'''''Batman''''' was released in [[United States|U.S.]] theaters on [[June 23]], [[1989]] by [[Warner Bros.]] and soon became the highest grossing [[film|movie]] of the year. It was directed by [[Tim Burton]] and starred [[Jack Nicholson]] as the [[Joker (comics)#The 1989 film|Joker]], [[Michael Keaton]] as [[Batman]], and [[Kim Basinger]] as reporter [[Vicki Vale]]. Although Keaton played the nominal hero of the film, Nicholson received top billing.
'''''Sid Meier's Civilization III''''' is a turn-based strategy [[computer game]] by [[Firaxis Games]], the sequel to ''[[Civilization II|Sid Meier's Civilization II]]''. Also called "Civ 3" for short, the game is the third generation of the original ''[[Civilization (computer game)|Civilization]]''. The game offers highly evolved gameplay in terms of both mechanics and strategy. Unlike the previous versions of the game, Civ III was not designed by [[Sid Meier]], but by [[Jeff Briggs]], a [[game designer]], and [[Soren Johnson]], a [[game programmer]].
 
This movie helped usher a return to the "dark" roots of the Batman of the original [[comic book|comics]] and away from the [[camp]]y [[1960s]] [[Batman (1960s TV series)|''Batman'' television series]] and cartoon ''[[Super Friends]]''. Like many film versions of comic book heroes, the ''Batman'' movie told its own version of his origin, and how [[Joker (comics)|The Joker]] figured in that origin.
''Civilization III'', like the other ''Civilization'' games, is based around building an empire, from the ground up, beginning in prehistoric times and continuing through the modern day. Your civilization is centered around a core of cities, which provide the resources necessary to grow your cities, construct city improvements, wonders, and units, and advance your technological development. You must balance a good infrastructure, resources, diplomatic and trading skills, technological advancement, city and empire management, culture, and military power to succeed.
 
Many people who recognized Batman from the 1960s television series reprehended the film for being too solemn and humorless; however, it should be noted that the character's original tone was serious-minded and not comedic or mirthful. Another complaint, one that long plagued the Batman films made between 1989 and 1997, was that the films tended to focus too much on the villain and not enough on Batman himself.
==Gameplay==
 
Numerous comic book fans were displeased to learn that Michael Keaton (who was better known for his comedic roles at the time) was cast as the title character, and assumed that it was a sure sign of the production taking the same tone of the 1960s television series. The producers hurriedly released a [[teaser trailer]] to prove they were treating the character faithfully. The marketing move was successful and since the film's successful release, many fans consider Keaton as one of the best actors to have played Batman in a live-action film, along with [[Christian Bale]] of [[2005 in film|2005]]'s ''[[Batman Begins]]''.
===Empire management===
 
The minor-key score was written by [[Danny Elfman]], with songs by [[Prince (artist)|Prince]]. Two animated series (''[[Batman: The Animated Series]]'' and ''[[The Adventures of Batman and Robin]]'') were created in the wake of the film's success, and three sequels --''[[Batman Returns]]'' (1992), ''[[Batman Forever]]'' (1995), and ''[[Batman and Robin]]'' (1997)-- were produced. ''[[Batman: Mask of the Phantasm]]'' a spin-off of the animated television series, was released in 1993. ''[[Batman Begins]]'', a successful restart of the saga (but often mistakenly called a [[prequel]]), was released in 2005. A new 2 disc special edition of the first four films will be released on Tuesday, October 18, 2005. All movies include commentary along with other special features.
The game focuses around a core of cities that provide the necessary prodution to advance your empire. The cities contain a certain number of citizens that draw production from the surrounding land. Shields are used to build improvements, units, and wonders. Food is used to grow your cities. Each citizen requires two food per turn to survive, and excess food is stored in the [[granary|granaries]]. Once the [[granary|granaries]] fills up, it is emptied and the city gains a citizen. Commerce is used to allocate money to your treasury. You can take a certain percentage of your money and allocate it to scientific research or to the happiness of your citizens. Your citizens have a certain mood (happy, content, unhappy, or resisting). If you have more unhappy than happy citizens, the city falls into civil disorder. All production ceases and no food is stored when a city is in civil disorder, and if a city remains in civil disorder for too long, improvements may be destroyed. Any commerce that does not go into scientific research or your happiness slider is placed in your treasury. The worker unit is used to improve the land. Mines increase shield production, irrigation increases food, and roads increase commerce, in addition to tripling movement speed of nearly all allied land units using them. Later in the game you can build railroads, which provide instantaneous movement for all allied land units.
 
