Well if you put it that way why didn't they just pin all those crimes Dent committed on the Joker? I didnt come up with that myself, another KZreadr I watch did and he has a point. I get what they were trying to do with the hero sacrificing his credibility and good name for the greater good and all, it was effective and works with the story they were telling it especially works when your watching the movie on a first viewing but it doesn't make sense for Batman to take the fall himself, just blame on the Joker people will believe it and even if he denies those specific crimes who is gonna believe an insane person? Also did Batman taking the fall for Dent really help Gotham in the long run?

Tbh I'm not a massive fan of Gotham in Batman Begins. I dont really know how to explain it, I just think it's too brown in its colour palette and it's almost too steamy and stuffy. Its definitely better than Gotham in The Dark Knight and Dark Knight Rises, but its always been a bit too out of place for me in this trilogy. In terms of live action, I think Batman Returns has by far the best depiction of Gotham

My biggest issue is the chronology of Batman’s career as the caped crusader. If you pay attention, you notice begins he officially becomes Batman. By the end of the movie, we’re indirectly introduced to joker. (Gordon showing him the card). So Dark Knight takes place maybe a year tops from when begins ends. Dark Knight happens, and by the end of that, Batman disappears!! So he’s Batman for only 2 years before he calls it quits and leaves Gotham!! Wtf?? Then 8 years later Rises happens and that’s it! Think about it

Nolan was trying to deliver his own interpretation of Batman; a realistic batman. The Batman in the comics was pretty much a night patrol cop; constant night shifts, trying to stop random petty crime (the most recent 2022 Batman tackles this approach) Nolan's Batman was trying to stop crime systemically ; after the dent act there would be no need for a Batman anymore; being Batman nightly since after Begins was already taking a tole on Bruce, the average human couldn't handle that kind of load consistently for years.

“Batman Begin” is the best because in this movie, he really has a mysterious personality. He only attacks in the dark and does not even expose himself to the light and that is the most accurate character as a bat that only comes out at night and hide when the day comes. But in the 2nd and in the 3rd he doesn’t even maintain his mystique and the fear of the viewers whenever he lurks in the dark and attacks his target, batman is too showy. For me, Batman movies should be thrill and cause great fear to the criminals he will punish.

Yes, TDK did end off with Batman as a courageous symbol, with the hell him and his city went through and still managing to not break the bat . But him losing motivation after an 8 YEAR gap and forgetting his own moral code and why he is the symbol which he finally remembers later is the whole entire reason for TDK Rises. It’s for him to show the undefeated will have a downfall and a loss but will find it again and RISE .

I also love how batman returns explored that concept even furtner, showing Bruce Wayne's lack of identity outside of his crime-fighting alter ego. The only way he finds purpose in himself is when he is beating up criminals that are roaming the streets, and this mentality influences his emotional and psychological well-being. Selina and the penguin both reflect Bruce's twisted, fragmented psyche in some way. These films, including the recent batman movie, managed to delve into realistic topics while staying true to the gothic aesthetic that Batman is known for. The Nolan movies are just really good crime dramas with a Batman skin pasted on top. They may be a masterpiece in storytelling, but they fail hard in the world building department. It almost feels like a chore to watch them.

From Batman begins, it was always Bruce’s plan to retire after he inspired the creation of another symbol. The thing is TDK or the second act of a trilogy is to show all that can go wrong. So Batman inspires the creation of fake Batmen with hockey pads and shotguns. But then Bruce projects the symbol of the white knight onto Harvey Dent. And after that goes horribly wrong, he seeks to keep the symbol of the white knight entire while taking the blame for what he did. So in his mind his mission was accomplished, and he was set to retire.

I recently rewatched the trilogy and I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who felt something was off with the dialogue. It's just not realistic or believable and I always hate how these movies spell out their themes in dialogue (repeatedly) instead of being clever or subtle in their meaning.

