The Dark Knight is a loose adaptation of the graphic novels, Batman: The Long Halloween and Batman: The Killing Joke. The director keeps the same major theme of Batman the only thing that they changed dramatically was how many characters, as in villains, were present per movie. They also added in a lot of different elements such as the different mob bosses and venturing to China. I believe that this film is a mixture of a transposition and an analogy. It illustrates to the best of its ability the intentions of the text but they change and add a lot of different scenes and elements within to the film.
Though they somewhat stay true to the graphic novels, I believe that the director of The Dark Knight, Batman Begins, and the upcoming The Dark Knight Rises separated the characters into the different movies so that our Protagonist along with viewers wouldn't get completely lost in the mayhem that is Gotham City.
