In the 2018 movie, Batman gets caught in the temporal field of Gorilla Grodd's time machine and wakes up in feudal Japan without access to his computer or satellite-based weapons. He still has his Batmobile, which he uses to attack Joker, who's become a powerful warlord. The film highlights Batman's adaptability, showcasing his resourcefulness in a drastically different environment, and forces him to confront not just his foes, but also the essence of his own identity.
This creative take on Batman allows for an exploration of its characters in a broader cultural context, drawing on the rich traditions of both the samurai and ninja lore. It transforms Batman from a high-tech hero into one that must rely on martial prowess and strategy in a time long before advanced technology made its tools obsolete.
