graphic novel doesn't necessarily equate superhero narratives. and regardless of what cronenberg may remember, history of violence was so much more profound and interesting than dark night rises that it bears no compatrison

I'm sorry, but I must respectfully call bullshit here. There are many Batman stories that are just as high in literary merit as violence, and the two are fully comparable. The lack of a cape and cowl on a main character does not make the story higher in literary merit.
I just think his criticisms show a surprising lack of insight, and a very narrow view on hits part. Which is disappointing since the guy is such a great filmmaker. Not that anything he's done has shit on Inception or the Dark Knight trilogy.
