== Gotham City article info ==
There's a fair amount of information at [[Gotham City]] which is not reflected here in this article. Would someone please bring over anythign that can be used, and delete anything which you can refute based on the research and info here? I don't want to randomly throw in facts from there to here and significantly throw off all the work that got this a GA, but there's abotu zero apparent overlap between the two articles.

== Box office grosses ==
It says in this article that Batman Forever is the 4th highest grossing Batman film to date. Under the Batman Returns article, it says that Batman Returns is the 4th highest grossing Batman film to date. Which is it?[[User:Vesus|Vesus]] ([[User talk:Vesus|talk]]) 03:37, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Well, Vesus as of 2008, ''Batman Forever'' is currently the fourth highest grossing Batman film to date. Remember ''The Dark Knight'', and it knocked down ''Batman Returns'' from the fourth to the fifth. See below.

list of the highest grossing Batman films as of 2007
1. Batman (1989)
2. Batman Begins (2005)
3. Batman Forever (1995)
4. Batman Returns (1992)
5. Batman and Robin (1997)
6. Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1994)

== year in film links ==

I've just done a date audit and discovered that the monobook script is suddenly removing such links. I've checked with the programmer. In fact, I think WikiProject film might already deprecate such links. Please let me know if you want me to revert (or are reverting yourselves—feedback would be good). [[User:Tony1|<font color="darkgreen">'''Tony'''</font >]] [[User talk:Tony1|<font color="darkgreen">(talk)</font >]] 03:42, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
:I'd say have the links in there. Considering this is a '95 film, [[1995 in film]] is a better link than simply [[1995]]. Plus, and this is just me, I'm sometimes curious what other films came out that year and the link is a nice thing to have.

== The "original cut" ==

I appreciate the info, but we seriously need to find some other way to summarize this whole thing. Any suggestions? [[User:Wildroot|Wildroot]] ([[User talk:Wildroot|talk]]) 06:55, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
:Summarizing might be good, but surely we would lose information in doing that? The list I posted is not the complete list, just the most important changes.[[User:JesusFreak89|JesusFreak89]] ([[User talk:JesusFreak89|talk]]) 06:46, 7 January 2009 (UTC)JesusFreak89

==Sugar and Spice fate==
The Movie is ambiguous as to the fate of Sugar and Spice-it only shows them running away on stairs under the platform after Nigma's carrier beam is destroyed. Was it planned that way in the original script? <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/74.83.126.88|74.83.126.88]] ([[User talk:74.83.126.88|talk]]) 17:41, 5 November 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Filming location ==

Weren't the external scenes of "Wayne Mansion" shot at Webb Institute in Glen Cove, NY? The Wikipedia entries for other Batman movies include information about where they were filmed. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webb_Institute

How is 77 percent more balanced than 44 percent?

== Reused footage? ==

After Bruce takes Dick into his home, he has a flashback to the murder of his parents.
Is that footage reused from an earlier movie (maybe an alternate angle?), or is it new?

== Nicole Kidman ==

Must it also be mentioned that Nicole Kidman looked ab-so-LUTE-ly stunning in this film. So good in fact that there's nothing else or better in the film to watch but her. She completely embodies the character and there's really nothing else that stays in your mind after watching the film. Truly, one of the best girls to ever come out of a superhero movie, and I've seen a lot these days. Go Chase!

The url is not random as it talks about Michael Keaton walking away from the Batman Franchise to his reason not being in Batman Forever. You should read the information in the url. It appears the information has been updated on the Batman Forever page by someone. [[User:Majinsnake|Majinsnake]] ([[User talk:Majinsnake|talk]]) 00:26, 25 January 2017 (UTC)


== More Chase Meridian inconsistencies ==


Dr. Chase Meridian is mentioned five times, with 4 different links:
== Bill Finger Creator Credit ==
1. Dr._Chase_Meridian → List_of_Batman_supporting_characters#Film
2. Dr._Leslie_Thompkins ''!!''
3. ''no link''
4. Dr._Chase_Meridian → List_of_Batman_supporting_characters#Film
5. List_of_Batman_supporting_characters


Worth noting that the <code>#Film</code> fragment identifier works well only because Dr. Meridan is the first item in the unordered list following the “Film” <code>mw-headline</code>. [[User:Sbauman|Sbauman]] ([[User talk:Sbauman|talk]]) 17:00, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
I've added Bill Finger to the infobox under the "based on" section along with Bob Kane. As I've stated on the other Batman film pages, Finger is now an acknowledged co-creator of Batman. I think it's important to add this to each page since it keeps the pages as factual as possible - without this note in the infobox there is little or no reference to Finger as the co-creator, while some mention of Kane's contribution is still present. I've noted that Finger's contribution was uncredited at the time.
