Now here's a fun fact, Batman 1989 with Michael Keaton is now as old to the modern generation as the 60's Batman with Adam West was to our generation when the 1989 movie came out.

There was about a 20 year gap between when the 60's show ended and when the 1989 Tim Burton flick came out, and now it's been over 25 years between when that came out and the modern Batman movies. Hell even the Nolan Batman trilogy is a decade old now.

I just thought it was interesting that for those of us who thought the 60's Batman show was, "ancient" or "old" back when we were in the 90's experiencing the new live action Batman movies and B:TAS, now both of these elements are the same 25+ year old material as is to current Batman films and cartoons.
