And since it's so visually epic, it had to be in a theatre! Like Ruth, I think everything became much clearer and I was able to fully enjoy TDKR this time - the hype wasn't the same, but everything else was enhanced. The first time I thought it was terrific but flawed, now I really only have one issue with it, which is the love triangle. I think it didn't really worked. Everything else, perfect.<br /><br />So definitely watch it again!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12100758997830469219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3996842231848527441.post-63510708556370346362012-08-01T14:26:17.528-04:002012-08-01T14:26:17.528-04:00Thanks for your comment as well as for following !...Thanks for your comment as well as for following !!SDGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09331736603243732602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3996842231848527441.post-31822642869889578662012-08-01T12:35:30.009-04:002012-08-01T12:35:30.009-04:00Great review and a great blog:).Great review and a great blog:).Akshyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07312609781878963371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3996842231848527441.post-63865164210375354132012-07-27T12:09:09.857-04:002012-07-27T12:09:09.857-04:00There are so many people who keep on saying that i...There are so many people who keep on saying that it only gets better on second watch.

While I was letdown on a re-watch of the first two films, there wasn't much I didn't like about this one. It had more of Bruce like Batman Begins, and the pacing was far better than The Dark Knight. I love the focus on Bruce/Batman's development in BB and the epic nature of TDK. For me, this film combined those elements perfectly.<br /><br />Also, Bane's motivation as "Gotham's reckoning" seems to come from his association with the League of Shadows, which had destroyed cities like Gotham in the past for the greater good. Though he was ex-communicated from them, he still could have aspirations to follow in their footsteps, since they trained and indoctrinated him in the past.Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08596682195753811295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3996842231848527441.post-89559788897580771732012-07-23T11:18:10.298-04:002012-07-23T11:18:10.298-04:00Everything about this movie is just so darn epic, ...Everything about this movie is just so darn epic, that I honestly couldn’t wait to just stand up, cheer my head off, and show my love for the epic trilogy that Christopher Nolan has made for me, and made for me with total love and care.
