Phenomenal artistry and problem solving combine to deliver seamless work. I love the old matte painting composites, there’s something undeniably unrealistic about them, but so, so satisfying on the eye. Whilst Furst’s overall production design from the first is superior, that opening establishing shot of Gotham, snow falling as the Cobblepots walk below, is beautiful. It says so much about the world this film is set in: decaying decadence.
If there's a thing I genuinely dislike of the film is how at the end they blatantly show that Catwoman survived... I wish they kept her fate more ambiguous.
***** The fact Bruce didn't find her body was already a given if you ask me. That shadow Bruce glimpses in the alley was also good because it could either be her or a Red Triangle member escaping.
Batman Returns is actually my favorite 90's Batman. I mean, the script has a lot of problems, like the rocket penguins, for example, but the visuals are just perfect and amazing. I also think the first movie it's okay, but I hate that 80's look.
+SuperTurboForce The first movie has that art deco look, it looks like a real city. BR is like a blue nightmare from Tim Burton's mind, it's really different. Btw, Burton had a bigger creative control in the second movie.
@@TopGunnDTLA To be fair Superman: The Movie won an Academy Award for visual effects, and Batman '89 for Art Direction. Batman Returns did indeed lose out on an Oscar to Death Becomes Her, but going up against such a film, it didn't stand a chance.
That year changed my life.... Batman Returns ...Bram Stokers Dracula.... I was in love with my friends elder sister who was a clone of Michelle Pfiffer.... I saw Dracula next to her...shivering with electric eroticity ( no word ) between us...
That last shot is so iconic, well worth the effort.
Love the Keaton/Bruce Wayne afro from these films lol.
I wish I need to see this at the movie theater.

Why tho, that part always gave me chills..she survived, I can too..sort of speak.

80's?
***** And a big difference between the visuals.

There is no 80's movie that looks like Batman.
The first film was made in 1989
If they didn't win the Academy for Best Visual. Who did during that year?

Nolan and his vision of stark reality can take an icy walk in this Gotham night
Really cool
This is great and "sad" at the same time
why sad
I think he meant that the movie was very sad, melancholic.
Whatever happened at that encoding, not sure but 14-18 Khz hurts to listen to!! A great upload, wish my ears could've made it longer!
Bat Beacon! 🦇
Operatic Vaudevillian Gothic masterpiece
This. Is. Amazing.

so if they did make the animals real then that means they were the first film to make life like creatures 1 year before Jurassic Park
Don’t make them like this anymore :(
