Batman Begins Nostalgia

[BatmanFurst]

I'm pretty sure Nolan would have called the film just Batman (or maybe The Batman) if he could, The Dark Knight sounds much more like a sequel/follow-up to/progression of Batman than Batman Begins. But Batman Begins is still a fine, even still grand title the movie lives up to.

Rewatching the film a few weeks ago, it's great how it (like Superman) manages to be both grounded and pretty grand/epic.

To piggyback off of that, I've always thought that Batman Returns would've been a better title than Dark Knight Rises. Too bad it was taken at the time.
