Thge production section is currently tagged as needing expansion. I would tend to disagree. Not every article needs to be 50kb. At the risk of being too bold I didn't remove it. I thought I'd come here and seek comments first. Quadzilla99 14:36, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
I think this'd be nice to add into the article. Alientraveller 19:11, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Gothic Oedipus: subjectivity and Capitalism in Christopher Nolan's Batman Begins. — Erik ( talk • contrib) - 17:31, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
I think the image should stay on wikipedia, because it also explains the other character in the film. And as I've seen in other articles I've seen images to illustrate the characters in the film. Zerorules677 06:50, 01 May 2007 (UTC)
We have the info about the "Long Halloween" comics and stuff. What we need is atleast a stable paragraphs worth of information about the Scarecrow to help support a fair use rationale about the image. If the Begins DVD has more information on the creation of Scarecrow, then sort through it and add it to the article. If you are unsure how/where to add it, then drop it off here and we'll help you format the citations and find the proper place for the information. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 01:09, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

This tag has been removed twice from the article on the premise that the article is not highly relevant to the Chicago WP. Obviously, banner templates have 4 levels of priority. This argument could be used to remove the tag from any page designated as a low priority by a project thus eliminating the possibility of improvement by that project. If it is not can you tell me what priority=low tags are appropriate and which are not. I.E., are there any tags low priority tags that you would not remove from this article. Do you oppose the use of banner templates to assign low priority. I think your argument is a ratification of a importance tag if you do not universally oppose use of the low priority tag.
Generally, WP:WPChi puts the {{ ChicagoWikiProject}} tag on movies that were either filmed in part in Chicago or set in Chicago. Although currently I only have a citation for one building, I recall that several others looked familiar when viewing the movie. It is likely that other Chicagoans with other expertises and resources might be able to improve the article. You might know better than me, but I even believe the Chicago 'L' is part of the movie. The argument against this one is that other cities in which the movie was set do not tag the article. This is not meaningful because few cities are actively tagging their articles. Most cities are just getting their efforts going. For example, Hong Kong has only actively tagged about 400 articles with priority ratings out of a total of 2700 articles. The majority of their articles are low and mid priority like this would be if they got to it. London is a little further along in actively tagging at about 1000 but only have a total of 1440. More than half of their tagged articles are low priority where this would likely fall if they got to it. I am not familiar with the work of either city but I know most cities have not tagged all articles important to them. For example, I was looking at the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (New York) and noticed the NY WP had not tagged them. Nor had they tagged the New York Mets. It is hit or miss and mostly miss with low importance.
I guess you could oppose any low importance tag, but am not sure why you would wish to do so. TonyTheTiger ( talk/ cont/ bio/ tcfkaWCDbwincowtchatlotpsoplrttaDCLaM) 01:57, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
Should somewhere we mention that it is not completley clear if Ra's al Ghul survived or not. No one is really positive either way, but should this be noted in this article. On the Ra's al Ghul page here at Wikipedia it says something about him not being dead. (Supposedly) ManofSTEEL2772 02:00 AM July 5 2007
I don't understand why the link to the Dark Knight entry was deleted. It is completely relevent. I agree that not much detail should be given, but there should be mention of it. Arnabdas 17:39, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
The plot synopsis seems to contain a spoiler, reveling Ducat's dual identity. I see from the archives that there was a spoiler notice in the artice at an earlier time - was there a reason that this was removed? -- Badger151 01:16, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
(ec) How about a compromise? Character details will clearly fall under Cast, and the lead paragraph can be purged of any mention of the specific characters that are portrayed, with the exception of Batman. To find out the roles that are portrayed, a reader can venture to the Cast section to find out the details. I don't think that the mention of Ra's Al Ghul is completely spoiler-ish, but I do think that it serves as part of a turning point in the film that does not need mention in the lead. — Erik ( talk • contrib) - 19:52, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
A request to anyone who can use Chris Nolan's foreword to this new edition of The Long Halloween to cite how Harvey Dent was originally going to appear in Batman Begins. Alientraveller 20:16, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
Various websites have attempted to draw a connection between this film and the philosophy of Objectivism ( http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/07/01/AR2005070100370.html?sub=AR, http://bncreitz.blogspot.com/2005/12/speaking-of-ayn-rand.html, http://www.objectivistliving.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2389). Is there any concrete proof that Chistopher Nolan explicitly held these views, or that the themes in this movie run parallel with Ayn Rand's writings, or this just their personal interpretation? 24.24.90.148 00:26, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
I was wondering, does anyone think this image of Bale in the suit works better than the image being used currently? BIGNOLE (Contact me) 06:11, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
Why is this in the article? Wouldn't this be considered nothing more than trivia? It's poorly written and the single citation is from IMDb, not a good reference. I'm removing it for now. QuasiAbstract ( talk) 13:45, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
The citation for 'Cream of the Crop' is a broken link. The 'Top Critics' average is now 82%, significantly higher than the 63% claimed in the article.
