Disinhibitation and Desensitisation

Just watched Batman: The Dark Knight this afternoon. I felt like I was watching a tamer Saw movie. Nowadays, even movies adapted from comics contains gore and violence. Killings, bombings, tortures in almost every action movies.

Do we really want this? Are audience now asking for more? Have we been disinhibited and desensitised? What will the effects on our children? Do parents still bring their children to all movies without considering the violent content?
