Thursday Morning Poll for April 10, 2008

Posted by Paul Clark

Well, that fairly well. In the first week of our new Thursday Morning Poll, our loyal Screengrab readers overwhelmingly selected The Dark Knight as their most-anticipated comic book movie of this summer. Coming in a distant second was the similarly awesome-looking Iron Man, with Hellboy II and The Incredible Hulk in a virtual tie at #3. Wanted proved to be singularly undeserving of its title, receiving no votes whatsoever.

To switch gears a bit, this week's poll was inspired by Tuesday's DVD release of Paul Thomas Anderson's latest magnum opus, There Will Be Blood.



And remember, sound off in the comments about your favorites.

I love Boogie Nights, but I feel like Anderson took the tone of the "Jessie's Girl" scene (totally coked up with firecrackers going off every ten seconds) and used it as a template for his entire subsequent filmography. Wow, does that guy need to relax.

Also I thought There Will Be Blood was totally overrated.

Want to hear more of my awesome opinions?

This was a bit hard considering how different 'There Will Be Blood' is from the rest of his films. But to me, 'Blood' is just such an amazing film, it would take best of almost any directors catalogue. I have heard a lot of the "overrated" arguments, and I have to respectfully but vehemently disagree. Come on, it's the complete story of America from founding to present times in 180 minutes!

@Peter Smith-Isn't that why we come here?
