7 Movie Crises That Would Have Been Solved In Seconds by Batman

3. 12 Angry Men

The Situation: You're a man in a small, stuffy room, trying the case of an alleged murderer with eleven other jurors. You think the man is innocent, are the only one who thinks so, and refuse to commit to a hung jury without allowing everyone to give their evidence for the guilty verdict. One by one, you win everyone over and save the day. It takes about an hour and forty minutes. Enter The Batman: So, you're in a small, stuffy room with Batman, trying the case of an alleged murderer with ten other jurors, all of whom are trying not to defecate themselves as the shadow master stands in the only darkened corner of the room counting the ways in which he could labor your breathing with a whisper and well-placed fingernail. Batman thinks the man is innocent because he's the f***ing Batman and you just remembered that having your limbs ripped off and shoved through every pore in your body is unpleasant. Almost instantaneously, Batman "wins" everyone over and saves the day. It takes about four seconds.

Cameron Carpenter is an aspiring screenwriter, current film and journalism student, and self-diagnosed cinephile, which only sounds bad in certain circles. Devoted fan of comics, movies, theater, Jesus Christ, Sidney Lumet, and Peter O'Toole, he sometimes spends too much time on his Scribd and comicbookmovie.com, but doesn't think you're one to judge, devoted reader. You can follow him on Twitter to watch him talk to people you didn't know exist. Oh, and Daredevil is quite the big deal around here (my head).
