This article (opinion piece really) states perfectly the problem I had with Batman Begins, i.e. the third act destroyed all the good will the first two acts built up. Although I will say that I had many problems during the first two acts as well. Pretty much once Katie Holmes gets shown the factory in the bowels of Arkham, nothing goes right from that point on. Which was a shame really, because they'd come so close just to screw it up so badly at the end. I think many people forgave Begins huge faults because there were no nipples on the Batsuit.

Also, I agree with the author that I would love to see Batman get away from the mopey Goth routine for a while. He's been doing it off and on for 30 years now* in both comics and movies and it's getting kinda stale.


*There was that horrifying period where he was clearly into LSD and whip-its though. May the days of Joel Shumaker never return.



EDIT: If at some point during The Dark Knight some on asked "What are you?" and bats responds "Are you dense? Are you retarded or something? Who the hell do you think I am? I'm the goddamn Batman!" then all will be forgiven.
What am I listening to?: Raymond Chandler - The Big Sleep - Disc 6
