Better than Avengers?

I thought so. Avengers was a bigger action movie no doubt, but I just thought the story and characters in Spidey were much, much more interesting.

Watched Batman in IMAX this afternoon....AWESOME! I didn't think anything was going to touch Avengers but there was alot more substance to Batman. As a supporting actor, Michael Caine's portrayal of Alfred was stellar. Great way to finish up the Trilogy.

I thought Ted was O.K.  I laughed pretty hard at moments.

Mila Kunis is "expletive" hot.

Oh yeah, she's just ridiculous. Love the smokey eyes. I thought Ted was pretty well written, about par for the course for Seth MacFarlane.
 
Saw TDKR the other day, thought it was great.  Very satisfying way to end Nolan's "trilogy", even if this continues on.  Some people I talked to didn't like the ending, but I didn't mind it - I think it fit in with the whole concept of Batman from the comics (i.e. seems like something that would fit in a comic), even if Nolan had taken it to much darker places throughout.

Yeah. I thought the ending was very fitting for the character as he was portrayed throughout these movies. I get that some people may not have loved the potential ambiguity, but, I mean, part of Nolan's whole vision was to make a real world plausible Batman, and, in the real world, "endings" tend to be ambiguous.
 
I thought TDKR was good.  Not better than the 2nd movie but very good.  I think they might have overproduced Bane's voice though.  It sounded like it was coming through a megaphone when he spoke.  I liked most of the flow of the movie though.  It was enjoyable.  Had some fanboy moments and the action was pretty good.
 
Loved TDKR.  I think the Score of the movie was really fantastic.  Kevin Smith called it "the heartbeat of the movie" and I tend to agree.

I liked Banes voice  ???
 
Agreed it wasn't as good as the second movie, but it was still fantastic.

I also thought Anne Hathaway didn't do it for me as Cat woman. I guess I still consider Michelle Pfeiffer my favourite Cat woman.

All in all, not a bad complaint to have. 4.5/5 stars.

See, for the last year I was very skeptical of Anne Hathaway.  I didn't even like her "look" (although, she's super hot) when the teaser pictures were being released.

After I watched the movie I totally changed my opinion.  Everytime she was on screen I was drawn to her.  I thought she was excellent. 
 
Yeah I absolutely loved TDKR. I know there's some plot holes in the movie, but they really don't bother me. If I can accept the fact that there's man dressing up as a bat fighting crime then I can let some other things slide. It was just a touch below TDK for me. The Joker was just too good to top.

And I also really enjoyed Anne Hathaway. Thought she stole every scene she was in.
 
I liked the movie a bunch, I especially liked Hathaway when not in costume for some reason, the catsuit freaked me out a little.

In hindsight it was probably the nuclear strength brownie I was rocking at the time.

Nice... AMC? 

I thought this Batman was the best ever.  I was very pleasantly surprised.

Looking forward to Total Recall. 
 
We did the whole IMAX watch the whole trilogy thing from 6pm through midnight, it was at the Eastridge mall and they gave out some cool little souvenirs as well as giving free refills on everything all night.
 
About half way through TDKR I suspected it would end a touch ham fisted, and though I thought the easy way out was taken somewhat, I was glad to be largely wrong and overall felt it was a great effort. I have a thought about Tom Hardy's portrayal, somewhat in comparison to Mads Mikkelsen in Valhalla Rising, but I'll wait until it's not a spoiler type discussion.

Incidentally, Mads just blew off Thor 2's bad guy role to star in the 'prequel' series of sorts called "Hannibal" on NBC, supposedly coming this fall, really looking forward to that.

Dexter for the PG audience.  I think that's going to be a big letdown of a series.