==Plot summary==
===Scientific research===
{{spoiler}}
Another major feature of gameplay is scientific research. The technology tree is divided into four ages (Ancient Age, Middle Ages, Industrial Age, and Modern Age) and each age requires that you research specific technologies to advance to the next age. There are several technologies that are not required to advance to the next age, although they provide useful bonuses that are often essential for good empire management, or may provide different alternatives to empire management. A science slider is used to allocate money away from your treasury and into scientific research, and can be set at 10% intervals. City improvements such as libraries, universities, and research labs also increase scientific advancement, as do some wonders (such as Newton's University).
[[Image:Jokermovie.jpg|thumb|left|[[The Joker (comics)|The Joker]], played by [[Jack Nicholson]].]]The main story of the movie is that of Jack Napier, an arrogant hitman working for [[Carl Grissom|Boss Carl Grissom]], and who years before, killed Thomas and Martha Wayne, the wealthy parents of Bruce Wayne. Grissom assigns Napier to break into Axis Chemicals to destroy legally incriminating files, but it turns out to be a set-up. Out of jealousy of Napier's affair with his girlfriend, Grissom hires the corrupt [[Lt. Max Eckhardt]] of the [[Gotham City Police Department]] to kill Napier.
 
Napier kills Eckhardt, but Batman has learned of the break-in and confronts Napier, who winds up falling on the edge of a catwalk over a vat of chemicals. When his hand slips from Batman's, he falls into the vat. The chemicals ingrain him with permanent grotesque features, which changes his appearance to that resembling a clown. Naming himself [[Joker (comics)#The 1989 film|The Joker]], he tracks down and murders Grissom and takes over the criminal gang. The violent takeover attracts the attention of both Batman and newspaper reporter [[Alexander Knox (Batman)|Alexander Knox]] and photographer [[Vicki Vale]]. The rest of the film involves Batman trying to stop the Joker, [[Bob the Goon]] and their henchmen from terrorizing the city with shootouts, assassinations, and a deadly chemical which poisons its victims with uncontrollable laughter that eventually leads to death.

== Response and legacy==
===Culture===
[[Image:Civ3.jpg|right|thumb|240px|In this screenshot, it is early in the game, so only a relatively small portion of the world has been discovered, as can be seen by the mini-map in the lower left-hand corner.]]
Culture is a new feature to Civ III that didn't exist in previous versions of Civilization. Each city in ''Civilization III'' has a cultural rating, which is the city's influence over local terrain. Essentially, the culture's outer edge, or "border", acts as the boundry of your empire. When a city is created it has a culture rating of 1, which allows influence over the closest 8 squares only (a sphere of influence 1 square in radius). As the city's culture rating increases, so does its sphere of influence, bringing more territory under the player's control.
 
''Batman'' was ''the'' most successful movie of 1989, earning $251,188,924 domestically and over $160 million abroad. As a result, the movie spawned all sorts of merchandise: action figures, t-shirts, beach towels, trading cards and even a cereal. The movie received mostly positive reviews, with [[Erik Preminger]] of [[San Francisco, California|San Francisco]]'s [[KGO-TV]] hailing it as ''"the movie of the decade"''. [[Jack Nicholson]] was widely praised as ruthless thug Jack Napier and the even more ruthless Joker, while [[Michael Keaton]] won over many viewers with his portrayal of a conflicted Bruce Wayne and Batman. [[Danny Elfman]]'s score received positive feedback, leading to nominations in various institutions (although not for an [[Academy Award]]). The film was criticized, though, for its dark, grisly nature in comparison with the campy 1960s TV show, and for a [[Prince (artist)|Prince]]-dominated soundtrack which was seen as an obvious marketing tie-in. While applauded for its efforts to return to the staid nature of the character, the movie was attacked by many comic book purists who claimed that the film took too many elective liberties with the original character's established backstory and ideals, most notably in Batman's lethal tactics in the film.
In addition to influencing territorial borders, culture serves two other purposes. One is allowing the peaceful takeover of nearby foreign cities by influencing its citizens through your culture. Conquest through culture is preferable to military conquest due to the fact that it does not lower your reputation in the global community. In addition, a civilization can win the game by having a very strong culture total.
 
