    One thing I love about Batman 2022 is his relationship to the cops. In most Batman stories, he eventually gets in the cops good graces, and you sort of suspend your disbelief about it. Batman’s a good guy, the cops are usually good guys, makes sense for them to team up. But in ‘22, as soon as he enters the first crime scene you’re hit with the obvious absurdity that the police allow this costumed maniac to help them solve cases.

Gotham is full of bad or crooked cops, so not only is this third party who could rat them out appears, but he would embarass them as not just crooked but useless without him to the public. Next time they are putting 6 warning shots in the skull of a minority people be heckling them saying Batman must be handling all the real crimes.

      I love how many scenes there are in the movie where background extras are visibly weirded out by Batman's appearance. You can spot the forensic people doing double takes and during the civilian rescue scene at the end a bunch of the crowd are nudging each other and pointing at him.
      My favorite is the main forensic guy trying to walk around Mitchell's corpse and having to stop because there's a weirdo in a costume standing in his way. "Excuse me" lol

    Something I love about Phantasm is how Bruce putting on the Batman cowl for the first time isn't framed as triumphant. It's Bruce after he's lost every chance he had at living a "normal" life. This isn't a man becoming a hero. It's a man at his lowest point.

      Not to mention it was the birth of the "Bat glare", used for years after to strike fear into the hearts of criminals everywhere. Little does anyone know it was born from such a low point in someone's life. Makes you wonder what it says about the criminals who see it and feel fear.

      Yeah, that whole movie | two-parter episode is basically a tragedy, especially how we know both Bruce and Andrea end up and with them being equally alone in the end. After all, the last lines of the movie are from the random guy on the cruise ship who stumbles out on deck, sees Andrea looking out at sea, apologizes, and asks if she wants to be alone for her reply to be that she already is. Hell, this is the very same movie where we hear Bruce admit, maybe for the first and only time aloud, that he never expected to be happy to his parents' grave as he's begging for their forgiveness to stop being Batman.

    I'm low-key offended that you didn't mention how good Cillian Murphy is as Jonathan Crane/Scarecrow.
    I really wanted him to be the main villain of Dark Knight Rises. He was right there to the point that he had a cameo (which is my favorite scene of the movie). It would even explain why Batman needs to come out of retirement. He knows what Scarecrow is capable of doing so he's the one able to save Gotham from him. Or maybe I just wanted more screen time for Cillian Murphy.

      Scarecrow is such a cool concept for a Batman villain. He's just like Bruce in the sense that he uses his childhood fear to strike terror into the hearts of his enemies, in the right hands this could create such a cool dynamic between the hero and the villain. Yet he's almost exlusively used as a means to have the fear toxin in the show/movie and not much else.

      there's also the reality that a woman willing to put her real life on hold to be a superhero isn't exactly going to be the first one to "shit where she eats" so to speak -- sleeping with someone who is practically her boss isn't a great idea. to have her do it anyway is to make the entire character seem, you know, like a dumb emotional girl who can't trust her own instincts, not a self-assured grown woman.

    I know people clowned on it a lot prior to its release but one of the most fascinating aspects of Pattinson’s Batman is that he was unironically inspired by Kurt Cobain, and that Reeves and Pattinson genuinely meant it. The song they chose for the score perfectly reflects Batman’s sense of isolation and self inflicted pain, and there’s a much realer, more disturbing and tragic element of knowing what happened to Kurt and seeing how little value Bruce places on his own life, how hopeless he seems. It helps his arc of rekindling hope all the more impactful because you know he still carries that pain and may never fully heal, that he might relapse, but it gives you hope. It might be the one time I’ve seen a piece of popular media utilize Nirvana because it genuinely understood the message instead of using it because it was popular and a shorthand for “edginess and looking cool”

    Something I truly love about The Batman is just how much context it gives aspects of Batman that are typically just handwaved as being stuff Batman does.
    Him staring silently is not only due to his personality but also an important aspect of his function as a detective, he's ensuring that his lenses can get as many details as possible and it gives him that feel of being a nocturnal predator. He's not doing it because "he's Batman" he's doing it because it makes perfect sense for him to do so.

