I believe TDK's score is a massive accomplishment for both JNH and Zimmer. It is so thematically rich and such an enjoyable score to listen to by itself. Yes, it works perfectly with the film and Nolan did a wonderful job of "directing to the music", but listening to it separately is just as rewarding if not more so than hearing it in the film.

I think that listening to the scores casually, The Dark Knight is the best. But for hearing it along with the film, Inception.

Apart from Time (which is up there as one of my top five tracks from a film), Inception's soundtrack is best suited for being alongside the film. While TDK is very easy to just listen to by itself, even for some of the more chaotic stuff such as Why So Serious.

It's not an opinion. It's a fact.

An attempt at humor, I suppose?

Inception or TDK, not sure which one is better. My favorite songs from both scores are: "Like a Dog Chasing Cars" and "Time", both are giving me eargasms.
Christopher Nolan isn´t the director the academy need, but he is the one the world deserves right now. And so they´ll ignore him, but he can take it. Because he is not an oscar winner. He is a silent moviemaker, a watchful screenwriter, A GREAT DIRECTOR.
