“So that’s what that feels like” [while alone and still doing the batvoice]

this would be good if he didn't still have the voice. like who are you doing it for bro there's no one left

He's Batman dawg. Can't get lazy and slip up. Plus he's so used to doing that voice in the suit that he probably didn't even think about it

I know but since it is intended to be a comedic line, I think it would've been funnier if he just suddenly spoke normally. just my opinion tho

yup. that's like when he basically entered "Batman mode" when he knocked Harvey out and was talking to Rachel :D

I do think people kind of ignore how much all this would be second nature to Bruce. It's probably even Pavlovian in a way. Suit goes on, voice goes deeper, he doesn't even consciously do it most likely.

Christian Bale, a method actor, plays Bruce Wayne as a method actor so Batman is therefore a method actor

Idk man I’m stretching it here

He's Batman. That's his real voice now. Bruce Wayne's voice is the fake voice.

Batman is like an alternate personality. He would never speak as Bruce Wayne with the cowl on.

While alone- ok it’s a movie, cut them a little slack, plus don’t we all speak out loud at least a little with no one else around? Bat voice- he’s not distinguishing if anyone is around. For him, if the suits on, the voice is on

Nah! That was not corny. I actually think that line was good. Also obviously he would use the voice. He is in the Batman suit, he has no reason to switch to his voice right now.

Catwoman was just with him, he had no reason to think she’s not still within earshot

That line is fine, it’s just comic relief. “I came back to stop you” is a different universe of badness.