==Trivia==
Culture is increased turn-by-turn based on what city improvements and wonders, such as a Temple or the Hanging Gardens, have been built in that city.
 
Adam West (the star of the TV series "Batman" (1966/II))wanted to play Batman, but Michael Keaton was given the role after getting the nod from Bob Kane, the creator of the original Batman comic strip.
===Civilizations===
 
Every civilization starts with certain special abilities. Every civilization has two traits that give them bonuses that help in the corresponding area of gameplay. This also determines what two technologies you begin the game with. Also, Civilization qualites determine different abilities that a civ has. For example, a militaristic civ's units gain combat experience faster. Each civ also has a special unit that was specific to that civilization in history.
 
Sean Young was originally cast as Vicki Vale, but broke her collarbone while filming a horse-riding scene with Michael Keaton. The scene was subsequently written out of the script.

Michael Keaton worked out for two months to prepare for the role, and learned kickboxing from his stunt double, David Lea. Keaton performed most of the fights himself, and one of the few scenes in which Lea stood in for him is during the fight in the alley with the swordsman.

===Wonders===
As in ''Civilization II'', there are Great Wonders that can each be built only once during the entire game for just one civilization. They usually provide a major benefit to the player's entire empire. ''Civilization III'' also added Small Wonders, which can be built once by every civilization. Small Wonders have, for the most part, a sociological requirement to construct them, as well as a technological requirement. Battlefield Medicine, for example, requires that five of the player's cities have [[hospital]]s before building. With each new technology discovered you gain the opportunity to build wonders. In each different age there are different wonders availible. Below is a list of those wonders sorted by age (Ancient, Middle Ages, Industrial, and Modern).
 
Director Tim Burton and Michael Keaton did a lot of re-writing during production. The most notable re-write is the opening scene in which Batman says, "I'm Batman." In the script Batman was to reply "I am the night." The other notable re-write is the showdown between Batman and the Joker.

The first draft of this movie was written in 1980 by Superman (1978) co-writer Tom Mankiewicz and told the story of Batman's and Robin's origins. The villains were The Joker and The Penguin, and Rupert Thorne and Barbara Gordon were also to appear. At the end Robin was to appear in costume (much like Batman Forever (1995)). It was going to be released in 1985 with a budget of $20 million, but with producers Michael E. Uslan and Benjamin Melniker booted off the production, the project was shelved until Jon Peters and Peter Guber picked it up. In 1985, after the surprise success of Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985), the studio offered the job to Tim Burton. Unsatisfied with the Mankiewicz script, Burton and his then girlfriend Julie Hickson wrote a 30-page treatment of the project. This treatment was approved by both the producers and studio. In 1986 Burton met Sam Hamm, who had just received a two-year contract with WB, and gave him the job of writing a screenplay based on Burton's and Hickson's treatment. However, the writing process stretched too long and Hamm couldn't write further drafts of the script because of the writers strike. In his place, Burton got Beetle Juice (1988) co-writer Warren Skaaren to continue writing. Nearly three years after working on the project Burton didn't get the film greenlit until the box-office result of "Beetle Juice". "Batman" began filming in October and it only took 12 weeks to shoot.

It made an estimated additional $750 million in merchandising alone.
===Ethnicity===
Every citizen has a ethnic background that is controlled by the culture system. Each citizen has a cultural 'memory', so that they will consider themselves ethnic members of the previous civilization until they are assimilated into their new occupying civilization.
 
For example, if Persia captures a city from America, its citizens, although under Persian control, are still American, until they are assimilated into Persia culture, which will take several turns, with their chance of assimilation depending on Persia's government.
 
