Should have called it The Dark Knight Returns.
Please, don't hurt me!
But, he didn't really return. He kinda...left.
I'm absolutely certain TDKR was named such to wholly capitalize off of the popularity of TDK.
How about The Dark Knight Rises for 11 minutes of screen time.
It sounds better than Batman Rises
Also all the metaphors don't work with any other title
I didn't like the title when I first heard it, but now I do. I think that makes me a Nolancompoop.
It's better than thinking Burton made good Batman movies.
Now why are you going to go and do that?
To hurt people's feelings and make them think I'm a bad person.
