Even before Warner Brothers started pulling trailers and taming the next screen iteration of Batman in the wake of the Aurora, Colorado shootings, The Dark Knight Rises was a movie that seemed to attract controversy. From little, geeky ones to big, political ones, it seemed like everyone spent the last year arguing about the film–what it would be, what it should be, what certain hints meant or didn’t mean, who would appear…anything said about this movie prior to its release was ripe for someone to generate an argument about it, which isn’t surprising because there were a number of people who were so eager to see how Nolan ended it that they literally would have preferred nothing be said about the film and that they could go in absolutely un-spoiled.So, of all the big, loud conversations we’ve been having over the last year or so, what were the biggest and the loudest?
