I watched this movie all the time during my childhood! I remember pretty much every scene of this movie in detail and must say that its excellence is extremely difficult to match.

9,5/10

 

Edit: Gave it five stars in the poll.

So for BATMAN (1989) the Batsuit looked like this:

The Batmobile looked like this:

______________
I love the yellow Batman icon on the suit...no it's terrible if we look at how stealthy the suit should be at times...but it looks nice :D
I think this is the best looking Batmobile...it looks like a batmobile not like a tank (like in nolans) & it doesn't look like a glowing fairy car (like in schumachers).
Can't wait to watch the movie!!!

You can find the full movies in Youtube but it think its best if we skip those ;)

Anyways it odd that you put the Mask Of The Phantasm before the animated series but oh well

Batman The Movie with Adam West is one of the funniest movies ever.  It's so shockingly cheesy that most people can't handle it.

I think I will only be re-watching BB and TDK, so I'll be here when the time comes. Oh, and I will go to a midnight pre-release of TDKR (19th/20th July, film will "officially" start showing on the 25th)!! Can't wait. 

Why only those? 

At least watch Batman & Robin...we don't get slapstick cheap comedy like that nowadays.

At the time, I thought it was amazing. It doesn't hold up as well, though. I bought a $10 DVD from K-Mart a few years back with all of the non-Nolan movies on one two sided disc. Had a bit of a Batman marathon. I'll try to watch them again before The Dark Knight Rises but I know I won't make it through them all. I'll definitely watch the Nolan movies, though. Hell, I watch TDK almost monthly, anyway.

And, when we do discuss The Dark Knight, maybe somebody can answer this question for me: Why didn't any of the school buses from that bank robbery in the beginning of the movie call somebody on the radio? They could have said, "Dispatcher, the bus in front of me just drove out of a fucking bank and I passed ten police cars going to that same bank. Is this unusual?"

The movie would have been ten minutes long.
