Batman (1989) was the first PG-13 movie the boys ever saw, and boy, was it a great one. Directed by Tim Burton and staring Jack Nicholson, Michael Keaton, Kim Basinger, Robert Wuhl, Billy Dee Williams and Jack Palance, with music by Prince and Danny Elfman, it was a smash hit beyond Warner Bros.’ wildest dreams.
In 2022, it’s hard to imagine a world where super hero movies aren’t insanely popular, but before Batman came out it was expected to be a massive bomb. All it did was become the biggest blockbuster of 1989 and usher in new paradigm of comic book movies with a unique and fresh take on the genre.
