One of the better things about the success of Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight feature film series is the amount of parody videos the movies have spawned. The veritable Bat-Swarm of sketches each focuses on their own collection of plot holes, strange acting choices, and depressingly twist-able dialogue. The Batman may be the world’s greatest detective, but even the mightly Bat-Computer is no match for a trusty search engine, and in a short amount of time I was able to dig up a good crop of Batman-related funny to inject into your brains like your own personal comedic Dr. Leslie Thompkins.
If you got that deep cut Batman reference, good for you! If you didn’t, don’t worry... none of these sketches are digging too deep into the 70-year Batman canon for their jokes. Cue the Bat-Signal... let’s do this!
Probably the most widely recognized parody in recent months was a pretty amazingly well designed SNL Digital Short staring Steve Buschemi as Commissioner Gordon and Andy Samberg as Batman. It’s raw, funny, and it’s right here for you to enjoy:
After the break we’ll look at the amazing Batman parody work from CollegeHumor.com which is not to be missed. Click on, chum.
