I think it did so well because everyone knew the campy "POW" "BIFF" crap from the TV show (which I liked as a kid) and this was Batman as he should be.
The Schumacher "bright colors" and lots of stupid dialogue bullshit they did to the later ones along with some shitty writing took it right back to campy. Nolan brought it back to a better Batman. |

I've always said Michael Keaton was the best Batman. Just something about the lines and the way he said them and the expressions on his face as Bruce Wayne.
My favorite Batman movie. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I liked Keaton as Batman. I think the Batman Returns is also good because it doesn't have the Joker and it has Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman. Danny Devito was an excellent Penguin................had they costumed him more like Burgess Meredith and less like a mutant, he would have been even better |

The 1989 version was awesome, and came out when I was a kid so it does hold a special place in my little kid psyche.
But the Dark Knight Trilogy was also awesome. They are different enough to me that they can be viewed as equals. In a similar vein, the Jokers in the original, Dark Knight, and the stand alone Joker were all excellent, and all different. As long as we can all agree that George Clooney and Ben Affleck were both terrible as Batman. |

The 1989 version was a product of its time. I don't find that it's aged well. It was less campy than the TV series, but it was still high camp. By far, the best Joker was Heath.

I just watched it for the first time in years.
It holds up very well. I agree that it's probably the best. Keaton plays the slightly awkward billionaire perfectly. Plus, it has the best Batmobile
