Great. With respect, who cares what you or anyone else thinks twenty something years later? The film was HUGE at the time. Friggin HUGE. If you weren't around (I get the feeling you prob weren't born when the film came out) you simply have no idea about how huge the movie was and how it totally reinvented Batman and indeed the while superhero film genre. TOTALLY.

There is so much wrong with Burton's Batman. I don't have time right now, maybe later.
Yes, Mr. Mom should have never have been Batman and why did the Joker or Nicholson have to be in every other scene? -

I was there (at the theater with my Batman t-shirt) and, you're right, the movie was huge. BUT it sucked. I was wholly disappointed; and so were many others who didn't drink the Kool-Aid of mass hype and delusion. Sure the movie
looked
good, but the story is
boring
and the tone is campy/goofy, the antithesis of 2005's "Batman Begins," which was what I was hoping "Batman" would be, but I had to wait 16 years. And, no, I'm not a Nolanite; not even a little.

Like I said, I bought the hype and was there in the theater on opening weekend with my Batman shirt, but, despite this, even I could see that the movie and the surrounding hysteria was a case of "the Emperor's New Clothes." Not that there's
nothing
good in it, of course; just that it wasn't even close to being as mind-blowingly awesome as the mass hype made it out to be.

"Yeah, looks like you're a bit confused since your profile pic is from "The Batman movies with Christian Bale,although yeah, Batman Begins is the only really good one".
LolBatman has ears. Put your specs on. Also, NO. "Batman Begins" sucks as does all of his movies. It's mainly his voice. He tries to disguise it from Bruce Wayne's by speaking low and sexy, and what comes out is a guy in a Halloween costume that swallowed a ball of cat hair. I could never get past his voice to enjoy any of his Batman movies. Also, the Bat-mobile looks more like a Army recon ATV. His movies take themselves too seriously, and they take the fun out of the franchise. Batman with Michael Keaton, and Kim Basinger was all the Batmans I ever needed.
P.S. Don't get me wrong or feel like I'm trolling. I am happy that others have enjoyed other Batman movies involving Christian Bale, I'm just not one of them.

Well sorry it's like a 100x100 pixel picture, you can't really see what's precisely in there.
But anyway, you gotta admit that the voice never got to EXTREME levels of stupidity until the second movie.
And yeah, I agree on the fact that the Nolan movies take themselves too seriously, but c'mon, Batman Begins compared to the other two is pretty tame on that, and it has a pretty comic-like atmosphere in some scenes. -

Isn't Batman Begins the one where he goes to Tibet and gets all serious with the Ninga $hit? Then flies home, hires Morgan Freeman, and dates Katie Holmes?
If so, I did laugh at that movie. Key word is "at". That was my least favorite of all the Batman movies. Sorry, just my opinion. When he was talking to Holmes in the subway with the gravel voice, I got up and visited the candy counter. I OD'd on sugar until I was finally "released" from the theater. lol.
We won't even discuss the Batman vs Superman movies. They were made for kindergartners, and 'anything' Ben Affleck is in sucks, except for the rare occasion that his buddy Matt Damon lets him in one of his flicks.
