THE COMPLETE 14 "BATMAN" WINDOW CAMEOS . . . . I JUST RIPPED IT FROM G.E.F's "WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE ?" BLOG . . . . HE TOOK IT FROM "BOING BOING" . . . . AND THEY SWIPED IT FROM "LOOMYAIRE" WHO PUT THE SHIT TOGETHER IN THE FIRST PLACE . . . .



I guess this will be of more interest to folks my age or from mid-late thirties up, unless you're one of the blessed sixties pop culture geeks out there . . . . coming across this only minutes ago was like finding the entrance to Shangri-la . . . . I figured out most of these classic, deadpan, dry as a Nun's whatsit cameos a long time ago . . . . but there were several that had always eluded me . . . . now, now dear friends, I can sleep at night, my search is at an end, yea verily, for I am sated . . . . Holy "give the game away Batman !!!!"

  1. Welp, just like everything else from that era that seemed so campy and dorky, it can never be redone or duplicated..it was PERFECT, for some reason that we can't seem to finger; over-acting, ridiculously delivered lines that blurred real sarcasm with trying to convey the story no one believed in, etc..but it worked.

    Proof? try to watch ANY remake of a 60s movie, and, despite life-like technology, you end up with a video version that Alyssa Milano chick...pretty on the outside, empty and pointless on the inside; barely worth the time you give it (I honestly can't think of many newer movies I've actually stuck with through the end...). Visual and audio technology seems to have stripped up of our creativity and story lines.

    "Planet of the Apes" would be my favorite example....or even BATMAN! What was the plot of the last Batman movie? Who was in it? Dunno, but I can tell you who MOST of the villains were from the series, as well as the actor who played them.

    And Christian Bale? Sorry, gravel throat. Adam West was the MAN, no fake abs, Shakespearean voice, neoprene headgear with chalked on eyebrows..FREAK. Only thing Christian ever did right was get caught up in a fight with Heath Ledger, the only REAL modern villain worth even mentioning. I don't care WHY, I just want him to be EVIL. No one every thoroughly explained why Egghead fucked with the DD..he just did.

    Style, baby...it's all about style.

    Now, where's my meds? I forgot the topic.

    1. Brilliant Ass Man . . . with you 110% . . . all the remakes of classic sixties and seventies shows have turned out to be all about surface and no substance whatsoever . . . big bucks and state of the art effects do not a great movie make . . . style and soul baby, style and soul. Hope the meds were good, could be that we're on the same shit.
