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.
#TheDarkKnightRises: Eight years ago, after assuming the blame for D.A. Harvey Den's death, a disgraced Batman (Christian Bale) mysteriously vanished. But everything changes with the appearance of a cunning cat burglar (#AnneHathaway) and the arrival of #Bane (#TomHardy), a ruthless madman. Bane's reign of terror forces Bruce out of his self-imposed exile and into the ultimate battle for #GothamCity's survival.and his own.

Nolan gave us a comic masterpiece we might never see again.
Machel Eddy I’m starting to think we might see something close in 2021 with The Batman 👀
And what’s awesome is Christopher Nolan’s resume. He got a degree in English literature, yet made a short film called “Following.” That short film’s success let him direct “Memento” and “Insomnia.” He only had 3 films under his belt because his directorial approach (our concept of reality, epistemology, metaphysics) and he was granted the HONOR to create this trilogy.
NOTE: I think Batman Begins, Dark Knight, and The Dark Knight Rises are all amazing FILMS. But as Batman movies, “Batman Begins” takes the cake for me.
@@rileybrooks6212 Not even close.
Alexander Kings agreed. Nolan’s trilogy set the bar for adding cinematic realism to comic book movies. But his directorial and writing approach is always based on our sense of reality, epistemology, and metaphysics, yet done in an artistic way that is digestible. To this day, so many studio executives are trying to replicate this filmmaking style, which is why a lot of studio-mandated films that TRY end up failing.
@Alexander Kings you don’t think it will be the next Great Batman trilogy?
this trilogy is not over-rated. it deserves every bit of praise it gets and more.
If anything, it’s underrated
@@well7885 because of marvel fanboys
@@keencow9659 I'm a Marvel Fanboy........But I always love and praise this movie.........Stop targeting opposite fanbases..........Guyz like you spread the hate no matter it's DC or Marvel
@@anmolshoral I like both marvel & dc. I wasnt trying to hate. I was just saying since marvel fanboys exist, they are missing out on the dark knight trilogy and hating on it. Thats why its underrated
@@well7885 Hahaha, curious of you to say that when, after more than a decade, these movies are still widely considered as the best comic book movies ever made
"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
And we’re getting scarily close
20??!!!! 1000000!!!!
@WyattWinters we are actually. These movies came out since i was 6 years old.
The trilogy holds up amazingly well to this day.
Re watching them as we speak, still my favorite trilogy of all time
Heath Ledger simply blew my mind away with his portrait of the Joker. Never ever has a villain been played that realistic scary.
It's a real shame he couldnt see our praise for his joker portrayl...
Yes but joker isnt just as scary he is funny crazy too and that missed in ledger‘s joker
@@ati1903 didn't you see his pencil trick?
@@pointysidedown gg7
@@emjay2d death isnt ht end he woudlbe in heaven death isnt bad it is our body that and which dies not ou soul so yes
Marvel has a whole universe and they still can’t take down or beat this trilogy
Mcu reached the height of their career in endgame and even that can’t top this. Don’t get me wrong I like both but the mcu can never really reach this level of storytelling, the mcu is more like a brand and wants to keep going to make money but the TDK trilogy is a story with a beginning, middle, and end it’s truly beautiful and will be remembered for being the greatest comic book trilogy.
I beg to differ but you are entitled to your own opinion and so am I also I like this trilogy not trying to hate on it
@@interstellarhorse8660 no yeah I get it. Honestly I love the mcu especially winter soilder or infinity war since they’re more serious and have a better story to them than most mcu films.
@@raulcasarez2150 I swear in the MCU movies, Winter Soldier was the only one which wasn't a disappointment (that wasn't a comedy). I loved winter soldier, the choreography was amazing.
@@breadyboy6961 would I be missing out on anything or not be able to fully grasp the winter soldier if I watch it without watching the first movie?
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
6. Liam neeson, gary oldman
Edit: And Michael Caine, and Jaime Foxx, and Cillian Murphy
@@G3-7162 is Morgan Freeman, not Jamie Foxx
@@dumitruflorin Yep. Thanks. This is me being fully incapable of functioning lol
"4. Its a film not a comic superhero" Yay, invalidating a whole genre is so fun!
Michael Caine (Alfred) was the show stealer, man behind the Dark knight
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.
Too bad the fight scenes were so rough. (Still a masterpiece imo)
@@yourmomshouse6984 By rough do you mean bad? What was bad about the fight scenes?
@@yourmomshouse6984 Agree. kind of slow for a fight scene. For me when I watch Nolan movie, is all about the story and the wow effect.
