Ra's was very much the star of Begins. Everything revolved around him and his teachings. Without Ra's, there's no Batman. Nolan eve admitted his villains were the real stars of his movies.
Interstellar wasn't that good, and Inception was really just the same kind of heist/crime movie Dicaprio usually does.
I doubt Nolan could pull off a story driven purely by a lead who isn't an obsessive.
Ra's has played a big part of the Batman mythos for decades, makes sense to me that a Batman origin film would feature him a lot. Still doesn't stop the film from being about Bruce Wayne and his journey. Even if he makes the villains the "Real Stars" so what? Why is that a bad thing? Interstellar was a terrific science fiction film! Definitely in the top 5 of his best films! The film also tackled global warming being a big threat to our planet, which is a good thing since unfortunately there's a bunch of fucking idiots who think it doesn't exist. Inception is another great film that show that Nolan should be the next director to tackle a James Bond film. Stephen Strange is a protagonist that is perfect for a brilliant film maker like Christopher Nolan! But it wasn't about Bruce. The movie shows Bruce as ineffectual and incompetent until Ra's gets to him. Comics Bruce didn't need Ra's.
Because it means you don't think the lead can lead the movie.
I thought it was dull and preachy.
Inception was predictable, wholly. Especially as Dicaprio was just playing his usual typecast...and once we found out the whole damn think was his own fault it became a lot harder to care.
