Dark knight 2 is also great, but terminator 2 great? Dunno. Its close. Only problem is that t2 has such a strong musical score. The acting in dk is arguably slightly better, but it lacks that certain magic only a great orchestral background can give. Its probably in the top 5 most recognizable musical theme in moving history. Dun dun dun da dun.
and while dk had that cool gritty realism brought on by the cruel madness of joker, t2 feels more real and human though thats a subjective preference. Joker is clearly a better villain, as far as evil tropes go, but again subjectively more fearsome than an unstoppable killing machine who looks human but has no human qualities.
What I think is really unsettling about the t-1000 is that its a synthetic without uncanny valley. |
The Dark Knight wasn't as strong for the simple fact that unlike T2, it was ALL Ledger. Every single scene he was in, he stole the show. That's all you watch that movie for. T2 was more complete imo.
The Dark Knight certainly belongs in the "best sequel" argument though.

That's a great point and one I was going to bring up as well. Ledger is really the whole draw of the movie, everything else not so much.
