I honestly felt confused when I came home from watching TDKR. People seemed to love it and I just sat there, irritated because I wasn't feeling what they were feeling. I saw it in IMAX and even though the cinematography was great, I was so underwhelmed. This was clearly a rushed idea that went through various script changes. I can completely believe the rumor that Joker was in their original plans for a return (had Ledger lived). What actually happened and the time jump of 8 years felt so forced. Also, I think it brought great shame to the two previous installments how his love for Rachel was just side-lined in this one. I know she 'chose' Harvey in TDK but the circumstances mostly forced her into that decision. She had a soulmate love with Bruce since they were young. Also, I wish Marion had been the lead instead of Anne Marion's character is done so dirty __________________

This is true, Cillian really shone in Batman Begins (and then was unfortunately wasted in the other two, which is a solid reason to consider the first movie the best) --

I just wish he hadn't been reduced to such a weak ending at the hands of Catwoman. That was such a forced way to depict her power and undermine his. __________________

I also wish Bane's voice wasn't so damn hard to understand lol. I agree it is a shame they had him go out as such a weak punk at the end after portraying him so well in most of the film.

Bane's voice cracked me up - something clever about how Tom did it, as if he's in real pain whenever he talks (and I think he actually was, as the mask was straining his head )
Also, everlasting appreciation for Heath's Joker in the midst of all this Rob Pattinson reboot madness (I think there's an actual deleted scene of a new Joker for that movie) - __________________

I'm still in mourning for Bruce and Rachel's romantic relationship and what could have been, had Katie not been replaced... I never thought the thing with Selina worked in this series. His soulmate was Rachel, and I wish they had stayed true to that. It just felt lazy how she was basically fazed out of his life in TDK and pushed towards Harvey. Then in TDKR Bruce is being forced to get over her... Even before they fell in love they were BEST friends. As little kids. And he's being forced to forget this? That's as stupid as leaving the memory of his parents behind.

I didn't like this Bruce with anyone. I feel like he had no chemistry with Rachel, Talia, or Catwoman lol.

^ Chemistry's subjective so I totally respect your view but I still think the potential for romance was greater in BB than in the other two movies and Bruce/Rachel had the bigger love story.
The thing with Talia was actually pretty hot when it happened but I think that was ruined by the stupid role they gave Marion Cotillard. Her character is a means to an end rather than being developed well. It was a waste for a great actress like her. They totally rushed Bruce/Selina. Also, I've never understood the hype over them why is it considered healthy for him to be with a violent kleptomaniac? Quote:

I always liked Batman and Catwoman together lol. They have a lot of chemistry and I love their dynamic. Talia always screws Batman over more even after always acting thirsty as hell, so I never cared for them together *gags* In TDKR I just thought they were bland and had no chemistry, it also didn't help that AH sucked as Catwoman IMO. I also didn't buy that Bruce would fake his death and live out his new life with that Selena. GTFOOH! I loved Batman/Catwoman in Batman Returns (My favorite version of them) The Batman, and Batman TAS. They were always my favorite couple in the Batman universe, and after that is Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy. I hope they can somehow be in a live action film together one day.

plus there's something extremely cowardly about Bruce basically saying "PEACE OUT Gotham" and taking off to Europe with Selina and it's even worse that it's basically a cringey re-imagining of Alfred saying "I picture you in a cafe in Paris somewhere" that it just WAY too sappy for a Batman movie. __________________
