** The Flying Graysons aren't just murdered through sabotage in this continuity, they actively use their skills to attempt to stop Two-Face's bomb and would have succeeded if Two-Face hadn't fired at them and Dick ''does'' succeed while Bruce can only beat down Two-Face's henchmen. BadassFamily, for sure.

Erased a part that had nothing to do with the trope and fused two paragraphs that explained the same thing.


** See, all of this is why I think Jim Carrey would make an amazing Joker...
* Batman saving both Robin and his love interest at the end. After spending the film questioning his dual identity, he fully embraces it and explains to the Riddler that he's Batman ''and'' Bruce Wayne. This simple answer that the Riddler just doesn't get pushes him over the edge, as we see in the next scene.



* The final confrontation on Claw Island has two fantastic moments. Riddler flat-out tells Batman that saving both Chase and Robin is impossible. Even Bruce comes to the same conclusion, that the entire set-up is a death-trap designed so that none of them could escape. So what does Bruce do? ''He saves them both''.

* The first few minutes are pretty suspensful and feel like a serious Batman movie with some comic booky element. Awesome opening credits, Batman gears up and rolls out, introduction of the situation and potential love interest, Two-Face gives a very nice monologue...Then it ends somewhere with Two-Face's nasty side revealed and Batman jumping from the elevator.

Clearly, he dedicated quite a bit of time to get all that down (reportedly, he made quite a mess in his trailer practicing throughout the shoot and once accidentally clobbered Tommy Lee Jones in the family jewels).

Bruce's first instinctive action is to step away onto a second girder, putting distance between himself, and Chase and Robin.

* Two Face threatens to blow up everyone at the circus if Batman doesn't reveal himself. Bruce ''immediately'' stands up and shouts that he's Batman, and his identity is only saved because the shouting is lost among everyone panicking. But the fact that he is so ready to give his life to save hundreds of people without a second thought- ''that'' is why he is Batman.
