i don't think it's necessarily due to which puts out characters better for movies, i think dc has had better directors for its movies.

I'll respectfully disagree with you on that. I truly believe it has more to do with the writers of the screen adapations then the actual directors.

Marvel has had some pretty good directors for their movies. Ang Lee is a tremendous director. Brian Singer, not bad either...but the story lines that they had to deal with were horrible. And they had to make due with what was given to them.

Take for example the Spiderman Series, great entertaining movie for with all the CGI and bright colors, but the storylines aren't all that interesting.

For an adult that grew up reading comic books, Batman Begins and The Dark Knight are far superior to the Spiderman franchise, The X-Men franchise, and now even the two failed Incredible Hulk movies. All had great potential in being great movies.

When you hear people discuss The Dark Knight, you hear them talk about the characters, the storyline, and then the effects...not the other way around.
