Blind as a BatĪlthough Batman and his enemies look decent, the lack of onscreen objects and background effects quickly induces boredom. Using your grappling hook and bat glide is no picnic, either.

For a while, Edward seemingly wants to become Bruce, complete with the same hairstyle and a fake mole to replicate Kilmer. His dejection over Bruce refusing to fund his brainwave project is clearly more than just professional disappointment. He is instantly star-struck and photos of Bruce line his cubicle wall, including the cover headshot for “Ms. Early in Batman Forever, it appears Edward Nygma is obsessed with Bruce, featuring strong hints of homoeroticism during their first meeting.
