neither of these 'cities' make any kind of sense. god those movies were a trip.

Burton's were great, especially the Returns one, but I think the TAS one where the city was more art deco (they dubbed it "Dark Deco") in look and tone really captured it.

There's a lot of things I don't like about Burton's Batman films, but the setting isn't one of them.

Well at least he got one thing right.

it's called great, cohesive art-design

I think Arkham series would have done a good job

Had it not turned it's city into a cluster of islands connected by bridges.

Childhood is wanting to live in gotham city.
Adulthood is realising metropolis makes more sense

BTAS is pretty much the authoritative vision of the entire Batman world.

I love that Schumacher Gotham is canonically just Burton Gotham lit up by Max Shreck's power plant
