Your Thoughts On the "Dark Knight" Trilogy
Here is how I rate the films: Batman Begins- 9/10: It was a near-perfect origin story that got the series back on track. This set the tone for a more realistic, gritty, dark crime saga that was sorely lacking in the previous Batman quadrilogy. There are more Bruce Wayne moments here, and it is compl...

Your Thoughts On the "Dark Knight" Trilogy
Now that TDKR is out for our consumption, we can finally analyze this series as an all-around trilogy. We have three distinct films to compare and contrast to, so what are your thoughts on the trilogy as a whole? First of all, I believe that Nolan's TDK saga has cemented its' place amongst the great...

RT Guesses ?
I'm changing my prediction to an 85%, if we keep getting these weak negative reviews I see this going the way of Inception (not that Inception got bad reviews by any means but that there was a studder in the positive reviews by some questionable calls for them to be considered "negative"). I'll lis...

No standout amongst the cast.
As someone mentioned earlier, Nolan tends to always feature strong ensemble acting across the board. Heath's Joker was just so completely brilliant that it had to stand out from the rest. Personally, one of the many reasons why I love Nolan's movies is that the acting is always top-notch across the ...

David M. Uslan @dmuslan With tears still flowing, I can honestly say The Dark Knight Rises is the greatest, most epic superhero movie ever produced. A masterpiece. I fully expect this to be my reaction after seeing it. I will be mentally drained, emotionally wrecked, yet completely amazed in bewil...

Maybe shift is too strong a word, maybe Nolan is simply the pioneer in a trend that might continue to grow if other filmmakers decide to embrace it. Absolutely, but I'm still waiting for it to happen. Perhaps Shane Black will bring something new to the table. Personally I think the filmmaker has to...

Here's the issue. In my opinion, we are witnessing a shift in the definition of a summer blockbuster. With Nolan becoming yet another king of the box office, summer movies are less dumb fun and more smart story telling. The problem is that reviewers' expectations of what a summer movie or for that ...

By Bane being "underwhelming", I have an uncomfortable feeling that all they mean is "no Heath Ledger". And by uncomfortable, I mean that it seems like some critics have decided to center all of their praise of TDK just on Heath Ledger, and pretending that without Heath it was somehow a mediocre mo...
