I just watched the original Tim Burton Batman again the other day and it had probably been 15+ years since I saw it. I was much better able to appreciate the performances and production design. It's really great and still holds up pretty well, except the end sequence with the bat jet is pretty dated. And they just got more and more campy from that point on, which is exactly what they wanted to avoid when they made it.
And yeah, I haven't seen ET in probably 15 or so years either. May watch it again someday.

Private dick movies.Sherlock doesn't count.
Hard drinking flawed men, sitting in their office with a bottle or smoke, melancholy narration, beautiful mysterious vixen or suspicious man enters with a case, etc.
Long dead genre, replaced by law enforcement procedurals or vigilant revenge fantasies.
Any recommendations? Besides big ones, like Chinatown of course.
