For example, people bring up the Dark Knight all the time. It wouldn't have been possible if WB didn't think superhero films were worth making, and also wouldn't have been the same without specifically the Batman films that came before it.

Not to mention a downright wretched predecessor, IMHO, in Batman Begins.

I'd rather have a big pile to sort through with some hidden gems in it than a tiny selection with the same good to bad ratio.

Hear, hear. I always point to pro sports, especially American football. I don't give a damn about the NFL, and mentally rolled my eyes whenever my former office would start dissecting the latest games, but I didn't wish, on the Internet or otherwise, that the institution would dramatically shrink, or even vanish. (Even though I think I could make solid arguments for why pro sports culture is bad for society in a way that dwarfs any potential downsides of comic book flicks.) I don't use this analogy to attack you, Canon Editor; rather, to promote a carefree, live-and-let live Zen attitude. ;)

Wait, wait, wait… what do I have to do with all of this?  
Anyways… no attack taken.  ;)

I actually like Batman Begins the most of the three ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Me too!
 
^I feel the same, actually. The Dark Knight is just the one popularly associated with high quality in the public eye, so it made more sense as a shorthand example.
 
I actually love “Batman Begins” too, but “The Dark Knight” is extremely close behind it!
 
^What an amazing worthwhile thing to post in the "Avengers: Age of Ultron" thread.

Brb going to find the "Batman Begins" thread to talk about how I love the "Avengers" films.