Nolan's trilogy actually offends me as a Batman fan. The tone, the setting, the characterisations are so wide of the mark. Thankfully we have The Batman now for the purists.

Glad you brought up how it's never explained how Joker was able to get all those explosives on the boat. The funny thing about the Joker is that there's a longstanding history of how it's never explained how Joker pulls off all these stunts. How did he learn how to make Joker Fish? How did he manage to hijack the airwaves in the Burton film or the many, many times he did it in the animated series? The Joker is such a writer and fan favorite that no matter how ridiculous and far fetched the scenario, they write him into them because his personality is so entertaining. We, the audience, are simply asked to accept it and enjoy the way Joker interacts with Batman and others.

After watching The Batman thrice, I honestly couldn't agree more with this video. But most important of all, is that tdk trilogy wasn't a trilogy for batman, it was for his villains. That's were it fails for me the most, and when you compare that to the Batman it becomes more obvious which out of the two are actually the better BATMAN movie.

But the Batman has no agency in the Batman. He doesn't solve anything. He literally reads a riddle, answers it in five seconds and the riddler leads to exposition, to cop number 2 behind door number 3. Or to answers like "URL." I really tried to like the film. I'm not bashing it. But I watched it 3 times and couldn't find any agency from Batman. Whereas in tdk trilogy, Batman is constantly challenged by his villains and in tdk especially, he lets people die by not unmasking himself, he lets Harvey dent referral himself to be Batman, he lies and breaks his moral code several times while also finding a way to keep his code. So the villains consistently sharpen Batman.

And in the end he comes through and leads/inspires/protects/saves folks. Ultimately it's the best "BATMAN" flick. He holds the center (bonus killer chemistry with Selena). As a lifelong Batman fan I've always enjoyed every effort, but always... disappointed...ALWAYS annoyed with the clunky body-cast costumes. And with the Nolan Trilogy? Just too little Batman.

@@Michael-tf8om my friend, I've watched it 3 times trying to give it a chance. He doesn't solve anything. The riddler already has the answers. The answers are revealed to Batman, and not through merit. He reads a riddle and answers it in five seconds, but the riddle leads to exposition that the riddler already has access to. In one scene, Batman is in a club, looks at a picture with a girl with boots on, sees Selina Kyle walk in with the same boots, and walla, it's a "detective story." Even then, it's not selina in the picture. It's just a coincidence. "in the end he protects inspires and saves folks." People keep saying that. So let me ask you this. If the flood scene happened in the beginning of the movie, would Batman stand there and watch people drown? So you're telling me that he wouldn't save anyone? There's actually a scene in the beginning of the movie where Bruce actually saves someone from getting jumped. I get the intent that the director was heading for, but it was unconvincing. Just because he's saving people at the end doesn't mean he wouldn't do it anyway. If the script had given Batman choices throughout the film, clear choices, where he consistently chooses to seek vengeance instead of saving people, only to choose the right thing at the end, then I'd be convinced that he went thru internal turmoil. But none of that is suggested or even outright presented until the end of the film. In the dark knight, the joker gives Batman choices. "if you don't unmask yourself, I'll kill someone everyday." And in the interrogation "you let five people die, that was cold." The conflict is apparent and the audience isn't given room to imagine the choices. In the Batman he's never challenged to either save people or seek vengeance. It was one of the most unconvincing arcs in a good while. In the dark knight, the joker gives Batman a moral dilemma almost every twenty minutes where Batman has to choose the right mode of action. This I'd inherent in almost any other film. In this one, Batman is literally just walking around a crime scene, staring at a wall, and reading riddles.

