The Avengers may be breaking box office records left and right, but one actor isn't quite convinced that Earth's Mightiest Heroes will be at the top of the heap for very long. Matthew Modine, who has a role in The Dark Knight Rises, claimed that the final installment of Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy will "...kick [The Avengers'] butt," while doing an interview with VH1's Big Morning Buzz. Check out what he has to say about the movie towards the end of the interview provided above. 

Those comments might not seem too inflammatory, but for comic book fans everywhere, them's fighting words. Most of you have probably seen Avengers at this point, so which movie do you think will be the best comic book flick of the summer? And is anyone brave enough to guess The Amazing Spider-Man?
