I'm speaking from an artistic, not financial, perspective; Batman will sell once if bad, twice if okay, thrice if good, and a million times if breathtaking. But all I want is breathtaking Batman; I want the Dark Knight to surprise me, to sweep my off my feet.
Maybe we should leave that job up to Heath Ledger's image and his ghost. Let him have the last laugh on the movie screen.
As for the show, I agree with Kevin; I loved watching The Batman, but it was not Batman: The Animated Series. Kevin Michael Richardson is not Mark Hamill (both voiced the Joker on each respective show). And yet The Batman used their Joker frequently, to the point that he irked fans.
Maybe we should learn a lesson from that. And so should the film producers.
