The caped crusader can more accurately be distinguished as being more medieval (that is, consisting of character traits more attuned to medieval literature) in most of his filmic representations, such as Tim Burtonâ€™s Batman (1989), and such a connection does not completely stop with Nolanâ€™s most recent feature as even the filmâ€™s title outright labels its hero a â€œknight.â€ But despite this, Nolan has introduced the character of Batman to the world of cinema in a new way that displays him more as a western idol reminiscent of the days of John Wayne. American audiences gorged themselves on this newest version of the classic superhero, amassing a domestic box office revenue of over $530 million (second only to Titanicâ€™s $600 million+), and the reason for this may be found in the social structure of its viewers.]]></description>
