It felt like something was... missing. I needed to see if Batman actually had any long term effects on Gotham City, which we saw in TDK that he did. Plus, the theme of fear in BB didn't mean much to me. People get murdered every single day, and it didn't ring true to me that someone would be that traumatized by it.

And I'm one of the few people who think that Christian Bale was BETTER in The Dark Knight than "Begins". I just couldn't relate to him in Begins, but I could understand him in TDK.

🍺 Fair enough,but the reason,I think it did not show whether Batman had any long term effects on gotham city was simply because like the movie say's It's the Beginning.

Unlike seemingly most people, I actually like Star Wars more than Empire. Partly, because Empire doesn't make any sense unless you saw the first SW.

In order for a sequel to be better than the first, I think that someone who never saw the first should be able to follow the story without explanations. Especially with sci-fi/fantasy type movies.
