Dumb stuff in TDK? How about an attorney punching a guy in court? Or Batman's super fantastical sonar device (I get the little "in joke", though -- i.e. bats use sonar ultrasound)? Or just what the f*ck happens at the party after Batman falls out the window with Rachel? Or Harvey Dent's very exaggerated burns? Lots of silly stuff in the movie, which is a problem given how credible Nolan tries to make it feel.

i like a reliasm in cinema alot but when watching a comic book film i tend to suspend my disbelief. super hero films of this kind are suposed to be over the top.
