In the scene in Max Shreck's office when Selina Kyle notices that Shreck has forgotten his speech transcript, on the wall in Max's office are pictures taken of Max Shreck with celebrities such as Arnold Schwarzeneggar, Sammy Davis Jr. and Elvis Presley!

All this time I hadn't noticed until watching it on my 10" portable DVD player and zoomed in.
 
Elvis eh? I never noticed him in BR

Except it's not Schwarzenegger, it's Victor Fries.

See, Batman & Robin was being planned waaaaay back in 1992. It's actually Burton's fault, not Schumacher's.
 
This is one of the original photos, the famous meeting between Nixon and Elvis, in the movie it's Max Shreck in place of Nixon.

Even in the movie's story, Max probably used that photo and had it doctored to replace Nixon as himself. It's funny when you view it from that perspective.
 
^Good point but wow, I never noticed that. Anyone got pics!?!?!

LOL!

I'm about to pop the DVD in my cpu right now.
 
yeah i think i remember noticing this a looong time ago, those little pictures on the wall.
 
I was THERE (?) no. 1 son.... LOOOOL!
 
Another interesting fact in relation to Elvis Presley is the Actor in Batman Returns who played the Mayor of Gotham City Was also in the 1965 Elvis movie "Double Trouble" He Plays a Hitman and There is scene where Elvis kicks his ass with his "karatay" and he falls into an old well!! same guy!! LOL

I also find it weird that Tim Burton Gave Walken's Character the name "Max Schreck" That was the name of the Actor Who played the Vampire in F.W. Murnough's 1922 Silent Film "Nosferatu" I Highly Doubt This was by Accident!! ( I only know this info becuz my dad is an elvis impersonator who's obsessed with Vampires & Comic bookss.... Im not joking (& dont ask) lol
 
ive noticed this for a while, but its especially noticable on a big HDTV on bluray. its one of those very funny touches in the film haha! the pic with arnold, LOL! i wonder if this was burtons idea or the production designers.
