"For me, Batman Forever was all about Bruce finding his father’s journal and in it, it said, ‘Martha and I want to stay home tonight, but Bruce insists on going to see a movie,’ and you discover it was all, he’s been holding on to the guilt all the way through about being responsible for his parents’ deaths. Robert Pattinson's Batman Will Romance and Marry Zoe Kravitz's Catwoman in Matt Reeves' Trilogy?Īkiva Goldsman, co-screenwriter on Batman Forever in his recent interaction with Colliderrevealed his earlier plans for the movie and why the story arc of Bruce Wayne discovering his parents' death was his fault didn't make it to the final cut.

While no Batman movie in the past had highlighted this storyline or should we say didn't risk having it, Val Kilmer's Batman Forever had this similar subplot. The episode is probably the worst chapter in his entire life but imagine a scenario wherein he'd come to know that he was always responsible for their death. When Hanna is speaking to Alan Marciano ( Hank Azaria), Marciano questions why he got involved with Charlene Shiherlis ( Ashley Judd) at all, and Hanna shouts, "Cause she's got a great ass.and you got your head all the way up it!" The camera cuts to a stunned Marciano, and we hear Hanna say, "Ferocious, aren't I?" The camera then cuts to Hanna and he says, "When I think of asses, a woman's ass, something comes out of me." In the Blu-ray cut, the line "Ferocious, aren't I?" has been removed from the audio track.The reason why Bruce Wayne becomes Batman was to avenge his parents' death and of course to fight the crimes in the Gotham city but that's secondary.To cover this edit, the camera cuts to Hanna rather than staying on Justine for the entirety of her monologue (which was how the scene played out in the Theatrical Cut). The rest is the mess you leave as you pass through." In the Blu-ray cut, the line "You sift through the detritus" has been removed. That's the only thing you're committed to. You sift through the detritus, you read the terrain, you search for signs of passing, for the scent of your prey, and then you hunt them down. In the Theatrical Cut, Justine says, "You don't live with me, you live among the remains of dead people. When Vincent Hanna ( Al Pacino) returns to the restaurant to pick up Justine ( Diane Venora), they have a low-key argument about his obsessive police work and how it is affecting the marriage.For the film's Blu-ray release in 2009, director Michael Mann made two minor changes to the film (this Blu-ray cut has been used for all subsequent home video releases):
