Batman Returns (1992)

Time Button strikes again. Did this invent the term "Batman Syndrome"? I've seen silent movies with more color than this. Burnon is given some freedom with this one, but he doesn't do anything impressive with it. Slightly cooler story. + points for Walken (always good).

I like Burtons revisionist version of The Penguin, played magnificently by Danny DeVito and his Catwoman works in that world as well. It's not hard to see Tim Burton in his Batman films, which I admire. People rag on his style never changing but I like that he has his own vision.

Keaton returns to face a villain you laugh at and respect at the same time (the amazing DeVito). While this movie didn't live up to its predecessor, Burton did a good job at bringing us into his vision of what Gotham would be like. Also, Christopher Walken!