Its also one of the best movies overall not just superhero movie
As much as anyone might differentiate between a trilogy and a "shared universe", Marvel absolutely wound up with the former in the MCU. They may be continuing in their phases, but there are enough milestones in their own meta-story to categorize Phases 1, 2, and 3 as its own super trilogy. The thing about consuming a story is that a self-contained tale with a definitive ending to any significant degree will always resonate with readers, viewers, and gamers.
The documentary we needed not the one we deserved
We need and deserve Robert Pattinson's Batman now.
I am sorry to say this but Pattinson already thrashed Christian Bale with 2 minutes trailer alone.
@@ashokkumarganesan3927 I know we all got excited for the new Batman and the trailer was amazing for everyone but let's not say it's better than this trilogy.We will see how the movie does,it does look promising but let's wait to see The Batman to really say which one you like better.
@@leonardoestrada6955 exactly! We are interested to see Robert Pattinson's Batman because Christian Bale made the character famous
ashok kumar ganesan have u seen the movie? stop comparing bc if roberts batman kills... everyone gonna walk out of the theater especially me🖕🏼😂
@@itsmepeterparker4618 exactly
Chris Nolan: *This fanbase deserves a better class of superhero... And I'm gonna give him to them...*
Chris to WB: all you care is about money
He gave it to us. Greatest Superhero Trilogy ever.
Basing it more in reality is what really made it great.
This film is like noie detective and set modern with terrorist and economic problems
😍
@@Brandonhayhew noire
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
i didn't see any of the trilogy in the theaters, i used to scoff at superhero movies. Why i'm commenting right now is that i just told my dad that i'm gonna take him to see Oppenheimer on Imax here in Beirut.
Same
Instantly makes me want to rewatch the whole trilogy.
I'm actually going to rewatch them all today!
The Nolan Batman trilogy really changed the game
Definitely
Not just the game.. But cinema
Jeffrey Lebowski not just cinema... but the world
Totally agree
So true
"It's not about the money, it's about sending a message."
Joker's words really speak for what they were going for.
Shame that now movies have become cashgrabs more than anything else
@@Chowder12345able well there's Logan and Joker with Joaquin Phoenix that wasn't made for teens like those Batman movies.
And Matt Reeves looks like he doesn't scared to fully embracing the violent approach.
So you're wrong
@@ashokkumarganesan3927 I'm talking in general terms e.g. films that are mediocre at best, but garner a lot of attention and enough money to have sequels made. Also, though I liked the MCU movies, most of them were formulaic in their approach, so idk if I'll be dying to watch any of the new stuff like I was for IW and Endgame
@@ashokkumarganesan3927 wow 2 movies out of hundreds, you sure are right!!!
@@akchanneltv4084 I only mentioned comic book movies since most people here wouldn't know other great non-comic movies since they doesn't have Batman or Joker in them.
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!
came here to say the same thing, I thought this was a fantastic documentary but not hearing from Hans Zimmer leaves a pretty gaping hole in it!
@@sheawilliamgalley9608 And 99.99999% don't know who James Newton Howard is
I actually felt the impact of Zimmer because his score was used throughout the documentary, which communicates how vital was his contribution. Anyone who LOVES FILM knows the importance of sound/score & has certainly heard of Zimmer.
Del Toro is a LEGEND and Nolan. The passion both show for their art is BRILLIANT. Gives you hope knowing theres still a few Great Directors out there.
Best scores ever imo
The Dark Knight truly is the Michael Jordan of superhero films. I remember walking out of the theater thinking,I may never see a superhero film that great ever again. I returned to the theater again 2 weeks later with my brother and his girlfriend
And we won't see it again for a veeeeery long time
see you in 10 years when this gets recommended again and The Dark Knight series is still the best superhero trilogy of all time.
I'll see you too
See you in 2021
Over used comment
Ironman?
Cybersorcerer not as impactful imo
the fact after years we're still talking about the trilogy
my favourite trilogy hands down
The same happens with the Snyder trilogy like it or not.
Well yeah they just released this entire documentary about it
NOPE
@@DerezzedMan ummm nope no one is talking about it. this is ICONIC. Synder's is not. sorry.
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
Can't believe it's the same company that went completely 180 a few years later with the DCEU.
The same thing in the freedom they gave LOTR, turned out to be one of the greatest trilogy's too
@babaniko yeah because they tried to copy what Marvel did beat for beat and just completely rushed through everything instead of developing a cohesive vision
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.
This, I can relate to this, I discovered that I was a DC and Batman fan after watching this trilogy.
except for the actress they used for cat woman. when I saw who they where passing off as cat woman it was kind of embarrassing. It felt forced and cheesy to pass that actress as cat woman.
This Trilogy is sacred and untouchable. Truly magical.
