Comic-Book Fantasy Casting | |
| Son of Batman / int_11bc87bc | comment |
Comic-Book Fantasy Casting: Thomas Gibson seems to be channeling Ron Perlman as Deathstroke. Which actually isn't that fantastic, as Perlman did voice Slade, the Teen Titans (2003) version of the character. | |

Gatling Good: During the assault on Nanda Parbat, Talia takes the handcrank of a Gatling gun that fires arrows. Cool as it is, you'd think a modern Gatling gun would have done more damage. | |

Bloodier and Gorier | |

Bloodier and Gorier: Mooks are routinely killed in bloody ways, Damian is stabbed through both arms and gets one broken, and others are bloodied and bruised through various beatings. Fitting, as Justice League: War didn't shy away from this kind of violence, either, even if aliens were the primary victims of it. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
| Son of Batman / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: Ubu, who is usually portrayed as a loyal servant to Ra's al Ghul, here betrays him and works with Deathstroke. We never find out why. Then again, as there have been multiple Ubus, maybe it's just one who isn't loyal.note In the comics, Bane once served as Ubu for a while, and he was definitely looking to bump Ra's off. | |

Mythology Gag: The Batmobile's design heavily resembles the one from Batman: The Brave and the Bold.

Out of Character | |
| Son of Batman / int_379b8809 | comment |
Out of Character: A Downplayed Trope example. The Slade Wilson of the movie is certainly as skilled as the normal Deathstroke (albeit not to superhuman levels), intelligent, and cunning. He's also the kind of person who Ra's Al Ghul would look for in order to lead the League of Assassins. However, the comic Deathstroke is a Noble Demon who Would Not Hurt A Child and considers families sacrosanct. Not so much with movie Deathstroke. | |

"Not If They Enjoyed It" Rationalization: It's all but stated that Batman only slept with Talia because she drugged him and "it made him do what she wanted". Despite the circumstances, Batman admits the sexual experience wasn't so bad. This is different from the comics, where Batman is understandably outraged. | |

Would Hurt a Child | |
| Son of Batman / int_479d4e5a | comment |
Would Hurt a Child: Deathstroke has no problem killing Damian, partly because of the kid taking out his eye and partly because Damian was made heir to the League of Assassins when he was previously favored for it. Slade also has no problem threatening the life of Rebecca Langstrom if it means her father does his work better and faster. Ubu, when it's a child of his former master. | |

The Resenter | |
| Son of Batman / int_483152c4 | comment |
The Resenter: Slade's primary motivation stems from his resentment over the fact that he was passed over when Ra's found Batman. Had Batman never come into the picture, Slade would've been Ra's chosen successor and (according to his words) would've married Talia, meaning Damian would've been his son. He passes this resentment onto Damian because the inheritance passed to him after Bruce declined instead of back to Slade. Damian gouging out his eye with a sword certainly didn't help things. | |

What Measure Is a Non-Human?: The Man-Bats don't seem to be covered by the Thou Shalt Not Kill rule. Batman takes no issue with Damian using a sword on them, and he himself crushes many of them with falling debris set off by explosives. This is despite the fact that they can easily be changed back into humans once Langstrom creates a Magic Antidote. | |

Adaptational Jerkass: In the comics, Nightwing is open to Damian becoming Robin and gladly supports and guides him even before he got the mantle. Here he's a rather standoffish jerk who would prefer to avoid Damian if at all possible and is vehemently opposed to Damian becoming Robin. Damian didn't exactly make the best first impression, though, so his attitude is understandable. | |

Killed Off for Real: Ra's al Ghul is permanently killed by Deathstroke, who lures him into single combat then has his men launch a missile at their location.

Muscles Are Meaningless: Ubu is a heavy construction vehicle in the form of a man. Damian is a preteen boy. Damian not only wins the fight, but is able to hold a blade lock with Ubu despite being maybe a quarter of his size. The same with Damian against Deathstroke, which would be amazing if Deathstroke had his enhancements (in the comics, both Damian and Deathstroke have enhanced strength, which isn't established here). | |

Adaptational Wimp | |
| Son of Batman / int_d500b978 | comment |
Adaptational Wimp: Slade Wilson, a.k.a. Deathstroke, compared with his comics' counterpart and another incarnations. He's an even match for Damian; against Batman he doesn't score a single hit. Talia isn't quite as tough either. She gets taken out by Deathstroke almost immediately when she invades his stronghold. | |

Male Gaze | |
| Son of Batman / int_dfb71617 | comment |
Male Gaze: When Talia is bound in chains, she makes an... "interesting" pose, and the camera pans so we can see it. | |

Absurdly Sharp Blade | |
| Son of Batman / int_e0c00a95 | comment |
Absurdly Sharp Blade: During the attack on the League of Assassins, Talia manages to fire an arrow clean through a helicopter's armor and kill the pilot. Later on, using a gatling-style automatic crossbow, she shoots down another helicopter. Swords are also routinely shown to cut (and in one case, stab through) just about anything but each other. | |

Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique | |
| Son of Batman / int_e154ff08 | comment |
Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique: Batman rips off Killer Croc's tail while interrogating him, then switches tactics by offering to give him pain killers since the Arkham staff are too terrified of Croc to do it themselves. Deconstructed with Damian. He tries to do this to Dr. Langstrom, but just winds up alerting Deathstroke's men and starting a huge brawl. | |

Composite Character | |
| Son of Batman / int_e4965307 | comment |
Composite Character: Due to Tim Drake's absence in the movie, Nightwing fills in for him as the main target of Damian's insults. Deathstroke, being given Talia's Big Bad status from the original comic book story arc, also gets a chunk of her original role. | |

Jerkass | |
| Son of Batman / int_eb8ec7c8 | comment |
Jerkass: Damian, full stop, though near exclusively to Nightwing. Aside from trying to kill him when they first met, Damian insults his former Robin costume as "effeminate" and tells him to remember who the blood son is. | |

Last-Second Word Swap: When Lt. Gordon begins to identify the phone sex hotline number, he realizes he's in front of Damian and changes it to "chat". | |

Undying Loyalty | |
| Son of Batman / int_f16da697 | comment |
Ubu's only characterization is Undying Loyalty and being The Brute in the comics. So, one may argue this since he's a traitor. But hen again, as pointed out, there's been more than one "Ubu" in the comics... | |

Brick Joke | |
| Son of Batman / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: Nightwing's fight with Damian happens offscreen. When the credits roll, a few stills are shown from it. At the end of the movie, Damian still wants to drive the Batmobile and his father still refuses. Also counts for the next movie which starts with Damian stealing the Batmobile off dad. | |
