    By some respected accounts, The Social Network is the best film of the decade. Weird to see it fighting in a tiebreaker in Round 3.

    No, I don't think that but it should be part of the playoffs for sure. And this is not The Dark Knight, this is The Dark Knight Rises. A much weaker follow up.

    It is weaker.. BUT still an amazing film and great close to the trilogy.

    One of the best films of the decade vs Nolan's worst film.

    Sorry, Nolan, but Social Network for me. My thinking is that if it were TDK, that would've been a no-brainer. But TDKR is the weakest of the trilogy and I can't get excited about voting for it.

    I'm a Nolan mark, but Social Network is clearly the better film. It helps that I'm a Fincher mark too. While SN isn't as good as The Game, Fight Club or Seven in my opinion, it's still pretty damn good.

    I mean, I love The Dark Knight Rises. It's great. Social Network is good too, but I definitely don't love it the way others seem to.

    I remember being pleasantly surprised that the RLM guys really liked TDKR when I thought they'd hate on it too.

    Huge Tom Hardy fan and I might watch a few minutes if DKR is on cable but no where near the level of the first two films for me so a letdown. SN is a good film but it's not something I really find myself wanting to watch ever again. Great performances though....
