It's a great film ruined by being waaaaaaaaaay too long.

Dark Knight was great. The other two in the trilogy were mid with meh villians.
All 3 were great with tdkr being the best

The Dark Knight is one of the best movie trilogies perhaps ever.
Each film covers a different theme of Batman, the adventure in Batman begins, the detective in The Dark Knight and finally the action in The Dark Knight Rises.

Have to channel my name sake and state that you are unfortunately, factually wrong.
I don't think you can remove any part of TDK without losing something from the story, it might be just over 2 and a half hours but the narrative is tight enough that it justifies that run time.

[STAFF][SIZE=18px]Revisions to the moderation of the ban on the word "cunt"[/SIZE]
2.18.2025
The word will be banned with no differences based on target or user's gender.
First time will be given a much lighter moderation before proceeding back to more severe ban durations.
Adjustments to the banners. (Durations are guideline starting points).- User Banned (3 Days): Perpetuating Misogynistic slur; Don't Do It Again.
- User Banned (1 Month): Perpetuating Misogynistic Slur; Prior Ban for the Same
Additional Considerations & Details
- The primary concern is and always has been the word creating a less comfortable if not hostile environment for some women.
- Context in other cultures and countries.
- Some places have a more normalised usage. However there are still women who feel otherwise from these countries and places.
- It remains our hope that each community is welcoming to members and takes consideration of things that make the community less welcoming.
- Unlike in speech where it is one and done a forum persists longer. Whether users are browsing later, going back to reply to a quote or following a conversation the slur will remain present again and again on the forum.
- In consideration of the above, we felt it fair to give others a less harsh first time offense while reinforcing the desire to curb the word from the forum. We also recognise that it is unlikely their intention to cause discomfort to women reading and have focused the banner to reflect perpetuation of harmful language rather than a banner than felt like being labelled a misogynist.
- Recognising usage & patterns on Resetera
- The primary usage across the site is as a derogatory. Even ignoring the misogynistic lens the word remains one of the harshest in most cultures.
- The usage is primarily towards figures who have done or are planning to/doing something that is of significant harm to others. Eg. Politicians in the UK with policies that directly harm trans people.
- The immediate contention is when users are banned when using this word to express criticism towards bigotry and similar instances. It is evident that there is no intention in these post to harass or otherwise provoke readers using the word and moderating these often feel like tone policing or restricting criticism. However it remains part of what drives the word usage and it doesn't serve to benefit anybody to allow usage that causes unintended friction between different groups on the site.
- One issue we did not foresee is that when users gather to express disagreement on the bans in such instances it further cause friction as it can feel like the concerns of the slur is being dismissed. Seeing many users pushback on it and calling for conditional allowances can feel very much like boys club behaviour further driving some women away from the site. It is however evident that driving women away from the site is ultimately not what any of the users or staff involved want.
- We have dramatically reduced the duration of the first ban to ease the pressure on members venting frustrations at critical issues. We are however serious about the ban otherwise.
- We will also be stricter on this type of meta-commentary in threads where bans take place, if you have constructive feedback you can post in the constructive criticism and discussion thread.
- The best moderation remains as self moderation. We understand your frustrations but blasting someone who will unlikely ever read your comment here is not a reason to make the place unwelcoming to others. If you see a friend post it, tell them to edit it. If its gone by the time a moderator reviews the report we're all good.
- Reclamation, affirmation, affection & empowerment
- We recognise these aspects in different communities and parts of the world. Usage where it is not an insult is incredibly uncommon and has honestly not been an issue for us.
- We won't be banning usage such as "serving cunt" or "cunty" which have their own usage and meanings in the queer communities. Concerns of dog whistling or using these to try and circumvent the ban should still be reported for moderators consideration.

Uno reverse card. This is factually incorrect.

There are many like The Godfather and of course movies with more than 3 parts. Although I consider the first 3 Bourne films another trilogy for example as well as Indy 1 - 3.
The consistency of quality of the TDK trilogy is key though.

These embarrassing cunts 
It appears there are no actual revisions to using the word "cunt", despite the title.
And that it also appears that AliceAmber is likely the source for most of the insane bans we see here, if that writing style is any indication.
