New Batman Trailer Using Stars from 1966 TV Show

[Teasing the Korean]

This is HILARIOUS.

 

[Dub Modal]

Well done 

[Eric]

Love it!!

[JSngry]

Would that that was the movie they were actually making. This "serious cartoon" shit left me behind a few decades ago.

[jazzbo]

Oy. I may be in the minority. . . I have zero love for Adam West Batman.

[JSngry]

It's not him, it's Alan Napier's Alfred 

[jazzbo]

I just hate the entire show.

[JSngry]

Otto Preminger as Mr. Freeze. It gets no better.

Except...seeing Madge Blake as Aunt Harriet, and realizing that Flora MacMichael thing was all just a ruse, she and her brother George were out there to train Bruce to be Batman, like Jesus had to go into the wilderness to come back as JESUS. Bruce had to go to sunny Cal-I-For-nee-A to come back as BATMAN.

I thnk that Hassie ws underconsideration to come back as Batgirl, but the poor thing was just a little too attitudinal.

Pepino could have been Robin, but the times were not right for bilingual super heroes on TV shows.

[jazzbo]

I am glad you enjoy it. To me it's an insult. Even as a kid, when I saw a few episodes before we went to Ethiopia I was like "WTF."

[JSngry]

Well, in Ethiopia it would have been in Spanish. That's where they could have used Pepino as Robin.

[jazzbo]

Um no. In Ethiopia if it was broadcast at all--it wasn't--it would have been in English with Amharic subtitles, or overdubbed in Amharic. But there was very little TV broadcast and it did not include many American shows. I think in the over two years we were in Addis Ababa I watched about four hours of TV. There was not one in the home.

I'm not finding the exchange funny so I'm out.

[JSngry]

Spanish is spoken everywhere.

[jazzbo]

No, that's not true.

[JSngry]

I guarantee you that for Spanish (ie - univisioneral) language Batman, Pepino would have been a better Robin.

But then, we'd never have this gem:

 

[JSngry]

Hmmm...it says there is jazz. I think Robin Jazz might be cool.
