The 1966 Batman Message Board

The Green Hornet topic posted newly unearthed interview footage with Bruce Lee and while watching that I noticed the same interviewee also interviewed Adam West in full Batman costume in 1966. It begins with short behind-the-scenes footage. It’s amazing footage like this turns up. There’s also Leona...

I don’t read current Batman comics but apparently the new movies are influenced by them. In that sense, why stop making movies when they are representing today’s Batman? No one is claiming that they’re trying to update “our” Batman—they’re simply staying within the present times. The Nolan films are...

Very cool. Was the shrubbery around the entrance added just for the TV show or has it died off in the ensuing years? It looked very real in 1966.

Are the Tracy strips from ‘66?

I look forward to checking it out.

I thought Two Face was Dick Van Dyke, too, but do see Robert Wagner now that it’s been mentioned.

As for Ann Margaret, she did do The Flintstones so doing TV certainly wasn’t out of the realm of possibility.

There are some scripts available for purchase as digital pdf files (they get sent to you by e-mail) from www.scriptcity.com. I also have uploaded my own personal scan of S1 "Fine Finny Fiends" (which is not available from Script City) https://www.dropbox.com/s/gj47xqs8r3s6ibu/Fine%20Finny%20Fiends....

Right up front I'll say I'm not at all interested in this film. I'm sick and tired of Hollywood constantly trying to reinvent the wheel when it comes to Batman and other comic heroes. :roll: https://vimeo.com/391277390 I'm out. Another all black, all armored Batman with a cheesy batarang clipped to...

Ads for the 1966 Gleem promotion indicate that, “On Thursday, October 20 on the Batman show, Batman will show the winning cards”...meaning ‘action scenes’ that were given away at Gleem toothpaste displays at stores. Does anyone recall this promotion? Was Adam West actually filmed as Batman showing t...

Captain Action Batman for me too. I remember as a kid staring at the CA ads in the comics wishing I had one. I was born the year they were released but in the early’70s had access to several comics from ‘66 and ‘67 that featured the ads. My current one is my second one; I, too, sold my first one and...

The actor does a really nice job with it. It’s obvious he studied Adam West’s moves.

Are there others available? If so, please PM me too. Thanks.

I use Any Video Converter. It comes highly praised and is easy to use. I know many of the free converters do have malware attached but I haven’t had any problems after downloading the Any Video Converter. Per Wiki: The free version of AVC is ad-supported.[12] While it does not appear to contain malw...

I’m going to try to get an MP3 of it and add it to my TV show soundtrack CD that I keep in my car. It’s fantastic!

How would you do that? Were you successful?

There are dozens of free online YouTube to mp3 converters. I saved both the short and long versions.

Thanks for the link, Andy. That collection is absolutely INSANE. I thought I’d seen it all and there’s countless items I didn't have an idea existed. Amazing.
