Quoted from V4Vendetta:batman forever for me. never understood why they even put that damn crane in the DK. Has nothing to do with the movie.
Because Scarecrow's name is Crane. Stern's TDK strikes me as something designed by someone who had no familiarity with the characters or films, and was just given a list of character names and some basic art assets. The theme integration is pretty terrible, the Joker figure is off-spec, the art is uninspired.
The Batman Forever game at least looks like it was inspired from the film, for better or worse.
