WHY IS HIS NECK SO LONG
On the Dark Knight outfit (from the movie) his neck is so long. Is this because they couldn't change the head height to shoulder ratio from the other outfits which give him a thicker neck and bigger traps to compensate? Really disappointing.

Arent you a little nitpicky in this case?
Select another suit and play with it.

it isn't longer, it just looks like it is both because of the design of the helmet (the jawline continues all the way up and around the back of the neck), as well as the de-emphasized neck/shoulder muscles.

the dark knight skin is almost the opposite with the neck looking very short because of overemphasized shoulders

Yes but my point is that his neck looks long because of the design. The actual Nolan suit from the films isn't that long in the neck.

yeah it is, you just don't really see that because they frame the shots specifically to make things look the best they possibly can.

HAHAHAHA.you're a bit salty, and more then a bit thick, aren't you? Why in the hell would I "lie" about this? It would be one thing to maybe be wrong or inaccurate with my opinion, but lying? Shut up and stop being dumb.

seriously, .02 seconds on google and the most illustrative image ever pops up. In the earlier 80's and 80's Batman flicks the neck was very thick (a result of the tech limits of the time, see http://batman.wikia.com/wiki/File:Keaton_batman_(1).jpg ) and used heavier shoulders which prevented the actors from being able to turn and elevate their heads. For Bale's Batman, they conciously designed the neck and shoulders to be much thinner/smaller so he would be able to actually turn his head. the drawback was that the helmet was still relatively thick, which had the illusion of making the neck look longer then it realy was because of the proportions.

Now, if you're done embarassing yourself, shoo. k thnx
