The Official Batman Returns Thread - Part 2

I can't ever decide which Keaton suit I like more.

The Returns one is the best one, IMO. I never really dug the fake plastic muscle look on the B'89 costume. The bat symbol in the oval wasn't the classic design either.

The Returns suit got everything right.

yeah I like both of them for varying reasons. I like the mask better in Batman Returns... but I like the Bat-chest-oval better in the first movie... I think the suit in the first movie just looks angrier, more mean. They slimmed it down for Batman Returns and Keaton lost a bit of his bulk I think. But hey, I love both of em.
 
Awesome picture that I found on eBay. I actually might get this poster. There are barely any good shots of Keaton with the Returns suit on the internet. Now this looks like a Batman!

Be warned... the quality of the photograph itself is very grainy and its very dark... hard to see Batman. I know cuz I owned that poster at one time. :cwink:

I like the sleek, gray suit from BR much more. The first suit was still very much a work in progress imo since it was the very first movie suit/black bodysuit. I like it and its my second favorite, but prefer Returns by far
 
It has to be Returns suit for me I like B89 suit too.
 
I don't like fake muscles either, but the first suit just works for me.
 
I love the cowl in both Keaton movies. It looks so much more intimidating then TDK.

But every movie suit had fake muscles, in one form or another except for Returns which was visibly an armor, nit stylized muscles like ribs and recognizable six pack and all that he had in every other movie
 
Finally splashed out and got a Michelle Catwoman poster... at the shocking cost of £60.

Can't say i'm overly thrilled with it. There was a slight mark on it and guess I was just expecting more.

returns suit all the way

batman returns was the bes live action film to feature the character.

it's hard to imagine so many plots crammed into a single film working so well, most films can't even get across one simple narrative these days.

I'm looking for good deals on that poster......that's the only bat-themed poster I want and was always my favorite way back when.

again, IMO, no matter how good or bad Anne does in DKR...this will always be my film Catwoman...
 
There was a full door poster of Michelle i saw on ebay for 15 bux i really wanted to get it.

Ouch! You def overpaid. You can get them on eBay for much less. I bought my brother one about a year ago for $30 US

That's a reproduction though, not an original from 1992.
 
Yeah I know. Personally I don't care just as long as it looks the same.
 
Yeah. But I understand that people like collecting the real stuff.
 
I never could like the Returns suit. At least no more than the B89 suit. I never got the notion of having Batman look like an old train with those things on the abs.

Never had a problem with the muscle-looking armour. Many ancient armors looked like human muscles. Not to mention that the original Batman looks a lot like that too. Human muscles.
 
I guess Burton wanted it to look more like armor the 2nd time around. I like both suits for different reasons. Batman looked great, bulky and mean in the first film... I think Keaton lost some of his bulk in the 2nd film because the suit was much sleeker. I prefer the mask on the Batman Returns suit... but I think I like the torso from the first Batman. I also prefer the 3-pronged tail Bat-symbol from the first film. It would've been interesting to see what they would've done to the suit in Burton's Batman 3.

Yeah I was looking for an original specifically... And went with a more trust worthy site (or so I hoped) as opposed to ebay.

I'll keep looking for a better version. Ah well.
 
I'm sure they accept refunds. Seriously, send that sucker back. For 60 POUNDS you should've gotten one in minty fresh condition.
