The Dark Knight Trilogy vs Marvel´s Daredevil - The Better Writing

So far which product has the better writting?

The Dark Knight Trilogy or the Netflix Daredevil Series?

Daredevil in stomp.

Daredevil.

Dark Knight imo, but Bale's voice was horrible.

Nolan trilogy, definitely.

Dark knight trilogy

DD.

1. The Dark Knight
2. Daredevil season 1
3. Batman Begins
4. Daredevil season 2
5. The Dark Knight Rises

Daredevil. But it has an unfair advantage. Because a season of Daredevil is, for all intents and purposes, a 13 hour film. Because of this, the story has more room to breath and the conclusions roll in nicely and organically. Because of the limited runtime of a film, The Dark Knight, for example, had to force their characters into their designation locations, sacrificing strong writing.

That, and The Dark Knight Trilogy had stupid aspects like The Joker's ridiculous 11 step plan, the far fetched Harvey Dent using a coin to decide people's fate, and a lot of mediocre writing in The Dark Knight Rises.

Nolan Trilogy

Dark knight trilogy

TDK Trilogy easily.

That's my order.

This. People are just ready to say DD because its not "overrated"

Daredevil 2 out of 3, TDK is the exception.

DD

Daredevil.

The Dark Knight trilogy was ruined by the last movie

TDK.

Daredevil wouldn't be the way it is without Nolan's trilogy

DD.

They're both great but I'll go with the Nolan Trilogy

Dark Knight Trilogy easily

Daredevil.

Definitely The Dark Knight trilogy. Even though Daredevil is the best written comic book TV show out there, it trails in comparison to The Dark Knight trilogy's writing.

In both of them it was good acting that stood out more than good writing and that is what really carries the show and the trilogy. For writing I would give the edge to DD.

The Dark Knight trilogy by far.

Dark Knight Trilogy solidly.

TDK and this is not even close.

It's not really unique or hard for Netflix DD to adapt it's narrative mostly from the source material. Aside from Fisk and Bulleye, most of the characters in DD and their narrative are mostly homogenous towards what has already been written in comics. Heck, S3 is like a facsimile edition of Born Again to the most extent.

EDIT: It's not the same case for TDK's trilogy.

Uhhh.... who's gonna tell him?

?

The trilogy. DD definitely has weaker points.

Daredevil. Fisk's backstory fleshing out his motivations and his relationship with his father juxtaposed with Matt's childhood and his father/son relationship, Karen, Foggy, Matt's freakin' Mum and most side character's being complex and interesting and how the interlope with the story just puts it over TDK trilogy. Narrative/theme wise it's strong but the characters aren't as well rounded like Catwoman who just had a...clean slate story that got ignored, Lucius Fox who can be summed up as 'Loyal, smart and morally exemplary guy' and nothing else: we don't know his backstory, his motivations to do the right thing with the microphone scene was nice but we needed more, like far more...anyway film is restricted to several hours at most whereas TV has plenty of time to flesh out everything so perhaps the comparison isn't fair but Imma do it anyway since the question is about the writing.

The Dark Knight's narrative is based mostly from the source material, exactly like Daredevil is. They're both comic book adaptations of popular characters

zzzzzzzz

Harvey Dent's character has a lot of different interpretations and narratives compared to what actually happened during Long Halloween. Heck, Rachel Dawes doesn't even exist as a lover. They were just close friends and nonesoever was she connected with Harvey. lol

Ra' Al Ghul, Talia, and even Bane have very different relationships. I mean the entire League of Assassins have different motivations.

Joker is more different and unpredictable character than comic book Joker.

Batman's character background during Begins is actually differently written from what actually happened.

Now if you are going to compare them with current comics than they have similarities in certain ways especially with Talia.

That's one of the reasons I said: "mostly from source material". It's like the facsimiled the whole thing of S3 from Born Again.

No, just no. Slight differences from the source material doesn't negate the fact it's clearly designed with a foundation in the Batman mythology. Christopher Nolan, David Goyer, etc have all literally gone on record endlessly explaining their inspirations for the Dark Knight trilogy ranging from Year One, The Long Halloween, No Man's Land, and even the original 1940s pulp comics. A few character relationships being a little different does not, by any conceivable stretch of the imagination, change this. If it does than Daredevil is equally different since they changed dozens of character motivations and comic storylines. Including the "facsimile" Born Again adaptation in Season 3 which, in the comics, didn't include Bullseye, didn't have Matt end up impersonated, there's no detective named Ray Nadeem, had no Vanessa love triangle, etc.

Seriously man, I'm at a complete loss for how you came to your conclusion.

@mutant1230:

LOL, They are not just slight differences and they are a LOT different in terms of what narrative/story and characterization have been used based on adaptations from comics that you have mentioned and in Batman comics in general.

Those relationships personified Two-Face vs Batman during TDK. BRUH

Daredevil had a lot of similarities with character from comics.

Bullseye was only replaced by Nuke to kill Daredevil. He was hired by Kingpin just like in comics. Heck, the whole storyline resonates with Born Again. Therefore YES it was a facsimile edition of Born Again more or less.

@vishop_: Your personal preferences are your own, but that's a pretty silly reason to dislike the show, when the trilogy has done the exact same thing. Both draw inspiration from the comics and put their own spin on it.

S3 is not a Born Again dupe. Dunno where that is coming from.

Nobody really said Daredevil was a bad series or I disliked it but the narrative of DD especially the 3rd season is a LOT similar from Born Again. Therefore before judging someone else because they have a different perspective don't jump into conclusion.

@brucerogers: Now if you are asking which has a better storyline Miller's Born Again or Nolan Batman then I would have easily chosen the first one.
