The Batman (1966) Appreciation Thread - Part 1

[signalman]

Yeah. I love how they're expanding the show with the comics, even if people don't consider it canon.

This article explains it well:

They even had

Spoiler

False False become Clayface

I like that the writer used a story point device from the BATMAN-BLOCKBUSTER stories of the late 60's.
Which really fit into False Face origin.

Personally I would rather see BLOCKBUSTER appear instead of BANE
in BATMAN 66.
Never been a fan of Bane. Although I like the way Tom Hardy played him
TDKR.

 

[The Batman]

Personally I would rather see BLOCKBUSTER appear instead of BANE
in BATMAN 66.

I would've preferred them focusing on debuting characters who could've actually been on the TV show, meaning any 1939-1968 villain.

 

[Penguin]

I would've preferred them focusing on debuting characters who could've actually been on the TV show, meaning any 1939-1968 villain.

If that’s the case, then they should debut Killer Moth. He would've fit right in with the campiness of the show.

 

[The Joker]

Killer Moth was in a mini pilot for Batgirl before season 3 aired;

[Penguin]

Well, at least he doesn't look as goofy as his comic-book counterpart.

The stiffest human body to fly miles out into the ocean from a jack-in-the-box. Ever.

 

[Kane52630]

It always creeps me out during that fight scene that you can clearly see Romero's stunt double.

 

[The Joker]

That is a fantastic wallop of the umbrella Pengy gives Bruce there.

I love this movie.

It would have been perfect with Julie Newmar, even though I quite like Meriwether.

 

[The Joker]

I always thought it was a shame that Newmar never got to work with Meredith, Romero, or Gorshin. I loved Meriwether, but it would have been so perfect if Newmar had been Catwoman.

 

[Penguin]

It’s unfortunate that so many seem to hate it these days, I absolutely loved the movie.

 

[Cain]

Don't feel bad. People who hate the movie lack a soul and aren't worth caring about anyway

 

[Goshdarn Batman]

I love the Santa Claus cameo.

Funny how his voice cracks. I don't know why, but it seems like he's in a hurry or something.

Santa: "Hohoho, merry chriiiihssmas evybahdii! *runs off the set to get his check*"

I've written a batman 66 scenario that some friends and I will play during the first dance at my wedding next saturday.

I will play batman, my best man will play robin, and we will fight the joker and the penguin, because they will kidnap my wife.

 

[The Joker]

^ That sounds awesome lol. Please take some pics of it if you can.

 

[Naked Shia]

we will take pics, and a friend will record the whole thing on video.

we will even have the batman 66 music playing during the fight ^^

 

[The Joker]

Excellent. Congrats on your wedding btw

 

[The Joker]

Two generations of Catwomen met recently;

 

[Naked Shia]

Excellent. Congrats on your wedding btw

thank you!

here is the video. It's not the full video, and I'm waiting for people to send me a better version, but it's a nice enough preview of the show ^^

[The Joker]

[YT]b8-PEhrzYPc[/YT]

That is AWESOME. LOL I love it. Costumes are fantastic. You really put the effort in. The music playing even has that kind of fast paced beat the fight scenes music in the 60's show had.

I can't wait to see the full thing. Well done, man. Best wedding ever.

 

[Naked Shia]

haha, thank you.

We had a great time, and nobody knew we were gonna do that. in the whole scene, Joker wakes up again, and my wife punches him.

I won't put the whole video, because we're speaking in french. I may put some dialogue though, if only because my friend who play penguin is awesome, especially when he does Meredith's famous qwack.

In the end, Robin says something, and batman has to tell him the correct way to speak, and adds "good grammar is essential to be a good citizen robin".
