    You might be a fan of Christian Bale, Michael Keaton, or even Ben Affleck, but if you ask anyone, “Who was the original Batman?” they would most likely say, “Adam West.” The classic ABC series, Batman that ran from 1966 to 1968, was the first major exposure that many people had to the pteropine vigilante and his brightly garbed cohort, Robin. It had cheesy dialogue, used the cheapest of special effects, and is extremely dated. However, all of those things are part of what fans love about the show to this day. People still enjoy the 1960’s Batman for its goofy, campy, and “so bad it’s good” qualities. For these reasons, Warner Bros. Animation and DC Entertainment came together to create a new crime-fighting adventure for the Dynamic Duo for the modern age. On October 6, Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders will premiere at New York Comic Con. The straight-to-video animated feature harkens back to the madcap antics that made the classic show so beloved. Also, the two stars from the original show - Adam West and Burt Ward – lend their voices to their iconic roles as Batman and Robin, respectively,…

    What caught my eye the most was a scene in Batman Begins where Bruce and Alfred are speaking on the plane, Bruce says “People meed dramatic examples to shake them out of apathy and I cants do that as Bruce Wayne. As a man, I am flesh an blood; I can be ignored or destroyed. But as a symbol I can be incorruptible, I can be everlasting” by being a symbol, batman is everlasting. And as a symbol its not about who you are, but the actions you make, its about what you have done and what you stand for in the end. Christopher Nolan uses Batman as that dramatic example you can change the world, all it takes one person and it truly can be anyone. In the trilogy, Bruce Wayne creates as well as becomes that symbol that Batman stands for. Christopher Nolan successfully made batman a symbol so that he cannot be incorruptible and with that his legacy continues to be everlasting.…
