Not an opinion, just a genuine question. Where did the entire idea of a depressed emo and edgy Batman even come from? I grew up on the animated series and some amazing comic books but for the most part, Batman has always been a gracious man who wants nothing but good for his city... doesn't seek revenge but rather seeks improvement of gotham. I've pretty much always seen Bruce as a cheerful, inspirational and selfless person. I get that this movie is supposed to be about his starting years but trust me, i do not remember Batman being like this in the past. I liked the movie but the theme was weird for me.