I feel very proud that it came out when I could see and understand these masterpieces.
Not really. Seen better from The Lord of the Rings, Berserk, and Rurouni Kenshin trilogies.
@@fenrir-art4742 Cool story, bro.
FENRIR-ART This got garbage is nowhere near LOTR or Star Wars original trilogy. The idiot that said that is a millennial with no perspective whatsoever.
@@evanjames8817 dont feel like the better man for having a different opinion. Kind of childish.
"It's not about merchandise"
Disney : *gulp*
hehe :-)
I mean, it depends how literal you want to go with that. If you're talking about toys and whatnot, okay, but it's still very much about making money. That is the #1 operating principle of any movie studio, even WB at the time of these. So it's not like there's some broad purity with which any company can stand above another. Mind you I don't say this as a sort of criticism against WB and for these films, I'm a huge Christopher Nolan fan and loved his Batman trilogy (well the ambition more with #3 than its actual quality). It's easy to forget the massive trepidation and doubt that was surrounding the whole Marvel thing when they started. But when it proved so successful and a trajectory was established I can't really blame Disney for indulging into that anscillary market, it's not like having some toy line had the films themselves be sacrificed.
It’s not about merchandising, it’s about sending a message.........
This world deserves a better class of franchise, and I’m gonna give it to ‘em.
@@kevinw712 well look at star wars
Christopher Nolan, is undoubtedly a brilliant director (my favorite) one of the finest of our time. He delivers an interpretation of Batman that will live for generations. Absolutely amazing trilogy. A fantastic script, top-shelf cast, and world-class production. Love it.
Chris Nolan is one of the greatest directors of all time. Hope it continues.
1. This trilogy is for sure one of the top 5 movie masterpieces in the past 2 decades.
2. Heath Ledger is definitely one of the top 5 actors in the past 10 years. Oscar approved.
3. Christopher Nolan is one of the top 4 directors globally in the last 20 years.
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.
The joker is the hero of the movie , burning the Banks money and chasing batman the wallstreet billionaire is the evidence that he was standing for freedom
one of my favourite scenes
@@ramzichouk4080 lol and yet he was proven wrong at the end of the movie
@@mookiestewart3776 how he was proven wrong ?
@@ramzichouk4080 His biggest point he wanted to prove was that deep down people were like him. That when push comes to shove, people will eat each other alive and morality is proven to be a cover. At the end of the movie when neither of the boats explode as the people inside chose death over killing the other boat, this disappoints him and batman even says something like "not everybody is like you"
This documentary is better than some movies!
Better than justice league that for sure
I mean Theodore Rex exists so the bar isn’t high lol
Yes
Documentaries are movies
Like, the third one?
I REALLY thought "The Batman" was phenomenal!!...but the score in this trilogy cant be matched, truly a masterpiece
the batman is just getting started relax
@@cydra_infinity1423 Yikes.

Apparently, a lot of folks enjoy watching paint dry
😄
@@thediseaseisthecure 🖐🏽I certainly enjoyed watching the paint dry.
@@cydra_infinity1423 u can think its boring, and worse than nolan’s. saying its worse in every aspect just lets me know youre ignorant and dont know anything about filmmaking
As much as I enjoyed the epicness of the Marvel series, these three films r beyond anything Marvel ever did. The films in themselves have such emotional sense of life, a man, his failings. They r perfection in acting, characterisation, composition, music, the whole thing is just complete magic. I return to these films time and again...❤
Except for catwoman. That actress did not convince me at all that she has a darkside. They just put a pretty face to play that role and ran with it.
I completely agree. I love marvel and have a lot of fun watching those movies but this trilogy is in a league of its own. Some of the best films ever
Too much CGI ruins a movie.
Forget Marvel 😪
Nolan actually made the the most human of superheroes even MORE human. In past films, most folks rooted for Batman, as Batman was usually the focus with Bruce being thrown by the wayside. Nolan’s writing and Bale’s portrayal allowed you to root for Bruce as much as the Batman. I still remember people cheering in the theater at the end of The Dark Knight Rises.
Definitely a game-changer, IMO.
IMO Christian Bale's Bruce Wayne/Batman is useless character without any character development in all superhero movies.
@@ashokkumarganesan3927 And you’re entitled to that opinion. That being said, Bale’s portrayal of Batman/Bruce Wayne is one of the rare times we’ve actually seen the character develop.
NO.
@@tmc31390 yes bale did a great job and TDKT is the bes superhero movie ever created .
@@ashokkumarganesan3927 Nee oru loosu PUND@
Who didn't have the biggest grin on their face when Alfred sees Bruce in Florence!
Me...
Awful scene...