I recommend rewatching the Nolan films. They definitely focus on Batman a lot. Especially The Dark Knight, which was about Batman breaking his moral code and choosing between his personal interests (Rachel) or the future of Gotham (Harvey Dent). He paid the consequences of his choice when he discovered Harvey instead, only just saving him to see him live long enough to become a villain. The Dark Knight Rises was literally about Batmans deathwish following the death of Rachel and how he must value his personal life. Alfred tells him numerous times that the world benefits more from Bruce than Batman but he's stubborn and he pays the price when he gets broken by Bane. His entire arc is about valuing himself as an empathetic human rather than a reckless vigilante, and it is only thru this realisation that he finds the motivation to escape Banes prison and save Gotham. It is plain wrong to say the Nolan Trilogy isn't about Batman. It definitely is and the villains were present to test and push Batman in various ways.

@@RayyanKhanRayyanKhan his stated desire in Begins was to create a symbol that will inspire the creation of other symbols. In the dark knight, like any act two, the protagonists desire is turned on its head or goes through a Murphy's lawesque filter. Multiple Batmen in hockey pads and shotguns emerge in Gotham. The joker rises. Bruce projects the false image of the white knight onto Harvey dent. By the end of the film, batman's own symbol is tainted, and doesn't have a chance to inspire the rise of other symbols until the dark knight rises when bane reveals the truth (i think that if heath ledger survived he would have been the one to reveal what Harvey dent really became). The dark knight rises is when his desire, to create more symbols, congeals into Catwoman and Robin. The joker puts Batman and Gotham through a series of moral dilemmas. "if this man isn't killed in an hour, I'll blow up a hospital. If Batman doesn't reveal himself a person will die everyday." He paints people into corners that they can almost impossibly escape. "you let five people die, you even let dent reveal himself to be Batman, that was cold, even for me." Bruce still finds a way to save Gotham without killing anyone, directly.

I think the Dark Knight movies are good, but not the masterpieces that most think they are. The biggest problem to me is that Nolan tried to ground an inherently outlandish concept in reality. That’s inevitably going to result in a story that takes itself too seriously and is too ridiculous simultaneously. Some things shouldn’t be treated with the weight of The Godfather and that’s no indictment against it. Being nothing more than simple fun is perfectly fine.

There was a clear change of creative vision there and I'd go so far as to say it was an improvement for the sake of that movie. I don't think Christian Bale works as Batman. The voice takes me out of the moment every time, the suit looks like a jigsaw puzzle, he doesn't feel intimidating. Also the plot holes in The Dark Knight Rises are just far too egregious. Easily the weakest of the trilogy. There are great films here and great filmmaking, but for me, I prefer Burton and Snyder's takes.

Another thing, his voice in begins was also decent, it wasn't overly growly as the other two, and it was unnecessary to intensify it. His voice is so try hard in both of those films, that it turned the Nolan Batman into a freaking meme. I'll probably receive flak for this, and I'm being biased, but I think Val Kilmer nailed the Batman/ Bruce Wayne rolls more than some of the other actors who have portrayed the caped crusader, and his suit looked superb... minus the Bat nips lol but that's my opinion.

I totally agree. I have a hard time explaining my opinion on this to people, but the Nolan movies were 100% Nolan movies first, and Batman movies second. Sure, he did a lot of cool stuff, but he also neutered a lot of the things that makes Batman work. Its the wrong kind of gritty for Batman imo, and they really went way too hard on the whole "righteous symbol" aspect of the character like you said. Its all very self-important and self aggrandizing, and they seem like movies made by someone who is embarrassed to admit they like a comic book character. Also these movies are the reason everyone pronounces Ra's al Ghul as "razz all gool" instead of "raysh al ghul," which is an unforgivable butchering of a character imo (Razz is technically the correct Arabic, but the character is called Raysh). The least they could have done was pronounce his name properly but they couldn't even do that.

@@m1k3l1f3 Oh yeah, I've read ones where whole scenes are gone from the final. The 89 Batman movie had a sequence where Batman gets a policeman's horse and chases someone through the streets of Gotham or something. Gone. I think that might have been the scene that got one of the female actors hurt and they had to recast, I think it was Vicki Vale, or maybe that was another movie. Been a long time.

