I don't care for '66 Batman or understand its appeal but I'm all for this and I think this is awesome for fans of it since I would love to see this happen to old dead shows that I love.

Just watch Superfriends. Its '66 Batman in cartoon form already.

It was a product of it's time just like the 87 turtles. It was campy but in a good way and pretty much prevented Batman from dying.

That's cool, I enjoyed the Batman 60s show, It was fun and campy.

It also reflects the comics at the time. It was goofier during that era.

I, for one, absolutely do not understand resurrecting old dated products. I suppose the marketing gurus think there's enough appeal to make business sense so...

Whatever.

Wow...Adam West sounds like he's gonna keel over and die any minute now. Sad given he had such energy in other voice-over roles over the years, and especially on Family Guy

50th anniversary of the movie and a lot of people grew up watching reruns of the Adam West version. I know I did in the 80s and really enjoyed it. Watched in the 90s too.

I went to see it yesterday afternoon and I was smiling the entire time. The film really was a nice throw back to my early days as a kid. It was also refreshing to see something fun and not so dark as well. Adam West, Burt Ward and Julie Newmar haven't lost their touch at all. The new cast gave solid performances too.

I am too busy to go to theater to see it and its not showing in my area anyway. The closest is 45 miles away. As to the spoiler...[SPOILER]Batman says just that after he fall at the end of her first appearance. A Catwoman/Two Face team up? That would be interesting. Have they teamed up before in any media? I don't think so. I assumed it would be an adaptation of the lost episode two parter that was made into a comic one-shot./SPOILER]

I watched the sequel Batman vs. Two-Face today and I have to say that Adam West would've been so proud of this film if he saw it. I miss him being alive in this world but he really did leave behind quite a legacy. This film was definitely a worthy successor to the first one. For some reason it seemed like the animation improved from the previous movie. The plot was a little more serious this time around. Also, it was really neat that Lee Meriwether was the voice of Lucilee Diamond.

Spoiler: The reference to the three actresses who played Catwoman was quite clever as was the one about the ending of 'The Dark Knight Rises'. I really don't think Catwoman as gone for good. There's that old saying that goes, "cats have nine lives". Plus, we're already getting a sequel so I believe that she might appear in it.
