History WebVideo / Badman

''Badman'' is a parody of ''Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy'' produced by Website/CollegeHumor and Front Page Films.

** Batman believes that Two-Face and Harvey Dent are two different people who disappear and reappear whenever Two-Face turns his head.

* BatmanGrabsAGun: Parodied in ''Batman vs the Penguin'', where he ''does'' use guns but thinks everyone he kills is just sleeping.

* NoObjectPermanence: Batman believes that Two-Face and Harvey Dent are two different people who disappear and reappear whenever Two-Face turns his head.
** Later, Commissioner Gordon makes fun of Superman's ClarkKenting by taking off his glasses - Batman immediately falls for it.

* TheyJustDontGetIt: Many of the sketches involve Batman not understanding something, from Harvey being Two-Face, riddle having more than one meaning, to even the concept of death.

** In "Batman Meets the Riddler," the Riddler offers a challenge: "If you ''aim'' to give us a ''shot'', we'll ''riddle'' you. What are we?" Batman can't figure it out, despite Riddler -- and Rachel, who he's taken hostage -- repeatedly giving him incredible obvious hints.

* {{Corpsing}}: In the final sketch where they're now employed at Website/CollegeHumor, Gordon ''and'' Batman are visibly restraining his incredulous laughter when Batman uses a VerbalBackspace to claim that ''Series/{{Alf}}'' made his sandwich for him.

* '''IdiotHero''': To the point that even his ''allies'' agree with the villains.

* JackBauerInterrogationTechnique: Parodied in "Batman Interrogation".

--->'''Batman:''' ''Two-Face''! What did you do with Harvey Face and Scary-Face?!

--->'''Batman:''' ''Two-Face''! What did you do with Harvey Dent and Scary-Face?!

--->'''Batman''': ''Two-Face''! What did you do with Harvey Dent and Scary-Face?!

** With the bomb's timer ticking, batman feels like he should get another kiss from Catwoman because "for a last kiss on earth, it was like a 7."

** After his disappearing act fails and Gordon spots him huddling around a corner, Batman simply claims he "found some evidence".

** Batman also thinks his parents aren't dead -- they're on a special, happy farm where they make buttermilk, romp, play, and send him emails from a hammock made of dreams.

* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: An extreme example, to say Batman has irrational fears is an understatement. He's terrified of Girl Scouts, sleeveless T-shirts, Roomba, ukuleles, fluorescent light bulbs, jingling keys, [=ATMs=], intimacy, Creator/ChristopherMcDonald, the ''Series/{{Double Dare|1986}}'' TV show, Invisalign braces, a bag of Sun Chips, Babe Ruth's tiny legs, and baths.

* AbsurdPhobia: After Scarecrow hits Batman with his trademark fear gas, we discover that the Caped Crusader's phobias include sleeveless T-shirts, Girl Scouts, baths, jingling keys, [[Series/DoubleDare1986 Double Dare]], Invisalign braces, Roombas, and actor Creator/ChristopherMcDonald (who appears AsHimself for a brief cameo).

** Pretty much the entire theme of the short "Batman Can't Stop Thinking About Sex."

* BadBadActing
* BornLucky: Sometimes the reason Batman manages to take down his foes. The Riddler's bullets ricocheted off of Batman's armor back into his own torso while Batman was completely off guard.

* ThouShaltNotKill: Parodied to the point of [[CrossesTheLineTwice grossout humor]] in "Batman vs. the Penguin". Batman ''thinks'' he adheres to this rule and the henchman he kills are asleep... which he states after taking a look at one that has a ''Batarang in his face''.

* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: Batman guesses incorrectly that the answer to the Riddler's riddle ("If you aim to give us a shot, we'll riddle you.") is "helicopter". When he fails to guess several more times (despite the answer being telegraphed to him by the Riddler and Rachel), he calls up Lucious Fox to help him, who asks if the answer is "helicopter".

!!This series of web videos contains examples of:

* AllMenArePerverts: Pretty much the entire theme of the short "Batman Can't Stop Thinking About Sex."

--> '''Two-face''' This is the guy that beat the Joker?
--> '''Gordon''' Yeah, I don't know how he did it.
--> '''Batman''' I used my SKILLS, that I learned in the mountain!

* ComicallyMissingThePoint: The Batman tends to do this a lot. Perhaps the biggest example is the BloodierAndGorier "Batman vs. the Penguin", where Commissioner Gordon unsuccessfully tries to make Batman realize that what he's doing is killing the Penguin and his minions in a parody of his [[ThouShaltNotKill one rule]].

---> '''Talia''' Do you understand what's happening right now? A bomb is about to blow up Gotham, and I've stabbed you.
---> '''Batman''' I stabbed you first.

--> '''Penguin''' (''To Gordon'') Are you kidding me!? Are you kidding!? ''I'm'' the one you're after!?
* '''IdiotHero'''

** With the bomb's timer ticking, batman feels like he should get another kiss from Catwoman because 'for a last kiss on earth, it was like a 7'.
*** A rare case for somebody other than Batman - Gordon pulls out a gun to threaten Batman for stalling, claiming that he'll blow Batman's brains out if he doesn't fly the bomb away.

*** Batman also thinks his parents aren't dead - they're on a special, happy farm where they make buttermilk, romp, play, and send him emails from a hammock made of dreams.
---->'''Batman''' I don't understand what you find hard to believe about any of that. It's a very plausible situation. Old rich people go to farms.
** After his disappearing act fails and Gordon spots him huddling around a corner, Batman simply claims he 'found some evidence'.
** Batman thinks a 50-50 chance requires 50 coins, then 50 more, and his computer needs to analyze the results - with science.
** After working over the wrong clown in a detainment room, Batman claims he partly knew it wasn't the Joker but it was embarrassing to stop so he just kind of 'owned it'.
--->'''Batman''' I gave you beating not that you deserved, but the one you needed. Sorry champ. You want one of my telescopes?

* PrecisionFStrike: "[[Creator/JohnMalkovich Where were the other drugs going, fuckface?]]"

-->'''Batman''' You're saying... If I go to sleep... I die!

** In "Batman Meets the Riddler," the Riddler offers a challenge: "If you ''aim'' to give us a ''shot'', we'll ''riddle'' you. What are we?" Batman can't figure it out, despite Riddler--and Rachel, who he's taken hostage--repeatedly giving him incredible obvious hints.
--> '''Lucius''' Batman...what's going on?
--> '''Batman''' Yeah, call it off. I'm pretty sure it was helicopter. The guy just didn't want to admit I got it so fast.
