And so on . . .

im with shmokes on this one. what burton did with batman just hadnt been done before. batman begins is great too, but definitely owes its existence to the first..

It had been done... just not that well and with that budget.  There were a few Marvel adaptations in the 80s that just didn't work out because of small budgets and the talent that comes with it.  The early 80s show about The Hulk was a similar dark treatment of a comic book character and was way before Burton's first Batman movie.

--- Quote from: Kevin Smith ---He [Tim Burton] said "Anybody who knows me knows I would never read a comic book. And I certainly would never read anything written by Kevin Smith." Which to me, explains Batman.

I'm sick and tired of writers/directors/ect  "re-imagining" batman characters.  Let me put it this way... the ONLY person who can get away with that crap is tim burton, mainly because he is insainely talented.  Every batman film except 1 and 2, which he did, has been crap.  The joker wears purple and is a clown... he's not some emo crow wanna-be.  The fact that such a dark and sinister character goes around in cheery outfits throwing about bad puns is what makes him interesting and compelling.  Likewise, the contrast is what makes him scary.  It looks like they are just trying too hard to give the old clown an edge, which he already had, it just requires good acting ability to portray it. 

I find it tragically ironic that ledger commited suicide portraying a character that looks like the crow at 28 while Brandon lee accidentally killed himself during the "suicide scene" on the set of the crow on his 28th birthday in full "clown" makeup.
