Wesley Freitas does a hilarious job with his new video 'Batman Maybe.' The video combines two huge summer crazes: the Dark Knight Rises and Call Me Maybe. The parody video involves all the Dark Knight characters including, Batman, Catwoman, Bane, Commissioner Gordon and John Blake.
Set to Carly Rae Jepsen's famous song, the John Blake character takes the lead in the video and sings out the plot of the film. The video starts at Batman's house, with Blake telling Batman to get back in the game because he's been out of it for too long.
Some hilarious lyrics include, "It's hard to walk right, with a bad knee, go see a doctor, a leg brace maybe...Before you were the dark knight, Gotham was so bad, now we miss batman, so just be bat bat-man."
