I think I'd go with Insomnia - which I still love!
i haven't seen the original, but i felt like it was a taut, effective thriller...nothing groundbreaking by any means

do you generally feel that way about bale, or just as batman?
Just as Batman; I think Bale is a very compelling actor in general. I just don't think Nolan or Goyer found much for him to explore in that role.
i see...honestly, i still like the trilogy but i'm not sure it holds up
It does.
At least the first two do.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Batman Returns and Dark Knight are tied for best Batman movie.
Ben Affleck was the bomb in Phantoms, yo.

You didn't like Batman Returns? That's really surprising to me.

While I do really like the Nolan trilogy, it sometimes seems too "realistic" for my superhero tastes. Because of this, Bale's Batman gets ranked below Keaton and probably Affleck.
