That is totally different. Was it in this thread someone was talking about the basis of suspension of disbelief?

It isn't about how big the jumps in logic are, it is about them being consistent and believable within that world.

A man dressing up like a bat is borderline ######ed and insane. However, the motivations in Batman Begins, the reasons why he chose that costume, that vehicle, that identity, the batcave etc all make sense within the world of Batman.
