2022 • E5 Mar 1, 2022 7m
Superhero movies are now the most mainstream blockbuster genre in the industry, but there was a time when they didn’t have the respect they now do. That all changed when Tim Burton’s 1989 Batman movie starring Micheal Keaton was a massive phenomenon and made a bunch of money.
Batman definitely raises some questions though. Like why does Batman get shot and play dead SO MANY times? Why is he treating Vicky Vale like that and why is Alfred so into it? Why is Batman sleeping upside down? What was that about rhubarb, Joker? Does Joker have teleporting goons? How was Batman’s grappling hook able to do THAT?!
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to Batman! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.
