"Michael Keaton is batman" FUCK YES he is!!!! Such a great film

Another interesting fact: Jack Nicholson didnt accept the role of the Joker at first, so Warner Bros offered the role to Robin Williams, who was actually very keen. But it turned out to be a ploy to snare Nicholson back because they made sure the news got back to Jack`s agent, to which he informed him if he wants the role, he better take it now, so for a huge sum of dollars he did. 5 years later, when they were casting for Batman Forever, Warner was very keen on Robin Williams to play the Riddler, when they offered him the role, he told them to stick it and demanded a written apology for using him as bait for the previous film. He eventually did get the apology and the next warner bros film he starred in years later was Insomnia, directed by Christopher Nolan, who coincidentally went on to direct the next Batman trilogy

Actually, Warner Brothers and Robin Williams eventually worked something out, but after Batman Returns didn't make as much money as expected, the people at Warner Brothers wanted to bring back the campy attitude from the Adam West days; primarily to make it more appealing to kids. When that was decided, Burton dropped out. Followed by Keaton, who was only going to return if Burton did. After that, the WB decided to have almost every role be recast. This is why Tommy Lee Jones became Harvey Dent, after Billy Dee Williams had already played the part previously. This is also why they decided to give the role of the Riddler to Jim Carey. After being spurned twice by Warner Brothers, Robin Williams did indeed boycott working for them for a number of years until Insomnia.

It was kind of a combination of both. He originally left because of Burton being dropped, and that he disliked the screenplay; later saying that there was nothing in it he could identify with. At this point Warner Brothers offered him 15 million dollars to return, which he considered briefly, but after one meeting with newly appointed director Schumacher, he officially turned down the role permanently.

I remember when Batman came out it was like nothing I had ever seen. Everyone was rocking Batman t-shirts and the Saturday after the movie's opening night there was a line of people filling up the theater's lobby and going outside into the parking lot and up the street. It was insane! The movie did not disappoint, either. One of the very few films that fully lived up to the hype. I've watched Tim Burton's Batman more times than I can count and I'm still not tired of it. I love Nolan's take on the caped crusader but this movie will always be my personal favorite.

That was all because of Michael Keaton. The posters originally were going to say "Keaton Nicholson" but Keaton had such respect for Nicholson he told Tim Burton to make it the other way around so Nicholson got the top billing. You'd never see an actor now let their respect for another actor have them stop from getting top billing, ego's are too fragile now in Hollywood.

It’s because Burton didn’t really care about the character of Bruce Wayne/ Batman. It shows in the movie, if you think about it. He didn’t give Batman the respect he deserves as the ace detective he is. He also barely has any fight scenes in the movie and they are short-lived with only a few punches and kicks thrown. Burton didn’t even read comic books, except for the Killing Joke, which would explain why his Joker gets so much more focus in the film.

I remember, all too well, the backlash connected with Keaton as Batman. There was even backlash (but less so) about Nicholson as Joker, not about his acting or anything but about his body and how Joker is normally drawn as being tall and thin and Nicholson is neither. I think the thing that finally shut people up (other than the movie itself) was seeing Keaton playing a recovering alcoholic in "Clean and Sober" which I THINK came out just before "Batman". Honestly, I doubt there has ever been a casting choice for a super hero movie that didn't cause at least a little backlash for one reason or another.

At the time Jack Nicholson's deal with WB was to get a lower salary but a cut of the profits including merchandise. So instead of the $10 million he normally would have asked for, he did it for $6 and a cut of the gross. He wound up making $100 million on the deal which continues in residuals to this day and was the biggest payday for an actor at least back in the 80's.

hearing about all the hype is awesome. That's so great people were that excited for the movie at the time. wish people got that hyped about movies these days instead of just whining about anything they can find to dislike about them.

I love that you basically watched the documentary on the Batman DVD and then made this video. While I appreciate this video and sharing this info with the masses, the actual documentary is really really good.

Keaton for me is and will always be batman, if a batman conversation happens to come up in my minds eye it is keaton that I see. I know there are others but he is the best at the bat I thought as well as a fine bruce wayne. From what I have seen in the trailors I think affleck is doing a pretty good job as well.

Michael Keaton was a great batman. Adam west was my batman from my childhood.

epic knowledge you packed there... you made my day .

Not only is Keaton Batman to me, but the excellent Elfman music from this film is THE definitive Batman theme...as proved by its use in more recent stuff like Lego games and the like.

Who else paused the video at 3:36 to try the magic eye picture? I saw a bird.

2 years later so did I, and yes, it was a bird flying with open wings...

in 2015 money it would be a $67M budget, still reasonable for a superhero movie :D

Absolutely hilarious commentary! Loved this! I felt the same way about Prince's Bat Dance LOL!

i love the logic of lets get Jack Nicholson, a guy known for playing psychotic darkly comic characters, and will be playing the most psychotic darkly comic characters, to show everyone that we are tying to make a serious movie. I heard that peter o'toole was also in the running for the role. That would have been a treat

This was great! The Tim Burton Batman movies (Batmen?) are my favorites.

I didn't think so. I thought it was lazy casting, and a mediocre performance. Keaton woulda done it better.

7 facts about the original Superman film or Sam Raimi's Spider-Man

Thank you for the comments about Keaton BEING Batman to those born before 1990. This is absolutely true. Especially when comparing to those that came later.

Man, hilarious commentary and this was my favorite move as a kid too. michael keaton was batman and always will be for me. as for the joker, heath ledger was amazing and it's a hard decision for me as to who was better because they both seemed great in their own ways.

7 Things forgotten about Batman '89: 1) Keaton created the Batman voice everyone tries to do now. 2) Ray Liotta turned down the role. 3) DC has butchered the Bat Emblem since then. 4) The 80s were parodied like in Beetlejuice and Edward Scissorhands. 5) Warner mishandled the property for about ten years before it got made. 6) This is Gotham City as we know it now. 7) The action figures made Toy Biz a major company. Warner and DC yanked the license due to the firm not being able to keep up with demand. Toy Biz, instead, got money from Marvel to do the Marvel figures, then bought Marvel, and made Marvel a film industry force. Meanwhile, DC continues to suffer under Warner's incompetence in both film and toys.

Alex Fox. No he wasn’t. He turned down the opportunity to AUDITION for the role. I’ve just seen the interview when Liotta says he had the chance to meet Tim Burton but regrets not doing so.

I like them too but my favourite is Christian Bale.

I think more people were concerned over Keaton's role in Mr Mom, than Beetlejuice.

1. Batman worked alone at start, but this was not the case earlier. 2. Batman is a classic nowadays and reinvented the Batman franchise. 3. Michael Keaton is Batman. 4. The Batman logo got a face-lift. 5. Batman came out in 1989, at a time when there was no internet. 6. Batman was shot at Pinewood Studios in England. 7. The production team spent a lot of money for the film.

Electric chair and The future were great songs though. But Face to Face by siouxsie and the banshees? Genius.
