Help: Dumbest Batman Movie Moments

[TruerToTheCore]

well, maybe it is, but it just doesn't fit the way Burton's Batman is supposed to be in BR.

 

[Travesty]

The fact that the Joker, who has massive scars on his face, can go undercover as a POLICE MAN, then just run away.

Or that when a parade FULL of cops witness an assassination attempt on the Mayor, that they ALL flee like little girls. t:

That after saving Rachel, Batman would rather sit and chat than go back to where the Joker is.

Or what he was chatting about was irrelevant, as she knew where Dent was, as Bruce was the friggin one who put him in the closet.

In Batman Begins, Bruce kills a bunch of ninjas, so that he won't have to kill anyone.

Hehe, yes, this bugged me. "I wont be an executioner, yet, I'll kill everybody in the room".

 

[The Joker]

The Cops in Gotham City seem to be morons in every movie. Best example is in Batman '89. The Joker announces on TV that he will dump 20 million on the crowd at midnight.

And none of the Cops are there to arrest him at midnight, so Joker gets to bump off a few dozen citizens with his smilex gas before Batman intervenes.

True, "but the one thing he is not, is a KILLER".

That and he's dumping loads of cash onto the street.


On a side note: Burton's Batman was very much in a "fantasy world", while Nolan's is based more on "realism", and even fictional, is judged according to that.

Wrong.

Nolan's movie's are heightened realism, but are still very much a fantasy world. That was established from the get-go when they had ninjas in the Himalayas plotting to destroy cities using fear toxin and microwave emitters

then those ninjas went on to become mods in internet forums

Nice try though

Of course the movies are fictional, as its The Mother F'n Bat-Man!

Burton has leeway over his loopholes, while Nolan doesn't, cause its more "down to earth" and "realistic". Not my fault, purely Nolans.

Dude, When the Kite String Pops is an AMAZING album.

*runs over to find album, and gets his Scream of the Butterfly fix*

He might have more leeway with you. Plot holes are plot holes.

Sorry, but that's the truth.

awesome reference, and yeah, I agree--but I'm using this avvy purely because of the art (and the character who made it )

ACID BATH FTW

I understand, and agree, but presentation is what is all about. All movies have plot holes, and ALL Bat-flicks do. And Nolan's have just as much, if not more then them all.

Sorry, but its the truth.

 

[The Joker]

I understand, and agree

Excellent. Because I was about to pull out the marching Penguin army with rockets on you next, or maybe even the circus train just driving slowly thru Gotham kidnapping kids everywhere without a single Cop in sight

And Nolan's have just as much, if not more then them all.

No, definitely not more. But they have their share of them. Burton's and Schumacher's definitely have more.

But Burton's movies still rock, warts and all.

Yes they do....yes they do...

 

[TruerToTheCore]

Batman Returns and The Dark Knight are the worst in that department.

Poison Ivy wants Mr Freeze to freeze the planet, so she can let her plants over take the planet.

How can plants live and grow on a frozen planet

yeah, that team-up was doomed from the beginning.

An icon of fertility and a snowman, who is more like a dead man?!

No.

I think we all agree that B&R is full of idiotic moments. But for some reason, I love to get a group of friends together, and make drinking games out of the repetitive nonsense.

 

[Sawyer]

How Gotham is never the same between movies in the Burton/Schumacher series. It went from being a pretty cool noir/pulp world, to being full-on Burtonized, to being part Real world, part neon, to completely being Schumacher's gay wet dream.

And say what you will about Chris O'Donnell, but I think he did the best job he could have in two ****** movies.

 

[mjbull23]

Dumbest Batman moment on film - playing ice hockey with freeze's goons at the beggining of B&R. brutal.

 

[Ibn]

I have to think much harder of what I would consider the dumbest moments from the Christopher Nolan/Christian Bale Batman films.

Well then let let me help you out there partner!

A couple of the others have touched on some crazy instances but the one that sticks out to me as the most ridiculous is the interrogation scene with Batman and the Joker. The fact that Batman just sat there, with time really not on his side, and let the Joker babble on and on about **** that had NOTHING to do with the matter at hand, was ****in idiodic. I mean everytime Batman said something, he got rebutted with a mini speech. He just sat there and let the Joker actually preach to him before finally deciding to shut him up only after he's said his peace. For all this "realism" nonsense, that sure was some unrealistic, idiotic ****. I'm sorry, but if I'm Batman, and I really am concerned about the situation at hand, you are not gonna sit there and wax poetic about whatever your ****ed up ideals while time is no doubt running out on the guy I've bet my entire future on. Sorry, but if we're being "realistic", Batman should've started to cave his ****in head in the first moment he started talking about anything else than what the **** really mattered. There's was absolutely no time for that b.s.

*sighs* .......... more to come!

 

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

Overall... I think it would be much harder to overlook a plot hole or dumb moment in Batman Begins and The Dark Knight than it would in Batman or Batman Returns.

 

[metalhead_dave]

What about the third act from Batman Begins devolving into constant and repeated exposition from the Wayne operator? That final part was far more annoying and convoluted than Vicki Vale's screaming.

 

[webhead731]

OH. Help with this.

How did Two-Face kill that driver, the car flip out of control and wreck, then he survives no problem? Is he that stupid to shoot the driver of a moving vehicle? I didn't understand that. Bothers me every time.

He put his seatbelt on first, remember?
