I noticed in The Dark Knight that Heath Ledger kept licking his lips alot.
I'd lick his balls if I were in the movie.

Batman Returns is my favorite Batman film, followed probably by Batman Begins and then the first Burton Batman ('89) film. I hated both Batman Forever and Batman and Robin. Both were atrocious films, a waste of time, money, and are a blight on the franchise. I may not like everything about the Nolan films, but the worst moments in any of the three are miles ahead in any of the final two 90s Batman flicks.
I don't know what is "the right height"
so if you know the exact measurements, please share.
maybe the actor is not as tall as bale/west, but during the movie keaton doesnt look out of place and abnormally small, so I see no problem.
I kinda like Batman Forever. A guilty pleasure of mine, its stupid but its ok.
And freyith, what things do you dislike about the nolan movies? Sorry to ask questions but no one ever seems to mention any thing they dont like other than bale's voice. And if they do they just get alot of shit from fanboys. I think they are great movies, but there were some things I didnt like as well. I think they over explain and over analyze every detail at times and leave nothing to the imagination. Where the burton films did the opposite and were more creative. but oh well, I like both series and they are both very different.
Anyway, I recently rewatched the dark knight after not seeing it for a long time and I actually appreciate it more after seeing TDKR. They are just really different from eachother. TDK being more of a traditional batman movie, with him in his city just stopping senseless crimes from the joker. Classic Hero Vs Villain. Where TDKR is a much larger movie, possibly even too big and bloated. But its the last film and had to have a plot that could carry the weight of a good conclusion.
Yeah I see what you mean, this was the first time they went in this direction and its cool to see, but in the end its still a guy dressing up as a bat based off comic books and theres a point where some things just dont need to be explained. Not hating on the movies though.The main thing that works for it is it's realism but it can also be its drawback at times. It explains how batman can do what he does through his gadgets and weaponry and is so grounded that when they have moments where something unrealistic happens, it makes you question the movie. Sometimes you just have to remember to say to yourself that it is a comic book movie.

I wondered what happend to The Scarecrow after that parking lot scene in The Dark Knight, like did he get arrested or did he walk free again?
Also Gary Oldman is the best Jim Gordan ever.
Batman Begins is still my favorite, I dunno, maybe I'll like Rises better when I actually get around to seeing it
Wierd thing about Dark Knight Rises though, its either getting overpraised as the greatest movie ever(which it's obviously not and has problems) or getting over criticized in a very vauge way without much explanation. Much like the post above me. I guess cause its popular and fun to hate. I suggest not reading the reviews and just go see it.
Havnt seen rises yet? I suggest you stay away from anything batman related till you see it. Cause when it was new, it almost seemed like people were getting payed to spoil it for others. Thats how bad it was. Now most people just assume that everyone's seen it cause its been out for a while, so even more spoilers. Thankfully I saw it at midnight and didnt have to worry.

Anyways, am I the only one who kinda felt bad for the joker at the end? When he gets caught he sounds like he's about to cry. I've always kinda wanted him to just die at the end by falling off, but I guess batman realized that he wanted that too and wouldnt let that happen. So now joker's gotta be in "APADDEDCELLFOREVER". Seriously, when batman says that he sounds so stupid. Sounds like he's saying "you'll be in a vat of jello forever"
Probably the massive expectations for it pre-releases are the reason why the reactions to it are so divisiveWeird thing about Dark Knight Rises though, its either getting overpraised as the greatest movie ever(which it's obviously not and has problems) or getting over criticized in a very vauge way without much explanation.
