I managed to get ahold of the proto of the MMS DX batman today, while I visited action city. Sculpt looks ok in person, although I didnt figure out how to move the eyes, since I tried removing the head from the body and there were bluetacs all over the neck part

Ever notice in TDK when Batman jumps onto Scarecrows van.
He leaps facing the vans left side and lands facing the front of the van.
When Bruce Wayne is getting stitched up and he's discussing the copycats, when he says inspire people, look at the edit going from his head up to his head down.
Does anyone recall any other odd edits?
And I never get sick of watching the Batmobile's entrance.

The leap is because he times how long it'll take him to hit from when he sees the car so he'll land like he does.

Correct and he does time it perfect but when he's looking down you see the van and he's definately supposed to land facing the left side of the van, go watch again, unmistakable that it's a bad cut, which is really odd.

My mistake, I was thinking he watched it do a lap before leaping.

No biggie
And the single most odd thing out of this wonderful movie, why does batman go around blowing up massive property with his batpod.
What happened if those kids were in the cars he blew up...
Actually, if someone could answer this one for me.
When Batman crashes his Batpod, does he pass out on purpose as part of the plan to catch Joker?
Because the crash didn't seem so bad that his suit wouldn't be able to take the hit.

Re: Hot Toys - MMS DX 02 - TDK- BATMAN full spec and pics
I think it's all just typical movie magic. Filmmakers often ignore reality or likelihood of something actually making sense for the fact that if they do things right, you'll get so caught up watching it that you don't care. Movies are made for sort of mindless viewing for the most part, not to meet every bit of scrutiny that some people will put them through.
For example, the conclusion of JAWS is very far fetched, and Spielberg was warned by the producers that it seemed that way and he argued that it didn't matter how farfetched the ending was, he knew that the the other 95% of the film would have the viewers so hooked into everything by that point, it didn't have to seem plausible, it just had to be the conclusion viewers would want and he was right, people accepted it because it felt right, even if foolish.
Same goes with Batman, doesn't make much sense to pass out from a crash like that, but Nolan does a good job and you're so wrapped up in what the Joker's going to do, as a casual viewer, you don't stop to think why's he passed out, you're instantly drawn back to the Joker and concerned what'll happen next and it makes for a more interesting scene.

Thats something I couldn't help thinking about. How did he know there was no one in those cars? Someone could have been lying down having a nap in the backseats!

The idea is for people not to ponder that sort of thing and just be wowed by the neat explosions and the speed of the Batpod, which for the most part you can focus on.
One thing that amazes me with vigillante's is the complete disregard for innocent property. He blows up whatever's in his way and crashes into anything with no regard for property damage.

Re: Hot Toys - MMS DX 02 - TDK- BATMAN full spec and pics
No, I didnt. But I managed to play around with the sticky bomb gun, and since it was a proto, it has the bluetac all over as well to keep the part A and part B together. But I can see that the eyes are seperately molded, as I can see gaps.

i dont think batman passed out, cause his eyes are open when the joker put the knife up his throat. but he was going pretty fast and slammed into the side of a truck, so it seemed to me that he was just stunned/in a lot of pain.

I wonder if Nolan didn't use bats as "backup" in TDK as he did in BB because of the reality he was trying to create.
Also, why no mention of the BIG events in BB, like the train crash and what happened in the narrows.
Narrows was only briefly mentioned in TDK but nothing to do with the events.

Maybe he passed out and was brought back to consciousness when the electricity in his cowl snapped at the clown.
I think that the "backup" in BB was that movies big "suspension of disbelief technology" - i.e., the far-out technology that requires the viewer to give him the benefit of the doubt.
Likewise, TDK had the city-wide sonar surveillance program - also requiring suspension of disbelief.
It's one thing to ask viewers to give him the benefit of the doubt on one or two things - but the more you have, the more you push it (it goes from being a realistic movie to being a superhero fantasy). So Nolan chooses not to draw attention to the fantastic elements, requiring him to use as few as possible. In this case, the sonar was enough fantasy.

I think Bat vision was way more over the top than the bat backup in BB.

Valid point regarding how many over the top fantasy elements one can get away with.
