>Not really Batman just a series of philosophy lectures rammed down your gullet
I wouldn't say rammed down and batman has always been more than just beating villain of the week
if ledger hadn't croaked this movie would be help up as some unmatchable masterpiece but you know once someone dies, people tend to overrate everything.
e.g see some c list rapper getting shot and killed and suddenly he's a "legend"
Overrated is a meaningless buzzword people say just to feel superior. You are not saying anything substantial with that word, you're just trying to say 'my opinion is correct and everyone else is wrong' without actually saying your opinion. All it does is change the burden of proof so now everyone else has to defend their opinion, but you never have to defend yours.
So okay, OP, what makes it overrated? What are people saying about it that you disagree with and why?
I’ve seen The Dark Knight in Top 5 lists for all-time movies, and while it’s the best of the Nolan Batman trilogy, it’s not even in Top 5 superhero movies. Here’s what I thought:
- The pacing makes it feel like a 3+ hour long film
- It’s carried by Ledger. Scenes are generally boring outside of the Joker
- Ridiculous when he said “Hello beautiful” to Maggie Gyllenhaal when she’s anything but
- IMAX scenes are the overall highlight
It's a fricking terrible movie that constantly pulls you into two different directions.
It wants you to take it seriously but at the same time it has all this stupid over-the-top comic book shit.
Suspension of disbelief is broken when the world is all over the place.
I can suspend my disbelief with something as silly Burton's Batman because it never tries to be some gritty spy thriller.
And I can suspend my disbelief with something like Argo because it never has silly costumed heroes and villains show up.

I found TDK to be very grounded for a superhero movie. What did you find "over the top" exactly?
A millionaire crime-fighting vigilante in a bat costume and a silly voice, cruising through the city with the help of scifi tech and his Butler operator
So just the core concept of it? Yeah, if you can't suspend your disbelief for a movie then you're not going to like it. That's like going into Avatar or Star Wars and just being angry the whole time because aliens don't exist.
>That's like going into Avatar or Star Wars and just being angry the whole time because aliens don't exist.
No, it's not like that at all. These movies never try to be ultra-gritty and realistic.
TDK is like if you remade Platoon in the Star Wars universe and you see Jar Jar Binks brutal dramatic death.
>more adventurous, less gritty
So then more of what you said you dislike, what the hell?

I don't dislike grittiness or silliness.
What I dislike is a sloppy mess of both of them combined.

I did not think it was sloppy. And I'm in the majority, so if you want to convince anybody you're going to have to present your points a little better.

It's not my fault you're such a brainlet you struggle to comprehend even the simplest of points.
I'm not even gonna attempt to bring anything more complex up because there's no way your small mind will ever understand it.

Massively, it was the worst of the three with no real kino scenes and everything a bit OTT
I still don't think the plane thing was physically possible at the beginning
I don't think that if you can't do a climb with a rope, you'll magically be able to do it without one
I also think if policemen ran towards armed baddies, they are all going to die
Anne Hathaway was so fricking fine as catwoman though
In their last moments, capeshit movies show you what they really are. So, in a way, I know these movies better than you ever did. Would you like to know which of them are overrated?
Literally who cares what you think?
U
no u
fpbp
Saying that doesn't make you less butthurt than him.
I'm not butthurt since I don't engage in butt sex like you
i care
It's much better than the Snyderleague crap that followed it, and it's better than anything in the MCU as well.
Not really Batman just a series of philosophy lectures rammed down your gullet.

Two face looked terrible. I thought Nolan never used cgi?
Too pretentious! Should’ve been called Batman Continues
you're not supposed to watch it as an adult. I saw it when I was a kid and I loved it. Stop watching children's movies.
Olive the Other Reindeer still holds. Children's movies are usually better than adult movies because they're made with passion.

It was good and you're a homosexual.

Nolan is a pseudo-intellectual hack who cannot write or direct. He is a lucky fricker, The Dark Bore became a thing when that actor died.
>Nolan is a pseudo-intellectual hack who cannot write or direct
prove it.
His movies.

lets hear top 5 superhero movies
Pootie Tang, The Shadow, Darkman, Fantastic Four (1994), Pluto Nash
I'd much rather hear your final breath, capeshitter.
100% serious.
actually the last superhero movie I saw was in 2010. doubt you can say the same
>I MUST HATE WHATS POPULAR AND PRAISED
It's a fricking terrible movie that constantly pulls you into two different directions.
It wants you to take it seriously but at the same time it has all this stupid over-the-top comic book shit.
Why does over-the-top comic book shit preclude you from taking it seriously? That's what willing suspension of disbelief is for, anon.

So Predator, then. Or Alien. "Why am I scared for these people dying when the idea of an alien is so ridiculous in the first place?"
If you can't see the difference of the Xenomorph and Jar Jar Binks then I can't help you.
If you can't see how it's ridiculous that you suspension of disbelief is so easily broken then I can't help you.
If you can’t appreciate jar jar binks I can’t help you……..
how would you have made a batman movie then
more adventurous, less gritty, have some actual detective shit

You're making it impossible for a batman movie to be realistic if the entire concept of batman already triggers you. Not sure what your point is
>You're making it impossible for a batman movie to be realistic
Good. You don't have to shoehorn comic book characters into every genre of film.
guy walks around with half his face missing
This homie has never played a video game

look at OP's pic again
In their last moments, capeshit movies show you what they really are. So, in a way, I know these movies better than you ever did. Would you like to know which of them are overrated?
I agree OP, but I need assistance. Can someone post the video of Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn forcing a smile? I can't find it anywhere.
Yeah, but still 1000x better than Matt Reeves "The Batman".
>why this cracka talking to me in his batman voice?
Contemporary patriot act memes
christian bale has no presence in these movies when he's batman, crazy how everyone praises him for non-bruce wayne stuff