Blagoy Ivanov it’s a great scene. Bruce is finally happy and living a life beyond Batman, something he wanted to strive for since Batman Begins, yet got stuck along his journey as Batman.
I always thought that was some sort of dream sequence at the end
@@tidepodcocktail That's a really cool way to think about it. I think it is intentionally a little unrealistic that they meet at the same restaurant on the same day by chance, so it could be Alfred's dream for all we know! A wonderful touch to end an amazing movie.
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.
I’ll never forget the first time I saw that Joker card at the end of Batman Begins. I turned to my friend and said “if they make that movie like this one, it’ll be the best movie ever made.” I’m always happy with that prediction. Best Joker 🃏 R.I.P.

There will never be a better Bruce Wayne, a better joker, a better director to direct a Batman movie and definitely not another composer like Hans Zimmer
B: TAS:
AM I JOKE TO YOU?!?!?!??!!?
Christian, Heath and Tom are some of the best in the trilogy
Don't forget the great James Newton Howard with Hans Zimmer in the Dark Knight. He created some magical tracks.. I was a little upset when he was not involved in the 3rd movie. He respectfully moved away. But yeah. Brilliant composer as well..
haha thats exactly what i say. its definitely the best ever alliteration of the dark knight and forever will be
there already was, it was all in batman 1989. sorry.
One of the best behind the scenes I have seen to date. So much detail went into these movies . They resonate , they are beauty art and passion . Wonderful .
I agree. I came here after watching a "behind the scenes" look at CGI which was made well-nigh unwatchable, given the condescending script and tone of the videos presenter, who attempted to ridicule the performances of brilliant actors as being silly & laughable (because the actors are acting with someone in a green or blue suit/wearing stilts or any such pre CGI gear as is necessitated by the process. The subject matter interested me...the horribly negative, disrespectful & petty tone detracted from my enjoyment of the information, guaranteeing I would watch no other offerings from that site. It was, however, a "fortuitous mistake" on my part, as it motivated me to search "behind the scenes" in Google to seek out INTERESTING and in depth pieces on the subjects that interest me. The eloquence of the various interviewees elevates this video (which is of far greater length) to something far beyond others....succinctly describing the differences between the approach to these films as opposed to that of other franchises.
Nolan is the LEGACY that many generations admire! Mark my words
10 years later this is still one of the best films made.
Ofc
better than Meet the Spartans?
15 years 👍🏼
@@FoodforThought12345678dsds idk, Meet the Spartans is truly a masterclass in filmmaking
10 years later and Warnerbros had not topped this trilogy.
Nolan hit the nail on head from the beginning with the quote, "As a man, I'm flesh and blood, I can be ignored, I can be destroyed; but as a symbol... as a symbol I can be incorruptible, I can be everlasting." Batman is symbol. Batman could be anybody. That was the difference between Nolan's trilogy and all other comic book movies.
actually symbols can be corrupted.
@@emp0rizzle No, they can't - their meaning is absolute and unchangeable. But the people representing the symbol are corrupted all the time.
@@emp0rizzle The quote doesn't say "I always am", or even "I am". It says "(As a symbol) I can be....". Big difference. Next time you try to correct somebody, make sure you are capable of "actually" comprehending what you are reading.
bruce wayne realistically is the only one who could be batman imo hes got the money and wayne enterprises supplying him with gear. other people were trying to be him but the difference is they wear hockey pads and dont have access to the gear
@@thasheppard5348 maybe a fatman
Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, Gary Oldman, Liam Neeson, Cillian Murphy, Heath Ledger, Tom Hardy, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Katie Holmes, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Anna Hathaway. A Sky Full of Stars.
I truly have a greater appreciation for this trilogy the older I get and the more I learn.
“We weren’t making a Batman movie…we were making a Chris Nolan movie”🤯🤯🤯
I’m a bit disappointed that this didn’t have a segment for Hans Zimmer.
Really disrespectful. Especially for his score in DKR
obiray there is a section about the score on the dvd extras. Really interesting the way he constructed the theme for the Joker.
Right? The movies are great but they wouldn't have the same punch without that man.
dang i am halfway through and kept wondering if he was gonna show up
Danni Rodriguez i feel like they asked him to join the documentary. They couldn’t leave out hans zimmer he was a big part of the story as well but who knows
Props to Warner Bros that they didn't interfere with his vision.
Like Sony did with Spider-Man 3 and ruined it
@@dunkuzi5695 couldn't agree anymore
But The Dark Knight Rises still ruined the trilogy though.
It undo everything and made The Dark Knight look like unnecessary/filler episode in the middle.