    • @Gearhead966
      @Gearhead966 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +88

      In conjunction with this, one of my favorite aspects of this movie is showing Bruce Wayne slowly gaining the skills we’re used to Batman having. To the point that once he attains them, the movie stops making note of them.
      One example is his tracking in stealth. At the start of the movie we have a whole ass sequence of him stalking Celina and learning everything about her. We see exactly how he learns to track people and surprise them with the classic appearing from the darkness act.
      By the time we get to the third act of the movie, Batman just starts appearing places with no explanation or establishing scenes. Because at this point, the movie expects to remember and understand Batman’s process.
      Another aspect is Bruce learning to use his brains over his brawn. There are a total of 3 scenes in this movie where Bruce approaches Falcones Nightclub. First as Batman, where he tries to brute force his way in and fails. The second when he shows up as Bruce Wayne and talks his way into speaking to Falcon. And the third one where he sneaks in disguised as a worker and doesn’t put his Batman suit on until he’s properly into the complex.
      Seeing these behind the scenes moments makes it perfectly natural when Batman starts showing up in places he shouldn’t, because we’ve already seen how his experiences of failure in this movie have made him a better Batman. I think it’s amazing that this movie gives substance to the Batman gimmicks by giving us a peak into what Batman is like before he figures them out.

    Robert Pattinson does not get enough credit for his acting job as Batman. He completely becomes the character almost as much as Colin Ferrel does with the penguin. It’s just Colin’s character has less screen time so it stands out more I feel. His acting with just body movement and especially just his eyes is insane. Robert Pattinson is one of the best actors of this generation that no one realizes yet. He’s truly a chameleon especially if you’ve seen his other movies. I have full 100% faith we will pull off the “playboy” Bruce persona and still keep his Batman that grungy and grounded

    So glad Cosmonaut included that Batman Beyond scene at 28:23. It's such a brief but effective scene, and a believable reason why Batman would finally hang up the cowl.

    • @beancheesedip8337
      @beancheesedip8337 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yeah, Batman giving up the cowl should be such a dramatic moment for him. Batman Beyond's explanation is perfect. It wasn't just that he physically couldn't do it anymore, he was put into such a bad situation purely because his body could no longer take it that he had to resort to the *one* thing he's hated most to save himself. That's how you end Batman's career. He doesn't stop cuz he's just over it, he gives up because him continuing is more of a detriment to everyone else than it is a help.

    I honestly never realized Jokers pride as being central to his character, but looking back, it totally is. One of the best portrayals of it is in Batman Beyond Return of the Joker. When Terry starts making fun of him, Joker just starts losing it. In Jokers eyes, its not Batman dropping down to the level of petty insults, its just some punk kid basically cosplaying. He can't stand that and he gets so worked up that he loses control, playing into Terry's plan.

    I always loved how The Batman shows how a guy like the Riddler could gain a following of goons and its by far the scariest portrayal of a Batman Villain gang we've had so far. They're portrayed less as a generic group of thrugs who happen to follow a badguy but more as a equally as unhinged, fringe group of disassociated people and its eerily evocative of how real life mass killers have had openly warned people on the internet and even gotten support before doing do. If you saw the scene in the movie with all the comments about the viewers giving suggestions of what guns and stuff to bring to the ending which was essentially a mass shooting then you'd know just how intense this movie feels.
    I used to really dislike how so much Batman media has the villains gangs basically just be generic criminals with maybe a clown mask or something but this movie truly makes the group Riddler has feel entirely unique

      That's also why I loved the finale of Joker. I always wondered how these villains would get support from so many goons, but Joker inspiring an uprising of mentally unhinged freaks by murdering a man on live TV was epic. He inspired people in the opposite way that Batman does. Seeing him stand on top of that cop car with fire all around him, drawing a smile on his face in blood while people in clown masks cheer him on is one of the most striking visuals in any comic book film imo

It's wildly impressive how despite the comedic tone it oozes so much understanding of Bruce's psychology and has a lot of in-jokes to the character's history that balance out the more mainstream humor with a lot of validation for people who know the Batman lore. That and Will Arnett is genuinely a great Batman vocally. I wouldn't be opposed to seeing him in something more tonally in line with something like a Batman animated series or direct to video film outside the LEGO version

    Something I really enjoyed about Battinson is that Bruce Wayne felt like the disguise whenever he wasn't in his Batman suit. Like Batman was the true identity and Bruce Wayne was just a way Batman got around in the public without drawing attention.

