Only good thing about Nolan bat is the joker. Everything else is zzz 💩nah fuck you, first ~30 minutes of begins is great
What I don't get is why Nolan ever bothered with Batman. He's too damn serious to make comic shit work. It makes no sense. Burton at least actually likes dark fantasy worlds, like the Batman universe.
Nolan's films are cool to see the 'what if Batman was really real' Batman but other than that... meh
Batman Begins is nearly completely forgettable. Even the beginning, which many people seem to love, isn't noteworthy to me.Bull.Fucking.Shit on the bolded. Tom Hardy's incredible physique makes it A tier alone.
The Dark Knight was dope but you quickly realize there are a lot of parts that just suck in hindsight. The boat stuff, Two Face v Gordon, etc...ugh. The Joker is amazing though.
TDKR has no redeeming qualities.

“I’m kind of a logic freak,” he said. “I don’t know how to do anything unless I have a logic to it. It can be the silliest, stupidest, broadest thing, but I have to work from somewhere.”
Keaton encountered a serious logic problem during his first scene shooting as the Caped Crusader, in which he confronts a criminal in a dark alley.
“There’s no way this guy doesn’t just look at me and say, ’That’s Bruce Wayne, everybody! I figured it out!'” he said with a laugh. “’It’s obviously you! You’re four feet away from me!'”
Burton and Keaton explored a few different ways to preserve Batman’s identity in the scene, from the way he was positioned, to the use of contact lenses. Ultimately, the only thing that made sense to Keaton is if Batman used a different voice than the famous Gotham City playboy.
“I had to do something,” he said. “I had to drop down a register. Then I learned, later, that it became a thing [for future ’Batman’ movies].”
wtf is this offensive bullshit
Billy Dee Williams was Harvey Dent, not the mayor.
And he took the role because he wanted to play Two Face.
Thankfully, they dumped him and Marlon Wayans (and WB paid them both off) to get white guys back in those roles for Batman Forever saving the film and franchise.spoiler (click to show/hide)Also, Batman Returns. :drool[close]
Keaton* and Kilmer do change their voice to be more gravely and such while Batman vs. when Bruce Wayne btw. It's not just the over-the-top growl that Bale grows into.
Bale's isn't that absurd insane in most of Begins either. (Best part is all the times in the three movies that Bale uses his Batman voice in private conversations with people who already know he's Bruce Wayne.)
Clooney doesn't, which I assume is a homage to Adam West.

Didn't know that.There's a different cut of Forever that's "darker" where Two-Face is less of a goofball and starts off the movie having murdered a bunch of people to escape Arkham. Even Carrey's Riddler is slightly different and a bit less wacky as it shows more of his planning out things. WB or whoever didn't even let Schumaker put all the cut scenes on the various DVDs. IIRC, there's zero alternate takes or deleted scenes of Carrey and only a handful of Jones'. A bunch of Kilmer/Kidman/O'Donnell though.
It's funnier cause Tommy Lee Jones' Two-Face was so pointless.
It has a sense of fun and not taking itself too seriously.This right here is my biggest problem with a lot modern superhero movies. Get that pretentious shit out my face, trying to make me take seriously a bunch of autists running around in spandex costumes doling out betamax vigilante justice and trite pseudo-badass one-liners (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfFbxIHBdjo). Shoehorning corny grimdark fantasizing into comic book universes will never work for me, sorry. Deadpool and The Avengers are corny in their own rights but so much more self-aware and thus more platable than shit like Nolan Batman.
Batman Begins is nearly completely forgettable. Even the beginning, which many people seem to love, isn't noteworthy to me.This is where I'm I'm at. I don't like Nolan's batman's but Begins was at least coherent, and The Dark Knight had like 1 really good hour in it. TDKR is actually a really bad movie.

Am I allowed to like both? :-[ TAS and Adam West Batman are wonderful as well.
Nolan Batman being dark is fine, but the whole "grimdark comics stories for adults!!" angle has been beaten so far into the ground at this point.
Didn't know that.
It's funnier cause Tommy Lee Jones' Two-Face was so pointless.
