About The Dark Knight Trilogy:
#BatmanBegins: Acclaimed director Christopher Nolan explores the origins of the legendary Dark Knight. In the wake of his parents' murders, disillusioned heir #BruceWayne (#ChristianBale) travels the world seeking the means to fight injustice and turn fear against those who prey on the fearful. With the help of his trusted butler Alfred (#MichaelCaine), Detective #JimGordon (#GaryOldman) and his ally #LuciusFox (#MorganFreeman), Wayne returns to Gotham City and unleashes his alter ego: Batman, a masked crusader who uses strength, intellect and an array of high-tech weaponry to fight the sinister forces that threaten the city.

The Dark Knight: The follow-up to Batman Begins, The Dark Knight reunites director Christopher Nolan and star Christian Bale, who reprises the role of Batman/Bruce Wayne in his continuing war on crime. With the help of Lt. Jim Gordon (Gary Oldman) and District Attorney #HarveyDent (#AaronEckhart), Batman sets out to destroy organized crime in Gotham for good. The trio proves effective. But soon the three find themselves prey to a rising criminal mastermind known as #TheJoker (#HeathLedger), who thrusts Gotham into anarchy and forces Batman closer to crossing the fine line between hero and vigilante.

[MichaelJaeYT]

The Nolan Batman trilogy really changed the game

[Elrolypoly]

Marvel has a whole universe and they still can’t take down or beat this trilogy

[havok]

"people gonna be watching the dark knight trilogy 20 years from now" couldnt have said it better, still holds true to this day this trilogy is timeless

[kapervee]

Heath Ledger simply blew my mind away with his portrait of the Joker. Never ever has a villain been played that realistic scary.

[markosgraveyard]

Chris Nolan: *This fanbase deserves a better class of superhero... And I'm gonna give him to them...*

[dungphamthimy]

this trilogy is not over-rated. it deserves every bit of praise it gets and more.

[harryisamuggle]

This was not only the best Batman series but even compared to all the Marvel and DC stuff, this trilogy stands out. Casting, soundtrack, picturization, story, sets, everything was perfection! That sort of perfection is so rare. The way you feel after watching this trilogy, no other Batman or superhero movie will ever achieve.

[jeffphillips]

I remember seeing the dark knight with my dad as a kid in theaters. I couldn't describe the feeling of seeing it for the first time it really was a masterpiece

[macheleddy]

Nolan gave us a comic masterpiece we might never see again.

[mohdhairi]

Why this trilogy is a masterpiece ?

1. Nolan
2. Hans Zimmer
3. Christian Bale
4. Its a film not a comic superhero
5. Aaroon Eechkart, Heath ledger & Tom Hardy

[BlueFF]

Instantly makes me want to rewatch the whole trilogy.

[nomadlad]

"It's not about the money, it's about sending a message."
Joker's words really speak for what they were going for.

[Peak_thingz]

The documentary we needed not the one we deserved

[Takaichi-]

The amount of effort that went into this trilogy is amazing and hearing how the studio gave Christopher Nolan so much freedom actually amazes me

[lucyprevo]

Guillemoro del Toro has such a way with words, he's such an incredible and talented director

Why wasn't Hans Zimmer mentioned at all? He had such a huge role to play with these films! Without his scores, the films seriously wouldn't have had the same effect!

[charr]

the fact after years we're still talking about the trilogy

[baskarafahlevy]

"It's not about merchandise"

Disney : *gulp*

[jbp]

I like how it opened with "This is not about merchandising, how many toys you can sell" to show that was the state of Superheroe movies back then. They set the Bar for all Superhero movie story telling, to the point it become a part of movie history.

[crazypills]

I was never a fan of Batman till I watched this trilogy. The set up, the actors, the story, the atmosphere, the ost...everything is AWESOME.

And I started getting the comics too. A recopilation of the best of the best.

Thanks to all these people who worked so hard to make this happen.

[ryandunno]

Putting the Joker, without makeup in that military lineup was really brilliant. It showed he wasn't really a crime boss and would do the work that had to be done, himself.
