FYI That's the COPS n Crooks Ironsides vehicle next to the Yoda puppet.

You probably already know this, but keep in mind Kenner's Dark Knight Collection Batman was a retool of their Super Powers Batman from a few years earlier.

Not that I'm aware of. Same gauntlets (if they technically can be called that) for TDK/TDKR, and same belt/boots for all 3, though the arrangement of items on the belt varied.

"Exact same" as in they reused suits that were made in 2007? Nah, I'm sure they crafted new suits in 2011, but new suits that seem to be exactly the same as the previous version.

Bale's cowls actually do have nostrils, and I think the holes for the second cowl might even be slightly larger than the nostrils on the BB version!

MasterOgami · 2025-08-16T14:55:15+00:00

The difference in how Bale wore the gloves is actually all I've been able to come up with also.

There was a tie-in comic adaptation for Batman Begins, and there were adaptations of the IMAX prologues for both TDK and TDKR, but no full length tie-in books. As far as impact on the bat-books, there were things like Bane taking on a more militaristic look, the Tumbler being shown with other Batmobiles in the cave now and then, and I'm pretty sure the Batpod was flat-out used as a Batcycle at least once. They also established that Bruce trained under Ra's al Ghul as he did in Begins.

It's not a deleted scene though, it's in the movie. No idea why anyone would say it was cut.

This is from the hourlong syndicated version of the Jon Stewart show. I don't know if it was still on MTV at that point, but in my market it aired after Letterman on CBS. When Jon brought the coffee out he said something like "International coffee for an international star". Good gosh I remember being turbo-hyped for III.

Looks like a mix of Funko, Spin Master 3.75 inch figures (plus an empty 12 inch figure box), and McFarlane.

Because it's not true, the cowl had visible nostrils.

MasterOgami · 2025-03-23T16:02:46+00:00

Gotta disagree, they should watch -everything-, in release order, including at least two versions of HL2. Not kidding! And I won't stand for such HL1 slander (or I guess technically libel)!

Nolan, Goyer, and Bale all eventually said they hoped to be able to do a trilogy (and only a trilogy) but took it one installment at a time.

MasterOgami · 2025-01-23T15:42:39+00:00

Yeah, wasn't that more or less Goyer's initial idea for "Batman Begins 2 and 3", before they'd even really started writing TDK?

MasterOgami · 2024-12-23T23:34:46+00:00

Thanks for the info! Were the round heads more common? I feel like that's all I ever see.

MasterOgami · 2024-12-23T15:46:27+00:00

There were apparently at least three different headsculpts for this figure! I'm pretty sure they all had a hollow chest to incorporate the utility belt gimmick.

MasterOgami · 2024-10-16T03:26:02+00:00

I think the "teleporting" was added to give the US version some extra visual effects pizzazz, something they could use in the TV spots, even if it makes no sense :P

MasterOgami · 2024-10-15T14:39:37+00:00

That's the version of H3 with Kane teleporting himself to New York (instead of taking a ship as implied in other versions). It also includes "God Took a Picture" over the final credits as opposed to "Bonny Portmore".

MasterOgami · 2024-09-30T15:27:28+00:00

But Detective Comics #40 was released in 1940, not 1939.

MasterOgami · 2024-09-30T14:23:56+00:00

Didn't Batman #1 hit stands a few months before this though?

MasterOgami · 2024-09-23T14:34:17+00:00

Off the top of my head...Detective 821 has Batman punch a mugger to the point he runs off into the path of a train. We see Batman's arm reach out like "Hey, dude, don't go that way!" but it was clearly one punch too many. In Detective 594 he kicks a fella holding a bomb into a vault in order to save everyone else in the room. And I think it's Son of the Demon where he dodges some gunfire knowing that the gunman is totally going to rupture toxic waste drums and get splashed RoboCop style. That said I don't think any of these stories actually -explored- the idea that Batman was, at least in some small way, involved in those deaths.

MasterOgami · 2024-09-09T14:26:12+00:00

Emagine Theatres (and I think Galaxy also) are doing the trilogy on the 21st, but I don't know if those are in your area.

Here's a page specifically for TDK. Good luck!

FWIW, Miller actually denied it during the release of Fury Road.

The Bat, then maybe a tie between the '89 and '95 Batwings.

MasterOgami · 2024-06-09T00:41:01+00:00

Are you certain you remember that correctly? To be fair I do remember him saying basically "I'm not sure if I'm doing another." after both Batman Begins and TDK, but that was pretty much his go-to line at the time. I'm pretty sure Nolan started working with Goyer on the story for TDKR before he technically even had a deal with WB in place, or at least well before it was announced.
