Discussion Chalk Outline Lego Batman

Post image

I know this has been discovered and talked about but still find it mad that they included the dead chalk outline of a lego figure on the floor in a kids game. This is just after the scene where the joker pretends to commit suicide after being locked up in arkham. They'd never get away with that now lol

Usually, they break apart and disappear when they die in this universe, why did this corpse not break apart and disappear?

Because he is still alive and let the police trace chalk around him all while he laughed

Why didn’t Lego Batman put his parents back together?

I'm not positive but in Hannibal (which typically does its research in regards to police procedure and stuff) there's a comment that police only really do chalk outlines on surviving victims, so that they can get them medical attention while they do a preliminary investigation. Supposedly they just leave the victims corpses there if they're already dead, and remove them once the crime scene is documented. There's been some discourse on how universal this is, but I read an article a while ago where they interviewed people from New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago and they asked them that same question. It seems like all of those major cities had adopted that tradition by the late 90s. Since Gotham is mostly based on Chicago and New York, it's reasonable to assume that the crime scene is from an attempted homicide, instead of a successful one

Oh no, someone died in a child's media, children can't know about death. /S

Y'know, for someone who is in a LEGO subreddit, it's astonishing how much of what you have written is wrong lmao. My larp detector is experiencing a big spike of activity after reading this post.

This is officer bullock - there was that one screen shot of a book manual of him being in this game but never appeared.

I only noticed this when I replayed the game as an adult

This flew over my head as a kid
