I've been into Levitt since Brick.

Well, also, I'm honestly not much of a fan of Bale or Hathaway in general, so Levitt really the only other option for main characters to be into.

You're a better man than me.

I mean, he was good on 30 Rock...but would you have ever thought he'd mature into what he's become?

Batman jr. · 07-20-2012, 08:28 AM

Great, we can discuss the love for Levitt here too.

CConn · 07-20-2012, 08:29 AM

Shut your yap.

Also, don't compliment MB again.

Batman4ever · 07-20-2012, 08:31 AM

For me it's "Rises" just barely above TDK.

unknownuser · 07-20-2012, 08:34 AM

TDKR definitely.
While the other two are not far from it, I felt this one was a more truer BATMAN movie of the series.
Can't wait till I see it again tonight

CConn · 07-20-2012, 08:37 AM

I can't wait to see what it's IMDB score is gonna be.

MagnarTheGreat · 07-20-2012, 08:38 AM

1) BB
2) TDK
3) TDKR

Jonah was wrong when he said the number of characters doesn't matter or whatever the exact quote was.

The Caped Knight · 07-20-2012, 09:38 AM

I love them all but the ranking is

1. TDKR
2. TDK
3. BB

JackN · 07-20-2012, 09:42 AM

I loved DKR because in a way it's all three...I can see what people say when they see DKR as a BB sequel. I do agree it is a BB sequel but also TDK served as DKR's catalyst. LIke a third film should be.

ThePhantasm · 07-20-2012, 09:43 AM

TDK was a better crafted film. But for all of its (minor) flaws, TDKR was a better BATMAN film. An amazing, enjoyable ride.

ciscostudent561 · 07-20-2012, 09:45 AM

My favorite is TDKR
not even close.

ElMariachi · 07-20-2012, 11:00 AM

Beginning--BB
Middle--TDK

The immediate ending of TDKR really tarnished my love for this franchise, it pains me horribly to say, TDK still takes the cake.

I'm not completely hot about that aspect, either.

munchie64 · 07-20-2012, 11:30 AM

I reckon it put the overall theme of the series to its perfect finishing point.

I still haven't decided what I think of the ending on the Blake side of things, though I liked how they ended it with Bruce. I thought the Robin reference was lame. But as a fan of Batman Beyond who can see elements of that story in TDKR... I'm a bit torn. Time will tell. First I need to see it again.

This is currently my stance on the Blake topic as well.

Doctor Jones · 07-20-2012, 11:54 AM

The Dark Knight.

The screenplay, the pacing, the performances, everything just came together perfectly and made it such a thrilling ride. The characters all found their worth and contributed highly to the overall plot, making it emotional. You were connected to all of them.

I can think of a couple of characters that could have been removed that didn't strengthen the story, just brought it down. *coughMirandaTateandDaggetcough*

Outside of his performance, I didn't find anything about that movie to be "wow"ing at all.

Good movie, sure, but I don't think it's the masterpiece it's made out to be.

DoomsdayApex · 07-20-2012, 12:07 PM

It's not even a contest:

The Dark Knight Rises

Brain Damage · 07-20-2012, 12:08 PM

I think with a few more viewings TDKR might become my favorite, despite a rocky beginning. However, as of right now it is still The Dark Knight.
