While I don’t agree that it would be "funny" if TDK sucked, you have to admit that our "faith" in filmed adaptations of our beloved comic book heroes does leave us wide open for that all-too-often sucker punch.

I just find it amusing that every single summer has that one film that's already enshrined as the BEST [blank] MOVIE
EVER!!! before it even opens. Yes,
Batman Begins was a very good movie, and, yes,
Dark Knight looks like it could very well be an excellent sequel that improves on it's predecessor, but, honestly...TAKE A BREATH, people. I
don't want this movie to disappoint, but every single summer has that one (usually more like two or three) "sure thing" tentpole film that always gravely disappoints even after it rakes in $200 million.
