Saw it again for the 2nd time today. MUCH better the second time around. MUCH better. I understood every damn thing that was going on.
I found out what the disconnect was from the first movie, though. Bruce never once discusses his roots - his childhood, his parents, Ra's Al Ghul. This is what have the first movie a human element; something that, I thought, was lacking in the 2nd movie. There was a trifecta of Batman, Joker and Harvey Dent in this show. Hence, less focus on Batman and his personal development than in the first show.
Also, I don't like the way the Scarecrow was used in the 2nd show. People might not like him as a villian, but I do and I wish he was used to be a little bit more threatening in the show.
