I just watched Dark Knight and DKR, gotta disagree with whoever said DKR. League of Shadows were the best villains of the trilogy. DKR made Batman Begins even better as one complete story. Dark Knight was good, but the weakest in the trilogy IMO. It could have been a standalone film, and while Joker is an awesome villain, he wasn't as developed or focused on as much as I would've liked him to be.
Two different League of Shadows, though. Bane controlled a splinter organization. Plus the Joker didn't factor into TDKR because Ledger was dead at that point. We probably would have had a very different TDKR if not for that that. And, in general, both Ras and Bane had very convoluted, silly character motivations. The Joker's was refreshingly straightforward:
(Granted, aspects of his motivation *were* similar to both Ras and Bane, who also sought to have the city turn on itself.)
Out of the trilogy, TDK was clearly the best. And, while there's some debate as to whether Ledger would have won an Oscar had he lived, he gave a nearly universally acclaimed performance.
