Because they came to him with the movie idea and asked him what his take on it would be and that's what it was... I don't really know if Burton requested they make a Batman movie and let him direct it but I highly doubt he did... he was so famous as a director in '89 and the 90's that they thought he would be perfect for the film.... so stop cussing the poor man out, he's a brilliant director and its not his fault if that is how he thought the movie should be, he makes films for crying out loud, not Batman comics!
