Re TDK, because that seems to be what everyone's talking about: I thought it was well done but the underlying message I'm not so sure I'm happy about. And I'm not saying that because "dark" bothers me. It doesn't. And I won't say more for those who haven't seen it.
I do find it interesting that Batman is becoming so much more popular than Superman, and personally, I attribute that trend to the fact that Batman is a normal human being who saves humanity through being really rich and having amazing technology. Therefore, we don't need aliens to save us, because we'd much rather believe we can save ourselves, through our inventions and our financial wizardry.
