Are you trying to suggest Bruce Wayne playboy billionaire wouldn't go noggin hoggin?
What I am saying is it's not realistic or faithful to the source. Gotham, or New York, it matters not.

Yup. The behind the scenes of that show was a bit weird. The guy playing george had to put his foot down one time, the writers kept wanting Sherman Hemsley to call the Willises a zebra couple and Tom a honkey. This was years later after they became friends on the show . The writers would say, no keep calling him a honkey, it gets big laughs, finally Hemsley had to tell them to fuck off because if they were all friends, he wouldnt call Tom a honkey.

This is a really good movie. Set around New Orleans. A supernatural crime noir I guess ala True Detective though not the same format at all. Also Robert Deniro makes a terrific bad guy.

Seems semi-inspired by Batman Year One (though this is technically year 2). My copy is buried in my closet, but this has inspired me to re-read it this weekend.
Here’s a shot of pre-catwoman Selina Kyle. She becomes Catwoman during the story. She was a hooker I’m pretty sure. Looks half-black in a lot of the book but some shot look white. That’s where they also yanked the short hair design from. Think she does some wig shit in this too. Book has a fantastic scene where Batman crashes a party of Gotham’s corrupt elite and tells them their time is up. Some of the scenes with Batman leaping around after talking to Gordon prior to having his batsuit was inspired by this book. Here he gets stabbed and considers letting himself bleed out. Bruce Wayne is fucking nuts here and, if I remember correctly, pretty fucking violent. Been about 10 years since I last read it though, so I might be conflating it with other stories.
Also, Nolen did multiple villains each time but he did it in a world building way that was seamless for the most part. If they do it that way, I do not give two fucks that Riddler, Penguin, Catwoman, and Falcone are in this. I know Nolan’s part 3 gets lambasted, and it is the weaker of the Bale trilogy, but goddamn go watch Batman Forever or Batman and Robin. The Dark Knight Rises is the goddamn Godfather compared to that shit.
