* It would seem at first glance that much of why Peyton was tortured and left for dead, was because he didn't know what Durant wanted. However this troper remembers an earlier scene where he was in the same room with Julie who was talking about the Memorandum out loud. He knew exactly what Durant was talking about, [[HeroicSacrifice he was only trying to protect Julie.]]
* Darkman never engages more than one person in hand-to-hand combat. This makes sense, because other than being freakishly strong, Peyton is only a scientist with no training. Fighting multiple opponents, who can combine their strength, will render his only advantage moot.

!!FridgeLogic:
* Do all the guys that Darkman impersonates have the same height?
** ...And eye color? Same kind of teeth as he does? And where does he get the hair? Does he rob wig stores?
** It's hard to see unless you're watching in hi-def, but Darkman always has blue eyes, even when he's impersonating someone. It's easiest to tell when he's impersonating Durant, because Larry Drake's eyes are green in that scene.
** The novelization mentions that yes, he orders a ''lot'' of wigs, contact lenses, and other things to perfect his disguises.
*** In the sequels, the hair comes part of the mask ready-made.

However this troper remembers an earlier scene where he was in the same room with Julie who was is talking about when asked about the Memorandum out loud. He knew exactly Belisarius Memorandum, and you might expect that he doesn't, since that's Julie's thing. But Julie had mentioned it during their brief period of conversation the night before, and the memorandum is in his office, so he apparently did know what Durant it was talking about, and was [[HeroicSacrifice he was only trying to protect Julie.]]
* Darkman never engages more than one person The FatBastard Pauly usually has some sort of sauce in hand-to-hand combat. This makes sense, because other than being freakishly strong, Peyton is only a scientist with no training. Fighting multiple opponents, who can combine their strength, will render the corner of his only advantage moot.
