I was 5 when this came out. I'll never forget the hype for this movie. Seriously, since 89 I haven't seen anything like it. Best movie experience of my childhood
I was 15, and we had a Taco Bell just down the road from me, and they decked out the restaurant with posters and such for Batman. The movie was insanely popular that year (well, at least it was well hyped if nothing else, I don't know if it grossed the most).
I had those cups at one point till the images faded completely on all of them and I threw them out. Still, they were pretty cool looking and I got a lot of mileage out of them.
One of my favorite childhood memories...my family was lower middle class. Dad worked all the time and we didn't get to see him often as he had to provide but he took the day off when Batman came out because me and him both commonly were fans of the character and had talked about this movie for months...we went to taco bell and got the cubs and had a great taco dinner, before meeting my uncle and cousin at the packed house theater and just got lost in what was then the ultimate superhero film. Great movie shared with great family. I hope Tim burton and Michael Keaton knows how many incredible memories they created for thousands of people!
I think it was even more popular than now because it was the first time A batman movie ever came out, people were literally paying to go see a movie watch the batman trailer and leave!
I saw the trailer for movie the first time in front of Indiana Jones and the last crusade and I was not going to leave after the movie trailer because I was waiting five years to see Indy since temple doom came out in 84.
I remember those cinnamon twists, quite tasty! I also remember the orange and vanilla twist cones at McDonalds with the Dick Tracy tie-in, perhaps a year later. Extra points if you remember Batman, Ghostbusters and Nintendo cereal.
I came to love Mexican food for the first time in my life thanks to Taco Bell; back then, just like you said. But after the 2000s, the franchise just went down the toilet. I remember I got such bad food poisoning from Taco Bell about 8 years ago that I never wanted to try it again.
Julio Mateo pizza hut gave me food poisoning too. I really think it has to do with the specific store, and emoyees handling the food, also quality kept.
@Johnlindsey289 Oh yeah! unfortunately I missed returns in the theater, but I wish I hadn't. Me and my brother had the toys, the T-shirts, the cards, "remember those?" I was crazy about the 90's cartoon and even the Adam West TV series. I still watch reruns of it on the hub. But back to the '89 movie, I loved it so much I even had a Joker poster on my wall.

It lived up to the hype. None of the Marvel movies have made the same impression on me, in fact most Marvel movies are terrible.
Mine too. My dad took my brother and to Taco Bell and then to see Batman after because it was right next to the Malco Trio Theater. GREAT MEMORIES!!!!
I was 9 and it was my very first time getting TB, I even had that cup.
Plus this was the introduction of TB's cinnamon twists.
"Where did he get those wonderful cups"?
I found one of those cups at the thrift store, nostalgia!

Maybe from repeatedly washing and scrubbing the cups the images came off
Yup same here

I was 12! The hype for this movie was so crazy . That’s all everyone at school was talking about. I miss these days!

You'll rarely see that kind if hype. It took the Marvel franchise a decade to reach that kind of notoriety
Well the 89 batman movie caused the second batmania and basically aaved the comic book industry.
I saw the trailer for movie the first time in front of Indiana Jones and the last crusade and I was not going to leave after the movie trailer because I was waiting five years to see Indy since temple doom came out in 84.
Does this offer still stand?
While supplies last, so go ask your local Taco Bell if they have any left.
Best batman movie.
"HOLY AZTEC TWO STEP BATMAN!"

AWESOME 80S TACO BELL COMMERCIAL !!!!!!

Those cups look so cool I want so bad 😅
God I miss the 80s. Such a great time to be a little kid.

I was 7 when I had those cups
Ha I remember those cups!! I was dying for one of those cups when Batman came out.
i sure wish that taco bell could also be in new zealand
I want you to tell all your friends about me.
I'm Batman!
I vaguely remember this, and I had one of these cups.
@Johnlindsey289 Personally, I liked the Batwing cup.
Hey they have Batman 1989 cups at Taco Bell but that is the year before I was born!
i want that.
Ooh cups
Batman Cups From Taco Bell!
Batman: I want you to tell all your friends about me!
I'm Batman!
oh most definitely! I can't wait for dark knight rises.
the dark knight rises was garbage
I still have one of those cups.
I had all four cups
I wonder if Batman & Robin had a Mr. Freeze Slushee cup?
I used my father's cup for crayons back in the day. Collectors reading this are cringing right now, heck I am now just thinking about it now. lol
