Hot Toys DX09 - BATMAN - Batman (Michael Keaton) - Specs & Pics

Why are the Nolan fanboys still trolling the '89 thread? You have like 300 other threads you can high-five in.

Y'know, it is possible to heavily criticise a movie's direction, plot, and even casting, and still be a huge fan of the visual aspect of it's production design, including 1/6 representations of the actors in costume.

Psst...I'm also a fanboy of a lot of Batman '89s design.

I'm not a Nolan fanboy. I'm a Batman '89 Fanman.

So why even bring up Nolan though? Whether or not you like '89, sure sounds like you're shaking your BB/TDK pompoms to me.

The discussion naturally evolved to comparing Burton's take on Batman to Nolan's---I didn't "bring up Nolan", but I definitely, and gladly, participated. What's the problem with that?

Well, there's a lot of Nolan Batman threads in the DC section, but you almost never find any comparisons to 89 Batman in any of them (maybe just a few, but not to this extent). It's only in this thread, and the Jack Nicholson Joker thread. That's really the main reason why I haven't been posting. It seems like there can't be a single page in this thread without someone arguing about Nolan's Batman and why it's better than Burton's (or vice versa). It's getting lame .

I just went where one of the discussions on this thread took me. I put in my opinion and supporting points, and other's put in theirs and their supporting points and there was a lot of back and forth especially between me and DiFabio. It's a really interesting discussion for me (and I suspect, others) to compare the 80s-90s Batman movie series to the current one, and I'll never back down from a respectful debate/discussion that interests me. But, I'm also purposely not getting personal about it, because I've seen how quickly and easily that happens on these boards.

The thought has crossed my mind

I already sacrificed the intimidating OC Ex so that I could own 2 Keaton's, why not his skinny other half.

Nah, 2 Keaton's is good enough, the wimpy Batman can remain on my shelf.

!989 Batman deserves the spotlight again. Its gonna be shortlived as it is what with TDKR around the corner.

I'll support it if it puts money towards my 89 Batman and Joker.

If you need money to fund this purchase, and this figure means more to you than DX02 then I say sell it, but if you can afford to keep it, why not keep it. DX02 is awesome.
