>>85796575 (OP)
There's a middle ground. Campy Batman is more of the 66 TV show's thing. You can point to Batman stories of the 50's and 60's and say, "Oh that's so campy and silly!", but they weren't doing it intentionally like the 66 show was. And for all those "silly" out of context covers with aliens and rainbow Batmen, there's things like Batman investigating the crime lord behind his parents death, or fighting Death Man. While they did try to intentionally copy the TV show for a bit, it didn't really work out and quickly ended. While guys like dennis O Neil are credited for changing the character, it wasn't THAT drastic, more of a gradual shift.

And that is what I'd want a return to. Batman who is brooding and tortured in his own way, but not one who's destructive as far as sabotaging his relationships. One who could still be a mentally healthy adult in a lot of ways.

As an aside, its interesting to think this was the batman Alan Moore was probably thinking of when writing TKJ, not the post-Frank Miller imitation one that became prevalent. I think that makes it a more powerful story. When you read Moore's other works with Batman from the same time, its very much in line with the one from the pre-Miller era. That makes it so when he does seem to break in the end, its coming from the Batman that was openly friendly with Superman and law enforcement. The picture of the batfamily from the 50s drives that point home. Which is why I dislike the movie version making that Batman the callous one of the last 30 years. Moore wasn't writing that batman.

Do you wanna know why this movie is already some very real bullshit?

Color.

Instead of going with the over-the-top, ultra-saturated, pop-art qualities that Batman '66 features, they've gone with "standard, muddy DCAnimated palette"

Here, I've made it easy- compare the two images. I've sampled each of the same elements from the new cartoon & the 60's show.

Look at how horribly dull the animated adaptation is when compared to the original.

This is the exact same boring shit they pulled for DKR and The Killing Joke- they take an iconic classic, strip it of all it's artistry, and present the basic narrative to nerds because they don't know the difference.

Okay, but >>85797734 is not a critique.

It is a poorly conceived comparison that utiilzes the community-wide disdain of a given media property & meme humor to articulate a piss-poor thesis.

I do understand where you're coming from, but if you can't appreciate the humor of Batman 66, the perhaps you need to reassess your conception of what Batman is.

Except the show wasn't being campy or silly on purpose, at least not in the first season. They were playing it very straight, and trying to recreate the comic page for the screen.

No it did not, lets hope they fire Timm and bring back Tom Ruegger.
