COMMENT and tell us which movie from the trilogy is your favorite!
1. In Batman Begins, the League of Shadows' plan makes no sense! They wanted to poison Gotham's water supply with the fear toxin and then vaporize the water so everyone is exposed to the toxin.
They had hoped that everyone would freak out and Gotham would fall.
Except it doesn't work because the League had poisoned the water weeks earlier! For it to work at that exact moment, no one could have vaporized water. That doesn't work because people vaporize water constantly!
You vaporize water when you make coffee, when you take a hot shower or when you use the dishwasher. Damn, the League is terrible at making evil plans!
2. Batman decided to go on the monorail to stop Ra's al Ghul for no reason. The emitter is on the monorail and Ra's decides to transport it to Wayne Towers, right by the central water supply.
Batman's on the monorail even though he already told Commissioner Gordon to shoot the monorail supports so that it stops the monorail from going to Wayne Towers!
Why didn't Ra's just start at Wayne Towers to begin with?! Why didn't Batman just sit this one out?! I think they both just LOVE theatricality. SMH.
3. The Joker is a party crasher who leaves on his own? In The Dark Knight, the Joker shows up to kill Harvey Dent but Batman comes to fight them off. Batman then has to save Rachel from being thrown out the window.
Did you notice that after Batman rescues her, he never returns to the party? So is the Joker still chilling up there at the party and terrorizing the guests? We're supposed to assume he left on his own?
What villain just willingly leaves his target alone when Batman isn't there to protect him?!
4. The Joker's plan is insanely elaborate and it's surprising it worked. His plan relied on so many working parts and it just really didn't make any sense.
Such a stupid mistake that shouldn't have happened but it did!
One example is that for his plan to work, he needed a Gotham City police officer to be placed IN his cell. If the police officer wasn't so stupid, he would've been watching the Joker from outside of the cell!
But instead, he gets taken hostage and the Joker goes on a mass killing spree. Smart, Gotham City PD.
5. Remember Coleman Reese, the Wayne Enterprises accountant in The Dark Knight? How come he never revealed that Bruce Wayne was Batman?
Even after Batman saved him but was ultimately blamed for the crimes of Two-Face, Reese never said a word. In fact, he's never mentioned again!
Don't you think he would have said something after people thought he was a murderer?! Reese is one hell of a secret keeper! You want someone like Reese to keep your secrets.
6. The Dark Knight Rises had an epic opening scene that... didn't make any sense. Bane leaves one of his men in the crashing plane because the CIA expects the remains of one prisoner.
Did Bane not realize the CIA had forensics experts to test the remains?! Also, there were CLEARLY bullet holes in the plane. It shows that the plane was attacked by SOMEONE on the outside!
Uh... ok. There is just NO way the CIA will assume something weird happened. Nope.
7. How exactly did the Dark Knight... return? He was in the middle of nowhere (IN A PIT!) with a newly healed back and then he suddenly made it back to Gotham!
Excuse me, which chiropractor did he have? Also, what airline? Important questions I need answered.
8. So he successfully escaped the pit in the middle of nowhere, but how did he escape The Bat after the nuclear bomb exploded?!
Christopher Nolan explained that there was an auto-pilot on The Bat and sure, tons of characters escape explosions all the time in movies. But then why not just show it?!
It was all very confusing to see Bruce alive and well in a café.
Oh, well! Even with these plot holes, these movies are still the best!
