The movie prides itself on being true and gritty and "realistic" yet has so many holes. I realize that other movies have the same issue but if you want to make a critically realistic movie I think it should be looked at critically. If they are going to step away from the comic book style and walk into a whole new arena, thats great but do it right, and I don’t feel they have. Take the scene when they are transporting Dent, the SWAT guy riding shotgun delivered so many terrible lines that took away so much of the seriousness of that scene. Hes making these casual nonchalant remarks about horrendous destruction thats going on. Wheres the gritty, seriousness in that? And tagging it as a good time to lighten the tension with humor is just a terrible idea.
GA, we can do this for every movie, and it seems to me you are looking for holes in the movie. I mean if you want to rip our beloved OOT movies, I really don't think you want to go down that road. How does the Empire get the AT-AT's on the Hoth? What do they just drop them off from the Star Destroyers? I mean they just appear from broad daylight, ready to fight. But do I really care after how great the movie is? It is a fantasy movie that tries to give a dose of reality. Sure there are some things you question, it is like that in every movie in this genre, but I think if you are looking for plot holes in these movies, you are going to find them. Geez, I would tell you not watch the Original Superman, cause he is going to turn back time after Lois gets killed, and makes you wonder, "Anytime something goes bad, why doesn't he turn back the earth?" As I said GA26, I really don't have any problem with you not liking the movie, and I am not trying to convince you otherwise, but it just seems like you are guys are looking for anything wrong in this movie, when I can honestly say I enjoyed iy, and I'll let the little stuff slip.
Ok thats great. Star Wars is set in a different galaxy. You mean go down the road where I join a community of fans unpleased with the original versions of Star Wars who edit the movies to have more contunity and less "flaws." Yeah I think I might be close to that road. The "flaws" in TDK just really stood out to me and really took me "out of the movie," I found it difficult to hold the suspension of disbelief with TDK casue I contuinally felt I was getting knocked out of it. It went back and forth between realisim and fairy tale too much for me to believe it. There was too much inconsistancy. Im not saying every movie I like is flawless and doesnt have its issue but this movies issues really stuck out like a sore thumb to me and I could not enjoy it for that reason.
