* Watch Jim Carrey's impressive cane-twirling and how much time throughout the movie he does it. 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).

** The Riddler also gets a villainous moment of awesome in that he triggers the trapdoors ''while his mind is being fried by the unfiltered Box energy beam'', an amazing summoning of willpower just to take the good guys down with him.
* Watch Jim Carrey's impressive cane-twirling and how much time throughout the movie he does it. Clearly, and confirmed in Joel Schumacher's DVD commentary track, 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).jewels).
** Schumacher has nothing but praise for all the preparation and commitment Carrey brought to the shoot; in particular, he points out that in most of the scenes that show the Riddler near or even surrounded by explosions (i.e. the destruction of the Batcave), save one brief shot in the climax when the Box receiver is destroyed, it is not a double/stuntman onscreen as would be traditional A-list actor protocol but Carrey himself -- because no double could ''move'' the way he did.

* Robin's confrontation against Two-Face deserves a mention here on just how intense at how he channels all his rage on his family's murderer.

* 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.

Added DiffLines:

* Dr. Chase Meridian deserves some credit for being a BadassNormal with a knack for [[SherlockScan reading people]]. She's the one who deduces that Two-Face ''needs'' his coin to make decisions, which is how Batman ultimately defeats him. Dr. Meridian also shows a good deal of steel throughout the movie, whether she's working out in her office and teasing Bruce Wayne when he tries to "help" her, defiantly telling Riddler that Batman will come for her, or, after Edward's defeated, going to see him (despite his mind being totally shattered at this point) to make sure that Bruce's secret identity is safe.

** Also, the guard not even flinching when he was punched in the face is a CMOA for him.

** Early promos show there was a little more to this scene: after Riddler's failed attempt to cold-cock the guard, Two-Face '''drops the same guy with no problem'''.


Added DiffLines:

* Due to deft camera handling and the consummate acting chops of Mr. Tommy Lee Jones, every time Two-Face flips his coin, it's a slice of high theatre.

* The Riddler accomplishes what no other villain in the Burton-Schuemacher saga could; deducing Batman's secret identity.
