exciting, needed more development of certain characters and it felt rushed even though it was supposed to take place over maybe a year? (too vague on that for how fast it was going) but what i'm bothered about most is

Just saw it. Quality film, and a great way for Nolan and Bale to bow out. They'd better leave it at a trilogy and not do any more.

Well I hope they don't do that, because it's never going to come close to this trilogy. Either they play it dark, in which case it'll just be inferior, or they camp it up a bit, which'll take things right back into Schumacher territory.

They could take it to Batman Beyond territory, which could be pretty good, or pretty terrible.

from what i've heard there are two being planned. one geared towards kids and another that Frank Miller will be in on. again nothing to back these up but some casual chatter on the internet but i could understand making one for kids. the Frank Miller one seems a bit of a waste after these ones though.

I saw that you had made this thread and didn't come here for three days because of it. I saw the movie today though, and now I can return from my exile.

My verdict: Excellent.

i didnt like it. it was too long, drawn out and painfully predictable. there wasnt a lot of actual fighting and when there was it wasnt all that great.

Hmmm....yeah, it was a bit of a mess, and only occasionally a great one. I see what sean meant about it feeling rushed, it was oddly incoherent. It had all the ideas, and a bunch of set pieces that should've been great, but somehow feels less than the sum of it's parts. Bit of a let down.

Also also, perhaps the most disappointing aspect of all was that the bad guy was ######ing dull and two dimensional. How they can take a character, set him up as being maybe some militant face of anti-capitalist 99%ers or whatever - i remember stories of them going along to the Occupy protests with cameras - and make him so completely unsympathetic, I don't know.
