5:10 PMIndia Film Project

There is something very familiar about batman to all of us, being his heroic appearance to his mask,to his Batmobile and Batpod and to his ladylove 'The Catwoman'. But here's bringing you some very astonishing facts that you might or might have known.

1. There’s a city called 'Batman' in Turkey.

We don’t know whether the superhero resides there or not, but the place is beautiful.
So next time you plan for a vacation to Turkey, keep the Batman town on your visit list.



2. Batman fought Ebola in the 90’s and Robin almost died.

Even superheroes should practice proper hygiene.



3. Quentin Tarantino doesn’t like Batman, claiming he’s “not a very interesting character”.

According to Quentin the best Batman could be played by Alec Baldwin in the ’80s.

 

4. The Dark Knight is the first Batman film not to incorporate the word “Batman” into its title.

It was successful that Christopher Nolan decided to make another movie about the superhero without the word “Batman” (“The Dark Knight Rises”).
I still wonder, what made Nolan switch over batman and come up with Dark Knight Rises...



5. Tom Hardy (Bane) needed 3 inch heels to“look in the eyes of Batman”

Actors just do what they should…


6. The secret Batman’s identity is not so secret.

In fact eleven characters know (or have known) that Batman and Bruce Wayne are the same person.
Did you know BTW?



7.  Andy Warhol directed the first ever Batman film.

His work, “Batman Dracula” was never officially released though.
Only if Dracula had the LOOKS, it would have been on the list of most of the teenage Girl Crush, Yes Dracula.... that's right.


8. Ben Affleck is the only actor to wear both a Batman suit and Superman suit in two different films.

It remains to play them both in one movie…


9. Luke Skywalker is the voice of the Joker in Batman: The Animated Series.

The final galaxy’s Jedi warrior comes to the dark side in Batman.


10. Paul Reubens (Pee Wee Herman) was in Batman Returns (1992) as Penguin’s Dad.

Which role do you like most?


11. Batman was inspired by Da Vinci, movies and masked men (just in case you thought, it was dream sort of identity).

Wings were taken from Da Vinci’s sketch of a flying device, the suit and the identity were inspired by the movie “Bat whisperers” 1930, the rich alter ego was inspired by the movie “The Mask of Zorro” 1920, the radio show character named the Shadow inspired the cloak of Batman, his dual identity and his sleuthing talent.


12. Batman was once the name of a position in the military.

It was a position of an officer’s orderly or servant.
(why would it only be Batman) :S


13. It was the fans who killed Robin.

In 1988 readers were asked their opinion about the end of Robin’s story, the majority (5343 out of 10000) voted for his death, so he was promptly killed.
OH ! That's a good way of ending a story, when the brain doesn't help u with solutions :P
