I thought that too, I was so glad they didn't go that route.
Yeah needlessly linking shyt to Bruce is a slipperly slope.
The batmobile lighting up & engine revving was heart stopping. Then exploding out of the flames in the highway. Batman walking up with the camera upside down. Best 20 minute stretch of the movie

sigh….*unzips pants*
I might be a lil off cuz it’s been years since I played the games but wasn’t there a part of the story where Bats hallucinated off of Scarecrow gas? But like to the complete max where the entire world was warped….that should be a thing in the next movie. Save Joker for last where he reveals he orchestrated the fukkery in the last couple movies.
But from the literal beginning, it's established that Riddler is a SERIAL KILLER.
Not only that the Riddler explained that the problem isn't just corrupt politicians, police and rich elites but the entire city of GOTHAM needed to be cleansed.
Mass murder what indeed the next step.
It's not like TDK, where Joker started out killing corrupt politicians and mobsters then abruptly made Gotham a litmus test of morality on the two ferries. There's actually a plan with foreshadowing clues throughout The Batman showing where all of it would lead.

A. That didn’t happen. His first attack were against the mob. He didn’t attack corrupt politicians( the mayor, judge lady, police chief, Rachel, and Harvey, Gordon were clean as a whistle). His point was that everyone was corrupt when pushed and set out to prove it. Corrupting the White Knight. Making Batman kill. Then turning the citizens against each other like the ransom on Reese’s head.
B. It’s never established anything about rhe Riddler’s mindset about killing. All the deaths were done differently.
C. The only connective thread about the killings were the Renewal fund. You know which killings weren’t about the Renewal fund? The arena killings the Riddler didn’t participate in.
His entire agenda or the "big picture" he was telling Batman was to cleanse Gotham altogether. But he also had a PERSONAL agenda on the people responsible for killing his father which was the reporter.
He was also a Batman fanboy who he thought understood and shared the same views as he and gave him riddles to help bring Falcone out from seclusion. Which was the general idea because there wasn't any OTHER way to do it. All of it was an elaborate plan to get Falcone out in the open so he could kill him for murdering his father.
It wasn't at all random. And rather ingenious when thinking about it. But like in the comics, the Riddler is a NARCISSIST that wants recognition for what he done and the cleansing of Gotham was his view of being remembered but it only backfired because all it really did was made Batman be viewed as a hero instead or despite him practically pulling it off.

That wasn’t his father. You don’t know what you’re arguing.

Falcone left the club for the funeral and he didn’t kill him?
It was random. The murders didn’t lead into each other. It pointed to the club but could have been in any order.
If he killed the DA before the mayor it wouldn’t have mattered. The mayor’s death pointed him to the club but the DA was a happenstance of information to Catwoman then he’s caught by the Riddler. Not because of clues.
And if he’s after corruption in general, kill any of Falcone’s men selling drops? Nah. killing the mayor’s wife and kid? Nah. he stuck to the renewal fund perpetrators until he didn’t.

Zero Year and Year One Batman arcs are my fave so I loved this movie.
- Watched this in an AMC Dolby Cinema theatre so the rumble of the batmobile during the car chase scene was
- I have not stopped humming "Something in the way" all weekend long.

I love how my nikka
got his dues in this movie. Whole city looks at him as a hero by the end. 
Why the hell did he take a c4 explosion at point-blank range tho?
That tripped me out.
First 30 min of the movie I was ready to say that Battinson ain't it. But by the end, dude grew on me.
This may be the definitive movie portrayal of Batman of our generation.
As far as the folks who didn't like that he took a couple L's, y'all must didnt grow up reading the comics or watching the animated series.
Folks got the drop on the Bat all the time. It is what it is
How many times did the cartoon start off with my nikka tied up suspended upside down in the air over a vat of chemicals? It happens
