Tim Burton’s 1989 Batman movie starring Micheal Keaton was an absolute worldwide phenomenon, so naturally just a few years later a sequel was made. Not only did Keaton return as Bruce Wayne, but he was joined by Danny Devito as the Penguin and Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman in what would become iconic portrayals of the characters.
Batman Returns definitely raises a few questions though. Like if you get rescued by an animal, do you automatically take on its characteristics? Did Max Shreck not clean up after pushing Selina Kyle out of his office window? Why is Batman so thrilled to be killing bad guys, and why did he rip his mask off? How was nobody supsicious of Penguin instantly bringing a baby out of a sewer on a mechanical lift?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to Batman Returns! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

Who would have thought that dumb stuff like putting the bad guy as a mayer happened in real life, the US put a terrorist as a mayer. Like bro, we truned comic book dumb but without the heroes. We're cooked. 🤣

This movie also has the best theme song with Siouxsie and The Banshees "Face to Face written by Danny Elfman. It is playing at the ball when Bruce and Selena are about to kiss, but Penguin explodes through the floor on his giant rubber ducky.

I never realized how dark that movie was.
And nonsensical.

Possibly my least favorite Batman movie. Seeing Catwoman lick herself just turns me off from live action movies in general.

3:41 I wish you had mentioned that Penguin is a horndog and Shreck promises “unlimited poontang” as the mayor. Just, wow.

This is one of my all time favorite movies, but Producer Guy is right that it's kind of a fever dream.

I love these meetings for older movies, I hope you make more of those.

There are times when Penguin has just thumb, index and then flipper-thing, and others where he has normal hands… I only noticed that during this Pitch Meeting 😅
