Plot mismatch?

Seems to me like the plot section here is for a more recent Batman movie, not the one this article is supposed to be about. 1bandsaw (talk) 23:17, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

In "Plot", "for covering up Dents crimes" should be "for covering up Dent's crimes"

Baneposting

This movie has had an enormous, lasting cultural influence on the internet culture, shouldn't it at least be mentioned? 2001:630:E4:4220:2831:57BB:24F0:DB59 (talk) 02:21, 6 May 2017 (UTC)

If you can cite a reliable source, then yes. DonQuixote (talk) 04:34, 6 May 2017 (UTC)
The Daily Dot covers it here. No idea if this is reliable enough

Creator Credit in Infobox

I've been going through the Batman film pages and adding Bill Finger's contribution to the "based on" credits. To keep with some consistency I'm going to add those credits to the infobox here. Other pages for films based on characters have this type of credit in their infobox, so I think it works in this case (see: Sherlock Holmes (2009 film) or Wonder Woman (2017 film)) Friendly Lobotomy (talk) 20:18, 9 November 2017 (UTC)

Consensus: Should the opening scene (which is famously referenced in the Baneposting meme) be mentioned in the "Plot" section?

The "Plot" section describes the main plot of the movie, including many major scenes. However, I've noticed that it makes no mention of the opening scene. Should we add a summary of the events that transpire during the opening scene to the "Plot" section? Zakawer (talk) 14:14, 1 February 2018 (UTC)

I don't think it's necessary. The "Plot" section states midway, "He kills Mayor Anthony Garcia and forces Dr. Leonid Pavel, a Russian nuclear physicist he kidnapped from Uzbekistan, to convert the reactor core into an atomic bomb before killing him as well." The opening scene is good drama, but the key detail from it for summarizing the plot is already nicely embedded. If the scene is discussed by reliable sources elsewhere in the article body, then it can be briefly described for context. (E.g., "For the first six minutes in which Bane kidnaps a nuclear physicist mid-air, IMAX cameras were used...") The overall summary should simply explain the overall story that takes place in the film so readers can understand in general what the of the article will discuss.

Spelling error

There is a spelling error on the first line of the Reception section: "The we site's critical consensus reads" should be "The web site's critical consensus reads"

Possible correction for a critic's quote in the Reception section

One of the starting quotes is "The Daily Telegraph granted the film a maximum score of five stars, stating that it is "a superhero film without a superhero," comparing it with The Godfather Part II and praising Hardy's performance as well as the film's intricate plot and narrative." I looked at the link a while back and the author Robbie Collin, in his first paragraph was likening how The Dark Knight impressed people on the level of Michael Mann's Heat or The Godfather Part II did. So maybe the mention of comparing it with The Godfather Part II should be removed? (2605:6000:20C2:1F00:91B0:75A3:19DD:B118 (talk) 08:12, 7 October 2020 (UTC))

Help with citation of articles

I just created an account with Wikipedia here, and I wanted to add some best of lists that this film was featured on, as well as help possibly correct something in the Reception section. As for the former, I got most of my lists cited except for two. I successfully added citations for 260 and 262. I'm having trouble with 258 and 263, since I was citing them similar to the way I formatted the two others. They're for the film being listed on a best superhero movies poll in the U.K. by Virgin Media in 2018, and film critic Robbie Collin of The Daily Telegraph who listed it on his 100 greatest films of all time list that same year. Like for 263, it comes out as- {{cite web|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/films/0/best-movies-all-time-100-greatest-films/%7Ctitle=The 100 greatest movies of all time|website=The Telegraph |language=en|access-date=October 7, 2020]]. I'm trying to format it like a normal link; like I have for 262 with "The 25 best superhero movies, ranked by Robbie Collin". The Telegraph. Retrieved October 6, 2020. Thanks.

Influential

Are these 3 sources [1][2][3] Valid enough for the claim that rises is one of the influential films of the decade alongside begins and night? I ask before I edit to make sure I don’t vandalize. Would love any input — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jaszen (talkcontribs) 23:01, 15 December 2022 (UTC)
