BW’s Daily Video> The Batman Movies Never Made

Quick Thoughts:

• Points for recognizing Tim Burton isn’t the one who brought Batman to its roots as the comics already broke away from the Silver Age during the Bronze Age. Not much said about the 1978 script.
• The 1986 offering has too many villains for one movie. It was a problem with everything from Batman Returns onward. Just focus on one villain. It’s literally the only thing I’ll give Matt Reeves credit for. It’s just the Riddler as the antagonist…or someone called the Riddler while being nothing like him.
• I’m of two minds (fitting) about Williams as Two-Face, but Marlon Wayans as Dick Grayson/Robin? No. There is no way that ever works either due to his acting style or his complexion. Williams at least could act the part of Dent, though I would have to be convinced about Two-Face as I’ve never seen him play a villain role. At least this is one time you can’t blame DEI.
• Am I the only person not impressed with Burton’s Catwoman? Nothing against Pfeiffer, because my issue is the presentation, not the actress. Being better than the Halle Berry movie is hardly praise. Maybe because there are so few Burton films I actually enjoy. Actually, just Beetlejuice. Still need to see the sequel.

The only things I have to say about the others is that I wouldn’t have been interested in any of them.
