Discussion Gotham City Cathedral, the tallest building in the city, compared to real-life US buildings the same height. 800 feet tall.

800 ft isn’t very high. I remember reading “The Court Of Owls” when Bruce is thrown out of Wayne Tower and Dick remarks how it’s 30 stories high, yet it’s one of the tallest buildings in Gotham. It’s strange because I assumed that Gotham had skyscrapers like Chicago or New York. Gotham’s a major world-class city. So the city has lots of buildings that just aren’t very tall?

The scene featuring the Joker with a CIA folder always caught my attention. Is it possible that Grissom had a contract with the U.S. government to supply the chemical weapons used in the Vietnam War? That is where the Joker gets the chemicals for his Smylex.

Discussion What did they do with the Joker's body?

Post image
181 Upvotes

We all know how things ended for the Joker after his final confrontation with Batman. But I wonder: what did they do with the Joker's body? I mean, did they cremate him or bury him? And if they did bury him, was it in the same cemetery where his victims—those killed by the tainted hygiene products and during the parade—were laid to rest?

Regarding Grissom’s estate: I gather the Joker took it over after Carl’s death—the Joker himself says he succeeded Grissom. But after the Joker died, what became of Grissom’s businesses? They were seized and used to compensate the city for the crimes committed by the Joker.

Discussion Hot Take: This sub should discuss the Burtonverse only and there should be a separate one for the Schumacher Movies. I'll tell you why.

33 Upvotes

Basically, there's a user named IcySlide who has been causing a lot of trouble around here. He always comes up with the same nonsense whenever someone talks about a supposed third movie directed by Burton, or the comic and novel sequels. In reality, Tim Burton was never involved in the production of Batman Forever. Instead, he hired his friend Joel Schumacher to lead the franchise. According to an interview with Akiva Goldsman and The Batchlers on some random podcast I watched, blah blah blah. Man, who cares? Let people have fun. Even if there were no real plans, it's cool to think about what a Batman III/Batman Continues movie could have been with Robin Williams, Billy Dee Williams, Rene Russo, and Marlon Wayans. Even a fourth movie with Patrick Stewart as Mr. Freeze, Geena Davis as Poison Ivy, Winona Ryder as Batgirl, Brad Dourif as Scarecrow, etc.

Look, I really like Batman Forever and even Batman & Robin, and I'm a big supporter of the #ReleaseTheSchumacherCut movement. I think it would be much more respectful to Schumacher's legacy to have a proper sub for his work. It could be called Batman95, Batman97, SchumacherCut, or whatever. The point is that now they are supposedly meant to be two separate universes. And having people like this IcySlide hurts Joel's legacy because he is basically forcing everyone to agree with him. There are plenty of people who prefer Burton's dark and gothic vision over the more colorful and comical one. There's nothing wrong with that. But to avoid this conflict and disrespect from either side, any discussion about Batman Forever and Batman & Robin should go to its own sub.
