The Batman (1966) Appreciation Thread

[ALP]

You know what would be cool... a reboot of this series. Adam West and Burt Ward in a nursing home, fighting crime.

 

[Robin's Holyisms]

What does a Batman and Green Hornet cross over figure look like exactly?

I think it might be a recreation of the fight that pitted Green Hornet and Kato against Batman and Robin.

It's almost here.

 

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

And I'm very much looking forward to it...

 

[Two-Face]

They even kept Caser Romero's moustache just like live-action.

Julie Newmar was the hottest Catwoman in the series.

[The Joker]

AWESOME!!!

And a Knightquest one, too. Too cool for words.

Good time to be a Batman '66 fan, what with the series of action figures, and now model kits coming out.

 

[The Joker]

Don't forget a new comic book series.

The power of the 1966 show is everlasting.

Good time to be a Batman '66 fan, what with the series of action figures, and now model kits coming out.

the model kits are out and have been for a while the 1/25 scale all new 1966 Batmobile is a a MUST buy it comes in 3 flavors

1: pre painted (all the red striping and stuff is already on the body shell) snap kit that comes with a batman and robin figure to sit in the car when built.

2: glue kit, molded in black (I think, do not quote me on that) has decals for all the red striping, has opening hood with a choice of a V8 motor or a turbine, trunk opens to reveal the mobile bat computer.

3: ultimate, molded in white , has stencils for the body stripes, you paint the car red/orange apply stencils, paint car black, remove stencils, voila stripes are on the body. also has photo etched parts, a batman and robin figure, and the option to build it as the 'bird mobile' when penguin stole it and changed the bat logos on the doors to penguins and has a umbrella that sticks out over the passenger compartment.

Why can't WB, ABC, the Illuminati and whoever else responsible get it together and release this thing for home video?

They've been haggling over the rights for an eternity. It's actually easier to get rid of a bomb than to get these suits to agree.

Classic Batman is available on DVD; you just have to know where to find it.

whaaa, whaaa, whaaa!

I wonder what the Adam 22 thing is that West is holding in the second pic.

I came across a pic of Burgess Meredith with Bob Kane:

I wanna know who that woman is. That's not Kane's wife.

 

[The Joker]

It looks like they're at some kind of gathering or party. Maybe she's just a friend of Kane's.

 

[The Batman]

^ Yeah, most likely.

Watched some Penguin eps recently. Its funny watching his constant attempts to appear "reformed"

 

[The Joker]

The best one was when he opened that restaurant, and was getting all the rich folk to write out their orders so he could get hand writing samples and forge their signatures for millions.

Burgess always looked like he was having a blast playing Penguin.
