Who would play a good Adam West-style Batman in a modern reboot?

Hamm jumps to mind, naturally, but I'm sure there are better options out there who aren't pushing 50.

I like Hamm in general but his comedic stuff seems a little too in on the joke. West was like Leslie Nielsen, his Batman was done so straight.

Yeah, I don't see the problem. The movie clearly seems to be doing '90s Fincher, so why not pull in Zodiac?

The Cameo posted:

Considering Returns made less money than 89, the clear direction the studio was demanding was �more Nicholson, less DeVito� with the villains, leading to both of them going �oh, Christmas ham levels of scenery chewing, got it�

I�m guessing merch sales for having two villains was better in the end than for having just one, which is how we ended up with a villain tag team again. Split the difference sort of stuff, have multiple villains but don�t, y�know, give six year olds nightmares about a flipper man who lives in the sewers with a clown gang coming to kidnap them because they�re first borns

I did love Returns as a kid, burned out the VHS and was so creeped out by Penguin. A+ movie
