The 1989 version of Batman. The hype was huge. You couldn’t move without seeing marketing for it. And it was one of the most successful comic book movies ever made, certainly one of the better DC movies.
> In the months before Batman's release in June 1989, a popular culture phenomenon known as "Batmania" began. Over $750 million worth of merchandise was sold
one of the top movies ever, unfortunately the sequels were really bad (Batman returns is still ok) until The Dark Knight come out, which is as good or better.
