What it matched
About the lettering
Nolan's trilogy set its titles as plain white capitals with no effects, a deliberate break from the custom gothic lettering of the Burton and Schumacher films. Secondary coverage describes the Dark Knight and Dark Knight Rises titles as progressively bolder versions of the same Begins treatment rather than new designs, which is why the trilogy is one record, anchored on the Begins poster.
