Michael Keaton is such a good guy. He is the Batman we all need.

Before Batman 89 came out, everyone was complaining about the Michael's casting. Wouldnt shut up about it. "Mr. Mom / Beetlejuice as Batman? Hes too short... hes not muscular.. boooo".. it came out, biggest movie of the year. Now? Everyone says "Best Batman Ever".

It was on the Late Show...I think '96 and he was promoting a movie called Multiplicity if I remember correctly. I love Dave and Michael's chemistry....they have such a long history together going back to the Mary Tyler Moore variety show (...if you want cringeworthy...check THAT out 🤣).

Michael is the Batman.

The vast majority of us did not see Keaton as Batman at the time. Most of us saw him as a goofy comedic actor and it was almost an insult to think he would be cast as Batman. Boy were we wrong.

Such a great rapport between these two gentlemen. Keaton could have been a great Joker too. Burton's Batmans are my favorite because they are dark, but there's still a feeling of a fairy tale.
