I'm sorry, but TDK trilogy is the best ever made.

Rewatched it all on bluray/surround sound over a period of a couple days. Had goosebumps throughout each film, was great! Just thought I'd say that for the 100th time.

Best ever movies in order:

TDK Trilogy

TLOTR

The Last Samurai

I'm a bit of a Batman fanboy since I was like 6 or something. :biggrin2: What I really like about the character from the comics is how Bruce Wayne turned the death of his parents into a positive by training his mind and body to its absolute zenith, to ensure that what happened to him as a child isn't repeated in Gotham again. The discipline and dedication - even if it is a fictional creation - is an example that if life throws you a lemon you try to make lemonade, lol.

In terms of the Dark Knight trilogy I respect the director and his team for restoring a lot of credibility to the character (especially since the nonsense of Batman Forever and Batman & Robin), but I was very, very disappointed by The Dark Knight Rises. I expected something a lot better from Chris Nolan, but for me, the whole thing just didn't click as it should have. Nolan had the right ingredients --- Bane was absolutely fantastic (every single line of dialogue of his is SO quotable), Catwoman was brilliant in terms of portraying her as a thief who traverses the line between good and bad, etc., but there was just something missing from the final movie and the trilogy as a whole. I guess I didn't agree with Nolan's interpretation of the character as it differs from what many fans consider to be the true essence of Batman, i.e. a selfless servant of the city not wishing to walk-away from his duty.

But anyway enough of the essay I liked the movie because there were individual scenes of absolute brilliance, but overall it was not fulfilling either on an emotional level or as the final part of a trilogy.

I've also been a fan of batman since I was a kid. I thought they did a good job of portraying Bruce Wayne as being a selfless servent. Although he walked away in the end of TDKR, he left on a good note with some insurance. It was a bit annoying how they portrayed Rachel and his relationship with her, particularly in the second movie, but overall the rest of the movie didn't really make me think much of it. It was a great balance between pleasing the masses and the Batman die-hard fans.

I still think it was a masterpiece.

The only disaster that makes me mad that I can think of right now is the Transformers series. Don't feel like starting about that lol

If you thought it was a masterpiece then it is a masterpiece, no worries on my end!

The bit at the end where Alfred nods at Bruce as he's sitting with Selina in the cafe is just wonderful. From a purely emotional perspective (minus any character bias from me) I thought that was class. Bruce seemed happy and content, although I do hope he married Selina and he's not just seeing her casually. The sanctity of marriage is vital! :biggrin2:

My biggest complaint about TDKR is how everything felt a bit rushed. We needed TWO movies for the final part. Things just seemed to happen so quickly!

EDIT: Since watching TDKR last week I've been walking around with a parna over my mouth and saying stuff like "You think the shadows are your ally?" and "...do you accept this mans resignation" etc.

The pain and agony to come after your mom sees you with a parna over your mouth and removes it.

"But wait...mom...noooooo...!!"

They just don't understand :(

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