You have absolutely nailed it here, spot 9n and all Nolan films are too long winded with massive plot contrivances. And it always pissed me off how the Gotham City of Batman Begins just disappears in The Dark Knight just so Nolan can selfishly turn his Batman films into Heat with Batman in it.

Great analysis, Vee! I think the thing about the Dark Knight trilogy is that Batman And Robin was so bad that it literally killed the Batman franchise for years. So when making the next Batman movie, they overcorrected, making it so every element was no fun and as deep and mature as possible. Which could be both good and bad depending on how you look at it.

So 90% of any other movie ever made? Lol

So, the takeaway from this is 1) Dialogue should sound conversational. 2) Batman and Bane need a voice distorter. 3) A hero should never frame themself for a villain's crimes. 4) Always explain technical, tactical and practical details. 5) Always explain motives and character knowledge. 5) Keep sequels consistent with the first movie.

@Frank Lopez Rises is easily one of the worst Batman movies ever. You have to be trolling if you think that pile of shit is better than The Batman. At least TDK had Heath Ledger's performance to carry it which puts it in the conversation.

About the long speech issue, you say that not everybody has the gift of silver tongue, which is true. But take ALL the characters you presented as examples and think about it: -Ra's al Ghul: one of the smartest people in the DCU. -Talia: even smarter than her father in some incarnations. -Harvey: district attorney. If he doesn't have a silver tongue, he would suck at his job. -Rachel: assistant district attorney. Same. -Alfred: that's a given. He's the voice of wisdom. -Bruce: ultra charismatic member of the Justice League. -Joker: magnificent bastard with a PhD in manipulation. -Carmine Falcone: top mobster in Gotham. You don't get there without a bit of charisma. The fact is: you're right. Not everybody has the gift of silver tongue, and the average everyman is definitely not a good speaker. But the Batman mythos IS NOT about the average everyman. It's about men who make themselves greater, who reach for greatness.

Great points. There have been a lot of things about those movies that I didn't get. I found them all overly long and the plots a bit too convoluted. Great call on the changing Gotham city look. Never caught that before.

How did the joker fill an entire hospital floor w barrels of gasoline? And Gotham, yeah, it got a total overhaul between films. Wtf?

And as much I like Heath Ledgers performance as the Joker, it’s just his Joker character doesn’t come off being believable as in how is that no one can catch or shoot this one guy? How does he just know everything and everyone? I was also never fan of his look either with the paint makeup always coming off and not doing his actual origin of falling into the chemicals.

They’re 2 ferry boats. I know media portrays cops as superheroes when their not breaking the law but they’re just people. Not exceptionally skilled, aware or trained. Often low trained and underpaid and some cops worked for the Joker. Yeah I believe Joker could hide in plain sight, criminals have done it before either through gullibility of police or help. Finger print off the bullet was taken when his super computer scanned the broken fragments, put the bullet back together and then pulled the print. If you feel that’s too unrealistic the movie’s called The Dark Knight it’s about Batman. No time frame is given from when Batman climbed out the hole and returned to Gotham. Bane actually held Gotham hostage for around 5 months. We don’t know the exact day Batman climbed out and then arrived at Gotham. And I can tell many of you don’t travel. How long do you think it takes to get to one side of the world to the other? Bane’s prison was showed to be right outside a city and even if it wasn’t the world is rather civilized. A ride to an airport and ideally you can move great distances within hours. How he got inside the city. He’s Batman and it’s an entire core of a city. Just like cops can’t watch and control every part of the city, I’m sure Bane’s men and criminals have even more holes in security and surveillance.

I legit didn’t notice the differences of Gotham city from Batman Begins compared to the rest of the trilogy until you pointed it out. Now I’m just upset about it lol

When these movies first came out, it took comic book movies seriously. Comic book movies were typically like Batman Forever: Nothing but a cackling joke. We all freaked that the movies took the source material, to an extent, and making them movies, to an extent. Looking back on it, they got a lot wrong: A LOT.
