Ah ok, I'm up to date then. I only just watched TDK on Sunday (saw BB years ago).Batman Begins (much of the footage at the start of the trailer, and liam neeson's voiceover is from this one)
The Dark Knight
The Dark Knight Rises

TDK was a good film, but quite a few irritating events in it.

It was a good film, I enjoyed it - but I do get irritated when parts of films don't make sense. Spoliers to follow:Absolutely love the Dark Knight. What parts irritate you?
It was a good film, I enjoyed it - but I do get irritated when parts of films don't make sense. Spoliers to follow:
1) when the joker is in jail and just wants to make his phone call. I didn't know what he wanted to do, but at the very least you'd imagine it was to call an order in to his gang. Under no circumstances would you let him make the call. And how he got out of jail - he's the most wanted criminal in the city, ever! So they just leave someone in the cell with him, with a key to get out. Pah.
2) the easy convenience of Dent's fall. His face getting burnt wasn't predictable, so you're just dealing with his life being chosen over his girlfriend's. More likely to stiffen his resolve than make him fall to the dark side.
3) at the end, it is important that Dent is seen as a hero - no problem there. So just say that the gangs killed him as he tried to protect the police commissioner. Easy to say that Batman is not the hero, Dent was, but no need to have the whole public and police force against him, as he tries to protect the city. Stupid, stupid, stupid
just little things like that, that irk, and stop it feeling like a great film.
I need to learn how to gloss over these things, they happen in too many films. It's really satisfying when you find a film that is enjoyable and stands up to some scrutiny though.Fair enough! I find it easy to gloss over those little bits myself so it doesn't tarnish the effect of the whole film.
The sequels were so god awful that it's easy to forget DH was a very good film. There must have been plenty better thoughFor me the Dark Knight is the best 'mainstream' Hollywood movie since Die Hard
