Real talk: Batman 1989 is not a good movie

[Neuromancer]

Lowkey compared to Nolan's Begins it's awful.

Burton made Gotham a real place that they still get influenced by every time the city shows up outside the comics.

The Danny Elfman theme

Batman Returns is the movie that was 100% Burton after the success of the first one.

I was watching a thing on Netflix about the Nightmare Before Christmas last night and feel like running through the Burton classics

 

[humminbird]

Wrong

This and batman returns were my favorite movies to watch on TV as a kid

I love batman returns I just don’t like batman 89

 

[Striving For Greatness]

I'm sorry brehs, the movie was a little bit wack. It was carried by the costume design and you know it.

Movie was forgettable. Nothing really remarkable about it. The story beats felt weak, character motivations were all over the place, etc. Along with other stupid stuff (joke killing Batman's parents... Vicki Vale...)

Prince's soundtrack didn't add anything to the movie. I left it thinking "what was the point of this?"

Overall, Tim Burtons designs and scene composition are the only things about it that actually stick out for being somewhat good. Otherwise, it was ass.
@humminbird

When did you FIRST see it?

 

[Elim Garak]

Not my favorite but it's not a bad movie at all.

 

[Mastamimd]

Nah.

 

[BlackMajik]

Before Batman '89 and the Dark Knight Returns comic Batman was just a super campy character

Respect Batman '89

 

[Elim Garak]

Most of the Batman movies are trash if we’re being honest.

At one point this was true but nah this is no longer the case.
