One of the strangest scenes in 1989's Batman-the Batwing's weapons all missing Joker-has a legitimate explanation, but it never had to make sense.

Not really. It jarred with me at the time and still does.

I just always assumed Batman lined his shot up ready to kill The Joker and then changed his mind because he wanted to actually face him over his parents murder. So he just fired in anger near him instead.

I'll take that.
