Line 9:
*** The movie doesn't necissarially take place at the same time as the series...
**** Oh, good point there. Taking into account the various "pre-Batman" a-ha moments Bruce goes through in the flashbacks (the ninja-like disguise, the prototype Batmobile at the World's Fair, encountering Jack Napier at the Beaumont's home), it looks like he's within the first couple of months of his career...Granted, the presence of the Batwing may or may not scupper this, but [[Crazy Prepared|this is Batman we're talking about]]. Remember, Andrea hasn't aged that much either...only a couple of years is [[User:Prime Evil|my]] personal guess. Her hair is still red, yes, but the scar tissue of her father's death is still fresh. Oh, and, ''the people of Gotham, Cmsr. Gordon notwithstanding, still don't know what to do with the Batman.''
**** I've always liked to imagine that it takes place (obviously out of canon, and with several differences as far as events go) a few months after the events of [[Batman: Year One]], since there is a scene reminiscent of Batman's run from the police from that book, so Batman's been around for a while, but not long enough to have learned everything yet. He's still working without Robin for one.
***** My guess is Robin/Dick Grayson is away at college, like he was for most of the first three seasons.
***** At the very least, it takes place after the episode ''On Leather Wings'', because Harvey Dent is absent for Reed's "Bat bashing" campaign and thus probably already Two-Face.
