It's still a terrible point. The garbage Transformer movies usually out gross most movies they're up against. Shame we have untalented hacks like Michael Bay to pollute the theaters with that crap.
) and get chased by the cops forever (or until the truth came out).
None of us expected them to take it where they did. But looking back, what they did in TDKR was actually a logical path to follow considering how TDK ended.
He didn't "sacrifice" the image of Batman and turn Harvey into a martyr to run around beating up street thugs (he wasn't going after the Joe Chills in BB and TDK. He went after the big dogs like Falcone and Maroni. Thanks to Rachel
So for me, the characterization of Bruce Wayne and the story points (retiring after TDK, the Dent Act, Batman as a symbol/Batman can be anybody) in TDKR do not contradict the previous films.
Also, way back in an interview with Nolan during Batman Begins, he did say that he looked at Bruce's goal as an achievable one. Which he sort of repeated in a recent interview at the end here.
So did anybody manage to pick up a limited edition copy with the broken cowl/ anybody think their stores still have some? All my stores sold out
Yes, they did "totally suck". They're some of the worst movies ever made. Just absolutely terrible. Yet they out gross almost every other movie they're up against.
That's not true though.
What's comic accurate? A Ra's Al Ghul trained Bruce? Joe Chill getting murdered by a hit chick? An all black suit? Rachel Dawes? A paint wearing Joker? Two-Face dying a few days after becoming Two-Face? Mayor Garcia?
None of those things are comic accurate (whatever that is) and they're all in Begins and TDK, and I love those two films. Especially the ****ing Joker which is probably my favorite aspect of what Nolan has done.
My critiques, while I might have some faults with "accuracy" (like Bruce being Batman for less than a year) are completely based on the films faults on their own, not comic accuracy.
I don't like Bane, not because he doesn't have venom or can't roid up but because he sucks. He's written poorly and is cliched in my opinion. Look at those critiques up there where I criticize SCRIPT cliches and faults. That has nothing to do with comic accuracy.
I like the world that Nolan set up with Begins, I liked the heightened reality of TDK, TDKR just blew that all straight to hell in my opinion. It wasn't that it wasn't comic accurate, it was that it didn't follow the rules that previous stories set . . . for me. Big, grandois, Transformer "epicness". Nuclear bombs, cliched plot twists, "threequel" problems of contradicting or adding to things that weren't in the previous films. Characters completely changing from crying Alfred, to bloated "huh, Bruce Wayne is Batman" Gordon, to even Batman himself.
Those are my main gripes. Not, "ohhhh, THEY PRONOUNCED RA'S WRONG", "BLAKE DIDN'T WEAR A RED AND GREEN SUIT", "BANE HAZ NO VENOMZ".
You like Adolfo, and that's fine. I don't, other don't and it's not out of some perceived "comic accuracy", some just DON'T LIKE IT.
