Been on a Batman kick recently so I was wondering what is your favourite adaptation of the 20th century out of, Adam West, the Burton movies or the DCAU.
For those unfamiliar the DCAU stands for DC animated universe. It begun with the classic Batman the animated series, and included the New Batman Adventures, Batman Beyond (set 50 years in the future when an elderly Bruce Wayne trains Terry McGuinnes to be the new Batman.) Superman the animated series, Static Shock, and finally the two Justice League series which were set before Batman Beyond.
I'm going to say the DCAU. I think it combined both the camp and the darker elements really well. Also Mark Hamill who voiced the Joker was perfect. Its hard to believe he was the same man who played Luke Skywalker.
That's what you call a versatile talent! It always annoys me when people try and make out that he did nothing after Star Wars. He gave us arguably the best ever interpretation of one of the most iconic villains of all time over a span of 20 years!
I do love the Burton movies and Adam West too. I love the dark comedy in the Burton movies. This bit always cracks me up.
Adam West's Batman was a comedy genuis meanwhile. He is sorely missed.
