Let me throw this out here right off the bat (pun intended)…

I truly admire Christopher Nolan because of what he did to the Batman film franchise, and for probably what he’ll do for the Superman franchise. These are big studio films, and his previous works were smaller budget, and I think truly prepared Nolan first, in the ability to tell a story. The amount of hands that go into putting a film out to theaters are numerous, and Nolan’s films have seemed to survive the studio edits and put forth a wonderful, worthwhile, movie experience that satisfies both the intellectual moviegoer and the recreational moviegoer.

Some of you might be remarking, “What do you mean intellectual vs. recreational?”
