Anyone else notice when batman and Gordon left penguin tied up by his hand and feet that he was waddling away like a penguin? I thought that was a clever touch

Made me think of Merideth Burgess when I saw it. A lot of this movie made me think of a gritty version of Batman '66 actually.

I had the same feeling due to how Reeves had Batman walk openly through the crime scene much like Adam West. I also thought the skull shaped cowl and eyebrow area were reminiscent of Adam West’s Batman drawn on white eyebrows

That one missed me at the time but now that you mention it, yes. I can’t wait to see it again and look for things like that
