Hilarious! Fantastic! I grew up on Batman, the tv show, too. Can we have an award just for this video? Thank you to the makers, this was the best YouTube video ever.

To Will:

Thanks for joining us. Some astute observations there.

It's great to see the different faces of Batman, from the cheesy cartoonish image to the angsty dark knight. I love both! This reminded me of how hot Adam West and Burt Ward were. Thank you, internet! And thanks to all the artists out there with "too much time on their hands."

This is awesome!

AMAZING...!!! LOVED IT...

It started to drag a bit toward the end. But overall really clever, even though the person who did this clearly has way too much time on their hands.

Cheesy, but funny.

Awesome, I love the part where the new Joker says "like me!" and they have the original on the TV screen, hilarious!

Pretty lame. Half the fun of the Adam West Batman was the cheesy dialogue. This just uses the exact audio of the Dark Knight trailer with random clips from the AW Batman movie.

I grew up on the old show. I knew it was cheesy when I was little. But I still loved it. This trailer is genius!

Although I'm a big fan of the original Batman series, and am inclined to see the Dark Knight,even prior to this new "commercial" not everyone can appreciate "camp".
