Well, seeing this many people are not including Rises as their favorite movie from 2012, I figured I would make a poll to see exactly how many people in here think like that.
I have to admit it's a bit surprising because for example on IMDb Rises got far better ratings than any other films this year except Django which will most likely fall down bellow Rises as well after a while. You have to expect a similar result in a Nolan fanbase.
I saw a couple of excellent movies this year, but when it comes to which movie I loved so much that I saw it multiple times, only TDKR wins that honor, and thus it gets my vote for best movie of the year.