Executive producers Benjamin Melniker and Michael E. Uslan sued Warner Brothers for forcing them into accepting a net profit agreement rather than the gross profit one that was set up for other parties like Jack Nicholson. Warners then claimed that, although "Batman" at the time was the 5th biggest grossing film ever, it was still technically in the red, and offered the two producers a $1 million out-of-court settlement. They naturally rejected this.
Foreign citizens become unhappy if their ruling country is at war with their country of birth. This gives recently-captured cities a high potential for rebellion. Otherwise, however, they are equally productive citizens.
 
===Combat===
Combat is an important aspect of the game, and, although not required to win, it is nearly impossible to go through a full game without experiencing warfare at least once. Each unit begins as a "regular", with 3 [[hit point]]s. A unit can gain experience through battles. Above regular is "veteran", with 4 hit points, then "elite", with 5 hit points. If you have a barracks (or harbor for naval units and airport for air units) in a city, it will produce veterans instead of regulars. Gaining a warrior from a barbarian hut or through the draft will produce a "conscript", which has just 2 hit points. Each unit has an attack and defense value that determines, in theory, how well it will do against another unit, although ultimately a [[random number generator]] (RNG) determines the outcome, so it is therefore possible for an Ancient Age unit, such as a spearman, to win against a much more powerful unit, such as a tank. Certain terrain, as well as large cities, defending across a river, and fortifying the unit, provide defensive bonuses. (eg, a mountain has a 100% defensive bonus, so a unit with 3 defense will have 6 when defending on a mountain). Each civilization has their own special unit that replaces and improves on an existing unit.
 
Ricky Addison Reed was cast as Robin when the character was part of an earlier story treatment. Robin was eventually dropped, and Reed lost the role.
Another important aspect of combat is bombardment, which can be done by [[artillery]] (catapult, cannon, artillery, radar artillery, and, in Conquests, trebuchet), air units, and more advanced naval units (destroyer, battleship, etc). Bombardment will soften a target before you attack it, and, if attacking a city, may kill some of the population or destroy certain city improvements. Despite this, only certain units have the ability to kill other units through bombardment (known as "lethal bombardment").
 
When an elite unit wins a battle against an enemy unit, there is a chance that it will produce a Great Leader. A Great Leader then has the ability to create an Army. An Army has the ability to "load" up to three units (four if you've built The Pentagon). An Army fights as one unit, combining hit points. Once you have garrisoned the units in the Army, however, you can not remove or upgrade them, and they do not gain battle experience. (However, this was changed in Conquests; each seperate unit now gains battle experience).
 
The plastic surgeon's weird surgical tools are originally from another Warner Brothers production, Little Shop of Horrors (1986). They were the dentist tools owned by Orin Scrivello.
===Resources===
 
In ''Civilization III'', there are three types of resources. Each type of resource can be found only on certain types of terrain and can provide a bonus to shields, food, or commerce if found within the city radius and worked by a citizen. Bonus resources exist specifically for this purpose, while luxury and strategic resources provide other benefits as well. Luxuries and strategic resources may be traded, while bonus resources may not.
 
The Batman costume weighed 70 lbs.

|-
|[[Gold]]||hills, mountains||4 commerce
|-
|[[Whale]]s||sea||1 food, 1 shield, 2 commerce
|-
|[[Wheat]]||flood plains, grasslands, plains||2 food
|}
 
Luxury resources make your people happier when they are brought into a city via a road or railroad. Each luxury makes at least one content citizen happy. The effects of luxuries do not stack. For example, if you have two wines connected, only one will provide a bonus; the other would be available for trading. Building a marketplace greatly increases the effect of luxuries on that city beyond the second luxury. Keeping citizens happy is important lest the city fall into civil disorder.
 
The Batman symbol on the costume in this film is slightly different than the version seen in the comic books. It has two extra "points" on the bottom of the black bat emblem. However, the teaser poster and other such promotional materials for the film depict the logo just as it appears in the comics, for copyright purposes (because that specific look for the logo is what DC comics had copyrighted). The Batman costume was slightly modified for Batman Returns (1992) and sported the comic version of the symbol.

