Romantic Superhero Mashup Trailers

This Dark Knight Spoof Imagines Batman as a Romantic Comedy

— December 12, 2012 — Pop Culture
From Martin Comedy comes this Dark Knight spoof presenting Batman as a romantic comedy.

Martin Comedy has recently made a few of these genre-bending spoof mashups. The two videos they produced prior to this Dark Knight spoof presented the epic, mythical story lines of Game of Thrones in the context of Seinfeld episodes. They were equipped with laugh tracks, graphics and the signature Seinfeld introduction music.

This time around, Martin Comedy does a brilliant job editing pieces of The Dark Knight to create a narrative more like a romantic comedy than an action, adventure, superhero movie.

While this mashup is absurd in some ways, it does point to the realization that most movies involving heroes do involve a love interest that drives them. In this Dark Knight spoof we get the picture loud and clear.
