Also 7. There is one part of the film that I can't seem to find in the OST that was my clear favourite.

Really? Batman Begins is a rather boring movie that could used some editing, if I had seen BB before TDK, I might have been hesitant to see TDK, heck it was my wife who made the big push for TDK, even with not seeing BB. I means it competent and not like Avatar, but suffers from to much establishitis.

Might have to check for the bonus tracks if you can't find it.
Really annoyed by that. Opted with the CD, but I'm pretty sure there's a track on the Digital version I really want. Hoping they release em' eventually for free like they did with Inception.

also, the amount of TV actors playing small parts in this movie is hilarious
some The Wire favourites show up

he's holding his cards close to his chest
The OST is basically 21 tracks at the moment, clearly there is going to be an extended cut at some point.

I was talking about your 'self-proclaimed movie gods' post.
TDKR is easily better than The Avengers, so there's no worries there.

Saw a midnight screening here in Australia last night, very, very good movie, can't see how anyone could be disappointed. Definitely follow bluebirds advice though, make every possible effort for nothing to be spoiled!
Is there any Marvel film you would put above DKR?
1. I've always taken it as it was a small part of a bigger play, and that one scene was enough to freak out Bruce.
2. Theatricality and deception are powerful weapons.
I actually don't know lol

Hmm. I don't know. I need more time to digest the film before deciding, but at this moment I don't believe any Marvel film is better than TDKR.
1. I never said gods, thats just shira carrying my joke forward
2. I know you liked TDKR. Its just your taste is really weird, just reinforcing that.

1. I was thinking that his dad didn't know it bothered him, and what bothered him was he fell down a well. Bruce may not have mentioned to his dad about the bats.
2. Secrecy, I suppose. Since Henri Ducard is Ra's, it's all an act to hide that with Watanabe speaking in a different language.

you should watch TDKR again, this time in a bigger IMAX screen. David Poland and the IGN reviewer said they would have rated it higher after they saw it again
I think we're on the same wavelength. I'm not going to go nuts about a 7/10, the only thing I worry about is having a bastard child in the series, which apparently isn't the case here.

Don't think you can go much bigger (if any) than Sculli's IMAX screen :lol
He'd have to build one then, brick by brick.

I think my question answered that for the most part. Besides this series, few independent comic films, there really isn't much else out there.

Just saw TDK again. Yeah...I think this is just a much much better film than Batman Begins. While Begins had that great training scene and also the one right after it where Ra's talks about his wife, it has nowhere near the level of suspense that TDK had (I'm talking about the scene when Joker is offing the commissioner and the judge and going after Dent, that whole sequence combined with the music is just awesome entertainment. Or the interrogation scene leading up to the botched rescue)
TDK just feels like the more impressive movie to me, and really The Joker makes a huge difference in this series. People were disappointed that there was less Batman in it, but he's boring compared to The Joker anyways. At least in Nolan's series I'd say. And Harvey Dent's arc, while rushed, is still pretty good closure.
And dat ending. People are raving about the last 5 minutes of Rises but I have a hard time believing it can top this one's. Feels like a legitimate series ending. (and please don't contradict this statement, I'll wait until I've seen it rather than hear impressions of the new one)
Only thing I can really give Begins over this now is it's soundtrack.

No, definitely not a Spider-man 3 scenario. It really is more like the RotJ of the series.

The answer to your question is "Yes", absolutely. It's also a better film than Batman Begins and is perhaps equal to or better than The Dark Knight, save for the latter's Joker who, let's face it, is an all-time classic movie villain who's impossible to top.
That's great. RotJ and Last Crusade are probably close to what I was anticipating anyway.
Seriously. I just want another solid installment. That's it. I want a satisfying end.

I think Nolan's biggest failing in the film is definitely the fan service. Where in BB and TDK it was as if he gave fans what they never knew they wanted, TDKR feels like Nolan has become a slave to the fans.
1. First Class is FOX.
2. Don't make me fucking LOL.
