, I think, how far we've come in the relevance of comic book adaptations. Both are brilliant in their own right, for different reasons. Even Whedon doesn't get it: "let's look at the bigger picture, and I can't say this enough: THIS IS NOT A ZERO SUM GAME. Our successes, whoever has the mostest, are a boon to each other. We're in the business of proving that superhero movies aren't just eye-candy (they're eye-TRUFFLES!). People seem intent on setting us against each other, and though I'm proud to be Woody Strode to Nolan's Kirk Douglas, I think they're missing the point. Whatever TDKR does on its first weekend, the only stat that matters to me is the ticket I'M definitely buying." (http://whedonesque.com/comments/28797)

Dark Knight Rises awesome. The difference is the Avengers is a pure popcorn movie and the Dark Knight trilogy are films with some popcorn movie qualities. 30 years from now in terms of Superhero movies the Dark Knight trilogy will be regarded as The Godfather or Goodfellas of the Superhero genre. The Avengers will be more looked upon like a Scarface. Still a great entertaining movie, but it doesn't carry the same kind of weight and doesn't age as well as some of it's peers.

This is from a big Joss Whedon fan. He's a great writer. Movies, television, comics. He can do it all.

And yes, The Avengers was pretty much perfect. The Dark Knight Rises was awful, a case of the emperor's new clothes.

"The Avengers" was pretty much perfect. Whedon did a fantastic job.

Ok I am jumping to conclusions, sure, but The Avengers is not an immensely rewatchable film like the Batman trilogy so there's that…