[[Image:Civ3 Screenshot City StrategicRes1.png|frame|right|The city overview screen lists the strategic resources which can be used for unit production. From the image above, we can see this city has access to all possible strategic resources.]]
Strategic resources are resources required to train certain units, or construct certain city improvements or wonders. A certain technology is required to unlock these resources, and are often necessary for good empire management. Perhaps the most important resource is iron, which is useful from the moment it first appears on the map until the end, as it is a prerequisite for constructing railroads along with coal. Like luxuries, strategic resources do not stack.
 
At one point during pre-production, director Tim Burton wanted to turn Frank Miller's 1986 comic "The Dark Knight Returns" into the new movie. However, Warner Bros. wanted to introduce the "dark" Batman before having a movie about his last days as a crime fighter. Not to mention that a DKR movie would be about four hours long.

===Corruption===
Though corruption existed in ''Civilization I'' and ''II'', it has been made much more severe in ''Civilization III''. In addition to the commerce-decreasing corruption, Civilization III includes ''waste'', which decreases a city's productivity. The productivity of a city is measured in 'shields'. Shields are converted into units or structures, with each unit or structure costing a certain number of shields. Shields can have two colors: blue or red. The blue shields represent actual production, while red ones represent production lost to waste. In general, the farther a city is from the capital, the greater the waste will be. It is not uncommon for far-flung cities to have red shields that far outnumber the blue. The levels of corruption and waste are also dependent on the [[system of government]] of a civilization. Uniquely, in the communist system, corruption and waste are spread equally amongst all cities.
 
Corto Maltese (where Vicki had been taking pictures) is the name of a popular European comic character, starring in the adventure comic books of Italian Hugo Pratt.
There are a number of ways to combat corruption. These include building city improvements such as the [[courthouse]] and the [[police station]]. Connecting a city to the capital through a valid trade route (e.g. roads, a harbor or an airport) also helps to reduce corruption to a certain degree. There are also two small wonders that can be built that reduce corruption. They are the [[Forbidden City|Forbidden palace]] and the [[Secret police]]. They eliminate virtually all of the corruption in their host city. Originally these wonders functioned as second palaces in the cities in which they were built, but subsequent patches removed their function as a second pole for corruption, and merely made them reduce overall corruption in every city. Corruption will never reduce shield production to zero, but one shield per turn is virtually useless.
 
===Victory Conditions===
There are several basic ways to win the game, some of which recur from the previous Civilization games. A player needs to meet only one of the victory conditions to win a game. They can each be enabled or disabled when setting the Game Rules at the beginning of a new game. In Conquests, a Victory Status screen was added to allow a player to see how much more is needed to achieve each of the victory conditions, as well as the progress of the closest rival in regards to each particular victory path. Play the World and Conquests each introduced short game modes, which allow for more faster paced games, and specific scenarios each have their own victory requirements. The victory conditions for the base game, however, are as follows:
 
Heavy security surrounded The Joker's makeup.
====Conquest====
One of the most straightforward of the victory conditions, a Conquest victory is achieved when no civilizations besides the player's exist, a civilization being eliminated when its last city is captured or destroyed. Despite the simplicity of concept, Conquest can be difficult to achieve as other civilizations will, naturally, resist and act against the player's endeavor's towards this goal.
 
====Domination====
A player wins a Domination victory by controlling two thirds of the world's land and population. 66% of the world must be within the civilization's cultural borders, and 66% of the world's people must be within the civilization's cities. Exactly how the player acheives these two conditions is irrelevant and largely open-ended; A civilization could build a strong culture to gain land peaceably, conquer other civilizations' cities, launch nuclear attacks to annihilate opponents' populations, or any combination of the three and more.
 
The throne that the Joker sits on when he spreads money over the citizens of Gotham is a copy of the "Silver Throne", the Royal Throne of Sweden which the King of Sweden used until 1974 at the opening of the Swedish Parliament. The replica was made for the film Queen Christina (1933).
====Cultural====
By having a culture so powerful that its civilization controls the world through others' longing to be a part of it, a player can win a Cultural victory. The Cultural victory is achieved when either one city the player controls has 20,000 or more culture points, or if the entire civilization meets a certain threshold (100,000 on a Standard map.)
 
