Weren't there chalk lines?

Nor does she have a single prayer

No, but she did have a single bullet in her

CARLOS!

Women aren't allowed to speak unless they're agreeing with the director, OP.

Frank Miller doesn't like the sound of women voices.

"I still don't see why we had to leave the opera early."

>>33231901
Ohh Carlos.
You card.

On my rewatch from a couple of weeks ago, I noticed this too. I also picked up that Bruce's father is the only one that people refer to. He gets the most attention in flashbacks, as well.

Is Christopher Nolan sexist?

>>33231885
/thread

>>33231975

Having seen all of his movies, it seems that he's not so much sexist as incapable of directing women well.

>>33232002

That's why I'm worried about Catwoman. Nolan's going to have trouble with her.

>>33231975
It's like that in the comics, too.
How much can you honestly remember about Martha Wayne?
While Thomas Wayne was the reason Kal-El was sent to Earth pre-reboot.
Seriously.

He is the Anti-Whedon.

>>33232055
Indeed. Under the right director, I'm sure Anne Hathaway could give a decent performance as Catwoman, but she's not NEARLY as good an actress as Cotillard and I'm not sure she could give as great a performance as Cotillard does with Nolan.

His dad is a doctor and a philanthropist. His mom is just arm candy.

Well Marion is the mastermind behind TDKR

It's minor, but Alfred says Mother's Day is NOT the day you approach Bruce on in "The Long Halloween". They even show why - he goes into full Bats-mode when cops try to question him in Crime Alley, and they find him having a small tantrum at her grave.

Neither does mine.

>>33232243
I wonder how Jason deals with mother's day.

He is like Guts, two dead moms for the price of one.

>>33232243
Well, yeah. She's his mom.
But Martha Wayne as a person? No. She's notable for being a Kane and her pearl necklace. She's an ordinary attractive woman far overshadowed by her husband, who did all sorts of shit.

>>33232243
>throwing a tantrum
I can imagine cops just watching Bruce rolling on the floor screaming

>>33232340

At least we know how Guts deals with it.

>>33232340
Being a sociopath, I doubt he cares anymore.

She has 2.
When Bruce is freaking out at the opera, she says
"What's wrong Bruce?"
And then in the Alley she says
"I still don't see why we had to leave" as pointed out by >>33231962

>>33232354
Sorry, it's all I got. Being used for characterization is better than nothing.

>>33232386
Almost - he's bawling and hugging her tombstone. Probably my favorite chapter in the collection; very nice humanization.

>>33232473
Actually I stand corrected, she only had the "What's wrong Bruce line.

She asked what was wrong with Bruce on the way out of the back exit during the opera.

>>33232583
Why the hell did they take the back exit anyways? I think every person that lives in or near a large city knows not to go down the back alleys.

>>33232623
They didn't want to make a scene by walking out of the front door. It would probably send a bad message to the players and the owners of the theater.

>>33232623
>>33232623

His dad was portrayed as a pretty trusting guy, maybe even naive. Also, upscale opera houses have very strict exit/entrance rules so you don't disturb people. The front entrance was likely closed and the usher led them to a side-exit.

Batman should be angsty over that usher more than Chill. I mean, what's Joe gonna do, NOT kill his parents? It's in his nature.

>>33232725
Damn Ushers.
