8# Penguins Batmobile Driving Simulator - Batman Returns (1992)
Batman is engaged in a hand to hand fight with Catwoman across Gothams rooftops, deflecting kicks and desperately avoiding the sharp drops from the edge of each building. While his adversary is distracted, Penguin intervenes by sending his goons to sabotage the Batmobile. Rather than fitting the flame throwing auto with a bomb, which would require ingenuity and quick thinking to defuse, they instead fit the car with a remote control system, allowing Penguin to drive it using a scale replica housed inside his Oswald Cobblepot Electoral Trailer. The result is that a chase which could have been hectic and exciting is reduced to a farce, the camera shots of the Batmobile hitting civilians while screeching with alarming abandon through the city cut with embarrassing glimpses of the Penguin rocking his trailer in glee. Perhaps this wouldnt have been so bad if the scene prior to this one hadnt have been one of the better ones for showcasing Batmans inimitable cool. As it stands, the contrast is noticeable and disappointing.
