I think it would be nice if ever once in a while throughout the movie you woudl stick one of the mics near the TV for a little bit like every time no one at all is talking.

And later, the cops took him into custody. No access to whatever antidote he might have. You are STRETCHING, my friend. These arguments, going round in circles, they don't compute. Let...it...go.

Batman does NOT bend the barrel of the shotgun with his bare hand! He uses the pneumatic mangling device. The device is a high pressurized cutting device. He uses this same device to cut through the van. It does NOT bend the shotgun, it CUTS it, giving the illusion that the BATMAN is strong enough to bend it. There is an artilce on this device in one of the previous Entertainment Weekly magazines.

Crane would have not seen "monster" Bat-Man (although he did have some frame of mind to control his own fears over his own hallucination) If that were the case, Kristopher, that would have been a point in Batman Begins.

Where do I get "years"? I stand corrected. Looking through cast & crew interviews, the timeline between films is roughly six months. In doing some quick work on finding that answer- my heart sank a little when I found out another. How did Alfred <em>and Bruce Wayne and Fox </em> set all of 'Batman's shit up'? It's explained in the novelization of <em> Gotham Knights</em>, and I'll apply it here since it makes sense: The damage caused by the riots/Ghul's plan had left various buildings damaged. This included the Wayne Tower and the building that has Wayne's penthouse apartment. Hence during "repairs", modifications were done. This -and the six month timeline- would also explain why Wayne Manor wasn't entirely rebuilt yet. The city rebuilding (or remodification) came first. So why does it bug me a tad? Because those answers are given in/connected to the animated tie-in spinoff prequel. If that's considered canon, then Batman has already faced Killer Croc and Deadshot, as well came close to re-capturing Scarecrow :( That’s even worse, Kristopher- because if it was a few months, Scarecrow would still be a bit more nuts than he was- and that still doesn’t hide the fact that Scarecrow was (thought to be) the last Arkham escapee from Begins.

Other than that, it was fun, especially your running joke about Alfred having to set all of Batman's shit up. Thank God SOMEBODY did a commentary for this movie:)

There is nothing -- NOTHING subtle about the dialogue I'm talking about. Unless you have some other definition of subtle. Also, The Dark Knight is not "a few years" after the event. A few months at best, but hardly a few years. I'd say it's maybe a month later. COuldn’t disagree more? There is nothing — NOTHING subtle about the dialogue I’m talking about.
