Sums up Dark Knight perfectly.
I totally just obscured my last post lol. I always seem to do that to my own posts. Jumping to next page.

Whereas Nolan Utterly blew my mind with The Prestige. One of my favorite period pieces(if not THE favorite).
IMO Inception was more of him taking a chance as a director which i dont mind at all, but it seems like there are some people who think Nolan's shit sparkles. I give props where props are due, but i also found it a bit insulting that whenever i tell people i didnt like inception or TDKR its about the same reaction as when i tell the i didnt like Avatar. A mixure of confusion and a bit like ive insulted them in some way. I never said they were retarded for likeing it. Just that it wasnt as great as its made out to be.
TDKR was by no stretch a shitty movie, but it had major plotholes. If not story wise then character wise. And the final nail in the coffin for me was how bane ultimately was killed. Anti climactic as ****.

Hey I know how that feels.
Write some great stuff and maybe one geek in the whole world would actually read it. I'll repost it for ya. I agree 100%

I honestly didn't enjoy the Prestige that much. Probably because I found it to be predictable.
And I enjoyed DKR more than DK, but that was due to the villains more than anything else tbh.

Dude, I'm tired of arguing with you.... as much as you're fed up with my criticisms.
Just take note of 3 things:
1) I didn't start this thread.
2) Nor was I the 1st to even mention TDKR.
3) You simply fail to notice everyone else's opinions regarding the amount of plot holes in TDKR.
You liked the movie. Good for you.
Did it have a well written storyline?
Sadly, no.

I'm gonna be branded a Nolan Hater again but yeah Inception really didn't amount to all the hype it generated.
The topic of dreams suggests themes laden with fantasy, horror, erotism, fetishes etc. Yet all the movie really broke down to was a mediocre car chase, a floating hotel lobby scene & lastly a very Bondesque cliched gun battle in the snow sequence.
The Prestige on the other hand was good fun. Totally enjoyed it.
I thought all of Nolan's films were awesome except for TDKR. I felt Nolan wanted to "one up" TDK and make something epic and grand in scope (Return of the King style) and came up short.
But as for this thread, Prometheus easily easily easily had the most plotholes out of any film I've since this year.

Christ, I don't think even Avatar was ridiculed as much as TDKR.
To be fair though, Avatar sucked. It was basically Pocahontas on LSD featuring smurfs on steroids as opposed to Native Americans.
TDKR faced high expectations, and in attempt to somehow outdo Dark Knight ended up creating several blatant plot holes. I still thought it had plenty of spectacular moments though.

dude its based on hate and ignorance.. you do know that millions of people around the disagree with you?? thats not even counting the already thousands the dark knight rises has sold on dvd/blu ray.. also unfortunately for you, studios and directors really don;t care what message boards say

Man, you really like to exaggerate your point just to hide the lack of substance to your posts.
The title of this thread is: Most plotholed film in 2012.
Approximately 30 different people posted in this thread. 1/3 of them nominated TDKR as the most plotholed film for this year.
I can name them all.
Can you name the "millions of people around the world" who disagree with me?
Hell, I don't even see/hear a response from you regarding all the points brought up in the You tube clip.
Yep.
I strongly agree with this article.

I strongly disagree with it. The author is clearly butthurt because people are pointing out pretty clear problems in movies he liked. So the dissonance he feels has to be resolved, somehow, so he wrote that article explaining how he gets over the dissonance.
You can have a virtually plothole-less movie...it can be done. Many have been made. In fact, I think it is difficult to write a plothole riddled movie like TDKR. It is pretty amazing that a movie like that is riddled with so many legit plotholes: they had to go out of their way to make some of the plotholes happen.
