Orignal batman movies - The first one was so good because it devoloped the characters well which led you to believe and enjoy their performances.
All the others focused more on putting people in the seats (hence all the big name grabbing, and special effects) which led to pretty enjoyable movies but not really good movies.

Batman Begins is a revamped start to the whole Batman series. They spent a good amount of time deveolping the characters and made their characters real and more believeable. Which made the movie more enjoyable and re-watchable, not to mention the killer effects:)
Dark Kinght looks to have gone the same way. If Health Leadger got so wrapped into the sadistic nature of the Joker that he couldnt sleep at night(eventually leading to his OD on sleeping pills) then you know that they developed the characters as equally well as if not better than Batman Begins. It also looks like they totally developed Harvey Dent AKA Two Face, unlike the previous movie, which(depending on where they end this movie) will make for a killer 3rd movie, if they take it that far.

The reason why they changed the name away from "Batman...." to "The Dark Kinght" is because when Jack Nicholson signed the contracts for the first Batman movie he had it wrote into the contract that everytime Warner Brothers made a movie with "Batman" in the title he would get royalties on the movie. The name change does not signify that they are going away from the comic book path of the series.

But i think the name change suits the "new" batman movies as IMO they are much better than the orginals.
Who knows what they will name the third one though...

The "new" Batman series beats the old ones hands down... Just my .02
