It was an ok movie, but hopefully this will keep people away from the Joer as I dont really care about the character that much & would rather see some of the others before getting Joker Version 3. As much as Nolan might be a good choice, I find his argument that certain characters wont work in "his vision" a cheap excuse for his limited abilities. Everyone else can use them, some good, some failed, so honestly, it just shows he is limited.
I don't think it's reasonable to call Nolan limited, given his other films. He had no problem with fantastical elements in The Prestige. He wanted to create films that were grounded in reality for Batman. Having a freeze gun, a giant scaly human, or a man of clay wouldn't go well with that, and would detract from the atmosphere he set up.
It doesn't matter who he loves. Batman is so obsessed with achieving something impossible that he will never be happy in a relationship. His parents' deaths haunt him, and will haunt him until he dies. Until there is retribution for their deaths, and there never will be, he can't be in a real relationship.
It bugged me that Bane wasn't the mastermind he was made out to be. I think that it would have been better if he was the child and Talia played some other role. I mean, Talia needed to play a part, but to me Bane should be Batman's ultimate enemy, more so even than the Joker. Having him just be another cog in a machine seems disgraceful.
