I have to say I actually like TDKR much better then the first one now. People that are complaining about plot holes need to realize they have been there the entire series. I even found some of the stuff in the first movie way more cheesy then anything in TDKR. (Ex. Batman calling like a million bats into the warehouse to help him escape from the SWAT team, with a little sonar in his shoe)
Anyway, I really do love this series. I think it will find its place like Star Wars original trilogy and Lord of the Rings as movies that I will rewatch again and again.

I went to the trilogy marathon and I agree with MattyC, it was the best way to view the films. I'll go ahead and say that I still like the first one best but the entire trilogy is really something special. Nolan has accomplished something very great with these films and he's changed the comic book film industry. Batman is the gold standard by which all comic book films are judged. I mean, I am not someone who goes to see a movie multiple times in theatres but I've seen Batman Begins 5 times and The Dark Knight 4 times now. I wouldn't go see these movies so many times in theatres if I didn't really enjoy them. Even though I expected TDKR to go in a different direction story wise doesn't mean I thought it was a terrible movie or that I hated it. I still plan on seeing it again (in Imax) because for the most part it was done well and I did enjoy watching it.
I would really love to know what Nolan's original plan would have been for a third movie had Ledger not died. Would they have done more than 3 movies? I guess we'll never know.
