What The Dark Knight Rises has going for it is that it is the boldest of all three movies.
Anno just keeps cranking out them accounts!
t:
Woah, Rises is holding up pretty well. Where are all these Rises lovers when it comes to actual debates?
Put this poll on the front page of the SHH either now or in a few years time and the results would be more striking. In this TDKR forum it's just people who are still bothering to visit this corner of the larger forum at this point which are obviously going to include the most hardcore devotees of TDKR to shrink the gap.
I have been thinking the same thing. I know Anno, and Batlobsterrises are the most vocal of TDKR supporters on the hype. I guess you can lump me into that club too. Even though TDKR is my least favorite out of the trilogy, I am starting to think that perhaps objectively; it is the second best of the three.
Frankly, it's tiring TO debate over a film that people will just never enjoy, lol. I could argue 'til I'm blue in the face on why I think TDKR or even Watchmen are great films, but most of the time...posters won't even care. I've come down to that conclusion regarding many posters on these forums.
It gets tiring and definitely frustrating to be vocal at times. I haven't had a good debate with someone that is actually positive on their side of the argument without ending up sounding like a *****e, lol. And don't get me started on trying to speak my mind on the Spidey boards.
I definitely think there are a lot of posters that do enjoy TDKR, but they just don't want to get into debates on which film is better.

This isn't a battle or a war, you either like the damn movie or you don't.

Exactly.
I didn't frequent the Batman Begins or TDK boards that much after the films came out. Were there negative threads or as much arguing between posters over those films?
And yet, I'm scanning these last couple of pages and threads in here and don't even see any major negativity. Trying to bring it down a peg?
Who are these phantom posters, where are the posts of hate? I see Anno and Batlobster, stating what they usually state. People bringing up poll results. JackWhite getting excited that this message board poll is close. In other threads I'm seeing people are starting to get nostalgic from the trailers from last year, there are posts of Aaron Eckhart with a funko toy. Where are these haters at? These nitpickers and detractors? "Fighting the good fight?" This isn't a battle or a war, you either like the damn movie or you don't. LOL
You guys that love the film are really sending each other PMs telling each other it's all okay and reassuring each other? What? I don't even. Why all the defense? What's going on here?
You continue to believe TDKR is a "bad" movie. Even criticizing parts in TDKR where you tend to believe retcons BB when it in fact does not. Just plan ol' nitpicks you try to believe hurts a film.

TDKR while fun could arguably be called a bad Nolan film. Short of Insomnia it is easily Nolan's sloppiest half-assed work.
I've criticized it sure, but not this week, or last week, or the week before that, or the week before that.
I just looked at my post history, just now. The only thing close was that whole "Star Wars = Nolan Batman". I haven't even been in here that much. Look at the last couple of pages of this thread and other threads. Until today, how many posts by me do you see? How many are there of me ripping TDKR?

For the record, I dont think his ambition in in-camera effects are sloppy or half-assed. The man is ,and always will be a genuis in that area and he reached a new height in TDKR in terms of practical effects. I may find problems all over that film, but his effects work ain't one of those problem areas. That opening plane sequence floored me in the theater.

qftBB is the best. Then TDK gave us one of the greatest movie villains and another epic ending. TDKR is a hot mess.
true enoughBB is not the best, but I do think it's better than TDKR. It's a shame it's trailing so far behind in the poll.
TDKR holding up pretty damn well. Wish Fudgie was here to see this
