My serious reason for preferring BB to DK: in BB Nolan created a much darker, more aesthetically interesting version of Gotham that feels like a careful and authentic movie realization of the comics. In DK we leave the more intriguing setting of creepy Gotham for a replica of NYC.
DK becomes heavily about the moral drama and handles it effectively, obviously with an unbelievable performance from Ledger, but it doesn’t have the same aesthetic, stylistic coherence of BB.
