Line 195:
** [[Justified Trope|Justified]] in that he used to be the head of a highly prolific R&D department, which, as shown, produced a lot of things. A working knowledge of the science behind most of those things would probably be a necessary part of the job - if not necessary, from what we know of Fox, he'd pride himself on knowing about it anyway.
* [[Order Versus Chaos]]: Played exactly backwards between the two films. To the League of Shadows, Batman represents chaos because he lets thieves and murderers ''live.'' The Joker represents chaos no matter what, and anybody who tries to stop him stands for order by default.
* [[Playing Against Type]]: [[Gary Oldman]] is known for his great acting range, but is often [[Typecasting|typecast]] as a villain. In these movies, he plays a heroic Jim Gordon, and avoids [[Large Ham|going overboard]] with his acting.
* [[Police Are Useless]]: Pretty much, though they [[Take a Level In Badass]] in the second movie, particularly when Jim Gordon takes command. The police in Hong Kong are quick on the scene, but they pretty much watch in stunned helplessness as Lau is taken away by Batman in awesome fashion.
* [[Porn Stache]]: Sported by Jim Gordon.
