+TeamLegoTJL Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 For anyone who saw The Dark Knight Rises, at the end, "Robin" is given coordinates for the entrance to the batcave and you see them for a second on a sheet of paper. Did anyone happen to catch the actual coordinates and if they did, can they provide them. Interested to see where they actually go to? Quote Link to comment

Wintertime Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 (edited) Last week I found a clip of the last couple minutes of the movie on YouTube and went looking on Google Maps for the coordinates. I don't think I wrote them down, but someone over on IMDb just said that the latitude was 34 08.227. I thought the ones in the movie were DDMMSS, though, not DDMM.MMM. Anyway, I recall that the first few digits of the longitude were hidden, but I played around with some possibilities, and my favorite result put the location pretty near the Hollywood sign in Los Angeles. Perhaps they are the coordinates for the original Batcave from the TV series; that would be very fun! I just saw the movie for the second time this weekend and have no plans to go back again in the immediate future, so if anyone sees it and can write down the visible coordinates, please let us know what they are! [edit] Okay, I found the clip. It's 34° 8' 22.77N; the only part visible of the longitude is 9' 18.1W. I don't see anything of potential interest at that latitude anywhere in the U.S. other than the Los Angeles area, so I'm still guessing that it's a (random?) location in the Hollywood Hills between Warner Bros. and the Hollywood Sign at 34° 8' 22.77N, 118° 19' 18.1W.

+fotimyr Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Who said they use the same datum in Gotham as we do? Actually, if take Gotham Geographic Survey's map grid, lay it over the one we normally use and convert the coordinates, the entry to the Batcave is the doors to the restrooms at Batman Airport in Turkey. Coincidence? I think not. Quote Link to comment

As I looked over different filming locations in batman history I came across the Bronson Canyon which is where they filmed the cave for the 1960s T.V. show. Those coordinates for the Canyon are 34° 7′ 22.33″ N, 118° 18′ 55.8″ W. Now if we subistute 38° 8′ 22.77″ N, for 34° 7′ 22.33″ N and 19' 18.1"W, for 18′ 55.8″ W. This puts us near the cave called "the west portal", and this location is where they filmed the entrance of the batcave for the 1960s T.V. show. Therefore I think Nolan is alluding to the T.V. show through the coordinates which most likely are 34° 8′ 22.77″ N, 118° 19′ 18.1″ W Quote Link to comment

OK, so now that the Dark Knight Rises came out on DVD the first week of December, I got it for Christmas and watched it last night. I agree there was a part where you first see the coordinates and the West Coordinates were cut off but the north can be seen. Now when he actually arrives at the location, you can see him flash the coordinates again and I was able to pause it just at the right second and made out the coordinates as 34 8 22.77N and 118 19 18.1W same as what you see here. That places it not far from the Hollywood sign. What's interesting is that this location is actually only 1.3 miles away from the Batcave geocache which is supposed to be where scenes from the original 60's TV show were shot (GC8413) Quote Link to comment

[edit] Okay, I found the clip. It's 34° 8' 22.77N; the only part visible of the longitude is 9' 18.1W. I don't see anything of potential interest at that latitude anywhere in the U.S. other than the Los Angeles area, so I'm still guessing that it's a (random?) location in the Hollywood Hills between Warner Bros. and the Hollywood Sign at 34° 8' 22.77N, 118° 19' 18.1W. OK, so now that the Dark Knight Rises came out on DVD the first week of December, I got it for Christmas and watched it last night. I agree there was a part where you first see the coordinates and the West Coordinates were cut off but the north can be seen. Now when he actually arrives at the location, you can see him flash the coordinates again and I was able to pause it just at the right second and made out the coordinates as 34 8 22.77N and 118 19 18.1W same as what you see here. That places it not far from the Hollywood sign. What's interesting is that this location is actually only 1.3 miles away from the Batcave geocache which is supposed to be where scenes from the original 60's TV show were shot (GC8413) Awesome! Thanks for sharing. Quote Link to comment
Mattyematt Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 The coordinates in the film are N38 53.876 W077 02.221. Right next to the Whitehouse. Well that's just plain wrong. Bat Cave is in Western NC. You just have to google it. Agreed Lots of nice caching around, too. http://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC45TT5_bat-bug-bungalow Quote Link to comment
+IggyNelix Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 From the movie: 34d 8'22.77N ??d 19'18.1W .. as all of the city shows of Gotham are NYC. i would put it along the same longitude/ in the same datum. image of Robin's coords For anyone who saw The Dark Knight Rises, at the end, "Robin" is given coordinates for the entrance to the batcave and you see them for a second on a sheet of paper. Did anyone happen to catch the actual coordinates and if they did, can they provide them. Interested to see where they actually go to? Quote Link to comment

Google maps with ??=: =78W (-78degrees) is outside Wilmington, NC =73degE (E not W) is Abbottabad, Pakistan. = Quote Link to comment
GrandPotentate Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Too bad that all of DC comics are placed in fictitious cities. Quote Link to comment
+DonB Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I make it a habit to jot down coordinates they give in movies just to see how accurate they are and some are pretty close and some are off a mile. There was one movie where they were having a problem with an airplane and for some reason the only place they could land was the dry LA river, so I jotted down their coordinates they gave them for the river and it would have put them about ten miles off the coast of LA.

+Harry Dolphin Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Too bad that all of DC comics are placed in fictitious cities. Gotham City is New York City. Gotham has always been a nickname for NYC. And it was very obvious from the early comic books. Quote Link to comment

Any parallels were drawn by NYC to boost tourism. For a detailed history of Gotham City check this out. Quote Link to comment
