Agreed on the 89 batsuit being the best, apart from the black it was closest to the comic design, it was armour but also looked like it could be the physique. Nolans Batman costumes look ridiculous, part power ranger, part kids party outfit
Tim Burton probably did that movie better better than anyone could have. The casting choices were superb. Danny Elfman's score was amazing. But, one of his best moves was hiring Anton Furst to design Gotham City and the Batmobile. Warner Brothers was so protective of that car that they had an entire legal team on hand to pursue unauthorized replicas after a set of the original fiberglass molds was stolen from the WB lot. They also made a point to keep the patent active by sporadically using the car in other WB movies and television commercials.
Keaton offered $250 K for the car after completion of the first film, but WB declined. David Copperfield was able to buy "a" Batmobile years later for around $90 K, but it wasn't the one actively used in the films. I believe it may have been a stripped down stunt car, or one used for promotional work; I can't remember.
Then, Joel Shumacher was handed the Batman legacy and fukked it up the asshole as hard as he could in every conceivable way.
