I have no problem with the idea of a movie being constructed such that it is only completely appreciable on further viewings. The key thing is that it still be appreciable on first viewing. But I'm perfectly fine with there being things on screen that only make complete sense when combined with the events that follow, and therefore will be of most value on subsequent viewings.
Can't say if that is really the case with TDK but I do know that for the first time in a very long time I am very tempted to see a movie again theatrically.
