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. |

== 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).

: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.

==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--> |

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 |

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? |

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) |

== Bill Finger Creator Credit == |
|||
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. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Friendly Lobotomy|Friendly Lobotomy]] ([[User talk:Friendly Lobotomy#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Friendly Lobotomy|contribs]]) 19:50, 9 November 2017 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

Throughout the article Meridian is referred to alternately as a 'psychologist' and 'psychiatrist'. These are two distinct things - but I can't find a definitive source on it outside .fandom wikis (which are similarly inconsistent). |

Dr. Chase Meridian is mentioned five times, with 4 different links: |

Vulture.com [https://www.vulture.com/2019/08/joel-schumacher-in-conversation.html interviewed Joel Schumacher]. He comments about Kilmer "I said he was pyschotic", and says that Tommy Lee Jones was difficult but always delivered good takes. He says "I shouldn't have made a sequel" and explains his reasoning, and also makes his opinions clear "Nor do I ever think Batman and Robin are gay." |
