All of these things were absent from this movie, and I appreciated it much more.

Ha. I can see all of that. I am a huge fan of Ledger's performance, but I'm not one of those people who think that's the end all Joker. I look forward to one day seeing someone else bring a new approach to that character since he's my favorite comic book villain.
Also, I totally agree on the plot being convoluted. I still liked it, but I think a lot of people see that movie with rose-colored glasses. More hard to believe than that Two-Face thing for me was the absolute omniscience and infallibility of the Joker. For someone who's entire outlook is based around chaos, nothing went wrong for him until the last ten minutes of the movie.
I prefer DK to DKR, I think, but I've only seen this one once.
