What if Tim Burton directed Batman Begins?

Would it suck or not?

I mean the majority of people agree that Batman '89, directed by Tim Burton, was a classic and probably the best Batman movie out of all except maybe "B.Begins"

But would it bomb? "Batman" '89 didn't. And i think he's still a good director now..

the majorty of fans agree that. Im a fan of the new one...Tim Burton is a crazy director (positive/negative thing anyway u look at it). He portrayed the billionaire Bruce as an outcast, a loner, focused on the environment and external factors. Chris Nolan made BB to explore Bruce.
-If he was set to direct BB, it wouldnt be near the same thing as it is now. maybe none of that utelize fear stuff, and scarecrow would be a gas toxin weaponizing guy running around in a scarecrow costume.

Well to me, Tim Burtons style was always had a gothic/gloomy, dark humor to it.

But i think this new "Batman Begins" movie would be better than a Burton directed "Batman Begins" movie. Although gloom was apart of "Batman Begins" it had an element Tim Burton never really messes with in his films, and thats mature realism. Yea, "Batman Begins" wasn't real, but it was certainly mature. Unlike mostly all of Burton's movies.

Burton's cool, but I can't see him do a realistic drama. I wouldn't come out right.

Chris Nolan's Batman Begins was reallistic.
-bat armor, instead of a muscle suit
-bruce's training
-the only unreallistic thing is the blue flower, but the idea of weaopinizing gases are pretty reallistic

well, there were a few things in "Batman Begins" that were unrealistic like some of the "Bat-tank's" capabilities,

I don't know of any cars, or tanks in this case, that have stealth mode that visibly shields itself from multiple and closeby cop cars in hot persuit, lol

Or his cape and it's capabilities.

I don't know of any handgliders that tighten up after being as loose as a wet towel and allow you to glide in places that don't even hold strong air current because, to me, Batman was flying in that scene where he flew over Gotham above the chaos when people looked up to him and saw fire coming out his eyes and mouth. He was up there for a while. with no air currents. lol that wasn't gliding.

Burton Directed Batman Begins = Total Disaster.

His work is great in other films. BB was defenetly a film he should stay out.

But thats the thing. the 1st Batman Burton directed was real good, why would it be disaterous for him to do it with "Begins", do you think?. I mean it's not like he sucks at making "batman" movies, we all know that, there's proof.

-that...car sized tank's stealth mode is merely turning off its roaring engines and lights and using momentum to drive, note that its really black. so the bat gadgets are a bit futuristic. big whup.

Is obvious that if WB wanted to revive and reinvent the franchise they had to start with a different approach. Burton has his own particular style of Batman. And given the fact that fans were sick and tired of Batman movies being too colorful, WB opted to get a different director with a different style. Had they gone back to Burton the film would have lost interest specially since Burton's reputation got stained after his remake of Planet of the Apes.

thats the biggest false statement of the century.Burton sucks big time when it comes to making batman movies.he is a good film director no doubt,but not when it comes to making batman movies.Burton should never have been allowed near a batman franchise,he made the worst casting choice in comicbook history casting pudgy gut,receding hairline,half bald,short runt michael keaton for tall,muscualr handsome full set of hair bruce wayne? wtf? that rivals the horrible casting choice of burt reynolds as boss hogg because in both cases,neither comes close to fitting the role of the character.burton turned batman into a cowardly killer and the only time batman killed in the comics was in the very beginning and it was only when he absolutely had and there was no way out.burton should NEVER have been allowed near a batman franchise as all true batman fans know.the first one was horrible for those reasons,there is pleny more why the first one was horrible as well.he would have made batman into a cowardly killer again and probably have brought back keaton as batman as well.if not keaton,someone else who would be half bald and out of shape.burton should NEVER have been allowed near a batman franchise,the first two like the others were ALL disastourous and thats what we would have had with begins as well.thank god for nolan,a fans director who FINALLY delivered a batman movie that wasnt crap.

Batman Begins sucked, so by all means it would have been way better with Burton at the helm.✅

I just saw Edward Scissorhands again last night, and it was great. Tim Burton is a good fantasy director. But Batman isn't supposed to be fantasy. Beyond visual and aural style, Batman 89 was a piece of shit. I can't fathom how people can sit through that film and say it's a classic based on a couple of superficial reasons. Because apart from its style, everything else about it sucked!

Everything about Batman Begins sucked beyond compare...

Says the guy with a power rangers villain in his signature.

If Tim Burton directed Batman Begins, it would have been 60 minutes of Scarecrow mixed with 60 minutes of Ra's a Ghul, with Batman occassionally getting a five-minute camio. Much like his other Batman movies, really.

ok your retarded.

-as for burton thign with 60 mins of scarecrow and al ghul: ya most likely, he'll have the billionaire bachelor sitting in his cave all day, looking at people touring his mansion through his mirror. sad.

ya knowing burton he would probly focus more on scarecrow and the fear toxin if u halusionated you would probly see soem werid black and white striped thing bu ti would of liked ot see scarecrow the way he was in the comics but he was still cool in BB
