Did we need to make this a separate thread? There's already a thread for DARK KNIGHT discussion.
Zealot said:5) The ugly face of Harvey Dent doesn't have an eye lid. I don't really know what exactly happens to an eye if someone can't blink, but I doubt he can have just walk around as normal. And the pain must be unbearable.
QBComics said:I'd hate to be a downer, but I found another plot hole:
When Joker is blowing up the hospital dressed as a nurse, why does the bus wait. Could they not clearly see he was dissapointed in the explosion and was beating a detanator? Do they wait because they don't know it's Joker? Then why does no one call to him to get on the bus?
Sorry. Had to get it out...
Deckard said:Because the Joker's goons already took over the bus and were waiting for him...
Deckard said:Because the Joker's goons already took over the bus and were waiting for him... it's also one of the Joker's goons that grabs Mike Engle by the arm and pulls him into the bus.
Maybe your thinking too hard about what's wrong with it instead of enjoying it?
TheMutt92 said:Well to start things off, these aren't really mistakes or irregularities for the most part, they are just either things you did not understand or things that were maybe not as clear as they should have been...
TheMutt92 said:This scene is actually important for several reasons:
- reestablishes the character of Batman, and answers the question of 'what happened to Scarecrow?'
- establishes the fact that Batman's suit is no longer as helpful - introduces the idea of copycats, furthering the idea that Gotham may not need Batman
TheMutt92 said:Batman starts cutting through the car in order to nab Scarecrow. And when he lands on the van, he crushes the roof due in part to both his weight (as a physically fit man and with all that armor on) and the long fall.
TheMutt92 said:Batman's armor protected them.
TheMutt92 said:Gordon mentions other hospitals, but Gotham General was the most important.
TheMutt92 said:Its a character based off from a comic book. And to have done it realisticlly might've guaranteed an R-rating.
TheMutt92 said:The hostages were the people from the bus Joker jumped on after the hospital scene.
TheMutt92 said:Then again, can you really clearly see Joker's face?
TheMutt92 said:To sum it all up, its all nit-picking that dosn't matter, and for me dosn't take anything away from the film itself.
Zealot said:Ok, you are right, but I still think they could have done it more "elegantly". And besides, who cares what happened at Scarecrow? Last I remember he was locked in Arkham, why bring it back just for 5 minutes of the movie?
Zealot said:I think that they mention at several points in the movie and its prequel that Batman's armor is actually rather light. So he brakes a van, but doesn't brake a single bone?...Once again, I don't buy this. I understand that the armor is good against bullets and knives and such, but falls? Really, even if Rachel landed on Batman, she would still had to broke at least SOMETHING. Remember that Batman is human too.
Zealot said:I still think that Joker pulled it off too easily.
Zealot said:I don't remember that movie explains this anywhere.
Niteshade007 said:You bring up a good point, and obviously they just didn't want to put Rachel in a cast for the most of the movie. Batman's armor is really the only explanation anyone can give, and it isn't exactly a great one.
Katarn07 said:All these other flaws you point out are either NOT flaws (you're not paying enough attention) or you need to remember while much more realistic than other comic book movies, it's still a comic book movie. Suspend some disbelief, especially when it comes to Two-Face. That was an amazing look for the character and true to the comics while still adding a bit more realism to him (asymmetrical split face, burnt suit instead of the two-tone suit in the comics/Batman Forever).
Zealot said:And I'm still waiting for someone to answer my question about the ferries. Where were those people going? Were they evacuating the ENTIRE freakin city because Joker made some ridiculous threat?
oki9Sedo said:I saw the film for the second time this Christmas.
I have to say, I think its really, really good. The best film of the summer. Everything about it is top notch.
All this nitpicking is precisely that. Nitpicking. It really stands up very well.
That's not a mistake. Two-Face first flips for Maroni, but Maroni gets off. So Two-Face flips for Maroni's driver, which enables him to kill the driver as a way of getting a second chance at Maroni.Forbidden Eye said:Here's another noticeable mistake I caught since the first viewing(but ignored it simply because there were a lot of questions I had), when Two Face flips the coin, he states he only shoots people if the coin is on the burnt side, so why does he shoot the driver?(or even more importantly, whatever happens to the guy he was talking to?)

Forbidden Eye said:I get that, but he only kills people if he flips the coin on the burnt side. For Maroni's driver, he flipped the same side he did for Maroni, yet he still shot Maroni's driver.
