The movie that never was. But if it did get made all those years ago.

What do you think it wouldve been like?
 
Worst then B&R....Scarecrow was gonna be one of the main villians using his fear toxin to bring Joker back to life....Mad Hatter was gonna be in the game too...Harley Quinn was gona be Joker's daughter...Would of been terrible....Glad was never made.
 
i don't really want to imagine it. schumacher did not deserve a third chance. especially after batman and robin.

B&R was weird enough. Imagine how trippy BT would've been with the fear toxin.
 
George Clooney, Chris O'Donnell and Alicia Silverstone would've returned to play their roles. :doh:
 
Finally Ropbin Williams gets his role in Batman movie as CGI Batmite's voice.
 
Batmite was gonna be in the movie too? Film would of been worst then B&R.

Wow, is all that true? If so, wow.....Just wow.....I didn't think it could get worse than B&R, but that would have pulled it off.
 
actually the Joker was going to appear in a fear toxin-induced hallucination. He wasn't being brought back to life.

The film, according to some rumors, was going to be a return to the darker Batman films. Dick and Barbara wouldn't be in the film at all. Aside from Harley Quinn being the Joker's daughter, the film, if some story rumors are true, would have been pretty cool.

Bat-Mite, i imagine, would have appeared in the fear toxin hallucination as well. I actually think, if it were a prolonged sequence, it would have been pretty cool to see. It's an hallucination, it would probably be really trippy and twisted and disturbing.
 
No Robin was gonna be in the movie...Batgril was not but Robin was. They was gonna continue the campyness what you talking about man. WB did not decide to have Batman go back to being dark until the early 2000s.

Also Batmite is lame and should stay in the comics or cartoons not on actual movie screen. And yes Joker was gonna return in the film as he was gonna team up with Scarecrow to take on Batman & Robin.

I don't believe they were gonna continue with the campiness as it was Shumacher himself who said he wanted to do a darker batman film. Joker was being brought back as part of a fear-toxin induced hallucination. You really think Jack Nicholson would have agreed to come back just to let his character be a part of that crappy mess had it been campy? Shumacher approached WB about doing a "Year One" film in 1998.

Shumacher isn't inept at making good, dark movies. He ****ed up with Batman & Robin, but could the guy make a dark Batman film if given the chance? Probably. Would it be good? Probably.

If filmed right, you could have a really twisted, disturbing hallucination sequence featuring Bat-Mite as some demented form of Batman's psyche, kinda like in Grant Morrison's "RIP" storyline.

I'd like to see where this could go, actually. These are the rumors I heard.
With the exception of B&R, I enjoy the old movies. Batman Returns being my favorite of them.

So Scarecrow was gonna be the main villian and Harley Quinn secondary villian? Also wasn't Mad Hatter suppose to be in the film aswell?

And if the film was gonna be dark like B89 and BR then I guess they was gonna ignore the events of BF and B&R cause no way they could of had this movie be dark when the other 2 films were pretty much campy, especially B&R.

But if the film was gonna be darker then maybe it could of been a really good film if done right. But I think it would of been campy since WB did not want Batman dark again until the early 2000s.
 
Imagine.....it hurts my brain.
 
Darker with both of a Batman89 and BF vibe to it. Supposedly what I've heard.
 
Even the name of the film would have been over the top.
 
Batman: DarKnight
Despite Warner Bros. and Schumacher's interest with Year One, Lee Shapiro, a comic book fan, and Stephen Wise pitched the studio with a script titled Batman: DarKnight in mid-1998. DarKnight had Bruce Wayne giving up his crime fighting career and Dick Grayson attending Gotham University.[45] Dr. Jonathan Crane uses his position as professor of psychology at Gotham University and as head psychiatrist at Arkham Asylum to conduct his experiments in fear (this element would later appear in Batman Begins). During a vengeful confrontation with a colleague, Dr. Kirk Langstrom, Crane unknowingly initiates Kirk's transformation into the creature known as Man-Bat. Citizens of Gotham believe Man-Bat's nightly activities to be Batman's "bloodthirsty" return. Bruce becomes Batman "to clear his name" and solve the mystery of Man-Bat.[45] Kirk struggles with his "man vs. monster" syndrome as he longs to both reunite with his wife and get revenge on Crane, while Crane exacts revenge on those responsible for his dismissal from both Arkham and the university while encountering truths about his past. Warner Bros. decided not to move forward, and passed on Batman: DarKnight in favor of Year One and Batman Beyond.

This would been crap too.
 
I think its attempt to be darker would result by having Batman fitted with a black rubber c**k and taking away the nipples. Balls to that,lol!!!

If the Joker was going to play a part in some shape or form, then it would only seem right to have Michael Keaton come back as Batman/Bruce Wayne (since he actually faced the Joker (unlike Val Kilmer and George Clooney) in that particular continuity).
