Going back to the film. I enjoyed Batman Begins. I enjoyed Batman The Dark Knight. Is Batman The Dark Knight Rises any good?
Well given your history here I bet you'd enjoy this one too.
I thought it was great in any case. There was some debate as to whether The Dark Knight was best, but who cares. It's awesome, go see it.
I'm looking forward to it then.
I don't think it will be as good. Remember the rule of threequels (not an absolute rule).
The rule of 3. The second film/game outperformed the first film/game. But the third didn't get the critical appraisal of the other two. Not all of these are unsuccessful.
X Men 3 (I hear it's the weakest)
Blade 3
Superman 3 (then Superman 4 Quest for Peace)
Batman Forever (then Batman and Robin followed)
Star Trek Search for Spock (good film but not as good as Wraith of Kahn)
Godfather 3
Psycho 3
Jaws 3
Haloween 3
Saw 3
Rambo 3
There are a few exceptions of really successful threequels

Starwars Return of the Jedi
The Good Bad and The Ugly is apparantly the very best film in it's trilogy. It was so successful that A Fist Full of Dollars and A Few Dollars are completly forgotten. That is how badly eclipsed they were.
On the whole, I'm not expecting the Dark Knight Rises to be the best. But I expect it to be good.
