Why did Steven not do the last two batman movies?
Don't know how to to spell this last name so please excuse me.Anyway the movies "Batman" and the other movie "Batman Returns" he had directed but why not the other two?
They are good but not as good as the other two.They were more funny then anything and I think they should be dark.I mean we are talking about batman here.
What do you guys think?jm 😠
You're talking about Tim Burton.
He did a pretty good job on the first; the second one was too grotesque. And Burton showed a preoccupation with the villains over Batman for screen time. He wasn't brought for the third because the studio wanted to move in a lighter direction, which became campy and stupid.
Anyway, water under the bridge. Batman Begins is THE definitive Batman movie, and The Dark Knight is on it's way next year.
Batman Begins was better than any previous Batman.
Tim Burton was the one that ruined the last series from the get-go.
The very idea of Batman rolling in with machine guns and grenades popping out of the tires to blow up baddies makes me cringe.
Like the other poster said, it was focused on the villains over Batman himself.
The current series is far more true to the source material.

I believe the people in charge thought his version was too dark.
RETARDED! The people who are 'in charge' are retarded, Tim Burton CREATED the true invision of Batman, wooh he isnt gonna kill anyone, whooh he has machine guns whooh, oh well!
SOrry thsi really got me pissed off. Joel Schumacker made the Batman series, for lack of a better term, GAY! Bat-nipples, ****. This guy has issues, But Tim Burton invented the better version of Penguin and did MUCH better at casting than any other batman version. I am shocked and appauled that people could say that Tim Burton did a bad job. He did great! He invisioned Gotham city in an amazing fashion, and He pulled of Bruce Wayne in a much better fashion than freaking Nolan, or whoever did Begins. in Batman begins its all "oooh pity me, im sad cause my parents are dead, but im not gonna kill anyone! ill just knock them out, **** you League of Shadows!"
although Michael Keaton was a wee bit un-muscular, he still was phenominal in the movie. plus the villains NEED screen time. if they only show them once in a while, they get nothing. They need to be shown in every aspect, The Villains were often higher profile than the actor playing Batsy.
Thank you for reading this hate inspired rant!

His Batman was way off base from the source material, regardless of your love for it.
His Batman was much closer to Frank Miller's vision than the actual Batman.
Nolan had the better script, the better cast[save Nicholson, who is one of the all time greatest actors ever, however his Joker -- as brought on through the direction of Burton obviously -- was closer to 1950's than current portrayals.], the better vision, period.
I mean lets put this into perspective;
Charlie and the Chocolate factory? Sucked, not even close to the original.
Planet of the Apes? Sucked.
Mars attacks, sucked.
Corpse Bride sucked.
I mean shit, looking at his history, Nightmare before Christmas and Big Fish are his ultimate best movies.
His Batman movies were decent at best, but they weren't Batman at all, as I said before, much closer to Frank Miller's vision than actual Batman.

Batman 1 and Batman Returns are the only good batman movies that have ever existed, even though Batman Begins was ok. im Burton is th eonly person other than myself capable of dirrecting a batman movies. not to 'toot my own horn' if you will
thats the funniest thing I have ever heard. 😆 All the Batman movies made prior to Batman Begins are a disgrace to the character Batman.any true batman fan knows that. 🙄 Tim Burton should be shot for his pathetic batman movies.Like someeon else already mentioned,The Batman franchise was a pathetic disgrace once they put that idiot Tim Burton in charge of making them.Thank god for Nolan for giving us the one and only true batman movie with Batman Begins.

His two efforts weren't bad, and they certainly carried Tim Burtons mark, but both of his Batman credits have dated quickly and badly. Certainly, his envisioning of Gotham was unique and interesting, but it was not gothic in the ordinary sense, the sense Batman deserves. it was Tim Burton "gothic", which just means scary circus imagery in surbubia.
and He pulled of Bruce Wayne in a much better fashion than freaking Nolan, or whoever did Begins. in Batman begins its all "oooh pity me, im sad cause my parents are dead, but im not gonna kill anyone! ill just knock them out, **** you League of Shadows!"
I really do not see your gripe here; its an origin story, Batman is motivated in the beginning by revenge, and him not killing every single thug with low morals allows him to rise above the ordinary vigilante, so the audience can relate to him. Nolan's Bruce Wayne was a fantastic, well fleshed out representation of a young Wayne.
I thought the atmosphere of the Burton movies was fantastic, but they were spoiled by a writer (seriously, it's no use blaming Burton for directing what was in the script) who didn't really understand the character. Had they been original noir/action movies, instead of a Batman movies, they would have been excellent--but when you're adapting source material, you're expected to treat it with a certain amount of respect.

Well said Juntai.You my man are a true Batman fan. 👆 I could not have said it better myself.Yeah Tim Burton was the one who ruined the Batman franchise from the very get go.The very idea of Batman rolling in with machine guns and grenades popping out of tires to blow up baddies makes me cringe as well.Tim Burton should be shot for his travesty.Batman carelessly endangered the lives of innocent civilians when he did that.Plus his batwing he flew which is SUPPOSE to be a state of the art batplane,was such a piece of junk,it couldnt even zero in accurately on the joker when he tried to kill him with those machine guns. 😆
Thats the style of the punisher to kill people in cowardly ways for god sakes NOT Batman. 🙄 as we have all pointed out to this doofus already,Burtons Batman movies sucked because most the screentime was devoted to the villains and batman was just a supporting character.Thats okay for tv episode for a TV show,but NOT a movie.A movie is a special case and that idiot Burton did not treat it as one.Burtons Batman movies were a disgrace.Batman looked like a wimp with poor fighting skills getting the crap beat out of him by that ONE goon who had no special fighting skills at all.and please,Burton/keaton lovers,dont come back with that lame flimsy excuse that he was hurt from the plane crash.Batman knows how to block out pain and he had plenty of time to recover when he was walking up the steps to the towers.By that time,he had recuperated enough to fight and the Batman from the comics could have easily beaten that guy blindfolded.Its not like he had a broken leg and two broken arms or anything.He was just just minorly scratched from the crash.
