Except even with becoming a princess she's still just the same. If anything there's more complaints about her not doing MORE after that

The Dark Night was pretty good, but The Dark Knight Rises was just absurd.

The Joker was pretty bland. He was a cold psycho, having none of the enthusiasm or love for what he does. He's the Joker, not the Stoner.

And yeah, S Pidy 2 was quite good. Electro's main villain, and the second is a slow building subplot, and the last is mostly there for a sequel hook, though there's enough ham in that brief scene to make up for it.

@Star I don't really remember that because I've only seen the movie once.

The Dark Knight Rises was a weird movie. I enjoyed watching it, but I think it's harder to take seriously than the earlier movies due to how over the top Bane is.

@Teeth Was there a reason why they made his voice like that? I don't really buy the sophisticated explanation.

@Marcen They did because....just because they needed an "edge" on him or something.

Dark: I dunno. He does a few things in ways that could have easily gotten him killed if the Gotham police were even halfway competent (or the mobsters more inclined to shoot him) with the only apparent reason being him going "trollololol."

@Star Well, at least the villains were more threatening in the last Batman movie is the series than the last movie in the other Batman series.

Also, that basically the entire thing is filled with plot holes and there's also the Endor Holocaust thing.

@Star and Story Also, the MOMENT I finished watching The Dark Knight for the 1st time, I was like..."There is no way in Hell they're going to top this."

Yeah, the whole "Let's take over the city for three months!" thing just felt a bit off. It's too... super-villainy. At least with the Joker, his plans were a bit more mundane as they boiled down to "blow stuff up / set things on fire". Even in the first movie, the whole "fear toxin" thing was played mostly like a biochemical terrorist attack, which is more believable than Bane's "hold one of the world's largest cities hostage" plan.

@Teeth I thought that the whole taking over the city for three months made the movie feel longer than it should. Not a great thing.

Teeth: To be fair, Bane had no intention of not blowing up the city. IIRC, he was just doing the hostage thing to be an asshole to the citizens before finally leveling everything.

But nothing about the DKR makes any sense. It's all wildly implausible. And it substitutes action movie cliches for actual plotting.
