1 | * AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Is Batman always genuinely dumb, or does he sometimes [[ObfuscatingStupidity play it up]] to get an advantage over his villains? While there are moments where he makes some genuinely stupid mistakes, such as mistaking a party clown and a ''mime'' for the Joker within minutes of each other, his behavior when he encountered Two-Face seemed more like he was intentionally annoying Dent so that he could get the drop on him. |
2 | * CrossesTheLineTwice: The entirety of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1byycwl8qgc&list=PLAEB286C039A1A25E&index=10 Batman vs. the Penguin.]] Some highlights include: |
3 | ** When Gordon and Penguin are asking why Batman killed one of Penguin's mooks with a Batarang, Batman says that the mook isn't dead, just sleeping. |
4 | --->'''Batman''': (about the mook with a Batarang protruding from his face): Look at him. He's all tuckered out. |
5 | ** Batman doesn't realize that not only are his opponents dead, but so are his pet fish and even ''his parents''. He thinks that [[DogGotSentToAFarm they are just living in a farm upstate]], where they churn buttermilk, romp and play, and send him emails from a hammock made of dreams. So when Gordon explains that his fish (Dr. Fishy) actually died, he tries to use this to explain what happened. |
6 | --->'''Batman''': But my fish. He went to sleep, and we flushed him down the toilet. [[InsaneTrollLogic He's in the ocean right now, he's alive!]]\ |
7 | '''Penguin''': [[BrutalHonesty No, he's dead.]]\ |
8 | '''Batman''': DR. FISHY! [[BigNo NOOOOOOO!!!!!]]\ |
9 | '''Gordon''': See Batman, what you did to Dr. Fishy is what you've done to these men.\ |
10 | '''Batman''': I overfed these men?! |
11 | *** The conversation eventually leads to Batman concluding that sleeping is actually death, and vice-versa. |
12 | ** Batman's constant innuendos in ''Batman Can't Stop Thinking About Sex''. To the point where Bane is visibly disgusted. |
13 | --->'''Batman''': How was that by the way? I hadn’t showered that day, and I fight crime in a rubber suit. Really ''seals in the flavor.''\ |
14 | '''Bane''': Ugh, dude, Jesus. |
15 | * HilariousInHindsight: This series introduced hypothetical gritty versions of Penguin and Riddler. Film/TheBatman2022 has actual gritty versions of the two villains. |
