Before Christian Bale had to come around and make Batman all sexy, that one was my favorite B'man movie. LOVE Jim Carrey.

the first batman was best.
Keaton, Jack, Tim Burton. Flawless.... and with Danny Elfman with Prince on the soundtrack? Phenomenal.

Jim Carrey wasn't in Batman Returns, by the way; Batman Returns had DeVito as the Penguin and Pfeiffer as Catwoman. Jim Carrey was in Joel Schumacher's 'Batman Forever', which in spite of being made by the worst filmmaker alive isn't a COMPLETE failure. I guess.
Burton's two Batman movies are definitely my favorite version of Batman, and Batman Returns was probably the last truly great Burton film (arguments can be made for either 'Ed Wood' or 'Big Fish', but as good as those films are they lack the perversity that made his early films so incredible).

Tim Burton's films meant a lot to me as a kid, they were a huge part of how I defined my personality. That he's almost as bad as Schumacher at this point really crushes my heart.
Stamper, have you seen that Burton/Elfman 25th Anniversary Music Box I've got on pre-order? As a (former) Burton apologist and an unabashed Elfman fanboy, it's going to be the crown jewel of my record collection (and I've got an LP signed by the Residents).

yeah. i remember you posting the details of that box set ages ago. isn't that coming out soon? or now? or did? or something?
I love Danny Elfman... ever since I fist saw 'Dead Man's Party' preformed in the 1986 Rodney Dangerfield classic 'Back to School!'
It is sad and frustrating how abysmal Burton's films have become over the years - Alice in Wonderland, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Planet of the Apes are three of the worst films i've ever seen.
Did you ever catch Tim Burton's cameo-appearance in the 90s movie Singles? It was really brief - but a pretty funny scene in that film.

'Singles' is the only Cameron Crowe film to have aged very well, I think. Even 'Say Anything...' is getting kind of cheesy.
The box was supposed to ship in December; then they pushed it back to February, then they said March and just today I started hearing April. It's a fucking debacle and a lot of people are really pissed, but I'll get over it as soon as it gets here.
