Batman

In the scene where the Joker's henchmen are trashing the museum, one guy puts purple handprints all over a portrait, later the Joker walks by the same portrait and the handprints are gone.

The young Jack Napier in the flashback has blue eyes, Jack Nicholson's are brown.

At the beginning of the movie when Commissioner Gordon and the police are standing outside of Access Chemicals Commissioner Gordon has very distinct facial hair. In the next shot when they are inside the plant he is clean shaven.

After Batman rescues Vickie he has a voice remote for the Batmobile. As the car approaches he orders the car to stop by speaking into the remote and then lowers it to his side. When the camera shot changes showing the car stopping right in front of him, he his still holding the remote to his mouth.

Vickie Vale's first name is V-I-C-K-I-E in the credits. On the cover of the magazine, it's spelled V-I-C-K-Y.


Batman Returns

In Schreck's department store, when Catwoman is doing her cartwheels, her heels collapse.

When Batman takes his mask off at the end, the black makeup smeared around his eyes vanishes.

The Penguin takes over control of the Batmobile, and goes on a spree. He also says some unkind things about Gotham City, which Batman takes the precaution of recording onto a compact disc. However, when he plays the slandering again, it's different from when The Penguin said it the first time.

When Bruce Wayne is playing the compact disc of The Penguin's slanders during his mayoral speech, it's not spinning as compact discs usually do when they play.

At one point, one of the Penguin's clowns kidnaps the mayor's baby, and drops into a sewer to hand the baby to The Penguin. As we peer into the sewer, we see that it's a narrow stone shaft. The Penguin then slowly emerges from the manhole from one of the ducks he keeps in the sewer. He would not have been able to emerge as far as he did even if he stood on the duck's head.

In one scene, the Penguin is making a "bat" shadow puppet on the ceiling. But there's no light behind his hands. If there's no light, there's no shadow.

When Selena Kyle (Catwoman) is listening to her answering machine messages before she is killed you hear an ad for "Gotham Lady perfume." But, when she returns home after her fall, the ad is a different one and longer.

When the baby basket is floating through the sewers, there are shadows but no lights, except for one scene where the lights are under water.

In the scene where the Penguin takes control of the Batmobile with Batman in it, Batman finds the remote by punching through the floor of the car. How are we supposed to believe that this mass of armour and weapons would have a floor weak enough to punch through?

When The Penguin dies, and is slowly sinking into the 'pool' in the sewer, you can see that while he is rather round, the shadow at the bottom of the pool is definitely rectangular, i.e. the platform on which he was being pulled was removed, but the shadow missed.


Batman Forever

Near the beginning, when Batman is suspended over the crowd on top of the bank vault, he fires a cable to the bank building itself. The force of the hook causes it to burst through the wall, which looks rather thin and weak, yet he then proceeds to cut the wire holding the vault to the helicopter, causing the vault to swing on the wire he fired through the weak wall. The wall has suddenly become much stronger, and the vault swings back to its original location.

Bruce Wayne didn't really need to suffer through those convoluted riddles to figure out who The Riddler really was. He could have simply asked around to find out who was making hundreds of neon question mark signs and laser beams, and it would have saved him a lot of trouble in the long run.

During the party scene when Edward Nygma is introducing his new Box, the fantasies of one can be seen on a television screen. Later when people are dancing, on one of the screens in the background, you can see Batman! Someone must be having a Batman fantasy.

Edward Nygma sends Bruce Wayne 2 riddles before deciding to be the Riddler.

At Edward Nygma's party at the Ritz Gotham there is a fountain with a large version of his "box" on top. When Two-Face comes, he shoots the "box" and destroys it. There should be some parts left over but when Batman falls through the ceiling he lands on the fountain and there's no remains of the "box."

In the scene where the Riddler invades Two Faces' Lair, he has nothing but his cane with him. But when he proceeds further into the lair, he picks up two of his "boxes." They were there before he got there.

More curiosity than goof - all throughout the movie, Batman keeps nagging Robin that he should not kill Two-Face - it won't bring back his parents and will make him kill again, and again... But at the end of the movie, Batman has put an ample amount of change in his pockets (utility belt?) just to fool Two-Face to grab for his coin amongst the change, and...well, you know what happened. What kind of example is this for Robin? Surely if he could reach for his change, he could have reached any number of devices from his utility belt to contain, not kill, Two-Face. Also keep in mind that Harvey Dent (who became Two-Face) was a friend of Bruce Wayne, which adds to the coldness of his death.

Billy Dee Williams, who's black, played Harvey Dent in the first movie.

When Two-face and Riddler enter Wayne Manor, and knock Alfred down, Alfred, unconscious, pushes the dinner tray aside, so the thugs can carry him in to the closet.


Batman and Robin

If Alicia Silverstone was born in England and has lived in England all these years, why doesn't she have any accent?

Not really a goof, but "Oxbridge Academy"? I mean come on....

When Barbara is accessing the password in Alfred's files, the picture appears without dedication and after with dedication.

In one scene where our heros are defrosting Gotham city using the sunlight, we see Commissioner Gordon stepping from his car which has been covered in flexible icicles.

The first confrontation with Dr. Freeze and his henchman involves them skating around a large ice covered area. The henchman are not using ice skates, but rollerblades. In the same scene we see ice skating blades pop out of Batman and Robin's boots, but when we actually see them skating, they are on rollerblades as well.