      But it’s clear that he hates this disguise, he was only Bruce in public for two times throughout the entire film, the mayors funeral he was forced to show up, and going to see Falcone he was completely lost and didn’t even care about anything.

      The young Bruce is just filled with so much anger that he identifies as vengeance, he hates being Bruce he just wants to be the bat, but by the end of the movie he grows out of it so I’m sure the next film we will see a more confident Bruce actually taking care of Wayne enterprise

      Yeah back in the day when I was still finding it absolute cringe when friends and acquaintances alike who were like obsessed with this movie, constantly repeating Joker quotes like these all the damn time and I was always just like ..... but all he ever does in this movie is make plans and then executing them. He plans an elaborate heist that he alone ends up walking away with all the money, he fakes his death just to be planted in the house of that one guy who put a bounty on him just to monologue and then kill him, he blows a fucking hospital in broad day light all while turning Harvey to the dark side and keeping the cops and Batman occupied with forcing the public to kill that one who was gonna expose Batman's identity, he intercepts a police convoy - purposely gets caught and also planned a getaway with a bomb planted in the stomach of guy of a guy who works for him and who also got arrested- all while he kidnapped Harvey and Rachel and had them set-up with explosives. Joker should seriously consider being a DM sometime, I think he'd be fantastic at it.

    An underrated detail I love about the opening scene of The Batman is with the guy in the scary looking ghost mask. When he’s robbing the convenience store, the light shows how he’s the scariest guy in the room. But when he runs out and looks up to see the bat signal, most of the light around his mask disappears as he becomes completely overcome by fear. That shot where he’s just standing totally frozen and scared conveys fear better than anything I’ve ever seen in a comic book movie.

    I’ll never forget the day when my family was on vacation in Washington DC. We were at the Smithsonian and saw a big banner for The Dark Knight playing in the museum’s IMAX theater. We begged our parents to let us go, but my mom was adamantly against it because she thought the Joker was too creepy. Mind you, I was the youngest kid there of four, and I was 13. So we missed out on our chance. A few months later, my brother came home with the DVD and we watched it. My mom walked in halfway through and was so invested in whatever the scene was that she made us start over from the beginning. By the end, she said “that was a really good movie.” I threw my hands up and said “and we could have seen it in IMAX.” Biggest L my parents ever gifted me.

    They called him Ra's instead of Raysh because that's more accurate to Arabic. "Ras" is the word for "head" and "ghul" is an Arabic word that roughly translates to ghoul/ghost/demon, and is the origin of the English word "ghoul." So Ra's al-Ghul roughly translates to "Head of the ghoul" or "Head of the demon." I'm Arabic and I honestly really appreciate that Nolan made this change.

    I think the problem with Nolan is that he is more interested in storytelling than in telling stories. He is a film geek who loves to experiment with techniques to create original scenes and many of them are great, but he feels less interested in using those scenes to say something.

      Nolan casts very broad strokes in his storytelling for sure. He’s a film geek that latched onto the technical aspect of filmmaking whereas someone like Tarantino is much more wrapped up in character portrayals and dialogue. It shows in their films. It’s pretty rare for a director to just have the full package of skill, but lacking skill in one thing and excelling in something else is often what gives directors their unique style and vision.

