Batman: The Movie, 1966 Trailer

Steve Osborne at The Reel Image has a new and improved version of the trailer for the 1966 movie, "Batman: The Movie". This is from a German negative and has a bit of German on the title card, but audio is in English.
Color is great, print is sharp, and sound is good. Here are some pics I took recently....

I have this trailer also. It is action packed, colorful and fun. I took one screen grab while screening it. I have watched it about 5 times already!

Can't remember if I ever saw the movie, but used to watch the TV series every week as a kid, the Riddler, the Joker, Mr Freeze. Wooworths sold plastic figures of Batman and Robin.

Robert,

Yes, this was a classic TV show for kids growing up in the 1960's in the US as well. It was campy, but fun nonetheless...Lots of actors were very interested in appearing in the show as criminals, and many did including:
Milton Berle, Carolyn Jones, Joan Collins, Liberace, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Eli Wallach, Cesar Romero, Burgess Meredith, Julie Newmar, Eartha Kitt, Frank Gorshin, Vincent Price,
Victor Buono, Ida Lupino, Tallulah Bankhead, Roddy McDowell, Art Carney, Ethel Merman....

I didn't realise all those actors had appeared in the series. Some of the names brought back memories. It was compulsive viewing for us kids. Someone brought out models of the Batmobile. Mr Freeze was played by George Sanders. Frank Gorshin was also well known for his Jimmy Cagney impression.
