Yet somehow they continue to come up with excellent stories for the character in comics despite being all thatWell unfortunately if you make a movie about Batman as he really is (flawless, fearless, perfect mind, supreme confidence, supreme willpower, uncanny deduction skills, scientific brilliance, uncompromising discipline, unyielding spirit)... you don't really have a lot of places to go as it pertains to a character arc. Which is cool for comics and cartoons and shyt like that cause of their long episodic nature but for a 2 hour self contained movie I think people wanna see the main character make some kind of emotional journey before it's all over.
Unless of course you go the Bond route.
