This is literally the only message board that believes The Dark Knight Rises sucks as a movie. I can buy the problems people have with it. But to say the movie totally sucked proves you're stupid.
After reading multiple posts if yours, I think you are confused on the whole concept of opinions, facts, truths and those kinds of things.
My 2 cents on the whole thing (which I know everyone is dying to know)- The Avengers succeeds and hits a home run when it comes to doing what it set out to do. They made a great movie when you look at it from the perspective of what kind of movie they where trying to make. It's a movie that knows what it is and nails it.
TDKR tries to be too many things. It succeeds in accomplishing none of it. I want to call bullshite so many times. I realize it is a "comic book" movie. But that's like saying Star Wars is just a sci fi movie. It aims to be much higher than that. The twist completely imasculates Bane as the villain. I saw it once in theaters and once on TV and I don't care to ever see it again. Just to be honest, I didn't get the BFD about TDK either.

Everyone should chime in, so yes we're dying to know
Complete agree with this though. I think this idea rings true in more than a few debates here (see the possible upcoming Interstellar reactions compared to Gravity). Identifying WHAT the film wants to do and why they want to do it is extremely important. That's find the place where a film knows exactly what it wants to be.
For the director to communicate that effectively, and for the viewer to find it, is one of those complicated processes that all of our preconceptions and misconceptions can blur.

And I can respect your opinion on that, even though I disagree with it. However...to say the movie was total shite, as some do on this board, is either a symptom of trolling or a symptom of stupidity. I will not back down from that belief.
