Tim Burton's Batman Turns 34 Years Old Today

 


With Michael Keaton back as Batman in theaters thanks to "The Flash", it's also time to celebrate yet another anniversary in the film that got him started as the Caped Crusader in the first place - Tim Burton's Batman!

Released in cinemas on June 23, 1989, "Batman" was literally a game changer in the superhero movie genre as much as it was bringing the character back to his darker roots. Featuring an all-star cast headlined by Jack Nicholson as The Joker, Keaton as Bruce Wayne/ Batman, and Kim Basinger as Vicky Vale, this film is a must watch and something that fans of The Dark Knight absolutely need to see. In fact it was because of this film and 1992's Batman Returns that made Michael Keaton such an iconic choice to play the DC Comics superhero, and his return in The Flash this year marks the first time in over thirty years he plays the character again - and he's still got it!
