Original Batman

Started by Impediment2 pages

I like the 60's Batman. I know that it is not who Batman is, but its fun to watch. I dont take this show, at all, seriously. If you want to see REAL Batman, watch Batman Begins. Or read some issues by Frank Miller/Jeff Loeb/Alan Moore.

Deicide is an idiot. The West show was a faithful adaption of the comics. You think the comics should have been darker in the 60's, Deicide? Tough shit. Go whine to the DC editors, or leave your basement and whine to your mom (who doesn't love you), or tearfully masterbate to pictures of Batgirl, or do whatever it is you do when you're aroused to frothing outrage over a forty-year old TV show. I don't care. But next time, don't bother telling us about it.

Yeah really.well said gregory.Its funny how he says the 60's batman show wasnt Batman yet he doesnt seem to realise that neither was The 89 version anything like Batmans character. 馃槅

Its still a fun show to watch for the nostalgia memorys and it still gives me a great laugh the way they really hammed it up back then.At least it was funny.

ya know, this is one thing i thought, when i saw Batman Begins. like wow. this is the first REAL believable, dark, portrayal of Batman at its absolute rawest. and it really put a twist on the way batman would be looked at. FOREVER.(if only it was marketed better and didnt have to come after schlumber's or w/e films, the public would have recognized it more and saw it 馃槧 ) but then, you look back in history in the 60's and see how batman is portrayed as campy, silly, hoaky ect. and its kinda funny, cuz without that version of batman, Batman Begins wouldnt even exist, n its pretty badass to think that that's the same comic character. goin SOCK! POW! BAM! ect lolol 馃槅 , wearin blue and gray tights and the cloth cowl w/ no ears in the 60's, and also now, using fear as a weapon, covered in jet black, stealth, deception, growing as a wraith in people's minds?! so there's alot of ways to look at batman , alot of ways to appreciate/depreciate him, so all ages can like him, by not seeming too hoaky for older people, and not too scary for younglings. and there's alot of ways to over-estimate/under estimate him on both sides. you go to a versus forum, set up batman vs blah blah, some one says, "aw that faggots gunns get his a$$ kicked!, did u even see the 60's show w/ adam west?!. hahahahah." but then, some one else says, "Oh, but did u see batman begins?" 馃槓 ....

Thats the beauty of the character, he has so many faces and sides that at least one of them will appeal to someone! 馃檪

The '60s show/ movie was a faithful adaption of the comics, with comedy throen in for great measure! In the '50s and 60s, batman and |Robin were Campman and Campier!

Hey
i was kidding around with the pic and all i said about the Batman tv show, i think everyone has watched it at least once and saw the movie. i saw most of the show as a kid and i did see the movie. comical as it was. i was just tryin to get a rise outta you morons, obviously i did. lol. its sad how seriously u fanboys take ur comics. just like the Pokemon rejects, when u say their cartoons suck. lol.

Dude, I'm not a fanboy. I just don't think homosexuality is the funniest thing ever...

hey...who said anything about homosexuality and it being funny? not me. i just put up the pic for shock value.

Uhhh... you irritate me...

the feelings mutual pal...

OK... this thread's kind of off topic...

did u ever get to see that Batman Dead End film yet?

Yeah... pretty good until he starts randomly fighting Predators...

THATS NOT THE ORIGINAL BATMAN. THATS NOT EVEN 1940 BATMAN. THE ORIGINAL BATMAN APPEARED IN DETECTIVE COMICS 27 AND I HAVE THE DOCUMENTATION TO PROVE IT. ADAM WEST SAVED BATMAN.

Not true. Batman was originally a DARK character.

the original was back in the 30's i think... i'm not talking about adam west

Indeed. Zero evidently knows nothing. If he loved the ORIGINAL Batman, why does he say Adam West's incredibly camp Batman saved comics?

The 60's Batman is too corny for me.

It's too FUNNY for me... classic!