@@lickenhuntsman5338 I think alot of that had to do with the passing of Heath Ledger. I believe if he didn't pass we could've had a solid trilogy. Nolan's heart probably wasnt fully in it because im sure he saw a way of ending this series and sometimes the passing of someone can alter that. Carrie Fisher's passing changed plans to make Ep.9 her movie despite their not being a solid plan. Its the unfortunate sad side of the business
@@lickenhuntsman5338 no, it didn't. Without the dark Knight, there wouldn't be a retired Batman in the dark Knight rises. And there wouldn't be the Rachel convo between bruce and alfred that partly leads to Alfred leaving him. And there wouldn't be the contrast between between joker and bane, brain and brawn. Batman defeated joker with intellect, but bane was a physical villain that he lost to.
Everything about this trilogy is perfection. The actors, the development, the set pieces, the music..
although your username may be missing, you speak facts
These movies are masterpiece. Especially The Dark Knight Rises.
Yes they are. There are a lot of movies that I grew up watching during my childhood but the dark knight trilogy was the crown jewel and childhood treasure. All three are one my favorite movies of all time.
This "Behind the Scenes" is better than the last Star Wars Movies together.
They've been a joke and ruined a series. How they made the prequels look sensible is insane
I rather go solo in my room alone standing than watch han solo stand alone movie
I agree The Prequel movies were trash
Better than all of star wars together..
I agree but what does that have to do with this
How come they didn't talk about Han Zimmers score.
Because the documentary whould have had to be stretched out another 3 or 4 hours. There is SO MANY amazing things to be said about hans zimmer's score in these movies.
@@_Filmosophy_ I was bout to say the same things.
Earth _3_Darkness it’s a huge part of what made these movies so great. They definitely should have talked about it
It plays in the background through the whole length.
Finally a man of culture! I was looking for this comment. A word for Zimmer wouldn’t have costed them an hour, if they could run some unknown guy auditioning who wasn’t even in the movie anyway later on.
Bravo to everyone involved with this very special trilogy. These movies are incredibly meaningful to me---thank you!!
I don't care what anyone says, this is the greatest trilogy in all of film history.
LOTR too!!! I like both
@@JessePinkman-qy5udYep agreed lord of the rings is up there too
If only there was a way to describe the feeling I had when I walked out of the theater after watching The Dark Knight. I honestly felt like I witnessed a true masterpiece in cinematic form.
You did
These movie's blew my mind.🤯
18:50 this is whats wrong with every studio. people will watch anything if you make it right
I also will never forget the feeling I had, when the closing titles and music came up at the end of The Dark Knight.
first time seeing it, it's an incredible movie
only few movies come even close as a first-view-experience.
I think the dark knight trilogy are the only films I’ve ever genuinely finished and instantly seen it as a pure masterpiece. Still rewatch them all the time nowadays
People may disagree with me but for me this trilogy set up the legacy of Batman outside comics. If it wasn't for this trilogy Batman movies would have been just another live action comic movies which comes and fades away with time but this right here is something which will go down in the history of superhero movies as a gold standard and a true justice to the legacy of Batman.
Nolan saved batman
Only a fool would disagree with you. Not even Clooney would disagree with u lol.
It’s become an icon even outside of superhero movies
The dark Knight was the only reason we care about batman. I'm not sure on the math but he takes things like batman and dunkirk.... You know... I'm lost even here
Yeah, I have no doubt Matt Reeves Batman would never been greenlit if it wasn't for Nolans proceeding it. The trailer for that seems to push the theme in even stranger territory. You have to thank Nolan for opening these doors.
fav trilogy of all time. if nolan is ever up to releasing another movie in the batman franchise, it would literally break the internet, regardless of if batman is the main character or not.
Got a feeling that Gary Oldman could've pulled off playing all of the characters in this entire trilogy, even the female ones.
"It's not about selling the action figures, it's about making a great trilogy"
Its not even about making a trilogy
One thing they stressed was that they wanted each movie to be its own movie without sequal baiting
@@MiguelJimenez-uc3yz I think that's what they said at the tdkr promotions obviously
They wanted make a movie which could make a mark
“ It’s not about money... it’s about sending a message”
Disney sweating bullets
Why The Dark Knight was not nominated for Best Picture Oscar is still a mystery to me.
Their simply weren't enough slots. The outcry over The Dark Knight not being nominated was actually what was responsible for the Oscars switching from 5 nominees to the current 10 nominees.
@regulator619 The academy was (and still is) pompous & arrogant as well as close-minded for not seeing "The Dark Knight 🦇♘" as anything other than a popcorn movie or comic book superhero for kids 🙄 ! They're nothing but a bunch of narrow-minded snobs 😡 !
