Good post Doc.
Batman is The Dark Knight. Movies that remember this are always better than the movies that treat him like a cartoon character just out saving the world. He has his own inner demons that, if portrayed correctly, make him so much more than "just another hero out to save the day." It's also why, despite being one of the coolest comic book characters, The Punisher will never make a good movie. He's just too raw. If you capture that you have a good guy that's worse than any bad guy, which is hard to watch on screen, and if you don't include the raw part of him it just isn't The Punisher.
