Darker and Edgier | |
| Batman: Year One / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: The movie starts out with Gotham City at its worst with Gordon bemoaning even coming there with his wife due it being run by corrupt officials, crooked cops, and criminals polluting the streets. Gordon becoming a Rabid Cop who beats on crooked cops and cheats on his pregnant wife and Catwoman originally being a dangerous prostitute only affirms the point. | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
| Batman: Year One / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: The film expands or completely adds a few scenes and makes things the comic left subtle a bit more obvious. The biggest example is a scene demonstrating that the girl Bruce had over during the Gordons' visit was simply a cover working for $5000. | |

Vocal Evolution | |
| Batman: Year One / int_2ef005ab | comment |
Vocal Evolution: As noted in "Role Reprise" in the Trivia page, despite Jeff Bennett reprising the role of Alfred from Young Justice, his Alfred here sounds gruffer than his Alfred in YJ. | |

Adapted Out | |
| Batman: Year One / int_33d5b7f2 | comment |
Adapted Out: Branden's second in command, Pratt, is omitted, with Branden/Brendon taking his place as the one Batman punches through a wall. The movie also removes mentions of Loeb's resignation and his successor, Grogan. | |

The Hero's Journey: The film shows Bruce Wayne's first transition into becoming Batman with plenty of pitfalls and painful trial and error along the way. Get knifed by a teenage prostitute while trying to defend her from her abusive pimp for instance. | |

Bringing Running Shoes to a Car Chase: Bruce Wayne (not as Batman) chases a car on foot, going as far as to run on rooftops and jump down onto another truck. | |

Adaptation Personality Change | |
| Batman: Year One / int_6fbe85e6 | comment |
Adaptation Personality Change: In the comic, Lieutenant Branden is still an antagonist, but is a fascistic Rabid Cop who is used by the corrupt cops rather than directly aiding them (the closest he comes is smiling at Loeb blackmailing Gordon with the photo of his affair). In the film, he's explicitly shown to be corrupt himself, as he conspires with Loeb and Falcone to kidnap Gordon's family. | |

Adaptational Badass: Selina puts up considerably more of a fight against Bruce than she does in the comic, managing to fight him to a standstill, as opposed to going down with one hit. | |

"Basic Instinct" Legs-Crossing Parody | |
| Batman: Year One / int_afac9fcf | comment |
"Basic Instinct" Legs-Crossing Parody: When the Gordons are invited to Wayne Manor, Bruce (seen from his POV) pulls this on Barbara; from her revolted expression, he's not wearing anything under his robe. | |

Demoted to Extra | |
| Batman: Year One / int_b8e3f20a | comment |
Demoted to Extra: In the animated adaptation, Dent is only seen and mentioned once when Gordon investigates him on the belief he is Batman. In the comic, he was one of the main three that took down the corrupt network (aside from Batman and Gordon), but he was either not mentioned or his involvement was given to Gordon (such as the reason IA was going after Flass was Dent's doing in the comic, but Gordon's in the film, and the reason Skeeter was given parole was Dent's doing so Batman could interrogate him). This was most likely due to focus more on Gordon and Batman's beginnings. | |

Dirty Cop | |
| Batman: Year One / int_eb251937 | comment |
Dirty Cop: Gotham is run by these, with even the Commissioner being in the pocket of criminals. When Gordon tried to give some cops under his watch a lecture on ethics, the Commissioner had him beaten to near death. It really speaks volumes when the witnessing crowd gladly cheers when Batman beat up a SWAT team sent to kill him. | |

Plot-Irrelevant Villain: Catwoman. More like Anti-Villain since she's only trying to steal from the mob. Other than inconveniencing Batman one night, she has no impact on his or Gordon's story. | |
