The Batman Complex
This has blown my mind.
"It was only a matter of time before someone made this, but we're grateful it was done so well: A cinematic mashup of Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, Inception, The Prestige, The Machinist and Equilibrium. But YouTuber "themanbatman" has taken the fan-edit phenomenon to a new level, using clips from all those movies to suggest an all-new narrative where a man played by Christian Bale has been incepted by dream hacker Leonardo DiCaprio to believe he is a horrible creature known as The Batman. It's called The Batman Complex, and you can watch it below.
YouTube user themanbatman's editing skills are beyond those we usually see in fan-made remixes. In The Batman Complex, he assembles shots of Christian Bale from across his career that suggest a fairly clear storyline whereby his character is haunted by dreams of the Batman to the degree that he starts to question reality itself. The trailer makes it appear that the Inception crew has implanted this problem into Bale's head for some nefarious purpose, but that it may be backfiring in a way Leonardo DiCaprio's character didn't expect."
That looks fucking insane. I can't tell from the article, is this actually going to be a full-length thing, or just the trailer? Either way, very interesting idea and pretty cool execution!

Probably just a trailer, I have no idea how someone could ever edit together an entire film that way while maintaining a story and a believable flow, although that would be incredibly impressive haha

I could see them being able to create a 20 minute/half hour long movie out of clips like that, but a feature length film would be incredibly hard. That trailer is badass though

That was nonsensical and stupid and I am dumber for having watched it.