====Diplomatic====
By building the United Nations wonder, a civilization opens the possibility of a Diplomatic victory. The civilization that built it will be periodically offered the opportunity to hold elections for U.N. Secretary General. To be eligible for election, a civilization must control either 25% of the world's population or territory, although the civ that actually built the UN is always automatically a candidate. If there are no qualified candidates other than the one who built the UN, the civilization with the next highest population is put on the ballot. The most votes wins the election, and therefore game. Because the player's reputation matters a great deal to voting AI civilizations, it is of paramount importance to a player seeking a Diplomatic victory to maintain a trustworthy status throughout the game.
 
Tim Curry was an original choice to play the Joker.
====Spaceship====
Just as in the previous two games, a civilization not seeking domination through world conquest can build and send a colony [[spaceship]] to [[Alpha Centauri]] to win the game. Unlike the previous two games, however, the player does not decide how many of several different types of components to build, but rather, builds ten specific spaceship parts ranging from Thrusters to the Stasis Chamber to the Interplanetary Party Lounge. The parts may be built in any order the player desires.
 
Furthermore, while the previous games had incorporated elements of speed and survival chance (a player could build fewer parts and thus launch sooner, although at increased risk of it not making it to Alpha Centauri), the game is won immediately once the colony ship is launched, the ultimate success of the colony either being assumed or irrelevant.
 
Ray Liotta was reportedly Tim Burton's first choice for the Joker, and then for the character of Harvey Dent (later to become Two Face), but he turned down both due to his commitment to make Goodfellas (1990).
====Histograph====
The histograph provides a relative indicator of each civilization's score, power, and culture at any given time. When the game timer runs out (at the year [[2050]] AD by default, although this can be changed in ''Play The World'') if no civilization has met any of the other victory conditions, each civilization's score at the end of each of the time periods (Ancient, Middle, Industrial, and Modern) is summed and then averaged. The highest final score wins the game.
 
==Reception==
 
Robin Williams was considered for the role of The Joker; he would later be considered for The Riddler as well. Jack Nicholson got the role of The Joker but demanded top-billing and a lucrative deal that gave him royalties on all merchandise.
Magazines, reviewers, and strategy game fans consistently hail Civilization III as one of the best strategy games ever made. Rich in accurate historical, diplomatic, military and socioeconomic elements, Civilization III is as educational as it is entertaining. It features an in-game encyclopedia (the 'Civilopedia'), and is often utilized as a supplemental learning tool in high school and college history classes. The entire Civilization series (including the first two versions) is one of the best-selling strategy game series of all time.
 
With the popular success of ''[[Civilization II]]'' fans had high expectations. Borrowing features from ''[[Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri]]'' and the ''[[Civilization: Call To Power]]'' series, it had other innovative features such as strategic resources that could be monopolized, adding another twist to gameplay. The game is subject to a never-ending series of changes, leading users to be very demanding. The developers have publicly mentioned that fan input plays a strong role in development of new features.
 
Billy Dee Williams appears as Harvey Dent, who in the comics became Two-Face. Williams took the role with the expectation that he would be brought back to play Two-Face and reportedly had a contract clause added reserving the role for him. During casting for Batman Forever (1995) Warner Bros. decided they would prefer Tommy Lee Jones and bought out Williams' contract.
The initial release of the game had some [[computer bug|bug]]s and glitches. Some players complained that gameplay was poor for various reasons. Some criticized ''Civilization III'' for its lack of features found in other ''Civilization''-like games, most notably ''[[Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri]]'' (SMAC). Some of the features that SMAC had but were not carried forward included elevation, a working UN system, a [[Social engineering (political science)|social engineering]] system and a 'group movement' command to simplify managing units on the map. Others were upset by underpowered features, such as the game editor, which could not be used to create customized* scenarios, something that was possible in ''Civ II''. Another serious concern regarded the new corruption system, which rendered cities far away from the capital almost useless. Many players who were used to dominating the game by creating massive empires called the corruption penalties too harsh. Others saw them as a good way to increase the game's difficulty, to make the game both more challenging, and realistic for players with far-flung empires.
 
The first [[patch (computing)|patch]] came very soon after its initial release and other patches were released subsequently, improving gameplay significantly. The patches also managed to add in certain features, such as the aforementioned group movement command.
 