It was nominated and even won in some categories
Because Oscar academy are bitter about Box Office movies
Vighnesh Pillai Because it's a superhero movie. That's it
Batman was my favorite superhero when I was growing up. I used to watch the old Batman movies in the 80's and 90's but they were nothing like TDK trilogy. Because of these movies I started to have this passion and love for superheroes and comic book movies. The dark and realistic vibe with the great story telling and performances really was special and I think after this people took superhero movies seriously.
Wally Pfister's cinematography deserves special mention I think. The visuals throughout all three films get increasingly brilliant, somehow blending grand and intimate, authentic and gothic, seedy and lavish, and grimy and sleek all at once. I particularly love the neon-tinted nighttime car chases, and all the aerial IMAX shots too. That one hovering over the New York skyscrapers in Rises looks like something out of a documentary. Oh and the one in TDK of batman on the ledge of the tower with the blue background is spectacular.
Guillermo del toro : Christopher Nolan is an "Emotional Mathematician"
What a beautiful quote 🙂
I'd say he's a narrative mathematician who knows how to use that skill to emotional effect. The thing he's mathematical about is constructing these puzzle-box narratives with all these different layers, all these philosophical ideas being wrestled with in a way that's fascinating and exciting. He knows how to layer emotional depth into that, which is what makes his films succeed. But emotion isn't the part he's being mathematical about. I'd say Marvel movies are closer to that, where they figure out how to make all the Avengers have interesting dynamics with each other while still driving the main story forward and keeping things lighthearted and funny.
Got me too
I think thats the main problem with his films. There's no emotional connection in his films.
Honestly Iron Man 1, Spider-man 2, Logan and Joker are much better than The Dark Knight.
Nolan better make character driven films like Prestige again instead of making one-dimensional character driven films with plot holes.
When he strikes out with emotional connection he really strikes out (Tenet, anyone???) And he's clearly a filmmaker who's more interested in imagery, structure, and tone than in connecting you with a character's experience. There's always this sense that things are whizzing by and we're never just 'sitting' with any one character and really getting inside their head. But Dark Knight has incredible emotion: the Joker is a paragon of chaos, his madness and total lack of rules keeps you in so much fear. Don't tell me that film's not driven by a character, that character just isn't the protagonist!
The "Behind The Scenes" is just as epic as the whole series. Period.
Are Frank "Riddler" Gorshin and Scott "Variety" Foundas dhe same person??
Believe me Matt Reeves' Batman will be character driven and not plot hole driven like this trilogy

Best Batman and superhero films
The batman of my childhood. I agree with you 100%.
The lack of appreciation Cillian gets for his Scarecrow is heartbreaking . Crane was such an important plot device and despite being just a plot device , his Scarecrow was menacing and charming at the same time.
Also the man is an incredible actor

@@thehyggecentral I like that
@ASAP.69 that's fair
Quite underrated indeed. He's one of the best actors there are, in my opinion. His role in Dunkirk was incredible. Bale was the right choice for Bruce, but man, I would love to see Cillian portray batman. He really knows how to channel that dark and menacing presence...and those eyes...
It's really throwing me off that Jonathon and Christopher are brothers when they have different accents XD
Truly the phineas and ferb of our generation
I don't understand this. Not all siblings/family grow up together until they are adults and it's really not that surprising when they have different accents :\
@@nuvjoti HA
@@nuvjoti Why did i never realize that about that show? Lol
If that throws you off wait until you learn that their other brother is a contract killer.
Heath... your performance will never be forgotten. Sensational.
Absolutely timeless and epic. Chris Nolan will go down in cinematic history as one of the greatest visionaries to contribute to the medium.
Why didn't hans zimmer get any attention?? He did the whole trilogy. He didn't deserve a short millisecond of his face
Agreed, however this is about the principles that Batman is based on and how they showed those visually to the audience.
Might've been busy. That man is always working and in high demand.
Hans Zimmer is a legend no doubt! Here's him talking about his role in batman: th-cam.com/video/xnIasa7n6bI/w-d-xo.html
Han zimmers music really made the dark knight trilogy special
Those scores were legendary, i still listen to tracks from the 3rd film.
"Emotional mathematics" is such a perfect description of Nolan's work
Guillermo is an extremely intuitive and intelligent man. He has a way with words.
The Dork Knight is still the best Batman movie in the entire TDK trilogy.
@@ashokkumarganesan3927 arguably the best superhero movie ever!
Sorry Ledger
Tony Leung in Shang Chi >>> Ledger's Joker
Same with Hans Zimmer’s music
Nolan took this franchise and baked a masterpiece. Hans Zimmer's musical touch was the icing on the cake. Heath Leger's performance was the cherry on top.
