My guess is they disapprove of the "arranged" part but are happy to get the inter-species representation nonetheless

2025-01-18 18:14:34 +0000 UTCAs a film student who has done an extensive report on The Dark Knight, including scene by scene breakdown and thematic tones, I don't think that the Dark Knight should be QUITE that highly rated, I understand exactly why. It is a very tight film, despite it's runtime, and every single scene forwards at least two characters arcs or allows the story to progress with no wasted time. Bale is definitely not my favorite batman or bruce wayne, but he is passable. But it is a movie that you honestly have a hard time finding anything overtly WRONG with it. It was a stellar screenplay adapted to screen excellently, scored excellently, and edited excellently. No actors or characters are notable weak links, the dialogue and characterwork is solid. All things considered, it does everything well. But the biggest standout of it was doubtless Heath Ledger. His entire portayal, and his "found footage" torture scene that Ledger himself directed, was very different from the expected norm. And it was phenomenal. And I think that is why Dark Knight is so highly rated from the populace, yet amongst proper critics not so much. The majority of the movie was relatively within expectations, just executed to an amazing extent. But aside from the Joker, it didn't make any real big swings, and that is when you see art truly connect with people. The Dark Knight didnt alienate anyone, but it didnt really focus in on one target audience to be their exact favorite. It's why bulk ratings like MAL mean nothing. You cant numerically rate art. It isnt an objective thing. But what can be given a numerical rating? A subjective feeling towards a piece of media. Doesnt have to sit for all time. It shouldnt pretend to be objective. But if this connected 10/10 with you, and you are super high up on it, then say it. But Dark Knight? I dont think it should be ANYONE'S favorite movie. Maybe in their top 5 if they dont watch a lot of movies.
