Joel Schumacher destroyed the Batman franchise. Christopher Nolan redeemed it with his incredible origin story Batman Begins, which brought the dark knight into a whole new gritty light that made Nolan's Batman an entirely new entity in the superhero genre. While Christian Bale's Batman voice could use some work, his portrayal of Bruce Wayne is spot on. I'm glad they stayed true to the Dark Knight's origins and showed his time with the League of Assassins (Shadows, in the movie) and his training with Ra's al Ghul, portrayed magnificently by Liam Neeson.

I must also mention Cillian Murphy's chilling and brilliant Scarecrow, a villain I once thought impossible to translate to the big screen without looking ridiculous. I have been proven wrong. I doubt there will ever be a more perfect superhero trilogy than the one that begins here.