I love Christopher Nolan.His vision of filmmaking is next level.
"Warner ...! Waaarneeer!!! - Why have they uploaded that video, dad?"
"Because we have to watch it."
"But the movie came out like ... years ago ..."
"Because it's a documentary that the people deserve. But not the one they needed right now. So we uploaded it. Because it will show the legacy of these films. Because these are not just superhero movies. These are stories about individuals, about great character arcs, about 'The Dark Knight'."
I love you

“I think audiences get too comfortable and familiar in today’s movies. They believe everything they’re hearing and seeing. I like to shake that up.”
- Christopher Nolan.
Well, the man does what he says.
Very true about every single one of his movies
That s why i love the man.I love being shaked up and blow away.
Reventon_ especially inception. Total masterpiece n a mindfuck
55:50 this guy speaking facts.
takes terrific acting performances to make a movie filmed in green screen seem real to me. it is rare. if you think about it, it makes perfect sense. of course acting becomes SO MUCH MORE real and natural when the actors physically find themselves in the environment they are portraying a character to be in instead of being in a massive green room
If there's any superhero movie that deserved an academy award nomination for best picture...it's definitely this movie. No CGI, no corny comedy, and just great writing and cinematography.
Uh, yeah, there is corny comedy, usually awkward one liners from cops reacting to Batman.
No cgi so you telling bats do respond to batman and all those buildings trains did explode
Not a hate comment, but Marvel would never reach this level. Dark Knight trilogy will always be above MCU. THIS IS A MASTERPIECE
the only issue I have with the nolan bros and goyer is no spin offs..we never got a nightwing/robin movie or maybe a harley quinn ivy penguin riddler movie about villains

Grew up with these movies and had the luck to see each one of them on theaters. I can't express enough how much of an influence this had in my life, I hold this trilogy pretty close to my heart.
The new Batman isn't even close.
Cap
39:22 Shout out to Cillian Murphy for giving a shot at the Batman. He's an amazing actor and made the perfect Scarecrow!
I did not see this, but yeah, it is perfect character on new Batman, though audiences already seen him as villain (Scarecrow), i believe it is much more deserving if he gain a little gym to make it perfect..
Yeah, but they made a huge mistake on who they chose to play catwoman. Something tells me they didn't go through screen test with her as catwoman, or maybe they did but the director just liked her to much.

Its definitely been long enough
51:13
@@Vleeslucht What I'm specifically talking about is hearing Heaths coversations with the cast and crew behind the scenes, we've never heard any of this.
I seriously think it would be fascinating to hear him when hes out of character.
Asteelo paparazzi Yeah, there’s absolutely footage out there probably locked away in a vault. Every movie nowadays always has BTS of the actor in his trailer talking to a camera, explaining what and why they’re doing it or getting the Joker makeup on. It was definitely filmed and why they haven’t released any of that over a decade later is startlingly disrespectful to his memory in my opinion.
@@BloodyFlowerFilms Thank you my sentiments exactly, I couldn't have worded it better myself. Warner Bros are holding on to Heaths classic reels selfishly and we'll probably never get to see them.
Im glad this documentary also included the SCORES of the movies. The soundtracks were golden and many times I would play them when im alone on car trips or doing projects around the home. They would elicit such emotion. They would make you remember where in the film did this score take place. :)
I never heard the Del Toro quote of "Emotional Mathematics" to describe Nolan. I feel that sums up the experience of his movies so perfectly. It also encapsulates why some love his movies, and others find them cold. Some expect just emotion, others just want clinical, technically perfect films (e.g. Kubrick). Nolan blends the two, but isn't perfect at either. However, for a large number of people (including myself) it's a great blend
I feel Hans Zimmer played a major part in the movie helping Nolan.
It's very important part what he played. It's disrespectful not to include him in this making video.
Especially considering it was playing in the background the entirety of this feature.
And James Newton Howard. People forget him
inception and interstellar too
Micheal Cain was the Heart of those films. I absolutely loved his portrayal of Alfred.
RIP Michael. Legend.
@@hadid1092 he's still alive
“Were you bitten by a tiger?”
when he tells Bruce Wayne "never".....one word, profound, epic. That is great theatre.
Gary Oldman too
Best 🦇 BATMAN 🦇 ever
Those opening lines from Michael Uslan could not be truer than now. Look at the mess Disney, Marvel, Amazon, and even some WB projects, being put out now.
I just rewatched this trilogy as of October 2022 and this trilogy is still, definitively, the greatest Super-Hero movies made. And in contention for the greatest film series EVER conceived.
One of the greatest trilogies ever created or ever will be created.

