User blog comment:Wikiwikiwhat/Christopher Nolan is an evil mastermind!!!!/@comment-5190500-20120831040417

Your theories on Nolan's ulterior motive (Oscar noms.) and the Superman trailer are correct, but everything else is wrong. First off, I think Nolan definitely used enough of the bat books to keep it recognizable with the franchise (see Ihu's comment if you don't believe me). Secondly, Batman Begins just wasn't a great batman movie (worst of the trilogy). It had enough action but there weren't any real moments where I empathized with the new batman. To be honest I kind of felt more of a connection with the villain (Liam Neeson) than the hero (Christian Bale). The best part about that movie was the supporting characters. In short, Nolan is creative, ambitious, and opportunistic but that doesn't make him evil.