      The film lays the seeds for where his Bruce Wayne will go in the future. It's all intentional. The Mayor-elect says "your family has a history of philanthropy but you aren't doing anything" Bruce in this film is obsessed with being Batman. There's no separation. His hair is long and unkempt, he's barely sleeping, his eyes are bloodshot. He doesn't even care about his own company/family legacy. Even when he goes to the funeral, he's in detective mode. He's Batman 100% of the time. In the sequel he'll probably start to take an active role in providing funds to improve the city, as well as establish more of a public persona that's separate from who he really is.

      Yeah. Super disappointed he didn’t give Hardy any credit for his Bane when he had a clear impact on pop culture at the time simply because he was so awesome.

    The Dark Knight's use of the wrist blades is THE definitive example of Chekhove's Gun.

      ​@@jonesjavontaeChekhov's Gun was an example used by Chekhov several times in his letters to discuss efficient use of narrative space and avoid unnecessary story elements that don't contribute to a story. The example being, if you have a loaded gun in the first act, it must go off in the second or third act. Over time this has evolved in culture to also refer to an element set up early in a story that pays off later. Chekhov's Gun is more of a thought experiment to demonstrate a concept than a definitive example; he did use such a set-up in one of his plays, Uncle Vanya, but have 99% of people ever even heard of it? Hardly definitive. I'd also guess that a majority of people who use the phrase Chekhov's Gun don't know who Anton Chekhov is in the first place, in the same way that people refer to Murphy's Law or Godwin's Law.
      I also don't think Batman's wrist blades are the definitive example either, though, but at the very least they are a relatively iconic example of the concept used in an actual story that people have heard of, lol.

    One more thing I love about RobBat's Batman is how you see him come to terms with the fact that being a billionaire recluse has made him miss important details too.
    The fact that he didn't know what a tucker is, (because he's a lil rich boy and why would he?), means that he completely missed the Riddler's last clue with the map of Gotham under the carpet. Like he had to be told by a police officer who happened to be there, and he was pretty dismissive of police officers other than Gordon in the movie too. Like, just 👌👌👌👌
    My favourite Batman ❤❤

    I actually like the Begins portion where Bruce considers killing Chill. He's 19-21 at the time, just an angry misplaced kid, and Rachel treats him like the stupid kid he is being. She tells him to look past his own pain, because he's had a mansion and a butler to sulk with for a decade, and the kids on the mob-run streets just have to accept their troubles and live around them any way that they can with very little hope, comfort or change involved. This opens his eyes to the point of a confrontation with Falcone where he looks around and sees just how much of the city and therefore the average Gotham city resident is under the boots of these people. He also realizes that not only did Joe Chill's death not give him any peace, but also that it likely facilitated further suffering in the grand scheme of things. Basically forces him to grow up and causes him to go on a journey of self-discovery for another decade where he realizes his life's mission and returns to gotham reborn in both a legal and metaphorical sense, the Bruce wayne we know and love. The conversation they have about vengeance vs justice is an important one for Bruce's story as it cuts right to the fundamental difference between him and Ras and why he rejects that cause. The only thing I don't like is that Holmes isn't the strongest actress and it would have been nice if Gyllenhaal would have gotten the role sooner. But otherwise I agree with nearly everything else in the video, great stuff!

      I'd argue showing that Bruce is just as capable of "thinking" to use a gun on Chill makes the fact that he never does again a lot stronger. Begins does overdo having Bruce getting lectured by someone about his morals a lot but showing how much he disappointed himself and Racheal for having those dark thoughts made him very human.

      I feel like it’s just that it’s Katie Holmes telling him to not kill that makes it not work for me. I think if it was Maggie, she would’ve delivered the lines better and it would’ve felt more serious. With Katie idk it came across as a little cheesy or a little over the top given the subject matter. It’s like a parent punishing their teenage kid. Doesn’t work imo.

    I’m glad I’m not alone in the euphoria I felt when I realized that the Rachel death scene in the dark Knight wasn’t the climax. I thought the exact same thing the first time I saw it, and I felt the exact same way. This is the first movie that made me feel that way (wanting more so badly that I actually got euphoric when i realized there WAS more.) despite already being nearly 2 hours into the movie at that point. It’s a very rare thing for a movie to pull off
