6. The MCU
Bear with me here. I’m not talking about the “Marvel Cinematic Universe” which, it turns out, also turns 15 years old this year since Iron Man came out a few weeks before The Dark Knight. No, I’m talking about the Major Crimes Unit, run by Jim Gordon (Gary Oldman) in the film. Nothing about it is particularly special overall but it just struck me as funny that it’s referred to as “the MCU” so many times in the movie. Just one of those fun, meaningless, little coincidences that make this movie look slightly different now.
