[QUOTE="retKHAAAN, post: 4325739, member: 164902"] inorite? Like Alien and Aliens or Die Hard and Die...Harder or Batman and Batman...Returns and Batman...Forever? I'm not sure what is meant by "People came away from both movies focusing on the villains" It's a popcorn movie. It seems fact that it's the closest a popcorn movie can come to a real drama has presented some unrealistic expectations regarding its story and content. Where was the character development in The Avengers? Batman Begins: Who is Bruce Wayne and how did he come into being Batman? The Dark Knight: At what lengths will Batman go to catch a criminal who has pushed him to question what he will and will not do to protect Gotham? The Dark Knight Rises: Can an aging and broken Bruce Wayne rise to challenge a terrorist bent on the destruction of Gotham and find the will to put on the mask once more? I think that buying into any sort of hype ahead of a film release is what kills enjoyment for the viewer. I enjoyed Batman Begins. It was an interesting way to "reinvent" Batman on the big screen. I enjoyed The Dark Knight. Ledger was definitely a huge part of that movie, but for me, Harvey Dent/Two-Face has always been one of my favorite characters in seeing how the evil and corruption can warp a good man. TDK also showed us a Bruce Wayne who really wasn't sure if he could do it anymore and his want to find someone else who could. I enjoyed The Dark Knight Rises. It ties quite neatly into the previous two movies. Hardy did quite well with Bane and the way Bane and Thalia/LoS were tied together was satisfying, imo. Christian Bale [i]is[/i] Bruce Wayne. By far, the best portrayal of Wayne to date in being both the billionaire playboy and the dark knight. Keaton was a decent Batman and Kilmer was actually a passable Wayne, but Christian Bale is both. Michael Caine being under-used was really the only "negative" thing I have to say about TDKR. Honestly, I would've like to see Alfred welcome Blake to the Batcave and say something like "I thought we might start with a little base-jumping"...credits... :P I didn't go into any of these movies expecting them to be epic or even as good as the last. Just wanted to see where the story went and how these characters were translated to film. TL;DR I think we got the best Hollywood could give us as far as a trilogy of movies tying together Batman: Year One, The Long Halloween/Dark Victory, Knightfall, and The Dark Knight Returns... If only we could get a proper Death and Return of Superman film... [/QUOTE]
