Side by Side: Burton Vs. Nolan
Welcome to our new series Side by Side where we dissect the differences between the original and the reboot or remake. This is our first installment, and it's about Batman.
In my lifetime, seven live action Batman movies have hit theaters nationwide. Five of them really captured my imagination and the feel of the comics. Two of them had Bane, Catwoman, and the Joker. Three of these films had Dr. Jonathan Crane aka the Scarecrow. The five Batman films that really captured my imagination and somewhat captured Batman properly are Tim Burton's two Batman films and Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy.

The 12 Days of Batman Returns
Upon day 9 we bring a nice helping of Batman, Tim Burton Style. Now I know everyone loves the Nolan films (including myself) but I love Batman Returns, as well as Burton's first venture into comics 1989's Batman. If not for these movies we wouldn't have gotten the excellent Bruce Timm Batman: The Animated series. That show as well the X-Men animated series from the 90's got me into comics, so I must be thankful for it.
