89 bats may be the only one that made YOU and your friends give a damn...but the 7 billion dollars spent on tickets for marvel, the 4 billion spent on spider-man, the 2.4 billion on xmen all say your "period" statement is wrong. Just becuase it effected you that way doesn't mean it did others. There are billions of people on the planet who either where not alive or to young to even remember 89 batman, and those people grew up with other films having that effect.
People need to stop acting like their life experience is the same as everyone else. Just becuase you like it, doesn't mean everyone else did. And just becuase you didn't like it, doesn't mean others feel the same. For multiple generations Nolans batman has infinite for meaning then 89 batman. And the only way to gauge actual audience connection is tickets and merchandise sales. And two out of the three Nolan batman films DESTROY 89 batman in that regard. Yes, it's in part to a more connected world. Social media and 24 hour news cycles. But that doesn't change the fact that your claim is just wrong. I know i prefer Nolans batman to burtons. And I went to the theater to watch burtons. But in 1989 and the 1990s being a comic book fan was still counter culture. It wasn't main stream. Being a geek was not cool. And now super heroes are main stream. They actually drive pop culture. So movies now connect with a bigger audience and have a bigger effect then they did in 1989. Sorry to ruin your world view with actual facts, but outside of your own life absolutely nothing supports your argument that 89 batman is the only movie to (cbm) to connect with audiences. In fact I'd say it's effect on audiences compared to avengers and tdk and the tdkr and so on is minor. It didn't change anything. If it had "connected" in the way you claim it wouldn't have taken nearly 20 years before another movie actually did connect with audiences and make comic book movies the focus of theater not an after thought.
As for your point that dudes in rubber suits don't actually exist-maybe not to the batman level, yet, but there are hundreds of men and women that put on costumes and actually do some of that stuff. So on that point , the crack you made about how people don't wear rubber suits, ever..your wrong again. Happens every day in dozens of countries. It's like you live in a bubble and everything in your little world is everything that happens everywhere. Might want to stop living in the past and get out of the house a bit. Read a book. Watch the news. You seem upset about everything, in that "get off my lawn" type of way.

Anyone think that this is still coming? Does anyone think Hot Toys will make any more Bale/Nolanverse Batman figures?
I would pass on this. I liked TDK armory better anyway. We do need a Fox and Ras to be released though.
