Review Detail

I am personally a big fan of extended versions of films, but I also felt like the Batman could have been shortened to improve some pacing issues. This edit satisfies both check boxes for me and turns the Batman into a premium HBO series that would fit nicely into future Gotham tv series like the Penguin. I didn't have much time to sit and rewatch all of Batman in one sitting so it worked out when I watched the first two episodes in one night and the other two in two consecutive weeks. It felt like it was supposed to be released that way. And when the intros are cut in, they are cut in so organically it feels like it belongs there. The inclusion of the joker scene as a cold open work wonderfully. I will be only watching this edit for rewatches and recommend others to do so.
