Batdude is a popular guy. Here’s proof. I’ve painstakingly rounded up as many posters and/or promo materials as I could find on the web for the Batman theatrical movies, direct-to-video movies, live television shows, animated television shows and video games. It clocks in around 120+ images (hope you’re not Sandra Bullock in The Net because a 28K modem isn’t gonna cut it). From his early days in movie serials, to the unforgettable Adam West and his amazing Batmobile, to Keaton, Kilmer, Clooney, Conroy and Bale; The Batman has had remarkable staying power on both the big, little and more recently, video game screens. Times will undoubtedly change and Batman will too, but it’s nice to know he’s always gonna have our backs, us peons of Gotham City. When compiling, I used the Batman Wiki page as a reference for the titles and additional info along with a bit of regular ole Wikipedia. I’ve focused on the officially released materials (be it studio, game company, etc), not that there isn’t plenty of amazing Batman fan art, particularly with the rise of the Christopher Nolan films, but hey, a man’s gotta draw the line somewhere when putting together something of this magnitude. Without further ado, I invite you to take a walk through a visual history of Batman at the movies (and TV and in games). Enjoy. (Edit: If you know of a poster that’s missing let us know in the comments and we will add it to the master list. Thanks.)
