Based on enjoyment, not actual quality.
TDKR will be hard to top, those
final 6+ minutes
Batman's first appearance & the pit being my favorite 'hero scenes' of a superhero movie.
How come you didn't enjoy Spiderman 2? Judging by your list I'd have thought it would have been you're cup of tea. Is all good however, having Batman begins at number one is something I can always get behind, such an amazing experience of the transformation of Bruce Wayne into the caped crusader.
The film was good until people saw it a few times and the holes started to appear.The problem is it feels extremely rushed. I will say again that Nolan should have split the film into two parts to give them room to breathe.
You never get a true sense of time in the movie and of Batman's journey. It was a real missed opportunity. It's still watchable but I could never say it's really good.
There are some pretty anticlimactic scenes TDKR the movie and a ton of holes. I don't want to get in trouble for spoilers or I'd go into more detail.
anyway, I won't ever come around to liking it. The whole movie was falling apart almost from the get go.
The first 2 movies are good though. This is coming from a non-batman fan. Have never been able to fully take his batman voice or the suit seriously.
Iron Man is the best, hands down imo.
Anyway, I am very excited for SuperMan he's always been in my top 3 to 5 heroes.

Part one should have been the start of Bane's plan, getting everything together and letting the audience get to know the new characters, ending with batman getting put in the pit.
Part two should have been Bruce getting out of the pit, getting back to Gotham while Bane causing havoc and Bruce training and having the final fight.

I don't really know,
I just didn't like Doc Ock as much as Green Goblin and I think 1 just had more of a wow factor.
I will say 2 is better quality wise though.
Begins is just special imo.
I only like Mask of the Phantasm better though I don't count it.
Begins just had everything for me, most enjoyment combined with the best quality.

It was good enough for a lot of people to go out of their way to watch it enough times to tear it apart. That makes it good.
How often do people willingly sit through ~3 hour films multiple times? Think people did that with The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo?
TDKR feels like the script had major revisions before it was filmed. The holes in the script are not only big but ridiculous. The climbing bit never worked, either.
Actually this movie lost me from the beginning when the CIA guy didn't bother to open the face mask before he took the "Bain guys" in. Such a dumb scene.
TKDR suffers from editing and pacing issues where it seems a complete version would make it leagues better.
I don't understand a single thing in this mini review.
Is it good? bad? so so?
Junior film student who can't articulate his feeling. You are the normal one.
Original Spider-Man trilogy is mediocre. One okay movie sandwiched between two crap ones. So yeah, no Spider-Man 2 anywhere.
Those are the only superhero DC/Marvel movies I've seen which I consider to be good. I'd put in Blade and Blade 2, but I don't think those probably count for most people since he's not a traditional superhero.
The action is a mix of slow and fast to give the effect of superhumans battling, which I mentioned in my impressions. It works really well. Like The Matrix, or Dragonball Z, I guess.
Someone will inevitably dub this movie in Dragonball Z. It's ripe for abuse. If you do, just know you got the idea from this post. I willed it. I would recommend Saiyan Saga. It would actually work really well.

I respect everything you said. You have class, and you have taste.
Those lat 6 min of TDKR were some of the best I have ever seen.

I didn't know Maggie Gyllenhall was in Man of Steel. I thought Rachel Dawes was dead.

Loving the new pic there. All I can think about when I see "It's time for a change" is Owen Hart lol.
The only thing to me is, Lois Lane is just not attractive at all. She wasn't in Returns, but I daresay she is even less so in this new film. I just can't see it. Teri Hatcher and Erica Durance have ruined all future Lois' for me.

You don't think Amy Adams is attractive? What?

Lois looks like Pam from The Office in that pic
She looks stiff as hell in this shot. Needs something more dynamic like her wrapped around him or something.

She doesn't do it for me mate, no. I am aware I may be in a minority. But she's not my cup of tea at all.

Many people think Amy Adams is very attractive. I'm one of them.
don't think Verendus is a plant.

a lot of my threads involve me fucking up somehow. Perhaps I'm a moron?
TDKR was boring. Not a "bad" movie, but I doubt I'll ever watch it again.
Avengers may have been cheesy (and whatever other billion flaws you guys will probably point out) but it was WAY more fun and entertaining as a super hero movie.
Plus Anne Hathaway sucked as Catwoman. Team Pfeiffer for life!

Love that suit.
I'm sure it'll look even better on the screen. The only change I might make would be to lighten the armbands a bit. Maybe.

She's cute, but doesn't look like she'd be the Lois that most of us would prefer. She just seems to fit the damsel in distress look more than if they were going for an entertaining character in her own right. But I could be wrong.
I like the sass and sexiness of the animated series Lois.
You can pick apart everything like that in most action/comic book movie.
The whole pencil bit with the Joker never made any sense. The opening bank heist with the bus in broad day light leaving the bank.
Again if you go back and watch all three movies (or any superhero movie) you can pick apart so many little things. And that's the problem, we love our super hero movies and then watch them over and over and then of course 4-5th time things that didn't bother you or never popped up now do. Just depends if you liked the overall movie and what it was trying to accomplish.
That's why I don't get how people who don't like TDKR act like its because of little details like what you mentioned that took them out of it. What? From the opening scene? Seriously? I refuse to believe anyone who noticed that, knew there was almost 3 hours movie to follow, and from that decided the movie won't be good or lost enjoyment. More like you didn't enjoy the overall movie so things like what you mentioned stood out more.
Of all the characters that repeated themselves between the two Batman movie franchises, no character was played more differently than the two Catwomans. Well her and Gordon maybe.
Pfeiffer played her role perfectly. Extremely sexy too. But her Catwoman was such a weird departure from the actual character. She became Catwoman because her cats licked her into becoming a cat or something. WTF?
The Catwoman Anne played was far closer to the actual character.

Avengers was boring as hell too until the last 30 minutes
Dredd was the best comic film last year hands down
Wow. Way to fuck up your cover.
Although the color of his suit looks a lot better here.

Superman looks douchey in all these cover shots.

Batman and Superman are looking at each other! Crossover confirmed!
It's plot heavy Terrence Malick with people being punched through buildings.
Yet he wears it better than Fassbender.
To be clear, I was referring to the JoBlo impressions in the OP. Not what anyone is saying in this thread.
