The Bat Movies

Cool that you know a writer @MovieGal

Do you have a reason you think I should have known about them?

Lol I know many comic writer and artists...if you are referring to cat's comment.. I'm the horror writer

KeyserCorleone, you're surely welcome to post about them in here if you want.

According to those on set, Vincent Price started throwing eggs at Adam West during the filming of one of the episodes. When he was asked to stop he laughed, "With a full arsenal? Not a chance!"

Nostro there was a lot of famous people in the old Batman show... you didn't know this?

Saw re-runs of the old show at some point yearrrrrrrrz ago as a kid, too long for it to be familiar. Vincent Price's great, enjoy his Corman films.

My favorite Vincent Price movie is Dragonwyck.

Sure, acclaimed Austrian film director Otto Preminger, man behind such cinema classics as Laura, Anatomy of a Murder and Bunny Lake is Missing, of course you can play Mr. Freeze.



P.S. I want the next Batman movie to pick of the trend and bring back Egghead and this Freeze played by Christoph Waltz and Werner Herzog, respectively.

Terrific guy. So that's one of his younger roles. I'd say my favorite of his is The Haunted Palace (1963), in which Lon Chaney Jr also appears. Oh, and it's set in a town called Arkham. Ha! It actually fits here somehow, it's like I get lucky on these associations. And worth a note for any passing readers that the concept of Arkham came from H.P. Lovecraft's short story "The Case of Charles Dexter Ward." I don't know a lot about the Price film you mentioned, but I briefly read some rundown on it just now since you made the mention. Here's a sneak-peak trailer and my image assemblage from Roger Corman's mash-up flick of Edgar Allen Poe and H.P. Lovecraft writings.

Mine is mask of the red death

I've got my own reviews thread and I'm not stealing your thunder.

Dragonwyck is considered a gothic horror...which is one of the subgenres I enjoy.

I have a huge mural poster in my living room of Tomb of Ligeia. Poe done by Corman, starring Price.

Gotta know Vincent Price is The Man when he carjacks dialogue of an entire film franchise.

Observers gliding by may've suggested we remain off topic, as the time for the next film's turned up. @cat_sidhe and me turn our separate gaze Today / Tonight to the oft-trashed, thoroughly eviscerated, universally hammered,

Only got to watch the first half of the flick before my shift started tonight, but so far- formidable cinematic craftsmanship by the godlike Joel Schumacher. In the meantime, promotion for the thread's Batshop.

Hey @cat_sidhe , did you watch all 3 flicks you told me about for your movie marathon yesterday?

I have seen most of the Batman movies but I always enjoyed the Batman Animated Series.



and I have read Batman Year One comics on two of my favorite Villians.





and Yes, I watch "Gotham"



My favorite characters on the show - Ed Nygma, Penguin, Selina, Ra's Al Ghul, Jonathan Crane and Jerome. I think it was a smart move to use Alexander Siddig as Ra's Al Ghul. Alexander is an amazing actor.

And I have a few action figures of Scarecrow.

However, I am more a Marvel Comics fan than I am a DC Comics Fan.

I passed out half way, but woke up in a Batman T-shirt and no pants so it must have gone well. I'll start again from the half way mark when I get home.

We BOTH only watched half so far,
