His action sequences are beautiful to look at. His talking sequences are pretty bland.

Films have to stand on their own, but that doesn’t mean they can’t USE the source material. Which is what I was pointing out, the funky voice thing is a standard trope in the Batman comics that previous film makers have chosen to ignore, and Nolan chose to use. The idea stands on its own, but it’s useful to understand where it came from.

I’ve never liked Superman, in my book all Superman movies are unwatchable, I will probably be skipping the Nolan/ Snyder one even though I like them because Sups makes me want to puke.

I dont care about Superman either but I am a big Richard Lester fan and S2 is something of a masterpiece falling in with the themes of his other films (Petulia, Robin & Marian even A Hard Day’s Night).
