Trivia
Although Christian Bale performed many of his own stunts, he wasn't allowed anywhere near the Batmobile.

Goofs
Searchlights like the one Falcone is tied to are incredibly hot. Anyone held against one like that would be horribly burned.

Quotes
Henri Ducard: But I know the rage that drives you. That impossible anger strangling the grief, until the memory of your loved one is just... poison in your veins. And one day, you catch yourself wishing the person you loved had never existed, so you would be spared your pain.

Crazy credits
This is the first DC Comics film to have a DC Comics logo on it. This logo was in fact a new one, that was designed the same year the film came out.

Birth of The Batman...

A plunge into the depths creates real fear, as out of darkness swarming beasts cause to appear, later at, the opera, you start to tremble, shake and cower, leads to an exit, where the price is quite severe. Some years later and a journey is begun, from the light into the shadows where you run, as Ra's al Ghul becomes mentor, or is he just, a tormentor, the cycle closes, returning to the forsaken. A new friend is made and doors begin to slide, finding technologies, to halt and stop the tide, tools to fight, the criminals, mobsters without principles, a winged vigilante, in Gotham City, now resides.
