Of the fans you reference, I'd guess that only about 5% of people who watch TDKR follow the comics and know the back story of the characters. Those 5%, of which you are included, can be disappointed and cry to each other on your comic book forum. Sure, the movie had some plot-holes, but I don't think it took away one damn thing from how good of a conclusion this was. The remaining 95% of us can enjoy that Nolan put together one hell of series, with a conclusion that I (and most everyone who saw it) found to be quite enjoyable.

Should I be pissed that Nolan didn't stick to the Arkham video games?
Most of my Batman knowledge is from previous movies, the cartoon from the 90's and the Arkham video games. This may have been covered but I'm guessing that they left it hanging so that someone else can take over while Nolan stays on as producer??? Or not because Robin might be a pretty boring movie. |

Comic books themselves rewrite origin stories and tinker with back stories all the time. No sure why anyone would be more pissed at a movie for doing the exact same thing.

I honestly don't mind Christian Bale's growling. I mean, he's supposed to be a dark avenging creature of the night. Should he lisp? Keaton already did the whispery thing in the Burton "Batman". Should he just talk regular? Then he'd seem silly, like Adam West. |

First 30 minutes were feeling really dodgy to me, and then it got really strong and finished STRONGER.
AMAZING. And I really thought he was dead, what a great ending. Shit, might have been even better if they had just showed Alfred smiling into the camera and cut to black. ****ING BEST THIRD MOVIE IN A TRILOGY EVER. And Bane walking around like Darth Vader was awesome.

As for the ending, I agree that a smiling Alfred would've been great, but the "common people" really had to see Bale. At my midnight opening, the whole theater was pindrop silent all film, until that reveal of Bane and Hathaway at the table, and then they roared; it was as close to the Great Movie Roar* as I've yet to experience. *The original 1977 theater showing of "Star Wars", when the Death Star exploded... Even though I was a child, I vividly remember it... After it blew up, and Obi-Wan said "The Force will be with you... always", people were STILL cheering. |

Joker and Bane were SUCH better villians than the gay Scarecrow.

And again I kick myself for skipping a midnight showing.

How does Batman's back mend in the comics?
