I thought fanboys had at least seen the Good the Bad and the Ugly. I guess not.

P.S.- Goldfinger the best third movie ever? Ha! It's not even the best Bond movie within the first three, it's just the most well known. That honor goes to From Russia with Love.

What you call a ‘weakness’, it is the ultimate definition of The Batman.
Even though Batman is a highly trained guy, his main combat weapon is… (you guessed it)… SURPRISE. Just like it is for a real Bat. The main objective of The Batman is to finish it off quickly IN THE DARK by subdueing his opponents AT CLOSE RANGE without letting them know what hit them. Just to blank them out fast enough.

And in order to experience the clarity of the fights long enough, the opponent should also be some sort of martial art expert to stand up long enough to The Batman. Otherwise it is finished as soon as it has started …which is … most of the times for the untrained opponents of The Batman.

The critically acclaimed Graphic novels of Batman also define his fights in a spooky way (with the exception of perhaps ‘The Cult(1988)’) which is the way it should be.
‘Batman Begins (2005)’ had the fight scenes correctly depicted. But I, a movie-fan and a Batfan, was disappointed to see a talented director like Nolan to give way to some demands of the so-called ‘Batfans(?)’ and to show the Batman fighting clearly in TDK which is not correct. Nolan should not have compromised on his own clear vision.

MY POINT: Batman is not just an ordinary martial art expert like Bruce Lee but is also a STEALTH fighter with Ninza-trainings. Period.

2. And this is a personal opinion of a ‘Nobody’ like me (atleast NOT from the film industry) but… Harry Potter movies suck. James Bond movies suck (Except may be Craig’s Casino Royale(2006)).

3. ROTK is a Very Good movie but NOT a ‘THIRD’ Good movie. All LOTR parts branch out from a single story. Period.

4. Examples of a THIRD GREAT movies could be :

I) Shyamalan’s ‘SIGNS(2002)’ if we just consider that it, alongwith, ‘SIXTH SENSE, THE(1999)’ and ‘UNBREAKABLE(2000)’ make together a top-class Shyamalan SPOOK trilogy.

II) Ratner’s ‘RED DRAGON, THE(2003)’ of the brilliant ‘Hannibal Lecter’ Trilogy. (The fourth part did not really live up to the expectations.)

5. Examples of a THIRD GOOD movies could be :

I) Mission Impossible-3. (Atleast better than the Woo’s Second Part)

II) Jurassic Park III (1999 OR 2001 – I can’t recall the year.) – Technically brilliant. A really thrilling movie made with the Dinos as stars.

III) Terminator-3(2003) was also a ‘Third’ Good movie but hugely dissappointing in terms of what we expected from a successor of masterpieces like T-1(1984) and T2(1991).

6. A Batman is different than a Spiderman. A Batman has a very strong dramatic character and a room for development/expansion unlike other superheroes. So any ordinary efforts on Batman by the standards of an extra-ordinary helmer like Christopher Nolan will still result in a ‘Very Good’ Batman movie.

But it would be good for everybody if Nolan takes a break from Batman for a while, cleans his mind-slate and gives us an another ‘Memento’, ‘Imsomnia’, or ‘The Prestige’ before jumping to Batman-3(2011 ?).

For now, Let’s just wait for Angels and Demons(2009).

or even Army of Darkness? That was a good third movie. Or Star Trek 3 with the fooking search for Spock damn it!

of all the movies that you could have listed…yeesh.

Don’t get me wrong – I’m a massive Star Wars fan, but RotJ was the first glimpse that George Lucas had lost his damn mind. Ewoks instead of Wookies? The complete removal of Chewbacca’s backstory? This was the point where Lucas stopped making scifi/fantasy epics for adults and started making merchandising films for children.
