Great cut, always love watching njvc's work. Technically flawless, although I did notice Bane's voice was higher in the mix than everything else, I'd assume that was on purpose so we could understand him.

The first half of the original movie is pretty rough, for example I find that whole first scene in the plane unnecessary. njvc left in that scene but did a fine job at improving the rest. All of the changes involving Selina are great. But the second half of this edit really takes off. Pacing was perfect, and I could not take my eyes off the screen. Also of note, he did a great job making the cop fight at the end less ridiculous.

Thanks deadohiosky, Neglify is correct, the volume of Bane's voice is unchanged from the original sound mix. After the backlash regarding Tom Hardy's muffled performance, they raised up the volume to crazy levels, but at least you can understand him now! Thanks for watching and reviewing, much appreciated.

I have been a vocal opponent of TDKR since I saw it in theaters. I was upset at the sense of slowdown in the story right from the beginning. Its a tough film to enjoy in some ways. This edit has addressed much of the problems with it and streamlined the story. There were a few noticeable audio issues, mostly in scenes cutting from one to the next, but I LOVED the addition of the score during Bane vs Batman fight. I also really enjoyed the ending of the film. Personally I would have liked to see more of the "clean slate" cut out, but it works well in this context. For now this will replace my original copy, I just wish some narrative and audio issues were addressed. You have some brilliant ideas here. Overall, very well done!

Thanks Wyndorfdave! Can you let me know where the audio issues are that you mentioned? I thought I had smoothed over the audio transitions, so this surprises me a little. Cheer for watching and reviewing.

I love Batman Begins and Dark Knight as they are, so I jumped straight to njvc's 3rd edit as I always thought Rises was just too long. Couldn't be happier with this edit and it delivered exactly what I was hoping for in almost every way. I was glad the court scene was removed because I'd rather not see it considering Heath's Joker couldn't deliver it as originally intended. Great job njvc!

Thanks for the review slisson! TDKR was the most tricky to edit of the 3, so great to hear you had fun with it.

An excellent end to njvc's The Dark Knight Saga fanedit trilogy! I've been hesitant to rewatch this flick since the theaters, and while it's not as great as it was the first time, I wasn't disappointed. The ending is magnificent. The only thing I wish he'd kept is the "people's court" angle.

I will keep this one short. The only thing that could have made this any better would be more shots of Catwoman straddling that motorcycle. Maybe in slow motion. Perhaps this is a personal thing.
This might be my favorite of the three, though I liked the first one a lot too.
It is hard to review a fanedit when nothing about it feels like it was re-edited by an "amateur" fan--this, as far as I am concerned IS the third Nolan Batman movie. I don't need the original anymore because compared to this, the original now feels like raw footage waiting to be edited in this way.
I almost want to use this space to beg njvc to edit Burton's 2nd Batman movie featuring that other hot Catwoman, and cut out as much Penguin as possible--as I have seen a poorly done edit that illustrated that a good movie lurks in there just waiting for someone of njvc's talent to bring it to light.
But this isn't the place for that. This is the place to say I highly recommend this whole re-edited trilogy.

Thanks anarchemist, I really appreciate the positive feedback and the effort you've taken to watch and review the three films. Great to hear that you enjoyed it so much. As for Batman Returns... Strangely, I like the grotesque penguin! But I certainly don't disagree that both Catwomen looked pretty smashing in their respective getups.
