Maybe Im just wierd, but I thought The Dark Knight was just a lame movie -.- It didn't have that flair, that atmosphere that I believe makes Batman so damned good.

I preffer Michael Keaten from Batman(1989) and Batman Returns. They're simply my favorite Batman movies(Mainly cause Jack Nicholson is unbeatable as the Joker, hands down)

seriously?....i thought it was the best batman movie....came away from all the 80s campy stuff. And the joker was really well played, it really took batman to the 21st century

Didn't even have to think about this one, Christian Bale for me too.

I loved George Clooney as Batman, for when it was kind of goofy and not totally 100% serious Batman.

The newer, more dark movies have you thinking "There's no other Batman than Christian Bale" though.

Campy? I think that the Batman movies from the 80s are pretty darned dark And you think the new movie had the atmosphere?

The Dark Knight was just yet another wannabe blockbuster with lots of special effects and lots of crappy acting which was for the most part completely ignored cause you were dazzled by the fantastic effects.

In some movies that's just fine, but to me Batman gets ruined with all of the pointless, uncontributing action, car chases, gunfire from motorcycles, and a completely off Joker(seriously the Joker in this one was not even convincing, like he didn't even try to top Jack)

Even the name bothers me, The Dark Knight, I mean it doesn't even have the name Batman in it. How can the best batman movie not even have a proper title?

I sat through the entire movie feeling like I was watching a modern Terminator movie where a Terminator had come from the future in a Batman suit to kill the only threat to Skynet, The Joker.

That's just my opinion.

The Dark Knight was an awesome movie :| The older movies are all pretty cheesy (and yes, campy) and they all have a very, very apparent "comic book" feel to them. Not saying it's a bad thing, as they have their place and I personally like the one with the Penguin/Catwoman that Tim Burton directed p: Still, it's totally campy and dated and mostly an older charm.

The Dark Knight was a completely different perspective. It went for a much more realistic slant - "What would it be like if Batman was ACTUALLY real?" as opposed to staying silly and comic-y. I don't think the acting was bad, at all, and you can't really compare the two Jokers. Heath Ledger did an incredible job as a convincing, more realistic version. Jack Nicholson's was totally over-the-top, and you'd never believe he could be a real person o.o They are completely different ways of looking at the same character. The Dark Knight was awesome because it re-imagined Batman into something different than he had been in the older films.

And who cares if it doesn't have the name Batman in it? How confusing is it to remember all the old films? They all have "Batman" in the title... I'd rather have something different and easier to differentiate. Besides, the first one was called Batman Begins.

The older movies are The Batman, Batman and Robin, Batman Returns, Batman Forever, Batman the Movie, Batman, Batman & Robin, etc... Can you remember which one is which? XD
