I have read allot of Spiderman, so while I was not overly familiar with Daredevil I was familiar with Kingpin. I am not saying you are wrong but I can not really remember the comics as so much darker than the movie when it came to Kingpin's character. Yes there where not so many sarcastic remarks but then there are not that many scenes where Kingpin is on screen.

As for Bullseye, I think they managed a balance, a very crazy character which work in a comic book is very hard to do on film without him getting goofy. I think perhaps that if they had made Bullseye more crazy then he would not be believable. There are not that many actors who can play crazy and get it creepy and not goofy.

I do not belong to the crowd that think everything is better if it is darker. Not that I dislike dark movies, but darker is not necessarily better, and when it comes to comic book movies I prefer them a bit adventurous and fun instead of them being to dark and depressing, especially when it is superhero movies.
