Prologue- Octopussy.
Bruce had not been born with the wisdom and knowledge he had now, but even so he regretted his youthful folly as when he was 16 after he left Zatarra and Zatanna for Japan but before studying there he decided to invest on his future public persona as a useless trust fund brat by producing, financing and starring in an ego trip of a movie that had all the makings of a colossal disaster.
Besides what was mentioned before the movie was a remake after another one that came out only several years ago in a beloved franchised and played by a fan favorite that had been going on for decades.
He also decided to go against what made the series successful.
His character was know for his witty remarks so he acted like a spoiled prima donna and refused to say any lines in the script and use only his facial expressions for the scene.
The character was also a trained assassins know for using an iconic handgun but Bruce refused to do so and instead his character used one of about 3 lines he said in the movie to explain that he did not use guns because it was not sporting that way as if being a top spy was a game.
Finally he portrayed the character who was an unabashed womanizer as someone who at the end of the movie proposed to the girl only for her to reject him since his reputation as a master liar and his notorious body count ( which in his version was just a paid lye by top brass) prevented him from getting married.
Worst of all he was a teenager portraying a character who in the past had always been a grown man.
All in all everything that could go wrong was done wrong and it turned into a smash hit!
The movie was a real life Springtime For Hitler and the combination of all made him into a breath of fresh air as literally over night Bruce Wayne became the hottest action stars alive.
That was how he found himself as now years latter
"Bruce Wayne is Batman!" Dr Hugo Strange said to him as Bruce in full gear and mask stood in front of him as Strange looked at him smug.
That was when Dick came along disguised as him and the ruse fell into place.
"I'm flattered but I play another dashing figure in the shadows." Bruce head Dick say as they went with the cover story of Bruce Wayne's being a close friend to a victim of Strange and more than happy to help.
"I loved you in the Living Daylights! Best so far"
"Don't be an idiot Joker, obviously A License to Kill is Mr Wayne's best movie."
"Best movie so far. Can't wait to see Goldeneye! Good luck with that Bruce!"
The Joker, Penguin and Two face said as Batman abstained from giving our a tired sigh as Dick disguised as him grinned.
"How did you think my performance was?" Dick asked smugly.
"You can take my place in Goldeneye any day now."
"Come now 007, stop this nonsense!" Dick said imitating the accent of the latest actor to portray Q in...how did this happen?
How did Bruce Wayne end up playing James Bond?