It is claimed that Adam West was offered a cameo as Bruce Wayne's father but turned it down, though West denies being offered the part.
The ''Play the World'' expansion included many features fans wished to have included in the original game, including multiplayer gaming and new gaming scenarios. The multiplayer mode had significant problems and most users were never able to get it to work without the later patch released for it. Most complaints about features that were added later, however, are countered by the fact that including all the bug fixes and features that were included later would mean the game's release would be delayed by months, if not years. ''Civ III'', like many games, exemplifies the dilemma of game developers who must balance an early release of the game with a more polished product.
 
The ''Conquests'' expansion contains everything found in ''Play the World'', but adds a few more new civilizations, gameplay elements, units, editor functions and scenarios.
 
This was the first film to ever get a "12" rating in Great Britain. The rating was created to prevent young children from seeing the film. It had been in place up until 2002, where it was updated to "12A" for the live-action Spider-Man (2002) movie.
Overall, the reaction to ''Civilization III'' has been positive. It has won many "Game of the Year" and "Strategy Game of the Year" awards and continues to win new fans.
 
==Expansions==
 
Corto Maltese is also an island country in Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns, one of Burton's inspirations for Batman.
Two expansion sets have been published for ''Civilization III''. These are ''[[Civilization III Play the World|Play the World]]'' and ''[[Civilization III Conquests|Conquests]]''. Play the World adds [[multiplayer]] capabilities, and it adds eight new civilizations and some new units to the original release. Conquests offers eight historical playable scenarios, ranging from [[Mesopotamia]] to [[World War II|WWII]] in the [[Pacific Ocean|Pacific]]. Many of these scenarios have resources, improvements, wonders, music, and even government types that are specific to the scenario, especially the [[Mesoamerica]]n and [[Sengoku period|Sengoku]] [[Japan]] campaigns.
 
==Mods==
Some fans turned to so-called "[[Mod (computer gaming)|mods]]" ("'''mod'''ifications" of the original game), to add features they would have liked to see in the original release. A popular one is the ''Double Your Pleasure'' mod (DYP), which doubles nearly all elements of the original game in quantity: technologies, civilizations, units. Several themed mods have sprung up, focussing on one period of time or fiction, such as ''The Ancient Mediterranean'' mod (TAM). Since the ''Play the World'' expansion, mods can be installed without actually modifying the original game. Fan websites such as Civfanatics, Apolyton, Civ3 Maps and Mods*, or CDGroup offer the platform for developing and distributing mods in a way that few games have seen to date.
*Civ 3 maps and mods also have a "units" section which lets you submit or download units you or other people have created.
 
Kim Basinger is only a few inches shorter than Michael Keaton. To make Keaton appear taller, she wears flat heels or is in stocking feet in all the scenes in which they are standing next to each other.
==Trivia==
*The menu screen is based on the [[Tower of Babel]].
*A city in the Viking city list, 'Thunderfall', is actually the username of the administrator of the Civilization Fanatics Center. 'Mingapulco' in the Aztec city list is a tribute to an important moderator and member of the Apolyton Civilization Site. Similarly, 'Apolyton' in the list of Greek cities is a reference to the Apolyton site itself.

According to a Playboy interview with Robin Williams, Jack Nicholson was the offered the role of Joker first. When Nicholson kept delaying his answer, Williams was offered the role. The producers immediately turned around and informed Nicholson that Williams was considering the offer, and Nicholson accepted. Williams has remained bitter about being "used as bait". See trivia for Batman Forever (1995).
 
 
For its first video release, the film was graded slightly lighter as cinema audiences had complained that it was filmed so darkly that they could hardly see what was going on.
 
 
Anton Furst's designs for Gotham City were incorporated into the comics during the early '90s. The design was removed during the "No Man's Land" arc.
 
 
The painting that the Joker spares during his vandalism spree is Francis Bacon's "Figure with Meat."
 
 
The design of Gothan City is based on the work of architects Antonio Gaudi, Otto Wagner and Shin Takamatsu.
 
 
In a newsroom scene, Vicki Vale and Alexander Knox examine a map of Gotham City which has been marked with Batman sightings. The map is actually a map of Vancouver, British Columbia.
