Which Chris Nolan film do you prefer?

I prefer Insomnia because it was a great crime drama and Hilary Swank was a great leading lady I don't know why Nolan didn't use Swank in the recent Batman films but I must confess I've never seen The Memento or The Following from beginning to end I've seen bits and pieces but that's it.

The Dark Knight, all the way.

I love that movie more than anyone should.

The Dark Knight and Memento were both damned fine flicks. I guess I'll vote Memento because everyone else will vote for TDK.

I haven't seen Following and Insomnia, but out of the rest I'd have to say Memento in first and the dark knight in second. The Prestige is pretty damn cool too though. Scarlett is pretty hot too.

The Dark Knight. One of my favorite movies of all time.

Memento was a stunning piece of film making. The Dark Knight was a good film, but I don't think it really compares to Memento which is truly one of the most innovative films in recent decades.

Easily Memento.

I'll join the Memento voting group for reasons Miriel stated.

Memento is one of the most intelligently concieved movies ever made but I would say The Prestiege is his most enjoyable.

I'll guess I'll say The Dark Knight, since I haven't seen any of the others, aside from Batman Begins, which I thought was awful.

Memento was pretty neato.

Momento by a mile.

I couldn't stand Momento. Actually it's the only one of this guys movies I've seen and I just got so sick of watching it. I turned it off.

I've only seen Memento and the Batman flicks, so I can't rate 'em all. However, I've never seen a Nolan film I didn't enjoy, and they all have their own strengths. Memento is a great murder-mystery-cum-mindsmurf, and I'd count it as a 'must-see'.

Erm... The Dark Knight? That movie just rocks my socks off... Literally!

Ironically, Memento has more votes than TDK.

I dislike that there's been no love shown for Batman Begins and The Prestige; those were also fine flicks. I can't really choose a favourite.

I've actually enjoyed all of the films up there with the exception of Following, which I have not seen. Memento just did it a little more than the rest.

Hmm. =/ I've seen Memento, Batman Begins, The Prestige, and The Dark Knight. I agree with Miriel and what she said about Memento, but if the question is which movie is your favourite, I'd have to go with The Dark Knight. But they're all great, which is quite an accomplishment for him. I'd also like to give a little more love to The Prestige. :heart: :heart: :heart:

I really recommend Following for all those who liked Memento. It really works as a sort of spiritual prequel, in that it's a crime drama that fools around with chronological events.

Anyways, in terms of film making, I love Memento. But because I'm a total Batman-sexual, I'm gonna toss in a vote for The Dark Knight. Batman Begins was good, but TDK just blows it out of the water on every level.

smurf!

Memento, Insomnia, and The Prestige were SO smurfING GOOD. I don't even know. So I picked Memento.

I just saw Memento and Following a few days ago and I didn't like them I thought they were overrated. I prefer Insomnia, The Dark Knight, Batman Begins and The Prestige...I hope Nolan's next film (Inception) turns out well.

I really can't stand Memento, when I was a Chief of Staff at a movie theater, my management (all four of them) were obsessed with this film and made me watch it with them during close every bloody night. Because of them, I can't stand Memento or Requiem For A Dream cause I had to watch both flicks every night with them...

Of the three other films I've seen, The Prestige was pretty awesome but I have to give it to the man for resurrecting Batman with Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. Any man capable of resurrecting a franchise after something like Batman Forever and Batman and Robin is truly a miracle worker.

Still haven't seen the dark knight. D:

I haven't heard of any of them except for the two Batmans and I'll vote for Begins because I prefer it over Dark Knight not that Dark Knight is bad, but i just prefer more emotion than action in my comic-based movies.

I've only seen Dark Knight and Memento. I prefer the Dark Knight by a fraction.

You take that back this instant. Nimoy is far superior than anything you could ever dream to become.

I'm guessing Cuchulainn knew that already and was simply posting for the sake of drawing out a reaction.