jim gordon the most underrated part of this trilogy what an actor
Right?! His performance is VERY underrated and helped shape the legacy of this trilogy. More respect to his name people!
Gary Oldman nailed that role, and the dynamic/relationship between Gordon and Batman was written and portrayed so masterfully. What a great charcter arc on it's own. Each of Batman's/Bruce's relationships in the trilogy are so well fleshed out, you really get to know these characters. Like they said in this documentary, The Dark Knight Trilogy transcends being just a comic book movie, it truly is a masterpiece of film.
@@racheljohnson7177 Exactly he was such an important bridge between batman and gothem and the main symbol of belief and hope and that has to be done so correct to make the story have feeling and attachment
what about Alfred????
@@sammyhax oh him too. Michael Caine delivered and emotional performance and through him we got to see a dynamic between Bruce and Alfred that we've never seen before on screen. Nolan really utilized Alfred's character, not just as a butler, but as a mentor. Alfred was the only family Bruce had left in the world, the only one who understood him as a human being, not as an heir to a corporation. And in this trilogy he was more than just a loyal servant. Before Ras A Ghul he was the person who taught Bruce what a true legacy was and how to look beyond himself to turn into something better than he was. That is why he is so great in this story.
il never forget watching the dark knight for the first time. as a true movie lover i was completely blown away, this is truely one of the best movies ever made
Batman Begins came on tv last night and I just had to sit down and watch the whole thing... again. Only gripe with this feature is how could you not have a huge segment devoted to Hans Zimmer's music?
Yep that music is an important part of the trilogy 👍👍
Maybe he didn't want to get featured in the documentary. Even Talia al Ghul's character is not touched upon. Maybe it was by choice.
I can’t wait to be a father one day so I can show this trilogy to my kids. It’s aged like fine wine
exactly what i was thinking xD
In the coming years all of the Nolan movies will be masterpiece
Prestige
The Batman Trilogy ( especially The Dark Knight )
Inception
Interstellar ( It will be such a masterpiece in time, you can't imagine )
Dunkirk
And when they're old enough show them joker(2019)..A masterpiece like Nolan's trilogy
darsh rakshit Deffinitely when they are old enough man! Seen that movie so many times. Easily one of my favourites

I have to say what truley fascinates me in movies like this is the tremedous teamwork all thru the massive amount of people involved in this. Every one counts so much. Kudos to all of you.
WB: So guys we let the guy who directed the superhero movie have creative control and we enjoyed a massive success. Let's not do this ever again.

Christopher Nolan's batman series will forever go down as one of, if not the best, super hero legacies ever created.
Just my opinion: there never has been nor will there ever be a better Batman than Christian Bale.
I was always a huge Batman fanatic. I grew up with the animated series, the Burton films, comics and graphic novels. I beyond appreciate what Nolan did with Batman Begins. I left the cinema in awe with how much of an impact the film had on me. Not because it was an incredible Batman film, but just because it was an incredible film in general. I was always a movie buff growing up, but Nolan definitely opened my mind up to story-telling. I remember when he announced that he would release The Dark Knight in IMAX and that’s how he wanted the film to be seen. I had never payed any mind to that before, but then I began to research diligently to find a theater that would play it in 70mm IMAX film. It was the most incredible cinematic experience I’ve ever had. I walked out of the cinema saying “that’s probably my favorite movie of all time”. Saw it two more times in the days following. 10 years later I got a Heath Ledger Joker and Bale Batman tattoo because the impact the film had on me never diminished. I’ve also followed Nolan’s work non-stop and I’ve gone out my way to see all of his films on actual film projected cinemas. Thank you Mr. Nolan for this incredible trilogy and immersing us in all of the incredible worlds you’ve created!

Fans: "We never said Thank You for the Dark Knight Trilogy. "

This film ruined many other superhero films. Hacks like Snyder tried to copy it without putting in the care and love that made these films special. #THANKYOUNOLAN
well played.
My eyes got a bit watery now...
@@yousirareahypocrite4464 Nolan Batman movies are great because he played it safe by following silly comic book rules like no killing.
Nolan never attempts to make anything wierd not even try to do something like Lady Killers/Shazam. He never comes out of his safe zone.
Snyder atleast tried to do something different, it didn't work it's fine.
Nolantards learn character driven films I see what your saying, but Batman’s number one rule is no killing. It’s okay to make unique versions of the character but you still have to follow certain things that make the character what it is.
This trilogy has a holy fanbase which will break the day 1 records of the Batman if it's played again in theatres . It can be everlasting
These are the best Batman movies by a mile. Nothing is close. Not Batman ‘89. Not The Batman.
